Answer:
2500 N/m²
Explanation:
Pressure: This can be defined as the force acting normally on a surface per unit area.
The expression for pressure is give as
P = F/A...................... Equation 1
Where P = pressure (N/m²), F = force (N), A = Contact area (m²)
Given: F = 500 N, A = 2000 cm² = (2000/10000) m = 0.2 m.
Substitute into equation 1
P = 500/0.2
P = 2500 N/m²
Hence the pressure exerted to the surface is 2500 N/m²
ASK YOUR TEACHER A meter stick is found to balance at the 49.7-cm mark when placed on a fulcrum. When a 51.5-gram mass is attached at the 16.0-cm mark, the fulcrum must be moved to the 39.2-cm mark for balance. What is the mass of the meter stick
Answer:
0.114 kg or 114 g
Explanation:
From the diagram attaches,
Taking the moment about the fulcrum,
sum of clockwise moment = sum of anticlockwise moment.
Wd = W'd'
Where W = weight of the mass, W' = weight of the meter rule, d = distance of the mass from the fulcrum, d' = distance of the meter rule.
make W' the subject of the equation
W' = Wd/d'................ Equation 1
Given: W = mg = 0.0515(9.8) = 0.5047 N, d = (39.2-16) = 23.2 cm, d' = (49.7-39.2) = 10.5 cm
Substitute these values into equation 1
W' = 0.5047(23.2)/10.5
W' = 1.115 N.
But,
m' = W'/g
m' = 1.115/9.8
m' = 0.114 kg
m' = 114 g
An electron and a positron collide head on, annihilate, and create two 0.804 MeV photons traveling in opposite directions. What was the initial kinetic energy of an electron? What was the initial kinetic energy of a positron?
Answer:
Ke- = Ke+ = 0.294MeV
Explanation:
To fins the kinetic energy of both electron and positron you use the following formula, for the case of annihilation of one electron an positron:
2[tex]E_p=2E_o+K_{e^-}+K_{e^+}[/tex] (1)
Ep: photon energy = 0.804MeV
Eo: rest energy of one electron (and positron) = 0.51MeV
Ke-: kinetic energy of electron
Ke+: kinetic energy of positron
You replace the values of Ep and Eo in the equation (1):
[tex]K_{e^-}+K_{e^+}=2E_p-2E_o=2(0.804MeV-0.51MeV)=0.588MeV[/tex]
Iy you assume both positron and electron have the same speed, then, the kinetic energy of them are equal, and the kinetic energy of each one is:
[tex]K_{e^-}=K_{e^+}=\frac{0.588MeV}{2}=0.294MeV[/tex]
A 148 g ball is dropped from a tree 11.0 m above the ground. With what speed would it hit the ground
Answer:
14.68m/s
Explanation:
As per the question, the data provided is as follows
Mass = M = 0.148 kg
Height = h = 11 m
Initial velocity = U = 0 m/s
Final velocity = V
Gravitational force = F
Mass = M
Based on the above information, the speed that hit to the ground is
As we know that
Work to be done = Change in kinetic energy
[tex]F ( S) = (\frac{1}{2} ) M ( V^2 - U^2 )[/tex]
[tex]M g h = (\frac{1}{2} ) M ( V^2 - U^2 )[/tex]
[tex]g h = (\frac{1}{2} ) ( V^2 - U^2 )[/tex]
[tex]V^2 - U^2 = 2gh[/tex]
[tex]V^2 - 0 = 2gh[/tex]
[tex]V = \sqrt{2 g h}[/tex]
[tex]= \sqrt{2\times9.8\times11}[/tex]
= 14.68m/s

A hydraulic lift is made by sealing an ideal fluid inside a container with an input piston of cross-sectional area 0.004 m2 , and an output piston of cross-sectional area 1.2 m2 . The pistons can slide up or down without friction while keeping the fluid sealed inside. What is the maximum weight that can be lifted when a force of 60 N is applied to the input piston
Answer:
Maximum weight that can be lifted = 18,000 N
Explanation:
Given:
Cross-sectional area of input (A1) = 0.004 m²
Cross-sectional area of the output (A2) = 1.2 m ²
Force (F) = 60 N
Computation:
Pressure on input piston (P1) = F / A1
Assume,
Maximum weight lifted by piston = W
Pressure on output piston (P2) = W / A2
We, know that
P1 = P2
[F / A1] = [W / A2]
[60 / 0.004] = [W / 1.2]
150,00 = W / 1.2
Weight = 18,000 N
Maximum weight that can be lifted = 18,000 N
To practice Problem-Solving Strategy 11.1 Equilibrium of a Rigid Body. A horizontal uniform bar of mass 2.7 kg and length 3.0 m is hung horizontally on two vertical strings. String 1 is attached to the end of the bar, and string 2 is attached a distance 0.6 m from the other end. A monkey of mass 1.35 kg walks from one end of the bar to the other. Find the tension T1 in string 1 at the moment that the monkey is halfway between the ends of the bar.
Answer:
[tex]T_{1}[/tex] = 14.88 N
Explanation:
Let's begin by listing out the given variables:
M = 2.7 kg, L = 3 m, m = 1.35 kg, d = 0.6 m,
g = 9.8 m/s²
At equilibrium, the sum of all external torque acting on an object equals zero
τ(net) = 0
Taking moment about [tex]T_{1}[/tex] we have:
(M + m) g * 0.5L - [tex]T_{2}[/tex](L - d) = 0
⇒ [tex]T_{2}[/tex] = [(M + m) g * 0.5L] ÷ (L - d)
[tex]T_{2}[/tex] = [(2.7 + 1.35) * 9.8 * 0.5(3)] ÷ (3 - 0.6)
[tex]T_{2}[/tex]= 59.535 ÷ 2.4
[tex]T_{2}[/tex] = 24.80625 N ≈ 24.81 N
Weight of bar(W) = M * g = 2.7 * 9.8 = 26.46 N
Weight of monkey(w) = m * g = 1.35 * 9.8 = 13.23 N
Using sum of equilibrium in the vertical direction, we have:
[tex]T_{1}[/tex] + [tex]T_{2}[/tex] = W + w ------- Eqn 1
Substituting T2, W & w into the Eqn 1
[tex]T_{1}[/tex] + 24.81 = 26.46 + 13.23
[tex]T_{1}[/tex] = 14.88 N

b )
object distance u = 25 cm
focal length of convex lens f = 1.8 cm
image distance v = ?
lens formula
[tex]\frac{1}{v} - \frac{1}{u} = \frac{1}{f}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{v} - \frac{1}{-25} = \frac{1}{1.8}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{v} = \frac{1}{1.8} -\frac{1}{25}[/tex]
.5555 - .04

You have just landed on Planet X. You take out a ball of mass 100 gg , release it from rest from a height of 16.0 mm and measure that it takes a time of 2.90 ss to reach the ground. You can ignore any force on the ball from the atmosphere of the planet. How much does the 100-g ball weigh on the surface of Planet X?
Answer:
0.173 N.
Explanation:
We will calculate the mass and then use the following calculations on the surface of planet X that is :
[tex]W=mg[/tex]
We would use the following equation to get the value of g for planet X that is :
[tex]y_f-y_i=v_{yi}t+\frac{1}{2}gt^2[/tex]
Then, put the values in the above equation.
[tex]16=0+\frac{1}{2}\times g\times(2.90)^2[/tex]
[tex]\bf\mathit{g=3.80\;m/s^2}[/tex]
Now, we will measure the ball weight on planet X's surface:
[tex]m=\frac{100}{1000} \;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;[1kg=1000g][/tex]
Then, we have to put the value in the above equation.
[tex]W=0.1\times 1.73=0.173\:N[/tex]

A bus travelling at a speed of 40 kmph reaches its destination in 8 minutes and 15 seconds. How far is the destination? a. 5.43 km b. 5.44 km c. 5.50 km d. 9.06 km
Answer:
c. 5.50 km
Explanation:
8 min * 1h/(60 min) = 8/60 = 2/15 h
15 sec* 1 min/60 sec = 1/4 min * 1h/(60 min) = 1/240 h
8 min 15 sec = (2/15+1/240)h
40 km/h *(2/15 +1/240)h =5.50 km

er of density 1000kgm-3 is mixed with 100cm3 of sea water of density 1030kgm-3. Calculate the density of the mixture. *
Answer:
1008.57kg/m3
Explanation:
Now the mass of fresh water is 250×1000 /1000000 = 0.25kg
Now the mass of salt water is
100×1030 /1000000 = 0.103kg
Note Density = mass / volume
Mass = volume × density
Note that converting from cm3 to m3 we divide by 1000000
Total mass = 0.25kg +0.103kg= 0.353kg.
Total volume also is (250 +100 )/1000000= 35 × 10^{-5}m3
Hence the density of the mixture= total mass / total volume
0.353kg/35 × 10^{-5}m3=1008.57kg/m3
Two vectors having magnitudes of 5.00 and 9.00 respectively. If the value of their dot product is 12.0, find the angle between the two vectors.
Answer:
C = 74.53°
Explanation:
Let the magnitudes of 5.00 and 9.00 be vectors A and B respectively, hence the dot product of this vector is defined as
A.B = |A||B|cosC; let C be the angle between the vectors
12 = 5×9 cos C
Hence cos C = 12/45
C = cos^-1(12/45)
C = 74.53°

Answer:
Loudness: decreases
Amplitude: decreases
Pitch: stays the same
Frequency: stays the same
Explanation:
1.
An oscilloscope measures how much the microphone is vibrating, or how much electricity it is sending. This means that a louder noise will register higher on the oscilloscope. Since the size of the waves at Y is lower than at X, the loudness of the sound has decreased.
2.
Similarly to loudness, amplitude measures how far the crests of the waves are from the nodes. Since Y is closer to the center line than X, it has a lower amplitude.
3 and 4.
The pitch and frequency, for our purposes, are essentially the same thing here. They are dependent on how close together the waves on the oscilloscope are, or how quickly the microphone is vibrated. Since this stays the same throughout the entire sound, they both stay the same.
Hope this helps!
A 2 kg object is subjected to three forces that give it an acceleration −→a = −(8.00m/s^2)ˆi + (6.00m/s^2)ˆj. If two of the three forces, are −→F1 = (30.0N)ˆi + (16.0N)ˆj and −→F2 = −(12.0N)ˆi + (8.00N)ˆj, find the third force.
Answer:
[tex]\vec{F_3}=(-34.0N)\hat{i}+(-12.0N)\hat{j}[/tex]
Explanation:
You have three forces F1, F2 an F3 that produce the following acceleration:
a = −(8.00m/s^2)ˆi + (6.00m/s^2)ˆj
you know that force F1 and F2 are:
F1 = (30.0N)ˆi + (16.0N)ˆj
F2 = −(12.0N)ˆi + (8.00N)ˆj
and the force F3 is unknown:
F3 = F3x ˆi + F3y ˆj
The second Newton law is given by the following equation:
[tex]\vec{F}=m\vec{a}[/tex]
F: the total force = F1 +F2 + F3
m: mass of the object = 2 kg
By the properties of vectors you have:
[tex]\vec{F_1}+\vec{F_2}+\vec{F_3}=m\vec{a}\\\\(30.0-12.0+F_{3x})N\hat{i}+(16.0+8.00+F_{3y})N\hat{j}=(2.0kg)[(-8.00m/s^2)\hat{i}+(6.00m/s^2)\hat{j}]\\\\(18.0+F_{3x})N\hat{i}+(24.0+F_{3y})\hat{j}=(-16.00N)\hat{i}+(12.0N)\hat{j}[/tex]
Both x and y component must be equal in the previous equality, then you have:
[tex]18.0N+F_{3x}=-16.00N\\\\F_{3x}=-34.00N\\\\24.0N+F_{3y}=12.0N\\\\F_{3y}=-12.00N[/tex]
Hence, the vector F3 is:
[tex]\vec{F_3}=(-34.0N)\hat{i}+(-12.0N)\hat{j}[/tex]

The friends now feel ready to try a problem. Suppose an Atwood machine has a mass of m1 = 2.5 kg and another mass of m2 = 8.5 kg hanging on opposite sides of the pulley. Assume the pulley is massless and frictionless, and the cord is ideal. Determine the magnitude of the acceleration of the two objects and the tension in the cord.
Answer:
a = 5.34 m/s²
T = 37.86 N
Explanation:
This is the case where two masses are hanging vertically on sides of the pulley. In such case, the formula for acceleration of objects is derived to be:
a = g(m₂ - m₁)/(m₂ + m₁)
where,
a = acceleration of both masses = ?
g = 9.8 m/s²
m₂ = heavier mass = 8.5 kg
m₁ = lighter mass = 2.5 kg
Therefore,
a = (9.8 m/s²)(8.5 kg - 2.5 kg)/(8.5 kg + 2.5 kg)
a = (9.8 m/s²)(6 kg)/(11 kg)
a = 5.34 m/s²
The formula for tension in cable is derived to be:
T = 2m₁m₂g/(m₁ + m₂)
T = (2)(2.5 kg)(8.5 kg)(9.8 m/s²)/(2.5 kg + 8.5 kg)
T = 37.86 N

If the radius of curvature of the cornea is 0.75 cm when the eye is focusing on an object 36.0 cm from the cornea vertex and the indexes of refraction are as described before, what is the distance from the cornea vertex to the retina
Answer:
The distance from the cornea vertex to the retina is 2.36 cm
Explanation:
The question is incomplete.
The complete question is as follows;
A Nearsighted Eye. A certain very nearsighted person cannot focus on anything farther than 36.0 cm from the eye. Consider the simplified model of the eye. In a simplified model of the human eye, the aqueous and vitreous humors and the lens all have a refractive index of 1.40, and all the refraction occurs at the cornea, whose vertex is 2.60 cm from the retina.
If the radius of curvature of the cornea is 0.65 cm when the eye is focusing on an object 36.0 cm from the cornea vertex and the indexes of refraction are as described before, what is the distance from the cornea vertex to the retina?
Solution.
We use image-object reaction to calculate the distance from the cornea vertex to the retina.
Mathematically;
n1/s + n2/s’ = n2-n1/R
From the question, we identify the following;
n1 ; Refractive index of air = 1
n2 ; Refractive index of lens = 1.4
S ; Object Distance = 36 cm
S’ = ?
R ; Radius of curvature of the cornea = 0.65
Substituting these values into the equation above;
1/36 + 1.4/S’ = (1.4-1)/0.65
{S’+ 36(1.4)}/36S’ = 0.4/0.65
{S’ + 50.4}/36S’ = 0.62
S’ + 50.4 = 22.32S’
50.4 = 22.32S’ -S’
21.32S’ = 50.4
S’ = 50.4/21.32
S’ = 2.36 cm
a research submarine what is the maximum depth it can go
Answer: 36, 200 feet deep according to information on google
Explanation:
A small submarine, the bathyscape Trieste, made it to 10,916 meters (35,813 feet) below sea level in the deepest point in the ocean, the Challenger Deep in the Marianas Trench, a few hundred miles east of the Philippines. This part of the ocean is 11,034 m (36,200 ft) deep, so it seems that a submarine can make it as deep as it's theoretically possible to go
What is the velocity of a car that travels 556km northwest in 3.2 hours
Answer:
173.75 km/hr in the NW direction.
Explanation:
Velocity is the time rate of change in displacement of a body. Mathematically:
v = d / t
where d = displacement
t = time
Therefore, the velocity of the car is:
v = 556 / 3.2 = 173.75 km/hr
The velocity of the car is 173.75 km/hr in the NW direction.
The velocity of a car will be "173.75 km/hr".
Displacement and Velocity,The velocity of something like a car moving northward on something like a prominent motorway as well as the velocity of something like a rocket launching towards spacecraft both might be determined or monitored.
Displacement, d = 556 km
Time, t = 3.2 hours
We know the relation,
→ Velocity = [tex]\frac{Displacement}{Time}[/tex]
or,
→ V = [tex]\frac{d}{t}[/tex]
By substituting the values, we get
= [tex]\frac{556}{3.2}[/tex]
= [tex]173.75[/tex] km/hr
Thus the response above is right.

The driver of a train moving at 23m/s applies the breaks when it pases an amber signal. The next signal is 1km down the track and the train reaches it 76s later. The acceleration is -0.26s^2. Find its speed at the next signal.
Answer:
3.2 m/s
Explanation:
Given:
Δx = 1000 m
v₀ = 23 m/s
a = -0.26 m/s²
t = 76 s
Find: v
This problem is over-defined. We only need 3 pieces of information, and we're given 4. There are several equations we can use. For example:
v = at + v₀
v = (-0.26 m/s²) (76 s) + (23 m/s)
v = 3.2 m/s
Or:
Δx = ½ (v + v₀) t
(1000 m) = ½ (v + 23 m/s) (76 s)
v = 3.3 m/s
Or:
v² = v₀² + 2aΔx
v² = (23 m/s)² + 2(-0.26 m/s²)(1000 m)
v = 3.0 m/s
Or:
Δx = vt − ½ at²
(1000 m) = v (76 s) − ½ (-0.26 m/s²) (76 s)²
v = 3.3 m/s
As you can see, you get slightly different answers depending on which variables you use. Since 1000 m has 1 significant figure, compared to the other variables which have 2 significant figures, I recommend using the first equation.
