A laser beam, shining from the earth's surface, is directed at the moon whose distance from the earth on this day is 370,000 km. If the beam diverges at an angle of only 1.65 x 10-5 rad, what diameter circle will it make on the moon

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

d = 6105 m

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use trigonometry to find the diameter of the has. The most common definition in optics of the angle of divergence is measured between the two ends of the beam, therefore to use this angle in trigonometry where the angle is measured with respect to the normal we must take half of this angle

          θ = 1.65 10⁻⁵ / 2 = 0.825 10⁻⁵ rad

let's use the tangent

          tan θ = y / L

          y = L tan θ

          y = 370000 103 tan (0.825 10⁻⁵)

let's be careful since the angles are in radians

          y = 3025.5 m

This is the distance from the normal that corresponds to the radius of the circle, the diameter is twice the radius

          d = 2 y

          d = 2 3025.5

          d = 6105 m

A 40kg mass is pulled along a surface by a horizontal force of 300N. Friction on the mass is 30N. What is the acceleration of the mass???

Answers

Answer:

6.75 m/s²

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass (m) of object = 40 Kg

Force applied (Fₐ) = 300 N

Force of friction (Fբ) = 30 N

Acceleration (a) =?

Next, we shall determine the net force acting on the mass. This can be obtained as follow:

Force applied (Fₐ) = 300 N

Force of friction (Fբ) = 30 N

Net force (Fₙ) =?

Fₙ = Fₐ – Fբ

Fₙ = 300 – 30

Fₙ = 270 N

Thus, the net force acting on the mass is 270 N.

Finally, we shall determine acceleration of the mass. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) of object = 40 Kg

Net force (Fₙ) = 270 N

Acceleration (a) =?

Net force = mass × acceleration

Fₙ = m × a

270 = 40 × a

Divide both side by 40

a = 270 / 40

a = 6.75 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the mass is 6.75 m/s²

ar dies it move during this time?

Answers

Answer:

638 m.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 94 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 22 m/s

Time (t) = 11 s

Distance (s) =?

We can obtain the distance travelled by using the following formula:

s = (u + v) t /2

s = (94 + 22) × 11 /2

s = 116 × 11 /2

s = 1276 /2

s = 638 m

Thus, the distance travelled is 638 m.

A different scaffold that weighs 400 N supports two painters, one 500 N and the other 400 N. The reading in the left scale is 800 N. What is the reading in the right-hand scale

Answers

Answer:

500 N

Explanation:

Given that,

The upward force is 800 N and the downward forces are 400 N, 500 N, 400 N.

At equilibrium, the upward forces will become equal to the downward forces. Let the reading in the right hand scale.

x + 800 = 400 + 500 + 400

x + 800 = 1300

x = 1300 - 800

= 500 N

So, the reading in the right hand scale is 500 N.

the mass of the earth is 6×10²⁴ kg and the it's radius is 6400 km . what is the mass of a man weighing 977 N in spring balance ? { G= 6.67×10-¹¹ } ​

Answers

Answer:

Mass of the man = 100 kg

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the Earth, M = 6×10²⁴ kg

The radius of the Earth, r = 6400 km

Force on man, F = 977 N

We need to find the mass of the man. Let the mass of the man be m. The gravitational force acting between two objects is given by :

[tex]F=G\dfrac{mM}{r^2}\\\\m=\dfrac{Fr^2}{GM}\\\\m=\dfrac{977\times (6400\times 10^3)^2}{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 6\times 10^{24}}\\\\m=99.99\ kg[/tex]

or

m = 100 kg

So, the mass of the man is 100 kg.

Brendan Gan is about to drive to Kuala Lumpur from Johor Bahru. The distance from Johor Bahru to Kuala Lumpur is 330 km. Brendan's car can drive 60 miles using 1 gallon of petrol The current petrol costs are RM1.85 per liter.
Calculate the total petrol cost for Brendan to drive from Johor Bahru to Kuala Lumpur.
Use: 1 gallon = 4.5 liters
1 mile = 1.61 km
Round up answer to 2 decimal places (8 marks)​

Answers

Answer:

The total cost in petrol will be: RM 28.43

Explanation:

The distance to be covered is: 330 km

The car does 60 mi per 1 gallon

so we convert this into km per liter as

60 mi/gal = 60 * 1.61 / 4.5 = 21.47 km/liter

Then, if 1 liter is needed to cover 21.47 km, then to cover 330 km one would need:

330 / 21.47 liters = 15.37 liters

Since each liter costs RM 1.85, then the cost in gas will be:

1.85 * 15.37 = RM 28.43

what should be done in order to increase the gravitational force between two objects? Decrease the mass of both of the objects. Decrease the mass of one of the objects. Decrease the distance between the two objects. Increase the distance between the two objects.

Answers

Answer:

Decrease the distance between the two objects.

Explanation:

The force (F) of attraction between two masses (M₁ and M₂) separated by a distance (r) is given by:

F = GM₁M₂ / r²

NOTE: G is the gravitational force constant.

From the equation:

F = GM₁M₂ / r²

We can say that the force is directly proportional to the masses of the object and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. This implies that an increase in any of the masses will increase the force of attraction and likewise, a decrease in any of the masses will lead to a decrease in the force of attraction.

Also, an increase in the distance between the masses will result in a decrease in the force of attraction and a decrease in the distance between the masses, will result in an increase in the force of attraction.

Considering the question given above,

To increase the gravitational force between the two objects, we must decrease the distance between the two objects as explained above.

Answer:

Decrease the distance between the two objects.

A 2.0-kg ball with an initial velocity of (4i + 3j) m/s collides with a wall and rebounds with a velocity of (–4i + 3j) m/s. What is the impulse exerted on the ball by the wall?

Answers

Answer:

-16i kgm/s

Explanation:

Impulse I = m(v - u) where m = mass of ball = 2.0 kg, u = initial velocity of ball = (4i + 3j) m/s  and v = final velocity of ball = (-4i + 3j) m/s.

So, the impulse is thus

I = m(v - u)

= 2.0 kg[(-4i + 3j) m/s - (4i + 3j) m/s]

= 2.0 kg[(-4i - 4i) + (3j - 3j) m/s]

= 2.0kg[-8i + 0j] m/s

= -16i kgm/s

The impulse on a 2.0-kg ball with an initial velocity of (4i + 3j) m/s collides with a wall and rebounds with a velocity of (–4i + 3j) m/s = 16i

Impulse: This can be defined as change in momentum of a body. The s.i unit of impulse is kgm/s²

The formula of impulse is

I = m(v-u)................ Equation 1

Where, I = impulse exerted on the ball by the wall, m = mass of the ball, v = final velocity of the ball, u = initial velocity of the ball

From the question,

Given: m = 2.0 kg, v = (-4i+3j) m/s, u = (4i+3j)  m/s

Substitute these values into equation 1

I = 2.0[(-4i+3j)-(4i+3j)

I = 2.0(-4i-4i+3j-3j)

I  = 2.0(-8i+0j)

I = -16i.

Hence the impulse exerted by the wall on the ball is -16i

To solve this problem we will use the principle of energy conservation, which tells us that potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy or vice versa.

[tex]E_{kin}=E_{pot}[/tex]

We must remember that potential energy is defined as the product of mass by gravity by height.

[tex]E_{pot}=m*g*h[/tex]

And the kinetic energy can be calculated by means of the following expression.

[tex]E_{kin}=0.5*m*v^{2}\\[/tex]

Now equalizing the two equations we can determine the initial velocity.

[tex]m*9.81*26=0.5*m*v^{2}\\255.06=0.5*v^{2}\\v=\sqrt{255.06/0.5}\\v=22.58[m/s][/tex]

What is the average power developed by a motor as it lifts a 400.-kilogram mass at constant speed through a vertical distance of 10.0 meters in 8.0 seconds

Answers

Answer:

The average power developed by a motor is 4905 Watts.

Explanation:

The average power is given by:

[tex] P = \frac{W}{t} [/tex]

Where:

W: is the work

t: is the time = 8.0 s

First, let's find the work:

[tex] W = F*d [/tex]

Where:

F: is the force

d: is the displacement = 10.0 m

The force is in the vertical motion, and since the movement of the mass is at constant speed the force is:

[tex] F = mg = 400 kg*9.81 m/s^{2} = 3924 N [/tex]

Hence, the average power is:

[tex] P = \frac{F*d}{t} = \frac{3924 N*10.0 m}{8.0 s} = 4905 J/s = 4905 W [/tex]                    

Therefore, the average power developed by a motor is 4905 Watts.

Explanation:

The general formula for the harmonics on a string loose at one end is f = nv/2L where n = odd integer, v = speed of wave in string and L = length of string.

For a string loose at one end, there are a odd number of wavelengths which can fit onto the string. Since this is the case, we only have harmonics of odd numbers and thus we have even number harmonics missing.
