Question 1 of 25
A boy throws a ball straight up with a speed of 21.5 m/s. The ball has a mass
of 0.19 kg. How much gravitational potential energy will the ball have at the
top of its flight? (Assume there is no air resistance.)
O A. 48.5J
B. 41.2J
O C. 43.9 J
O D. 37.5J

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Although there is absolutely NO regard for significant digits, I can help you with this, nonetheless.

The equation for Potential Energy is PE = mgh. We have everything but the height of the ball. We have to solve for that using a one-dimensional motion equation:

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx, where Δx is our displacement (the height we need for PE). Filling in and keeping in mind that at the max height of parabolic travel, the final velocity of the object is 0:

0 = (21.5)² + 2(-9.8)Δx and

0 = 462.25 - 19.6Δx and

-462.25 = -19.6Δx so

Δx = 23.58 m. Using this as the h in our PE equation:

PE = .19(9.8)(23.58) so

PE = 43.9 J, choice C.

A) 0.09cm
B)-20.53cm
C)10.6cm
D)-0.04cm

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is (b).

Explanation:

Given that,

The height of the object, h = 15 cm

Object distance, u = -44 cm

Image distance, v = -14 cm

We need to find the focal length of the lens. Using the lens formula.

[tex]\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{u}\\\\\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{(-14)}-\dfrac{1}{(-44)}\\\\f=-20.53\ cm[/tex]

So, the focal length of the lens (-20.53 cm).

A long straight wire is parallel to one edge and is in the plane of a single-turn rectangular loop as shown. If the loop is moving in the plane shown so that the distance x changes at a constant rate of 20 cm/s, what is the magnitude of the emf induced in the loop at the instant x = 5.0 cm? Let / = 50 A, a = 50 cm, b = 6.0 cm.

Answers

Answer:

The magnitude of the emf induced in the loop is 2.4 × 10⁻⁵ V

Explanation:

The magnitude of the induced emf of a loop moving relative to a wire is given as follows;

The given parameters are;

I = 50 A, a = 50 cm, and b = 6.0 cm

The constant rate of change of x, v = 20 cm/s

Motional emf formula

The magnetic field due to the straight wire, B = μ₀·i/(2·π·x)

The flux given by the rectangular loop, Ф = BA =  μ₀·i/(2·π·x) × a × b

Therefore, we get;

[tex]e = \dfrac{-d\phi}{dt} = \dfrac{-\mu_0 \cdot i \cdot a\cdot b}{2 \cdot \pi} \times \dfrac{d}{dt} \left (\dfrac{1}{x} \right ) = \dfrac{-\mu_0 \cdot i \cdot a\cdot b}{2 \cdot \pi} \times \left (\dfrac{1}{x^2} \right ) \dfrac{dx}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]\because \dfrac{dx}{dt} = v[/tex]

Therefore;

[tex]e = \dfrac{-\mu_0 \cdot i \cdot a\cdot b}{2 \cdot \pi} \times \left (\dfrac{1}{x^2} \right ) \dfrac{dx}{dt} = \dfrac{-\mu_0 \cdot i \cdot a\cdot b}{2 \cdot \pi} \times \left (\dfrac{1}{x^2} \right ) \times v \left(\because \dfrac{dx}{dt} = v \right)[/tex]

μ₀ = 4·π × 10⁻⁷ H/m

We get;

[tex]e = \dfrac{4\cdot \pi \times 10^{-7} \, H/m\times50 \, A \times 0.5 \, m\times 0.06 \, m}{2 \cdot \pi} \times \left (\dfrac{1}{(0.05 \, m)^2} \right ) \times 0.2 \ m/s = 2.4 \times 10^{-5} \, V[/tex]

Answers

Question: A ship anchored at sea is rocked by waves that have crests 100 m apart the waves travel at 70m/S, at what frequency do the waves reach the ship?

Answer:

0.7 Hz

Explanation:

Applying,

v = λf............... Equation 1

Where v = velocity of the wave, f = frequency fo the wave, λ = wavelength of the wave

make f the subject of the equation

f = v/λ................. Equation 2

From the question,

Given: v = 70 m/s, λ = 100 m ( distance between successive crest)

Substitute these values into equation 2

f = 70/100

f = 0.7 Hz

Hence the frequency at which the wave reach the ship is 0.7 Hz

The specitic heat capacity of oxygen is 918 J/kg °C. The specific heat capacity of water is 4181 J/kg °C. Which substance will require more energy to raise its temperature by 1°C?​

Answers

Answer:

Water

Explanation:

Given the specific heat of oxygen is 918J/kg °C and the specific heat of water is 4181 J/kg °C.

Consider 1Kg mass of each substance.

Now 1 Kg of oxygen needs 918 J of energy to raise its temperature by 1 °C

Also, 1 Kg of water needs 4181 J of energy to raise its temperature by 1 °C.

Clearly water requires more energy when compared to oxygen.

Basically, specific heat capacity is the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of a 1 kg body by 1 °C.

What effect does the distance between Earth and the Sun have on Earth’s seasons?

Answers

Answer:

So actually, it is not so much the distance at a particular time that affects the seasons. It is a common misconception. It is in-fact the earths tilt. When we rotate around the sun, due to our tilt, the North and South of earth have different seasons. This is because when light is shining on to earth, because of Earths tilt, on one half the light shines more directly and on the other it scatters thus the different temperatures, causing season. Hope this helps.

Two uniform bars of the same dimensions are constructed from the same material. One bar has five evenly spaced holes through it and the second bar has only two holes. In these cases, the bars are slid over vertical pegs and rest on a horizontal surface, where friction between the bar and the surface is negligible. The two bars are each pulled by

horizontal forces of equal magnitude F from their right end as shown above. The bars' resulting angular accelerations are recorded.


Is the magnitude of the initial angular acceleration of the bar in case 1 larger than, smaller than or equal to the magnitude of the initial angular acceleration of the bar in Case 2? Explain your reasoning.

Answers

Solution :

The angular acceleration, [tex]$\alpha$[/tex] is obtained from the equation of the [tex]$\text{Newton's second law}$[/tex] of rotational motion,

Thus,

[tex]$\tau = F \times d$[/tex]

or [tex]$\tau = I \times \alpha$[/tex]

where [tex]$\tau$[/tex] is torque, F is force, d is moment arm distance, I is the moment of inertia

Thus, [tex]$\alpha=\frac{(F\times d)}{I}$[/tex]

Now if the force and the moment arm distance are constant, then the [tex]\text{angular acceleration is inversely proportional to the moment of inertia.}[/tex]

That is when, F = d = constant, then  [tex]$\alpha \propto \frac{1}{I}$[/tex] .

Thus, moment of inertia, I is proportional to mass of the bar.

The mass is less for the bar in case (1) in comparison with that with the bar in case (2) due to the holes that is made in the bar.

Therefore, the bar in case (1), has less moment of inertia and a greater angular acceleration.

A cubic box has a 0.6 cubic decimetre side. Find the mass of air in the box in gram. (1 Liter of air has a mass of 1.3 g).

Answers

Answer:

The mass of air in the box is 0.78 grams.

Explanation:

A litre equals a cubic decimetre. By definition of density ([tex]\rho[/tex]), in grams per litre, we calculate the mass of air inside the cube ([tex]m[/tex]), in grams:

[tex]m = \rho \cdot V[/tex] (1)

Where [tex]V[/tex] is the volume occupied by air within the cube, in litres.

If we know that [tex]V = 0.6\,L[/tex] and [tex]\rho = 1.3\,\frac{g}{L}[/tex], then the mass of air is:

[tex]m = \left(1.3\,\frac{g}{L} \right)\cdot (0.6\,L)[/tex]

[tex]m = 0.78\,g[/tex]

The mass of air in the box is 0.78 grams.

[tex] V = U + at[/tex]

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity = 0 (since the stone is starting from rest).

Final velocity = 32 m/s

Acceleration = g = 10 m/s²

Time = 3.2 seconds

To show that the speed of the stone when it hits the ground is 32 m/s, we would use the first equation of motion;

[tex] V = U + at[/tex]

Where;

V is the final velocity. U is the initial velocity. a is the acceleration. t is the time measured in seconds.

Substituting into the formula, we have;

[tex] 32 = 0 + 10*3.2[/tex]

[tex] 32 = 0 + 32 [/tex]

[tex] 32 = 32 [/tex]

Proven: 32 m/s = 32 m/s

the length of second hand of clock is 14cm, an ant sits on the top of second hand. find the following
i) speed of ant
ii) distance covered by ant in 150 seconds
iii) displacement in 150 seconds

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

i) Since the length of the second clock (radius) is 14 cm = 0.14 m, the distance covered by the second hand in one revelution is:

Distance covered = 2πr = 2π(0.14) = 0.88 m

The time taking to complete one revolution = 60 seconds, hence;

Speed = distance covered in one revolution / time take o complete a revolution

Speed = 0.88 m / 60 s = 0.0147 m/s

ii) Distance covered in 150 s = speed * 150 s = 0.0147 * 150 = 2.2 m

iii) Displacement in 150 seconds = distance from initial position to final position

At 150 s, the hand has covered 2 revolutions and moved 30 s. Hence:

Displacement in 150 seconds = speed * 30 s = 0.0147 * 30 = 0.44 m

s=d/t

We want to find the time, and we have the speed and the distance, so we rearrange the equation. t will be on one side and s and d will be on the other side.

t=d/s

t=60km/(48km/h)

t=1.25h

Answers

Answer:

We don't need the mass of the car in the equation to solve for final velocity, since the values given for the acceleration and the time it took to accelerate to that velocity are given. The equation we need is the one for acceleration, which is

[tex]a=\frac{v_f-v_0}{t}[/tex] We are solving for final velocity, we know the initial velocity is 0 (starting from rest), and the time to complete this acceleration (10 m/s/s) is 3 seconds:

[tex]10=\frac{v_f-0}{3}[/tex] which is the same thing as saying

Group of answer choices.

A. The change is a physical change because the copper in the statue is still there.

B. The change is a physical change because a new chemical is formed on the outside of the statue.

C. The change is not a physical change because the color of the statue has changed.

D. The change is not a physical change because a new chemical is formed on the outside of the statue.

Answer:

D. The change is not a physical change because a new chemical is formed on the outside of the statue.

Explanation:

A physical change can be defined as a type of change that only affects the physical form of a chemical substance (matter) without having any effect on its chemical properties. Thus, a physical change would only affect the physical appearance and properties of a chemical substance (matter) but not its chemical properties.

This ultimately implies that, a physical change result in a change of matter from one form or phase (liquid, solid or gas) to another without a corresponding change in chemical composition.

Additionally, a physical change is a type of change that involves an increase or decrease in the volume of a physical object (object). Also, this change can be reversed to the original state under certain conditions.

Since the Statue of Liberty which is made of copper turned green, the change is not a physical change because a new chemical is formed on the outside of the statue.
