Suppose that the separation between two speakers A and B is 4.30 m and the speakers are vibrating in-phase. They are playing identical 103-Hz tones and the speed of sound is 343 m/s. An observer is seated at a position directly facing speaker B in such a way that his line of sight extending to B is perpendicular to the imaginary line between A and B. What is the largest possible distance between speaker B and the observer, such that he observes destructive interference

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The largest  possible distance is [tex]x = 4.720 \ m[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The distance of  separation is   [tex]d = 4.30 \ m[/tex]

      The  frequency of the tone played by both speakers is [tex]f = 103 \ Hz[/tex]

     The speed of sound is  [tex]v_s = 343 \ m/s[/tex]

The  wavelength of the tone played by the speaker is  mathematically evaluated as

              [tex]\lambda = \frac{v}{f}[/tex]

substituting values

            [tex]\lambda = \frac{343}{103}[/tex]

            [tex]\lambda = 3.33 \ m[/tex]

Let the the position of the observer be O

Given that the line of sight between observer and speaker B is  perpendicular to the distance between A and B then

        The distance between A and the observer is  mathematically evaluated using Pythagoras theorem as follows

               [tex]L = \sqrt{d^2 + x^2}[/tex]

Where x is the distance between the observer and B

  For the observer to observe destructive interference

          [tex]L - x = \frac{\lambda}{2}[/tex]

So  

          [tex]\sqrt{d^2 + x^2} - x = \frac{\lambda}{2}[/tex]

       [tex]\sqrt{d^2 + x^2} = \frac{\lambda}{2} +x[/tex]

        [tex]d^2 + x^2 = [\frac{\lambda}{2} +x]^2[/tex]

         [tex]d^2 + x^2 = [\frac{\lambda^2}{4} +2 * x * \frac{\lambda}{2} + x^2][/tex]

       [tex]d^2 = [\frac{\lambda^2}{4} +2 * x * \frac{\lambda}{2} ][/tex]

substituting values              

       [tex]4.30^2 = [\frac{3.33^2}{4} +2 * x * \frac{3.33}{2} ][/tex]

      [tex]x = 4.720 \ m[/tex]

iii2)

   [tex]f_3 =329.1 Hz[/tex]

iii3)

    [tex]f_4 =438.8 Hz[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The length of the string is  [tex]l = 0.65 \ m[/tex]

     The tension on the string is  [tex]T = 61 \ N[/tex]

     The mass per unit length is  [tex]m = 3.0 \ g/m = 3.0 * \frac{1}{1000} = 3 *10^{-3 } \ kg /m[/tex]

     

The speed of wave on the string is mathematically represented as

       [tex]v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{m} }[/tex]

substituting values

      [tex]v = \sqrt{\frac{61}{3*10^{-3}} }[/tex]

     [tex]v = 142.595 \ m/s[/tex]

generally the  string's  frequency is mathematically represented as

         [tex]f = \frac{nv}{2l}[/tex]

n = 1  given that the frequency we are to find is the fundamental frequency

So

      substituting values

       [tex]f = \frac{142.595 * 1 }{2 * 0.65}[/tex]

       [tex]f = 109.69 \ Hz[/tex]

The  frequencies at which the string would vibrate include

1       [tex]f_2 = 2 * f[/tex]

Here [tex]f_2[/tex] is  know as the second harmonic and the value is  

      [tex]f_2 = 2 * 109.69[/tex]

      [tex]f_2 =219.4 Hz[/tex]

[tex]f_3 = 3 * f[/tex]

Here [tex]f_3[/tex] is  know as the third harmonic and the value is

Two vehicles approach an intersection, a 2500kg pickup travels from E to W at 14.0m/s and a 1500kg car from S to N at 23.0m/s. Find P net of this system (direction and magnitude)

Answers

Answer:

The magnitude of the momentum is 49145.19 kg.m/s

The direction of the two vehicles is 44.6° North West

Explanation:

Given;

speed of first vehicle, v₁ = 14 m/s (East to west)

mass of first vehicle, m₁ = 1500 kg

speed of second vehicle, v₂ = 23 m/s (South to North)

momentum of the first vehicle in x-direction (E to W is in negative x-direction)

[tex]P_x = mv_x\\\\P_x = 2500kg(-14 \ m/s)\\\\P_x = -35000 \ kg.m/s[/tex]

momentum of the second vehicle in y-direction (S to N is in positive y-direction)

[tex]P_y = m_2v_y\\\\P_y = 1500kg(23 \ m/s)\\\\P_y = 34500 \ kg.m/s[/tex]

Magnitude of the momentum of the system;

[tex]P= \sqrt{P_x^2 + P_y^2} \\\\P = \sqrt{(-35000)^2+(34500)^2} \\\\P = 49145.19 \ kg.m/s[/tex]

Direction of the two vehicles;

[tex]tan \ \theta = \frac{P_y}{|P_x|} \\\\tan \ \theta = \frac{34500}{35000} \\\\tan \ \theta = 0.9857\\\\\theta = tan^{-1} (0.9857)\\\\\theta = 44.6^0[/tex]North West

Objects act differently in a gravity field than in an accelerating reference frame.

Answers

Answer:

Objects act differently in a gravity field than in an accelerating reference frame.

Explanation:

The main thrust of the theory general relativity as proposed by Albert Einstein boarders on space and time as the two fundamental aspects of spacetime. Spacetime is curved in the presence of gravity, matter, energy, and momentum. The theory of general relativity explains gravity based on the way space can 'curve', that is, it seeks to relate gravitational force to the changing geometry of space-time.

The Einstein general theory of relativity has replaced Newton's ideas proposed in earlier centuries as a means of predicting gravitational interactions. This concept is quite helpful but cannot be fitted into the context of quantum mechanics due to obvious incompatibilities.

A tightly wound toroid of inner radius 1.2 cm and outer radius 2.4 cm has 960 turns of wire and carries a current of 2.5 A.

Requried:
a. What is the magnetic field at a distance of 0.9 cm from the center?
b. What is the field 1.2 cm from the center?

Answers

Answer:

a

  [tex]B = 0.0533 \ T[/tex]

b

  [tex]B = 0.04 \ T[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The inner radius is [tex]r = 1.2 \ cm = 0.012 \ m[/tex]

   The  outer radius is  [tex]r_o = 2.4 \ cm = \frac{2.4}{100} = 0.024 \ m[/tex]

    The nu umber of turns is  [tex]N = 960[/tex]

    The current it is carrying is  [tex]I = 2. 5 A[/tex]

Generally the magnetic field is mathematically represented as

      [tex]B = \frac{\mu_o * N* I }{2 * \pi * r }[/tex]

Where  [tex]\mu_o[/tex] is the permeability of free space with a constant value    

            [tex]\mu = 4\pi * 10^{-7} N/A^2[/tex]

And the given distance where the magnetic field is felt is  r =  0.9 cm  =  0.009 m

Now  substituting values

     [tex]B = \frac{ 4\pi * 10^{-7} * 960* 2.5 }{2 * 3.142 * 0.009 }[/tex]

    [tex]B = 0.0533 \ T[/tex]

    Fro the second question the distance of the position considered from the center is  r =  1.2 cm  =  0.012 m

So the  magnetic field is  

        [tex]B = \frac{ 4\pi * 10^{-7} * 960* 2.5 }{2 * 3.142 * 0.012 }[/tex]

        [tex]B = 0.04 \ T[/tex]

The magnetic field at a distance of 0.9 cm from the center of the toroid is 0.053 T.

The magnetic field at a distance of 1.2 cm from the center of the toroid is 0.04 T.

The given parameters;

radius of the toroid, r = 1.2 cm = 0.012 mouter radius of the toroid, R = 2.4 cm = 0.024 mnumber of turns, N = 960 turnscurrent in wire, I = 2.5 A

The magnetic field at a distance of 0.9 cm from the center of the toroid is calculated as follows;

[tex]B = \frac{\mu_o NI}{2\pi r} \\\\B = \frac{(4\pi \times 10^{-7})\times (960) \times (2.5)}{2\pi \times 0.009} \\\\B = 0.053 \ T[/tex]

The magnetic field at a distance of 1.2 cm from the center of the toroid is calculated as follows;

[tex]B = \frac{\mu_o NI}{2\pi r} \\\\B = \frac{(4\pi \times 10^{-7})\times (960) \times (2.5)}{2\pi \times 0.012} \\\\B = 0.04 \ T[/tex]

How fast is the spaceship traveling towards the Sun? The radius of the orbit of Jupiter is 43.2 light-minutes, and that of the orbit of Mars is 12.6 light-minutes.

Answers

Question:

A spaceship enters the solar system moving toward the Sun at a constant speed relative to the Sun. By its own clock, the time elapsed between the time it crosses the orbit of Jupiter and the time it crosses the orbit of Mars is 35.0 minutes

How fast is the spaceship traveling towards the Sun? The radius of the orbit of Jupiter is 43.2 light-minutes, and that of the orbit of Mars is 12.6 light-minutes.

Answer:

S = 5.508 × 10¹¹m

V = 2.62 × 10⁸ m/s

Explanation:

The radius of the orbit of Jupiter, Rj is 43.2 light-minutes

radius of the orbit of Mars, Rm is 12.6 light-minutes

Distance travelled S = (Rj - Rm)

= 43.2 - 12.6 = 30.6 light- minutes

= 30.6 × (3 ×10⁸m/s) × 60 s

= 5.508 × 10¹¹m

time = 35mins = (35 × 60 secs)

= 2100 secs

speed = distance/time

V = 5.508 × 10¹¹m / 2100 s

V = 2.62 × 10⁸ m/s

A uniform disk of 10 kg and radius 4.0 m can rotate in a horizontal plane about a vertical axis through its center. The disk is rotating at an angular velocity of 15 rad/s when a 5-kg package is dropped vertically on a point that is 2.0 m from the center of the disk. What is the angular velocity of the disk/package system

Answers

Answer:

18.75 rad/s

Explanation:

Moment of inertia of the disk;

I_d = ½ × m_disk × r²

I_d = ½ × 10 × 4²

I_d = 80 kg.m²

I_package = m_pack × r²

Now,it's at 2m from the centre, thus;

I_package = 5 × 2²

I_package = 20 Kg.m²

From conservation of momentum;

(I_disk + I_package)ω1 = I_disk × ω2

Where ω1 = 15 rad/s and ω2 is the unknown angular velocity of the disk/package system.

Thus;

Plugging in the relevant values, we obtain;

(80 + 20)15 = 80 × ω2

1500 = 80ω2

ω2 = 1500/80

ω2 = 18.75 rad/s

A man stands on a merry-go-round that is rotating at 2.5 rad/s. If the coefficient of static friction between the man’s shoes and the merry-go-round is µs = 0.5, how far from the axis of rotation can he stand without sliding?

Answers

Answer:

0.8 m

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram.  There are three forces:

Weight force mg pulling down,

Normal force N pushing up,

and friction force Nμ pushing towards the center.

Sum of forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

N − mg = 0

N = mg

Sum of forces in the centripetal direction:

∑F = ma

Nμ = m v²/r

Substitute and simplify:

mgμ = m v²/r

gμ = v²/r

Write v in terms of ω and solve for r:

gμ = ω²r

r = gμ/ω²

Plug in values:

r = (10 m/s²) (0.5) / (2.5 rad/s)²

r = 0.8 m

The distance (radius) from the axis of rotation which the man can stand without sliding is 0.784 meters.

Given the following data:

Angular speed = 2.5 rad/s.Coefficient of static friction = 0.5

To determine how far (radius) from the axis of rotation can the man stand without sliding:

We would apply Newton's Second Law of Motion, to express the centripetal and force of static friction acting on the man.

[tex]\sum F = \frac{mv^2}{r} - uF_n\\\\\frac{mv^2}{r} = uF_n[/tex]....equation 1.

But, Normal force, [tex]F_n = mg[/tex]  

Substituting the normal force into eqn. 1, we have:

[tex]\frac{mv^2}{r} = umg\\\\\frac{v^2}{r} = ug[/tex]....equation 2.

Also, Linear speed, [tex]v = r\omega[/tex]

Substituting Linear speed into eqn. 2, we have:

[tex]\frac{(r\omega )^2}{r} = ug\\\\r\omega ^2 = ug\\\\r = \frac{ug}{\omega ^2}[/tex]

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

[tex]r = \frac{0.5 \times 9.8}{2.5^2} \\\\r = \frac{4.9}{6.25}[/tex]

A ball is dropped from the top of an eleven-story building to a balcony on the ninth floor. In which case is the change in the potential energy associated with the motion of the ball the greatest

Answers

Answer:

at the top of the 9 story building i think

Explanation:

When the ball starts to move, its kinetic energy increases and potential energy decreases. Thus the ball will experience its maximum potential energy at the top height before falling.

What is potential energy?

Potential energy of a massive body is the energy formed by virtue of its position and displacement. Potential energy is related to the mass, height and gravity as P = Mgh.

Where, g is gravity m is mass of the body and h is the height from the surface.  Potential energy is directly proportional to mass, gravity and height.

Thus, as the height from the surface increases, the body acquires its maximum potential energy. When the body starts moving its kinetic energy progresses and reaches to zero potential energy.

Therefore, at the sate where the ball is at the  top of the building it have maximum potential energy and then changes to zero.

Explanation:

Recall that force is defined as mass times acceleration, and acceleration is the second derivative with respect to time of the position. Since the position comes in terms of time, and with separate functions for each component in the three dimensional space, we first calculate the velocity (with the first derivative, and then the acceleration as the second derivative:

Consider a heat engine that inputs 10 kJ of heat and outputs 5 kJ of work. What are the signs on the total heat transfer and total work transfer

Answers

Answer:

Total heat transfer is positive

Total work transfer is positive

Explanation:

The first law of thermodynamics states that when a system interacts with its surrounding, the amount of energy gained by the system must be equal to the amount of energy lost by the surrounding. In a closed system, exchange of energy with the surrounding can be done through heat and work transfer.

Heat transfer to a system is positive and that transferred from the system is negative.

Also, work done by a system is positive while the work done on the system is negative.

Therefore, from the question, since the heat engine inputs 10kJ of heat, then heat is being transferred to the system. Hence, the sign of the total heat transfer is positive (+ve)

Also, since the heat engine outputs 5kJ of work, it implies that work is being done by the system. Hence the sign of the total work transfer is also positive (+ve).

a heat engine with an efficiency of 30.0% performs 2500 j of work. how much heat is discharged to the lower temperature reservoir

Answers

Answer:

Q₂ = 5833.33 J

Explanation:

First we need to find the energy supplied to the heat engine. The formula for the efficiency of the heat engine is given as:

η = W/Q₁

where,

η = efficiency of engine = 30% = 0.3

W = Work done by engine = 2500 J

Q₁ = Heat supplied to the engine = ?

Therefore,

0.3 = 2500 J/Q₁

Q₁ = 2500 J/0.3

Q₁ = 8333.33 J

Now, we find the heat discharged to lower temperature reservoir by using the formula of work:

W = Q₁ - Q₂

Q₂ = Q₁ - W

where,

Q₂ = Heat discharged to the lower temperature reservoir = ?

Therefore,

Q₂ = 8333.33 J - 2500 J

Q₂ = 5833.33 J

A positive kaon (K+) has a rest mass of 494 MeV/c² , whereas a proton has a rest mass of 938 MeV/c². If a kaon has a total energy that is equal to the proton rest energy, the speed of the kaon is most nearly:___________.
A. 0.25c
B. 0.40c
C. 0.55c
D. 0.70c
E. 0.85c

Answers

Answer:

0.85c

Explanation:

Rest mass of Kaon [tex]M_{0K}[/tex] = 494 MeV/c²

Rest mass of proton [tex]M_{0P}[/tex]  = 938 MeV/c²

The rest energy is gotten by multiplying the rest mass by the square of the speed of light c²

for the kaon, rest energy [tex]E_{0K}[/tex] = 494c² MeV

for the proton, rest energy [tex]E_{0P}[/tex] = 938c² MeV

Recall that the rest energy, and the total energy are related by..

[tex]E[/tex] = γ[tex]E_{0}[/tex]

which can be written in this case as

[tex]E_{K}[/tex] = γ[tex]E_{0K}[/tex] ...... equ 1

where [tex]E[/tex] = total energy of the kaon, and

[tex]E_{0}[/tex] = rest energy of the kaon

γ = relativistic factor = [tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2} } }[/tex]

where [tex]\beta = \frac{v}{c}[/tex]

But, it is stated that the total energy of the kaon is equal to the rest mass of the proton or its equivalent rest energy, therefore...

[tex]E_{K}[/tex] = [tex]E_{0P}[/tex] ......equ 2

where [tex]E_{K}[/tex] is the total energy of the kaon, and

[tex]E_{0P}[/tex] is the rest energy of the proton.

From [tex]E_{K}[/tex] = [tex]E_{0P}[/tex] = 938c²    

equ 1 becomes

938c² = γ494c²

γ = 938c²/494c² = 1.89

γ = [tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2} } }[/tex] = 1.89

1.89[tex]\sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2} }[/tex] = 1

squaring both sides, we get

3.57( 1 - [tex]\beta^{2}[/tex]) = 1

3.57 - 3.57[tex]\beta^{2}[/tex] = 1

2.57 = 3.57[tex]\beta^{2}[/tex]

[tex]\beta^{2}[/tex] = 2.57/3.57 = 0.72

[tex]\beta = \sqrt{0.72}[/tex] = 0.85

but, [tex]\beta = \frac{v}{c}[/tex]

v/c = 0.85

v = 0.85c

Answers

Answer:

momentum of the coupled cars V =  1.77 m/s

kinetic energy coverted to other forms during the collision ΔK.E = -2.892×10⁴J

Explanation:

given

m₁ =3.05 × 10⁴kg

u₁ =2.90m/s

m₂=6.10× 10⁴kg

u₂=1.20m/s

using law of conservation of momentum

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = (m₁ + m₂) V

3.05 × 10⁴ ×2.90 + 6.10× 10⁴× 1.20 = (9.15×10⁴)V

V =  1.617×10⁵/9.15×10⁴

V = 1.77m/s

K.E =1/2mV²

ΔK.E = K.E(final) - K.E(initial)

ΔK.E = ¹/₂ × 9.15×10⁴ ×(1.77)² -  ¹/₂ ×3.05 × 10⁴ × (2.90)² -¹/₂ × 6.10× 10⁴× (1.20)²

ΔK.E = ¹/₂ × (28.67-25.65-8.784) ×10⁴

ΔK.E = -2.892×10⁴J

The final speed is 1.77 m/s

The initial momentum is 8.84 × 10⁴ kgm/s [first car] and 7.3 × 10⁴ kgm/s [coupled car]

2.892×10⁴J of energy is converted.

Inelastic collision:

Since the first boxcar collides and couples with the two coupled boxcars, the collision is inelastic. In an inelastic collision, the momentum of the system is conserved but there is a loss in the total kinetic energy of the system.

Let the mass of the railroad boxcar be m₁ =3.05 × 10⁴kg

The initial speed of the railroad boxcar is u₁ = 2.90m/s

Mass of the two coupled boxcars m₂ = 2 × 3.05 × 10⁴kg = 6.10× 10⁴kg

And the initial speed be u₂ = 1.20m/s

The initial momentum of the first car is:

m₁u₁ = 3.05 × 10⁴ × 2.90 =  8.84 × 10⁴ kgm/s

The initial momentum of the coupled car is:

m₁u₁ = 6.10 × 10⁴ × 1.20 = 7.3 × 10⁴ kgm/s

Let the final speed after all the boxcars are coupled be v

From the law of conservation of momentum, we get:

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = (m₁ + m₂)v

3.05 × 10⁴ ×2.90 + 6.10× 10⁴× 1.20 = (9.15×10⁴)Vv

v =  1.617×10⁵/9.15×10⁴

v = 1.77m/s

The difference between initial and final kinetic energies is the amount of energy converted into other forms, which is given as follows:

ΔKE = K.E(final) - K.E(initial)

ΔKE = ¹/₂ × 9.15×10⁴ ×(1.77)² -  ¹/₂ ×3.05 × 10⁴ × (2.90)² -¹/₂ × 6.10× 10⁴× (1.20)²

ΔKE = ¹/₂ × (28.67-25.65-8.784) ×10⁴

ΔKE = -2.892×10⁴J

A particle with kinetic energy equal to 282 J has a momentum of magnitude 26.4 kg · m/s. Calculate the speed (in m/s) and the mass (in kg) of the particle.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]v=21.36\,\,\frac{m}{s}\\[/tex]

[tex]m=1.2357\,\,kg[/tex]

Explanation:

Recall the formula for linear momentum (p):

[tex]p = m\,v[/tex]  which in our case equals 26.4 kg m/s

and notice that the kinetic energy can be written in terms of the linear momentum (p) as shown below:

[tex]K=\frac{1}{2} m\,v^2=\frac{1}{2} \frac{m^2\,v^2}{m} =\frac{1}{2}\frac{(m\,v)^2}{m} =\frac{p^2}{2\,m}[/tex]

Then, we can solve for the mass (m) given the information we have on the kinetic energy and momentum of the particle:

[tex]K=\frac{p^2}{2\,m}\\282=\frac{26.4^2}{2\,m}\\m=\frac{26.4^2}{2\,(282)}\,kg\\m=1.2357\,\,kg[/tex]

Now by knowing the particle's mass, we use the momentum formula to find its speed:

[tex]p=m\,v\\26.4=1.2357\,v\\v=\frac{26.4}{1.2357} \,\frac{m}{s} \\v=21.36\,\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex]

A particle is released as part of an experiment. Its speed t seconds after release is given by v (t )equalsnegative 0.4 t squared plus 2 t​, where v (t )is in meters per second. ​a) How far does the particle travel during the first 2 ​sec? ​b) How far does it travel during the second 2 ​sec?

Answers

Answer:

a) 2.933 m

b) 4.534 m

Explanation:

We're given the equation

v(t) = -0.4t² + 2t

If we're to find the distance, then we'd have to integrate the velocity, since integration of velocity gives distance, just as differentiation of distance gives velocity.

See attachment for the calculations

The conclusion of the attachment will be

7.467 - 2.933 and that is 4.534 m

Thus, The distance it travels in the second 2 sec is 4.534 m

An amusement park ride has a vertical cylinder with an inner radius of 3.4 m, which rotates about its vertical axis. Riders stand inside against the carpeted surface and rotate with the cylinder while it accelerates to its full angular velocity. At that point the floor drops away and friction between the riders and the cylinder prevents them from sliding downward. The coefficient of static friction between the riders and the cylinder is 0.87. What minimum angular velocity in radians/second is necessary to assure that the riders will not slide down the wall?

Answers

Answer:

The minimum angular velocity necessary to assure that the riders will not slide down the wall is 1.58 rad/second.

Explanation:

The riders will experience a centripetal force from the cylinder

[tex]F_{C}[/tex] = mrω^2    .... equ 1

where

m is the mass of the rider

r is the inner radius of the cylinder = 3.4 m

ω is the angular speed of of the rider

For the riders not to slide downwards, this centripetal force is balanced by the friction between the riders and the cylinder. The frictional force is given as

[tex]F_{f}[/tex] = μR       ....equ 2

where

μ = coefficient of friction = 0.87

R is the normal force from the rider = mg

where

m is the rider's mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s

substitute mg for R in equ 2, we'll have

[tex]F_{f}[/tex] = μmg     ....equ 3

Equating centripetal force of equ 1 and frictional force of equ 3, we'll get

mrω^2 = μmg

the mass of the rider cancels out, and we are left with

rω^2 = μg

ω^2 = μg/r

ω = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{ug}{r} }[/tex]

ω = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{0.87*9.81}{3.4} }[/tex]

ω = 1.58 rad/second

The minimum angular velocity necessary so that the riders will not slide down the wall is 1.58 rad/s

The riders will experience a  centripetal force from the cylinder

[tex]F = mrw^2[/tex]

where  m is the mass of the rider

r is the inner radius of the cylinder = 3.4 m

ω is the angular speed of the rider

For the riders not to slide downwards, this centripetal force must be balanced by friction. The frictional force is given as

f = μN

where

μ = coefficient of friction = 0.87

N is the normal force = mg

f = μmg  

Equating centripetal force of and frictional force of we'll get

[tex]mrw^2 = umg[/tex]

[tex]rw^2 = ug[/tex]

[tex]w^2 = ug/r[/tex]

[tex]w= \sqrt{ug/r}[/tex]

[tex]w= \sqrt{0.87*9.8/3.4}[/tex]  

ω = 1.58 rad/s is the minimum angular velocity needed to prevent the rider from sliding.

A medieval city has the shape of a square and is protected by walls with length 500 m and height 15 m. You are the commander of an attacking army and the closest you can get to the wall is 100 m. Your plan is to set fire to the city by catapulting heated rocks over the wall (with an initial speed of 80 m/s). At what range of angles should you tell your men to set the catapult? (Assume the path of the rocks is perpendicular to the wall. Round your answers to one decimal place. Use g ≈ 9.8 m/s2. Enter your answer using interval notation. Enter your answer in terms of degrees without using a degree symbol.)

Answers

Answer:

  θ₁ = 85.5º       θ₂ = 12.98º

Explanation:

Let's analyze this projectile launch problem, the catapults are 100 m from the wall 15 m high, the objective is for the walls, let's look for the angles for which the rock stops touching the wall.

Let's write the equations for motion for this point

X axis

          x = v₀ₓ t

          x = v₀ cos θ t

Y axis

         y = [tex]v_{oy}[/tex] t - ½ g t2

         y = v_{o} sin θ t - ½ g t²

let's substitute the values

         100 = 80 cos θ t

           15 = 80 sin θ t - ½ 9.8 t²

we have two equations with two unknowns, so the system can be solved

let's clear the time in the first equation

           t = 100/80 cos θ

         15 = 80 sin θ (10/8 cos θ) - 4.9 (10/8 cos θ)²

         15 = 100  tan θ - 7.656 sec² θ

we can use the trigonometric relationship

         sec² θ = 1- tan² θ

we substitute

       15 = 100 tan θ - 7,656 (1- tan² θ)

       15 = 100 tan θ - 7,656 + 7,656 tan² θ

        7,656 tan² θ + 100 tan θ -22,656=0

let's change variables

       tan θ = u

         

        u² + 13.06 u + 2,959 = 0

let's solve the quadratic equation

       u = [-13.06 ±√(13.06² - 4  2,959)] / 2

       u = [13.06 ± 12.599] / 2

        u₁ = 12.8295

        u₂ = 0.2305

now we can find the angles

         u = tan θ

         θ = tan⁻¹ u

        θ₁ = 85.5º

         θ₂ = 12.98º

What is the change in internal energy of an engine if you put 15 gallon of gasoline into its tank? The energy content of gasoline is 1.5 x 106 J/gallon. All other factors, such as the engine’s temperature, are constant. How many hours the engine can work if the power of the engine’s motor is 600 W? (8 marks)

Answers

Answer:

ΔU = 2.25 x 10⁸ J

t = 104.17 s

Explanation:

The change in internal energy of the engine can be given by the following formula:

ΔU = (Mass of Gasoline)(Energy Content of Gasoline)

ΔU = (1.5 x 10⁶ J/gallon)(15 gallon)

ΔU = 2.25 x 10⁸ J

Now, for the time of operation, we use the following formula of power.

P = W/t = ΔU/t

t = ΔU/P

where,

t = time of operation = ?

ΔU = Change in internal energy = 2.25 x 10⁸ J

P = Power of motor = 600 W

Therefore,

t = (2.25 x 10⁸ J)/(600 W)

t = (375000 s)(1 h/3600 s)

t = 104.17 s

Explanation:

Why can a magnetic monopole not exist, assuming Maxwell's Equations are currently correct and complete?

Answers

Answer:

Because closed magnetic field loops have to be formed between both ends of the magnet, a magnet will always have two poles.

Explanation:

Magnetic Monopoles do not exist in nature because a magnetic field always forms a loop that runs from one end of the magnet to the other.

Since this loop of the magnetic field has an origination and termination point which are at the two ends of the magnet (North and South poles).  A magnet will always be bipolar which is in this case, North and South; even at an atomic level.

Water flowing through a garden hose of diameter 2.76 cm fills a 20.0-L bucket in 1.45 min. (a) What is the speed of the water leaving the end of the hose

Answers

Answer:

v = 31.84 cm/s or 0.318 m/s

the speed of the water leaving the end of the hose is 31.84 cm/s or 0.318 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

Diameter of hose d = 2.76 cm

Volume filled V = 20.0 L = 20,000 cm^3

Time t = 1.45 min = 105 seconds

The volumetric flow rate of water is;

F = V/t = 20,000cm^3 ÷ 105 seconds

F = 190.48 cm^3/s

The volumetric flow rate is equal the cross sectional area of pipe multiply by the speed of flow.

F = Av

v = F/A

Area A = πd^2/4

Speed v = F/(πd^2/4)

v = 4F/πd^2 ......1

Substituting the given values;

v = (4×190.48)/(π×2.76^2)

v = 31.83767439628 cm/s

v = 31.84 cm/s or 0.318 m/s

the speed of the water leaving the end of the hose is 31.84 cm/s or 0.318 m/s

You have a 2m long wire which you will make into a thin coil with N loops to generate a magnetic field of 3mT when the current in the wire is 1.2A. What is the radius of the coils and how many loops, N, are there

Answers

Answer:

radius of the loop =  7.9 mm

number of turns N ≅ 399 turns

Explanation:

length of wire L= 2 m

field strength B = 3 mT = 0.003 T

current I = 12 A

recall that field strength B = μnI

where n is the turn per unit length

vacuum permeability μ  = [tex]4\pi *10^{-7} T-m/A[/tex] = 1.256 x 10^-6 T-m/A

imputing values, we have

0.003 = 1.256 x 10^−6 x n x 12

0.003 = 1.507 x 10^-5 x n

n = 199.07 turns per unit length

for a length of 2 m,

number of loop N = 2 x 199.07 = 398.14 ≅ 399 turns

since  there are approximately 399 turns formed by the 2 m length of wire, it means that each loop is formed by 2/399 = 0.005 m of the wire.

this length is also equal to the circumference of each loop

the circumference of each loop = [tex]2\pi r[/tex]

0.005 = 2 x 3.142 x r

r = 0.005/6.284 = [tex]7.9*10^{-4} m[/tex] = 0.0079 m = 7.9 mm

A 5000 kg railcar hits a bumper (a spring) at 1 m/s, and the spring compresses 0.1 meters. Assume no damping. a) Find the spring constant k.

Answers

Answer:

k = 0.5 MN/m

Explanation:

Mass of the railcar, m = 5000 kg

Speed of the rail car, v = 1 m/s

The Kinetic energy(KE) of the railcar is given by the equation:

KE = 0.5 mv²

KE = 0.5 * 5000 * 1²

KE = 2500 J

The spring's compression, x = 0.1 m

The potential energy(PE) stored in the spring is given by the equation:

PE = 0.5kx²

PE = 0.5 * k * 0.1²

PE = 0.005k

According to the principle of energy conservation, Kinetic energy of the railcar equals the potential energy stored in the spring

KE = PE

2500 = 0.005k

k = 2500/0.005

k = 500000 N/m

k = 0.5 MN/m
