A heavy truck moving with 20 km/hr hits a car at rest. A physics student argued that
the maximum velocity the car suddenly gains is 40 km/hr. Do you agree with it?
Explain with necessary theory
Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
speed of truck = 20 km/h
Initially the car at rest.
maximum velocity of car = 40 km/h
When the truck and the car collide, the momentum of the truck transferred to car.
So, the car can attain the speed of 40 km/h.
A flat, 75-turn, coil is oriented with its plane perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field that varies steadily from 0.00 To 1.20 T in 20.0 ms. The diameter of each coil is 10 cm. Calculate the emf induced in the coil during this time, in volts.
Turning a corner at a typical large intersection in a city means driving your car through a circular arc with a radius of about 25 m. if the maximum advisable acceleration of your vehicle through a turn on wet pavement is 0.40 times the free-fall acceleration, what is the maximum speed at which you should drive through this turn?
Answer:
9.89 m/s.
Explanation:
Given that,
The radius of the circular arc, r = 25 m
The acceleration of the vehicle is 0.40 times the free-fall acceleration i.e.,a = 0.4(9.8) = 3.92 m/s²
Let v is the maximum speed at which you should drive through this turn. It can be solved as follows :
[tex]a=\dfrac{v^2}{r}\\\\v=\sqrt{ar} \\\\v=\sqrt{3.92\times 25} \\\\=9.89 m/s[/tex]
So, the maximum speed of the car should be 9.89 m/s.
A wheel 30 cm in diameter accelerates uniformly from 245 rpm to 380 rpm in 6.1 s . Part A How far will a point on the edge of the wheel have traveled in this time
Answer:
A point on the edge of the wheel will travel 199.563 radians at the given time.
Explanation:
Given;
initial angular velocity of the wheel; [tex]\omega _i = 245 \ rev/\min = 245\ \frac{rev}{\min} \times \frac{2\pi}{1\ rev} \times \frac{1 \ \min}{60 \ s} = 25.66 \ rad/s[/tex]
final angular velocity of the wheel;
[tex]\omega _f = 380 \ rev/\min = 380 \ \frac{rev}{\min} \times \frac{2\pi}{1\ rev} \times \frac{1 \ \min}{60 \ s} = 39.80 \ rad/s[/tex]
radius of the wheel, d/2 = (30 cm ) / 2 = 15 cm = 0.15 m
time of motion, t = 6.1 s
The angular distance traveled by the edge of the wheel is calculated as;
[tex]\theta = (\frac{\omega_f + \omega_i}{2} )t\\\\\theta = (\frac{39.8 + 25.66}{2} )\times 6.1\\\\\theta = 199.653 \ radian[/tex]
Therefore, a point on the edge of the wheel will travel 199.563 radians at the given time.

Let's write the components of the net forces at the intersections. Note that the system is equilibrium so all the net forces are zero.
Forces involving W1:
[tex]x:\:\:\:-T_1 + T_3\cos \alpha = 0\:\: \\ \text{or}\:\:T_2 = T_3\cos \alpha\:\:\:\:\:(1)[/tex]
[tex]y:\:\:\:T_3\sin \alpha - W_1 = 0\:\:\: \\ \text{or}\:\:\:T_3\sin \alpha = W_1\:\:\:\:\:\:(2)[/tex]

Substitute (2) into (3) and we get
[tex]T_1\sin 53 - W_1 = W_2[/tex]
Solving for [tex]T_1[/tex],
[tex]T_1 = \dfrac{W_1 + W_2}{\sin 53} = 30.1\:\text{N}[/tex]
Julie drives 100 mi to Grandmother's house. On the way to Grandmother's, Julie drives half the distance at 40.0 mph and half the distance at 60.0 mph . On her return trip, she drives half the time at 40.0 mph and half the time at 60.0 mph.
Required:
a. What is Julie's average speed on the way to grandmother's house?
b. What is her average speed in the return trip?
Answer:
a. The average speed on her way to Grandmother's house is 48.08 mph
b. The average speed in the return trip is 50 mph.
Explanation:
The average speed (S) can be calculated as follows:
[tex] S = \frac{D}{T} [/tex]
Where:
D: is the total distance
T: is the total time
a. To find the total distance in her way to Grandmother's house, we need to find the total time:
[tex]T_{i} = t_{1_{i}} + t_{2_{i}} = \frac{d_{1_{i}}}{v_{1_{i}}} + \frac{d_{2_{i}}}{v_{2_{i}}}[/tex]
Where v is for velocity
[tex] T = \frac{d_{1_{i}}}{v_{1_{i}}} + \frac{d_{2_{i}}}{v_{2_{i}}} = \frac{(100/2) mi}{40.0 mph} + \frac{(100/2) mi}{60.0 mph} = 1.25 h + 0.83 h = 2.08 [/tex]
Hence, the average speed on her way to Grandmother's house is:
[tex]S_{i} = \frac{D}{T_{i}} = \frac{100 mi}{2.08 h} = 48.08 mph[/tex]
b. Now, to calculate the average speed of the return trip we need to calculate the total time:
[tex]D = v_{1_{f}}\frac{T_{f}}{2} + v_{2_{f}}\frac{T_{f}}{2} = \frac{T_{f}}{2}(v_{1_{f}} + v_{2_{f}})[/tex]
[tex]100 mi = \frac{T_{f}}{2}(40 mph + 60 mph)[/tex]
[tex] T_{f} = \frac{200 mi}{40 mph + 60 mph} = 2 h [/tex]
Therefore, the average speed of the return trip is:
[tex]S_{f} = \frac{D}{T_{f}} = \frac{100 mi}{2 h} = 50 mph[/tex]

four equal magnitude point charges 3 microcoulomb is placed at the corners of a square that is 40cm inside find the force on any one of the charges
Answer:
Approximately [tex]0.97\; \rm N[/tex]. This force would point away from the center of the square (to the left at [tex]45^\circ[/tex] above the horizontal direction.)
Explanation:
Coulomb's constant: [tex]k \approx 8.98755 \times 10^{-9}\; \rm N \cdot m^{2} \cdot C^{-2}[/tex].
By Coulomb's Law, the electrostatic force between two point charges [tex]q_1[/tex] and [tex]q_2[/tex] that are separated by [tex]r[/tex] (vacuum) would be:
[tex]\displaystyle F = \frac{k \cdot q_1 \cdot q_2}{r^2}[/tex].
Consider the charge on the top-left corner of this square.
Apply Coulomb's Law to find the electrostatic force between this charge and the charge on the lower-left corner.
Convert quantities to standard units:
[tex]q_1 = q_2 = 3 \times 10^{-6}\; \rm C[/tex].
[tex]r = 0.40\; \rm m[/tex].
[tex]\begin{aligned}F &= \frac{k \cdot q_1 \cdot q_2}{r^2} \\ &\approx \frac{8.98755 \times 10^{-9}\; \rm N \cdot m^{2} \cdot C^{-2} \times (3 \times 10^{-6}\; \rm C)^{2}}{(0.40\; \rm m)^{2}} \\ &\approx 0.506\; \rm N\end{aligned}[/tex].
As the two charges are of the same sign, the electrostatic force on each charge would point away from the other charge. Hence, for the charge on the top-left corner of the square, the electrostatic force from the charge below it would point upwards.
Similarly, the charge to the right of this charge would exert an electrostatic force with the same magnitude (approximately [tex]0.506\; \rm N[/tex]) that points leftwards.
For the charge to the lower-right of the top-left charge, [tex]r = \sqrt{2} \times 0.40\; \rm m[/tex]. Therefore:
[tex]\begin{aligned}F &= \frac{k \cdot q_1 \cdot q_2}{r^2} \\ &\approx \frac{8.98755 \times 10^{-9}\; \rm N \cdot m^{2} \cdot C^{-2} \times (3 \times 10^{-6}\; \rm C)^{2}}{(\sqrt{2} \times 0.40\; \rm m)^{2}} \\ &\approx 0.253 \; \rm N\end{aligned}[/tex].
This force would point to the top-left of the top-left charge, which is [tex]45^\circ[/tex] above the horizontal direction. Decompose this force into two components that are normal to one another:
Horizontal component: approximately [tex]\sin(45^\circ) \times 0.253\; \rm N \approx 0.179\; \rm N[/tex].Vertical component: approximately [tex]\cos(45^\circ) \times 0.253\; \rm N \approx 0.179\; \rm N[/tex]Consider the net force on the top-left charge in two components:
Horizontal component: approximately [tex]0.506\; \rm N[/tex] from the charge on the top-right corner and approximately [tex]0.179\; \rm N[/tex] from the charge on the lower-right corner. Both components point to the left-hand side. [tex]F_x \approx 0.506\; \rm N + 0.179\; \rm N = 0.685\;\rm N[/tex] (to the left).Vertical component: approximately [tex]0.506\; \rm N[/tex] from the charge on the lower-left corner and approximately [tex]0.179\; \rm N[/tex] from the charge on the lower-right corner. Both components point upwards. [tex]F_y \approx 0.506\; \rm N + 0.179\; \rm N = 0.685\;\rm N[/tex] (upward).Combine these two components to find the magnitude of the net force on this charge:
[tex]\begin{aligned}F &= \sqrt{{F_x}^{2} + {F_y}^{2}} \\ &\approx \sqrt{0.685^2 + 0.685^2 }\; \rm N \\ &\approx 0.97\; \rm N\end{aligned}[/tex].
This force would point to the top-left of this charge (also at [tex]45^\circ[/tex] above the horizontal direction, away from the center of the square) because its horizontal and vertical components have the same magnitude.
The velocity-time graph of a body is given. What quantities are represented by (a) slope of the graph and (b) area under the graph?
Answer:
a) acceleration
b) displacement
Explanation:
The velocity-time graph is a graph of velocity versus time. The velocity (m/s) would be on the Y-axis while time (s) would be on the X-axis.
a) The slope of a graph is given by: change in Y-axis/change in X-axis = ΔY/ΔX
In a velocity-time graph, ΔY = change in velocity and ΔX = change in time.
Hence, the slope of a velocity-time graph becomes: change in velocity/change in time.
Also, acceleration = change in velocity/change in time.
Hence, the slope of a velocity-time graph = acceleration.
b) Assuming that the area under a velocity-time graph is a rectangle, the area is given as:
Area of a rectangle = length x breadth
= velocity x time (m/s x s)
Also, displacement = velocity x time (m)
Hence, the area under a velocity-time graph of a body would give the displacement of the body.
What is the rate of the entropy change of the universe as heat leaks out a window, consisting of a single pane of glass that is 0.5 cm thick and 1.0 m2 in area, where the indoor temperature is 25°C and the outdoor temperature is -10°C?
Answer:
The change in entropy is 1.6 W/K.
Explanation:
Thickness, d = 0.5 cm
Area, A = 1 m^2
T = 25°C
T' = - 10°C
Coefficient of thermal conductivity of glass, K = 0.8 W/mK
The change in entropy is given by
S = Q/T
Here,
[tex]S =\frac{Q}{T}\\\\S = \frac{K A (T - T')}{d(T - T')}\\\\S = \frac{0.8\times 1}{0.5} = 1.6 W/K[/tex]
Three 15-Ω and two 25-Ω light bulbs and a 24 V battery are connected in a series circuit. What is the current that passes through each bulb?
1) 0.18 A
2) 0.25 A
3) 0.51 A
4) 0.74 A
5) The current will be 1.6 A in the 15-Ω bulbs and 0.96 A in the 25-Ω bulbs.
Answer:
I = 0.25 A
Explanation:
Given that,
Three 15 ohms and two 25 ohms light bulbs and a 24 V battery are connected in a series circuit.
In series combination, the equivalent resistance is given by :
[tex]R=R_1+R_2+R_3+....[/tex]
So,
[tex]R=15+15+15+25+25\\\\=95\ \Omega[/tex]
The current each resistor remains the same in series combination. It can be calculated using Ohm's law i.e.
V = IR
[tex]I=\dfrac{V}{R}\\\\I=\dfrac{24}{95}\\\\I=0.25\ A[/tex]
So, the current of 0.25 A passes through each bulb.

Larger animals have sturdier bones than smaller animals. A mouse's skeleton is only a few percent of its body weight, compared to 16% for an elephant. To see why this must be so, recall that the stress on the femur for a man standing on one leg is 1.4% of the bone's tensile strength.
Suppose we scale this man up by a factor of 10 in all dimensions, keeping the same body proportions. (Assume that a 70 kg person has a femur with a cross-section area (of the cortical bone) of 4.8 x 10−4 m2, a typical value.)
Both the inside and outside diameter of the femur, the region of cortical bone, will increase by a factor of 10. What will be the new cross-section area?
Answer:
[tex]a_s=4.8\times 10^{-2}~m^2[/tex]
Explanation:
Given:
cross sectional area of the bone, [tex]a=4.8 \times 10^{-4} ~m^2[/tex]
factor of up-scaling the dimensions, [tex]s=10[/tex]
Since we need to find the upscaled area having two degrees of the dimension therefore the scaling factor gets squared for the area being it in 2-dimensions.
The scaled up area is:
[tex]a_s=a\times s^2[/tex]
[tex]a_s=[4.8 \times 10^{-4}]\times 10^2[/tex]
[tex]a_s=4.8\times 10^{-2}~m^2[/tex]
The area is defined as the space covered by an object in 2 d dimension. For a rectangle, it is a product of length and breadth. The new cross-section area will be 4.8×10⁻² m².
What is the area?The area is defined as the space covered by an object in 2 d dimension. For a rectangle, it is a product of length and breadth. Its unit is m².
Given data in the problem
a is the crossectional area of conical bone = 4.8×10⁻⁴m².
s is the factor of up-scaling the dimensions =10
For two degrees of dimension, the upscaled area will be square of the given area.
The scaled-up area will be
[tex]\rm a_s=a\times s^2\\\\ a_s= 4.8\times10^{-4}\times {10}^2\\\\\ \rm a_s=4.8\times10^{-2}\;m^2[/tex]
Hence the new cross-section area will be 4.8×10⁻² m².

A 2.0 kg wood block is launched up a wooden ramp that is inclined at a 30˚ angle. The block’s initial speed is 10 m/s. What vertical height does the block reach above its starting point? Use the coefficients μk=0.20 andμs=0.50.
Answer:
The wood block reaches a height of 4.249 meters above its starting point.
Explanation:
The block represents a non-conservative system, since friction between wood block and the ramp is dissipating energy. The final height that block can reach is determined by Principle of Energy Conservation and Work-Energy Theorem. Let suppose that initial height has a value of zero and please notice that maximum height reached by the block is when its speed is zero.
[tex]\frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v^{2} = m \cdot g\cdot h + \mu_{k}\cdot m\cdot g\cdot s \cdot \sin \theta[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{2}\cdot v^{2} = g\cdot h + \mu_{k}\cdot g\cdot \left(\frac{h}{\sin \theta} \right)\cdot \sin \theta[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{2}\cdot v^{2} = g\cdot h +\mu_{k}\cdot g\cdot h[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{2}\cdot v^{2} = (1 +\mu_{k})\cdot g\cdot h[/tex]
[tex]h = \frac{v^{2}}{2\cdot (1 + \mu_{k})\cdot g}[/tex] (1)
Where:
[tex]h[/tex] - Maximum height of the wood block, in meters.
[tex]v[/tex] - Initial speed of the block, in meters per second.
[tex]\mu_{k}[/tex] - Kinetic coefficient of friction, no unit.
[tex]g[/tex] - Gravitational acceleration, in meters per square second.
[tex]m[/tex] - Mass, in kilograms.
[tex]s[/tex] - Distance travelled by the wood block along the wooden ramp, in meters.
[tex]\theta[/tex] - Inclination of the wooden ramp, in sexagesimal degrees.
If we know that [tex]v = 10\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], [tex]\mu_{k} = 0.20[/tex] and [tex]g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex], then the height reached by the block above its starting point is:
[tex]h = \frac{\left(10\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}}{2\cdot (1+0.20)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)}[/tex]
[tex]h = 4.249\,m[/tex]
The wood block reaches a height of 4.249 meters above its starting point.

So the answer becomes 221480 / 1000 = 221.48 because we needed kg
And that answer becomes 221.48/100 2.21 because the force of gravity should be 9.8 not 980
The total force exerted on the fulcrum is
