A cyclist is riding along at a speed of 20.7 when she decides to apply the brakes which gave a deceleration applied was a rate of -3.4 m/s2 over the span of 7.8 s. What distance does she travel over that period of time.
Answer:
The distance is 58.03 m
Explanation:
Constant Acceleration Motion
It occurs when the velocity of an object changes by an equal amount in every equal period of time.
Being a the constant acceleration, vo the initial speed, vf the final speed, and t the time, the following relation applies:
[tex]v_f=v_o+at[/tex]
The distance traveled by the object is given by:
[tex]\displaystyle x=v_o.t+\frac{a.t^2}{2}[/tex]
The conditions of the problem state the cyclist has an initial speed of v0=20.7 m/s during t=7.8 seconds and acceleration of -3.4 m/s^2.
The final speed is:
[tex]v_f=20.7+(-3.4)\cdot 7.8[/tex]
[tex]v_f=20.7-26.52[/tex]
[tex]v_f=-5.82\ m/s[/tex]
Note the cyclist has stopped and come back because his speed is negative. Now calculate the distance:
[tex]\displaystyle x=20.7\cdot 7.8+\frac{(-3.4)\cdot 7.8^2}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle x=161.46-103.43[/tex]
x=58.03 m
explain the relationship among visible light, the electromagnetic spectrum, and sight.
Explanation:
The electromagnetic spectrum is the name given to the full range of frequencies and/or wavelengths that electromagnetic phenomena may have.
Human eyes respond to a small range of wavelengths in that spectrum. That response is called sight. Because humans can see that electromagnetic energy, it is called visible light.
A child whose weight is 287 N slides down a 7.20 m playground slide that makes an angle of 31.0° with the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between slide and child is 0.120. (a) How much energy is transferred to thermal energy? (b) If she starts at the top with a speed of 0.559 m/s, what is her speed at the bottom?
Answer:
a
[tex]H =212.6 \ J[/tex]
b
[tex]v = 7.647 \ m/s[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The child's weight is [tex]W_c = 287 \ N[/tex]
The length of the sliding surface of the playground is [tex]L = 7.20 \ m[/tex]
The coefficient of friction is [tex]\mu = 0.120[/tex]
The angle is [tex]\theta = 31.0 ^o[/tex]
The initial speed is [tex]u = 0.559 \ m/s[/tex]
Generally the normal force acting on the child is mathematically represented as
=> [tex]N = mg * cos \theta[/tex]
Note [tex]m * g = W_c[/tex]
Generally the frictional force between the slide and the child is
[tex]F_f = \mu * mg * cos \theta[/tex]
Generally the resultant force acting on the child due to her weight and the frictional force is mathematically represented as
[tex]F =m* g sin(\theta) - F_f[/tex]
Here F is the resultant force and it is represented as [tex]F = ma[/tex]
=> [tex]ma = m* g sin(31.0) - \mu * mg * cos (31.0)[/tex]
=> [tex]a = g sin(31.0)- \mu * g * cos (31.0)[/tex]
=> [tex]a = 9.8 * sin(31.0) - 0.120 * 9.8 * cos (31.0)[/tex]
=>[tex]a = 4.039 \ m/s^2[/tex]
So
[tex]F_f = 0.120 * 287 * cos (31.0)[/tex]
=> [tex]F_f = 29.52 \ N[/tex]
Generally the heat energy generated by the frictional force which equivalent tot the workdone by the frictional force is mathematically represented as
[tex]H = F_f * L[/tex]
=> [tex]H = 29.52 * 7.2[/tex]
=> [tex]H =212.6 \ J[/tex]
Generally from kinematic equation we have that
[tex]v^2 = u^2 + 2as[/tex]
=> [tex]v^2 = 0.559^2 + 2 * 4.039 * 7.2[/tex]
=> [tex]v = \sqrt{0.559^2 + 2 * 4.039 * 7.2}[/tex]
=> [tex]v = 7.647 \ m/s[/tex]
A ball is launched from ground level at 20 m/s at an angle of 40° above the
horizontal. A) How long the ball is in the air? B)What is the maximum
height the ball can reach?
(a) The ball's height y at time t is given by
y = (20 m/s) sin(40º) t - 1/2 g t ²
where g = 9.80 m/s² is the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity. Solve y = 0 for t :
0 = (20 m/s) sin(40º) t - 1/2 g t ²
0 = t ((20 m/s) sin(40º) - 1/2 g t )
t = 0 or (20 m/s) sin(40º) - 1/2 g t = 0
The first time refers to where the ball is initially launched, so we omit that solution.
(20 m/s) sin(40º) = 1/2 g t
t = (40 m/s) sin(40º) / g
t ≈ 2.6 s
(b) At its maximum height, the ball has zero vertical velocity. In the vertical direction, the ball is in free fall and only subject to the downward acceleration g. So
0² - ((20 m/s) sin(40º))² = 2 (-g) y
where y in this equation refers to the maximum height of the ball. Solve for y :
y = ((20 m/s) sin(40º))² / (2g)
y ≈ 8.4 m
A 0.20-kg object is attached to the end of an ideal horizontal spring that has a spring constant of 120 N/m. The simple harmonic motion that occurs has a maximum speed of 0.70 m/s. Determine the amplitude A of the motion.
Answer:
The amplitude of the motion is 0.0286 m.
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the object, m = 0.2 kg
spring constant, k = 120 N/m
maximum speed of the simple harmonic motion, [tex]V_m[/tex] = 0.70 m/s
The amplitude A of the motion is given by;
[tex]V_m = \omega A\\\\[/tex]
where;
ω is the angular velocity given as;
[tex]\omega = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }\\\\\omega = \sqrt{\frac{120}{0.2} }\\\\\omega =24.5 \ rad/s[/tex]
Now, substitute the value of angular velocity and solve the amplitude;
[tex]V_m = \omega A\\\\A = \frac{V_m}{\omega}\\\\A = \frac{0.7}{24.5}\\\\A = 0.0286 \ m[/tex]
Therefore, the amplitude of the motion is 0.0286 m.

Explanation:
A block with a mass M = 4.85 kg is resting on a slide that has a curved surface. There is no friction. The speed of the block after it has slid along the slide sufficiently far for its vertical drop to be 19.6 m is:__________a. 19.6 m/s b. 384 m/s c. 93 m/s d. 43.2 m/s e. The problem cannot be solved because the shape of the curved slide is not given.
Answer:
The correct option is a
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The mass of the block is [tex]m = 4.84 \ kg[/tex]
The height of the vertical drop is [tex]h = 19.6 \ m[/tex]
Generally from the law of energy conservation , the potential energy at the top of the slide is equal to the kinetic energy at the point after sliding this can be mathematically represented as
[tex]PE = KE[/tex]
i.e [tex]m * g * h = \frac{1}{2} * m * v^2[/tex]
=> [tex]gh = 0.5 v^2[/tex]
=> [tex]v = \sqrt{\frac{9.8 * 19.6}{0.5 } }[/tex]
=> [tex]v = 19.6 \ m/s[/tex]
A physics professor demonstrates the Doppler effect by tying a 600 Hz sound generator to a 1.0-m-long rope and whirling it around her head in a horizontal circle at 100 rpm. Assume the room temperature is 20 degrees Celsius. What are the highest and lowest frequencies heard by a student in the classroom?
Answer:Highest frequency =618.89Hz
Lowest frequency=582.22Hz
Explanation:
The linear velocity of a sound generator is related to angular velocity and is given as
Vs = rω where
r = the radius of circular path = 1.0 m
ω is the angular velocity of the sound generator. = 100 rpm
1 rev/min = 0.10472 rad/s
100rpm =10.472 rad/ s
Vs = rω
= 1m x 10.472rad/ s= 10.472m/s
A) Highest frequency heard by a student in the classroom = Maximum frequency. Using the Doppler effect formulae,
f max = (v/ v-vs) fs
Where , v is the speed of the sound in air at 20 degrees celcius =
343 metres per second
vs is the linear velocity of the sound generator=10.472m/s
fs is the frequency of the sound generator= 600 Hz
f max = (343/ 343 - 10.472) x 600
=343/332.528) x600
=618.89Hz
B) Lowest frequency heard by a student in the classroom = Minimum frequency
f min = (v/ v+vs) fs
(343/ 343 + 10.472) x 600
=343/353.472) x 600
=582.22hz
During a safety crash, a car impacts a solid concrete barrier and and comes to rest in 0.10s. In a second test, an identical car traveling at the same initial speed impacts a line of water barrels and comes to rest in 2.3s. During which test was the change in the momentum of the car the greatest?
a. It is the same for both cars.
b. The car that hits the concrete barrier.
c. The car that hits the water barrels
Answer:
The correct answer is C
Explanation:
Change is momentum can be described as the change in the product of mass and velocity of a body. Every moving object as a momentum and the higher the momentum of this object, the harder it is to stop. Impulse (a force), which is sometimes used to describe change in momentum can be described as the product as force multiplied by time.
From the description above, it can be deduced that an increase in impulse can lead to a greater change in momentum. And an increase in impulse can be brought about by an increase in the time it takes a body to be brought to rest after collision. And since the car that hit the water barrels was brought to rest at a longer time, it has a greater change in momentum
You wish to design a pendulum which moves a mass along an arc of length 40 cm when the angle with the vertical changes by 20 degrees. What should be the length L in meters of the pendulum? Enter the numerical answer without units. Your answer must be within 5% of the exact answer to receive credit.
Answer:
The length of the pendulum cord is approximately 114.592 centimeters.
Explanation:
We include a representation of the motion of the pendulum in the image attached below. The trajectory described by the pendulum is represented by the following geometrical expression:
[tex]s = \theta \cdot r[/tex] (1)
Where:
[tex]\theta[/tex] - Angular change with the vertical, measured in radians.
[tex]r[/tex] - Length of the pendulum cord, measured in centimeters.
[tex]s[/tex] - Arc, measured in centimeters.
If we know that [tex]\theta = \frac{\pi}{9}[/tex] and [tex]s = 40\,cm[/tex], then the length of the pendulum cord is.
[tex]r = \frac{s}{\theta}[/tex]
[tex]r = \frac{40\,cm}{\frac{\pi}{9} }[/tex]
[tex]r \approx 114.592\,cm[/tex]
The length of the pendulum cord is approximately 114.592 centimeters.
why is The sum of two vectors has the smallest magnitude when the angle between these two vectors is 180t
Answer:
C = A - B
Explanation:
The addition of vectors takes into account the magnitude of each vector and its direction, so when adding two vectors, the result depends on the direction of the vectors.
* If the vectors have the same direction the result is maximum
C = A + A
* if the vectors have 90 between them, the magnitude of the result is given by the Pythagorean Theorem
C = √(A² + B²)
* if the vectors have 180º between them the result is minimal
C = A - B
We can also perform this sum graphically, where the resulting vector goes from the origin of the first vector to the tip of the last one, it can clearly be seen that when the vectors are antiparallel (180º angle) the magnitude is minimal

You use an electron microscope in which the matter wave associated with the electron beam has a wavelength of 0.0173 nm. What is the kinetic energy of an electron in the beam, expressed in electron volts?
Answer:
The kinetic energy of an electron in the beam is 5.04 keV.
Explanation:
We need to find the velocity of the electron by using the De Broglie wavelength:
[tex] \lambda = \frac{h}{mv} [/tex]
Where:
λ: is the wavelength = 0.0173 nm
v: is the velocity
m: is the electron's mass = 9.1x10⁻³¹ kg
h: is the Planck constant = 6.62x10⁻³⁴ J.s
[tex] v = \frac{h}{m\lambda} = \frac{6.62 \cdot 10^{-34} J.s}{9.1 \cdot 10^{-31} kg*0.0173 \cdot 10^{-9} m} = 4.21 \cdot 10^{7} m/s [/tex]
Now, we can find the kinetic energy:
[tex] E_{k} = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} = \frac{1}{2}9.1 \cdot 10^{-31} kg*(4.21 \cdot 10^{7} m/s)^{2} = 8.06 \cdot 10^{-16} J*\frac{1 eV}{1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} J} = 5038 eV = 5.04 keV [/tex]
Therefore, the kinetic energy of an electron in the beam is 5.04 keV.

A vertical spring gun is used to launch balls into the air. If the spring is compressed by 4.9 cm, the ball of mass 5.5 g is launched to a maximum height 50.2 cm. How much should the spring be compressed to send the ball twice as high?
We know, by conservation of energy :
[tex]\dfrac{kx^2}{2}=mgh[/tex]
Therefore,
[tex]\dfrac{x_1^2}{x_2^2}=\dfrac{h_1}{h_2}[/tex]
Putting given values, we get :
[tex]\dfrac{x_1^2}{x_2^2}=\dfrac{h_1}{h_2}\\\\\dfrac{4.9^2}{x_2^2}=\dfrac{50.2}{2\times 50.2}\\\\x_2^2=2\times 4.9^2\\\\x_2 = 4.9\times \sqrt{2}\\\\x_2=6.93\ cm[/tex]
Therefore, the spring be compressed to 6.93 cm to send the ball twice as high.
Hence, this is the required solution.

Determine the force of gravitational attraction between a 92 kg student and a 550 g slice of pizza that are 25 cm apart
Answer:
F = 5.4 x 10⁻⁸ N
Explanation:
The gravitational force of attraction between two objects is given by Newton's Gravitational Law as follows:
F = Gm₁m₂/r²
where,
F = Gravitational Force = ?
G = Universal Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²
m₁ = mass of student = 92 kg
m₂ = mass of pizza slice = 550 g = 0.55 kg
r = distance between student and pizza slice = 25 cm = 0.25 m
Therefore,
F = (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²)(92 kg)(0.55 kg)/(0.25 m)²
F = 5.4 x 10⁻⁸ N
An artificial satellite in a circular orbit around the Sun has a period of 8 years. Determine the ratio of the satellite's orbital radius to that of the earth's orbital radius. Assume that the earth's orbit around the Sun is circular.
Answer:
The ratio is [tex]R_c:R_e = 4 : 1[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The period of the satellite is [tex]T_c = 8 \ years[/tex]
Generally the period of earth around the sun is [tex]T_e = 1 \ year[/tex]
Generally from Kepler's third law , which is mathematically represented as
[tex]\frac{T_c ^2}{T_e^2} = \frac{R_c^3}{R_e^3}[/tex]
Here [tex]R_c[/tex] is the radius of the orbit which the satellite rotate around the sun
[tex]R_e[/tex] is the radius of the orbit which the earth rotate around the sun
=> [tex]\frac{R_c^3}{R_e^3} = [\frac{8}{1} ]^2[/tex]
=> [tex]\frac{R_c}{R_e} = \sqrt[3]{[\frac{8}{1} ]^2}[/tex]
=> [tex]\frac{R_c}{R_e} = \frac{4}{1 }[/tex]
=> [tex]R_c:R_e = 4 : 1[/tex]
If a person Travels 100 metre due east and then returns to the same place his total displacement is 200. (needed ASAP)
A. True
B. False
Distance is the total path covered by the object
Here, 200 m is the distance covered by the person and NOT the displacement
Displacement of an object is nothing more than the shortest path between the initial and the final point
If the person travelled 100m and came back, his initial and final point will remain the same which means that he will have a displacement of 0 m
A cylindrical wire of radius 2 mm carries a current of 3.0 A. The potential difference between points on the wire that are 44 m apart is 3.8 V.
Required:
a. What is the electric field in the wire?
b. What is the resistivity of the material of which the wire is made?
Answer:
a. E = 86.36 x 10⁻³ V/m = 86.36 mV/m
b. ρ = 3.6 x 10⁻⁷ Ωm
Explanation:
a.
The electric field in terms of the voltage is given by the following formula:
E = V/d
where,
E = Electric Field in the Wire = ?
V = Potential Difference = 3.8 V
d = distance between the points = 44 m
Therefore,
E = 3.8 V/44 m
E = 86.36 x 10⁻³ V/m = 86.36 mV/m
b.
Now, from Ohm's Law:
V = IR
R = V/I
where,
R = Resistance of wire = ?
I = Current = 3 A
Therefore,
R = 3.8 V/3 A
R = 1.27 Ω
Now, the resistance of a wire can be given as:
R = ρL/A
where,
ρ = resistivity of material = ?
L = Length = 44 m
A = Cross-sectional area = πr² = π(0.002 m)² = 1.25 x 10⁻⁵ m²
Therefore,
1.27 Ω = ρ*44 m/1.25 x 10⁻⁵ m²
(1.27 Ω)(1.25 x 10⁻⁵ m²)/44 m = ρ
ρ = 3.6 x 10⁻⁷ Ωm

A potter's wheel is a uniform disk of mass of 10.0 kg and radius 20.0 cm. A 2.0-kg lump of clay, roughly cylindrical with radius 3.0 cm, is placed at the center of the wheel. The wheel initially rotates at 30.0 rev/min. The clay then flattens into a disk of radius 8.0 cm. What is the final angular speed of the wheel?
a. 29.6 rev/min
b. 29.2 rev/min
c. 30.8 rev/min
d. 30.4 rev/min
e. 30.0 rev/min
Answer:
b. 29.2 rev/min
Explanation:
Assuming no external torques acting during the process, total angular momentum must be conserved, as follows:[tex]L_{0} = L_{f} (1)[/tex]
The initial angular momentum L₀, can be expressed as follows:[tex]L_{0} = I_{0} * \omega_{0} (2)[/tex]
where I₀ = initial moment of inertia = moment of inertia of the disk +
moment of inertia of the cylinder and ω₀ = initial angular velocity =
30.0 rev/min.
Replacing by the values, we get:[tex]I_{0} = \frac{1}{2} * m_{d} *r_{d} ^{2} + \frac{1}{2}* m_{c} *r_{c} ^{2} = 0.2 kg*m2 +9e-4 kg*m2 = 0.2009 kg*m2 (3)[/tex]⇒ L₀ = I₀* ω₀ = 0.2009 kg*m² * 30.0 rev/min = 6.027 kg*m²*rev/minThe final angular momentum can be written as follows:[tex]L_{f} = I_{f} * \omega_{f} (4)[/tex]
where If = final moment of inertia = moment of the inertia of the solid
disk + moment of inertia of the clay flattened on a disk, and ωf = final
angular velocity.
Replacing by the values, we get:[tex]I_{f} = \frac{1}{2} * m_{d} *r_{d} ^{2} + \frac{1}{2}* m_{fd} *r_{fd} ^{2} = 0.2 kg*m2 +6.4e-3 kg*m2 = 0.2064 kg*m2 (5)[/tex]
⇒ Lo =Lf = If*ωf
Replacing (2) in (1), and solving for ωf, we get:[tex]\omega_{f} = \frac{L_{o}}{I_{f} } = \frac{6.027kg*m2*rev/min}{0.2064kg*m2} = 29.2 rev/min (6)[/tex]
The rate of change of angular displacement is defined as angular speed. The final angular speed of the wheel will be 29.2 rev/min.
What is angular speed?The rate of change of angular displacement is defined as angular speed. is stated as follows:
ω = θ t
Where,
θ is the angle of rotation,
t is the time
ω is the angular speed
The given data in the problem is
m is the mass of wheel = 10.0 kg
r₁ is the radius of disk = 20.0 cm=0.2
M is the mass of clay= 2.0 kg
R is the radius of cylinder = 3.0cm
[tex]\rm \omega_i[/tex] is the initial rotational speed =30.0 rev/min
r₂ is the final radius of disk= 8.0 cm.
[tex]\rm \omega_f[/tex] is the initial rotational speed=?
When the external torques act on the body is zero the total angular momentum must be conserved, as follows:
Initial momentum = Final momentum
[tex]\rm L_0=L_f[/tex]
The value of the initial angular momentum L₀ is found by
I₀ = initial moment of inertia = moment of inertia of the disk +moment of inertia of the cylinder
[tex]\rm I_0= \frac{1}{2}m_dr_d^2+ \frac{1}{2}m_cr_c^2\\\\ \rm I_0= \frac{1}{2}\times 10\times (0.2)^2+ \frac{1}{2}\times m_2(0.03)^2[/tex]
[tex]\rm L_0 = I_0\times \omega_0\\\\ L_0 = 2009\times 30\\\\ \rm L_0 =6.027 \;kgm^2rev/min[/tex]
The value of the final angular momentum [tex]I_f[/tex] is found by
[tex]\rm I_f= \frac{1}{2}m_dr_d^2+ \frac{1}{2}m_fr_fd^2\\\\ \rm I_0= 0.2064 m_2[/tex]
[tex]\rm I_f[/tex] is the final moment of inertia = moment of the inertia of the solid disk + moment of inertia of the clay flattened on a disk.
[tex]L_0 =L_f = I_f \times \omega_f[/tex]
[tex]\rm \omega_f=\frac{L_0}{I_f} \\\\ \rm \omega_f=\frac{6.027 m_2}{0.2064 m_2} \\\\ \rm \omega_f= 29.2\; rev/min[/tex]
Hence the final angular speed of the wheel will be 29.2 rev/min.

If 500 cal of heat are added to a gas, and the gas expands doing 500 J of work on its surroundings, what is the change in the internal energy of the gas?
Answer:
The change in the internal energy of the gas 1,595 J
Explanation:
The first law of thermodynamics establishes that in an isolated system energy is neither created nor destroyed, but undergoes transformations; If mechanical work is applied to a system, its internal energy varies; If the system is not isolated, part of the energy is transformed into heat that can leave or enter the system; and finally an isolated system is an adiabatic system (heat can neither enter nor exit, so no heat transfer takes place.)
This is summarized in the expression:
ΔU= Q - W
where the heat absorbed and the work done by the system on the environment are considered positive.
Taking these considerations into account, in this case:
Q= 500 cal= 2,092 J (being 1 cal=4.184 J) W=500 JReplacing:
ΔU= 2,092 J - 500 J
ΔU= 1,592 J whose closest answer is 1,595 J
The change in the internal energy of the gas 1,595 J

[tex]\Delta U_{g}[/tex] - Change in the gravitational potential energy, measured in joules.
[tex]m[/tex] - Mass of the person, measured in kilograms.
[tex]g[/tex] - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.
[tex]\Delta z[/tex] - Change in height, measured in meters.
If we know that [tex]m = 46\,kg[/tex], [tex]g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex] and [tex]\Delta z = 10\,m[/tex], then the change in the gravitational potential energy is:
[tex]\Delta U_{g} = (100\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (10\,m)[/tex]
[tex]\Delta U_{g} = 9807\,J[/tex]
The choice that best approximates this answer is B.
Are the refractive index and the speed of light in a vacuum direct propotional or inversley
The refractive index of the medium is inversely proportional to the velocity of light in it. As the refractive index of a medium increases, the speed of light going through that medium decreases.
Which possible component of initial energy is caused by molecular motion within a material?
Answer: thermal energy
Answer:
Thermal energy
Explanation:
The internal energy of a system is widely known as thermal energy. Now, thermal energy is also called heat energy and it is an internal energy of a component which is produced when an increase in temperature causes atoms and molecules within the component to move faster and start colliding with one other.
Therefore, the more heat the is applied to the component, the hotter the substance and the more its particles move which in turn leads to a higher thermal energy.
Find the mass of an object on planet F if its weight is 650 N (g = 13m/s^2)
Answer:
the object's mass is 50 kg
Explanation:
We use Newton's second law to solve for the mass:
F = m * a , then m = F / a
In our case, the acceleration is the gravitational acceleration on the planet, and the force is the weight of the object on the planet. So we get:
m = w / a = 650 N / 13 m/s^2 = 50 kg
Then, the object's mass is 50 kg.
