A 1kg dictionary is resting on a table that is 1.5m high. How much potential energy
does it have?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Potential energy = 14.7 Joules.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass, m = 1kg

Height, h = 1.5m

We know that acceleration due to gravity is equal to 9.8m/s²

Potential energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position.

Mathematically, potential energy is given by the formula;

[tex] P.E = mgh[/tex]

Where, P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.

m represents the mass of an object.

g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.

h represents the height measured in meters.

[tex] P.E = mgh[/tex]

Substituting into the equation, we have;

[tex] P.E = 1*9.8*1.5[/tex]

P.E = 14.7 Joules.

Car 2 and Car 3 are driving down the road at the same speed. Car 1, going 15 m/s, has just passed Car 2 and is approaching Car 3 when he sees Person A standing in front of him. The driver of Car 1 quickly honks his horn as a warning, but does not brake. At the moment that Car 1 honks his horn, Person B is riding his bicycle, behind, but in the same direction as Car 1 at 7 m/s. Which person hears the highest frequency from the horn?

Answers

Answer:

Person A

Explanation:

Person A hears the highest frequency from the horn than Person B because Person A is present in front of a Car 1 while the Person B present behind the Car 1. The car horn is present at the front so the Person A will hear the highest frequency from the horn as compared to Person B which hears lower frequency from the horn. If the horn is present at the back side so Person B will hear highest frequency from the horn.

In a physics lab experiment for the determination of moment of inertia, a team weighs an object and finds a mass of 4.67 kg. They then hang the object on a pivot located 0.180 m from the object's center of mass and set it swinging at a small amplitude. As two of the team members carefully count 129 cycles of oscillation, the third member measures a duration of 249 s. What is the moment of inertia of the object with respect to its center of mass about an axis parallel to the pivot axis

Answers

Answer:

The value is  [tex]I_o = 0.6257 \ kgm^2[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

   The mass of the object is  [tex]m = 4.67 \ kg[/tex]

   The position of the pivot from the center of the mass is  [tex]a = 0.180 \ m[/tex]

   The number of cycles of oscillation  is  [tex]n = 129 \ cycles[/tex]

     The time taken for the total oscillation is t =249 s

Generally the period of the oscillation is mathematically represented as

         [tex]T = \frac{t}{n}[/tex]

=>     [tex]T = \frac{249}{129}[/tex]

=>     [tex]T = 1.9302 \ s[/tex]

Generally the moment of inertia of the object about the end of the suspension  is mathematically represented as

    [tex]I =[ \frac{T}{2 \pi } ]^2 * [m* g * l ][/tex]

=> [tex]I =[ \frac{1.9302}{2 *3.142 } ]^2 * [4.67* 9.8 * 0.180 ][/tex]

=> [tex]I = 0.777 \ kg m^2[/tex]

Generally the moment of inertia of the object with respect to its center of mass about an axis parallel to the pivot axis is mathematically evaluated using the parallel axis theorem as

  =>     [tex]I_o = I- I_p[/tex]

Here  [tex]I_p[/tex] is parallel  axis contribution which is mathematically represented as

        [tex]I_p = m * l^2[/tex]

=>     [tex]I_p = 4.67 * 0.180^2[/tex]

=>     [tex]I_p = 0.1513 \ kg m^2[/tex]

So  

     [tex]I_o = I- I_p[/tex]

=>   [tex]I_o = 0.777 -0.1513[/tex]

=>   [tex]I_o = 0.6257 \ kgm^2[/tex]

identical spheres are dropped from a height of 100 m above the surfaces of Planet X and Planet Y. The speed of the spheres as a function of time is recorded for each planet in the graph
above. Which planet exerts the greater force of gravity on the sphere, and what evidence supports this conclusion?
A Planet X because its line has the greater area under it.
Planet X, because its line has the greater slope
Planet Y. because it falls for the smaller amount of time
Planet Y because the object's final speed is greater

Answers

Answer:

B. Planet X, because its line has the greater slope.

Explanation:

In a speed graph, acceleration is slope. A greater slope means a greater acceleration. According to Newton's 2nd law (F=mg), a greater acceleration means a greater force.

Planet X exerts the greater force of gravity on the sphere, because its line has the greater slope. Hence option B is correct.

What is Gravitational Force ?

Gravitational force is force of attraction between two masses. Gravitational force(F) between two bodies is directly proportion to the product of masses(m₁,m₂) of two bodies and inversely proportional to square of distance(r) between them. mathematically it is written as,

F ∝ m₁.m₂

F ∝ 1/r²

F = G m₁,m₂÷r²

where G is gravitational constant, whose value is 6.6743 × 10⁻¹¹ m³ kg-1s⁻².

Force is expressed in Newton N in SI unit. its dimensions are [M¹L¹T⁻²].

This is analogous with coulomb's law which gives force between two charges.

if a planet has greater gravitational force(force of gravity), then body falls with greater speed as compare to other planet which is having less force of gravity. we can see in case of planet X there is greater speed as compare to plane Y in short time. Hence option B is correct.

Answers

Answer:

The cantaloupe has a speed of 117.6 m/s

Explanation:

Free Fall Motion

It occurs when an object falls under the sole influence of gravity. Any object that is being acted upon solely by the force of gravity is said to be in a state of free fall. Free-falling objects do not face air resistance.

If an object is dropped from rest in a free-falling motion, it falls with a constant acceleration called the acceleration of gravity, which value is [tex]g = 9.8 m/s^2[/tex].

The final velocity of a free-falling object after a time t is given by:

vf=g.t

The cantaloupe has been dropped from rest. We are required to find the speed after t=12 seconds.

Calculate the final speed:

vf=9.8 * 12 = 117.6 m/s

The cantaloupe has a speed of 117.6 m/s

Since astronauts in orbit are apparently weightless, a clever method of measuring their masses is needed to monitor their mass gains or losses to adjust diets. One way to do this is to exert a known force on an astronaut and measure the acceleration produced. Suppose a net external force of magnitude 59.0 N is exerted and the magnitude of the astronaut's acceleration is measured to be 0.852 m/s2. Calculate her mass.

Answers

Answer:

The value is  [tex]m = 69.24 \ kg[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The value of the external force is  [tex]F = 59.0 \ N[/tex]

    The magnitude of the astronaut's acceleration is  [tex]a = 0.852 \ m/s[/tex]

Generally Newton's Second Law of Motion from the mass of the astronauts is mathematically represented as

            [tex]m = \frac{F}{a}[/tex]

=>         [tex]m = \frac{59 }{0.852 }[/tex]

=>         [tex]m = 69.24 \ kg[/tex]

A solid disk rotates in the horizontal plane at an angular velocity of 0.649 rpm with respect to an axis perpendicular to the disk at its center. The moment of inertia of the disk is 0.101 kg m2. From above, sand is dropped straight down onto this rotating disk, so that a thin uniform ring of sand is formed at a distance of 0.415 m from the axis. The sand in the ring has a mass of 0.499 kg. After all the sand is in place, what is the angular velocity of the disk

Answers

Answer:

The angular velocity of the disk is 0.0369 rad/sec.

Explanation:

Convert 0.649 rpm to rad/s

0.649 rpm = 0.649 * (2π/60) = 0.0679rad/sec

From the question,

Summation of final angular momentum equals summation of initial angular momentum

I*w = Io*wo

w = wo (lo/I)

But I = Isand + Io

and Isand = Msand * R²sand

Therefore, w = wo (lo/I) = wo (Io/Msand * R²sand + Io)

Where,

wo = 0.0679rad/sec

Io = 0.101 kg m2

Msand = 0.499 kg

Rsand = 0.415 m

Hence,

w = 0.0679 {0.101/(0.499*(0.415)²+0.101)}

w = 0.0679 (0.101/0.1869)

w = 0.0679*0.544 = 0.0369 rad/sec

The angular velocity of the disk is 0.0369 rad/sec.

Explain how polarization of a cell increases the cell's internal resistance.
(2
2.​

Answers

Answer:

Explanation: The chemical action that occurs in the cell while the current is flowing causes hydrogen bubbles to form on the surface of the anode. This action is called POLARIZATION. Some hydrogen bubbles rise to the surface of the electrolyte and escape into the air, some remain on the surface of the anode. If enough bubbles remain around the anode, the bubbles form a barrier that increases internal resistance. When the internal resistance of the cell increases, the output current is decreased and the voltage of the cell also decreases.

   A cell that is heavily polarized has no useful output. There are several methods to prevent polarization or to depolarize the cell.

   One method uses a vent on the cell to permit the hydrogen to escape into the air. A disadvantage of this method is that hydrogen is not available to reform into the electrolyte during recharging. This problem is solved by adding water to the electrolyte, such as in an automobile battery. A second method is to use material that is rich in oxygen, such as manganese dioxide, which supplies free oxygen to combine with the hydrogen and form water.

   A third method is to use a material that will absorb the hydrogen, such as calcium. The calcium releases hydrogen during the charging process. All three methods remove enough hydrogen so that the cell is practically free from polarization.

LOCAL ACTION

   When the external circuit is removed, the current ceases to flow, and, theoretically, all chemical action within the cell stops. However, commercial zinc contains many impurities, such as iron, carbon, lead, and arsenic. These impurities form many small electrical cells within the zinc electrode in which current flows between the zinc and its impurities. Thus, the chemical action continues even though the cell itself is not connected to a load.

   Local action may be prevented by using pure zinc (which is not practical), by coating the zinc with mercury, or by adding a small percentage of mercury to the zinc during the manufacturing process. The treatment of the zinc with mercury is called amalgamating (mixing) the zinc. Since mercury is many times heavier than an equal volume of water, small particles of impurities weighing less than mercury will float to the surface of the mercury. The removal of these impurities from the zinc prevents local action. The mercury is not readily acted upon by the acid. When the cell is delivering current to a load, the mercury continues to act on the impurities in the zinc. This causes the impurities to leave the surface of the zinc electrode and float to the surface of the mercury. This process greatly increases the storage life of the cell.

At the top ladder rests against a plastic rain gutter, which we can assume to be frictionless. The center of mass of the ladder is 2.0 m from the bottom. The person is standing 3.0 m from the bottom of ladder. What are the magnitudes of the forces on the ladder at the top and at the bottom

Answers

Answer:

 Fₓ = 123.8 N and     F_{y} = 0

Explanation:

This is a static balance exercise, to see the forces, see the attachment. In this W is the weight of the ladder and W1 the weight of the man.

locate a reference system at the bottom of the ladder with the horizontal x axis, it will assume that the counterclockwise turns are positive

         Σ τ = 0

          x  + Fₓ y - W₁ d₁ -W d₂ + N 0 + fr 0 = 0

   use trigonometry to find the distances

       cos θ = x / L

       θ = cos⁻¹ (x / L)

       θ = cos⁻¹ (2 / 6.82)

       θ = 72.9º

        in 72.9 = y / L

        y = L sin 72.9

        y = 6.82 sin 72.9

        y = 6.519 m

       

Center of mass ladder

        cos 72.9 = d₂ / 2

        d₂ = 2 cos 72.9 = 0.588 m

x coordinate of man

       cos 72.9 = d₁ / 3

       d₁ = 3 cos 72.9 = 0.882 m

we substitute

      2 + Fₓ 6.519 - W₁ 0.882 -W 0.588 = 0

   

as they indicate that the plastic basket has no friction

       F_{y} = 0

       Fₓ 6.519 - W₁ 0.882 -W 0.588 = 0

       Fₓ 6.519 = M₁ g 0.882 + m g 0.588

we calculate

         Fₓ = 85 9.8 0.882 + 12.6 9.8 0.588) / 6.519

         Fₓ = 123.8 N
