The driver of a 3000 lb. car, coasting down a hill, sees a red light at the bottom, and must stop. His speed when he applies the brakes is 60 mph, and he is 100 feet (vertically) above the bottom of the hill. (a)How much energy as heat must be dissipated by the brakes if we neglect wind resistance and other frictional effects

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

60 mph = 60 x 1760 x 3 / (60 x 60) ft /s

speed of car , v = 88 ft /s

kinetic energy of car = 1/2 m v²

= .5 x 3000 x 88²

= 11616 x 10³ poundal - foot

Potential energy = mgh

= 3000 x 32 x 100

=  9600 x 10³ poundal - foot

Total energy = potential energy + kinetic energy

= ( 11616 + 9600 )x 10³

= 21216 x 10³ poundal - foot .

This energy is dissipated as heat when brakes are applied on the car to stop the car .

A balloon with a positive charge will stick to a wall that has a negative charge.
What force causes this?
A. Gravity
B. Electric force
C. Magnetic force
D. Air gesistance

Answers

Answer : B. electric Force

The reason that the balloon will stick to the wall is because the negative charges in the balloon will make the electrons in the wall move to the other side of their atoms (like charges repel) and this leaves the surface of the wall positively charged.

A student stretches a spring, attaches a 1.20 kg mass to it, and releases the mass from rest on a frictionless surface. The resulting oscillation has a period of 0.750 s and an amplitude of 15.0 cm. Determine the oscillation frequency, the spring constant, and the speed of the mass when it is halfway to the equilibrium position.

Answers

Answer:

the speed of the mass when it is halfway to the equilibrium position is 1.26 m/s

Explanation:

Given that;

mass of the object m = 1.20 kg

period of oscillation = 0.750 s

Amplitude ( A/x) = 15.0 cm = 0.15 m

now;

a) Determine the oscillation frequency;

oscillation frequency f = 1/T

we substitute

f = 1 / 0.750 s

f = 1.33 Hz

Therefore, the oscillation frequency is 1.33 Hz

b) Determine the spring constant;

we solve for spring constant from the following expression;

T = 2π√(m/k)

k = 4π²m / T²

so we substitute

k = (4π² × 1.20) / (0.750)²

k = 47.3741 / 0.5625

k =  84.22 N/m

Therefore, the spring constant is 84.22 N/m

c) determine the speed of the mass when it is halfway to the equilibrium position

So, at equilibrium, the energy is equal to K.E

such that;

1/2mv² = 1/2kx²

mv² = kx²

v² = kx² / m

v = √( kx²/m)

we substitute

v = √( 84.22×(0.15 m)²/ 1.2 )

v = √( 1.89495 / 1.2 )

v = √ 1.579125

v = 1.26 m/s  

Therefore, the speed of the mass when it is halfway to the equilibrium position is 1.26 m/s

Suppose you had 10 identical molecules enclosed by a box. At a given instant, one molecule has an energy of 100 Joules, and the others are all stationary. (A) What is the average kinetic energy of the 10 molecules

Answers

Answer:

the average kinetic energy of the 10 molecules is 10 J.

Explanation:

Given;

energy on one molecule in motion, E = 100 J

number of molecules, n = 10

(A) The average kinetic energy of the 10 molecules

since the remaining 9 molecules are at rest, their kinetic energy = 0

[tex]E_{Avg} = \frac{E_1 + E_9}{10} \\\\E_{Avg} = \frac{100J+ 0}{10} \\\\E_{Avg} = \frac{100J}{10} \\\\E_{Avg} = 10J[/tex]

Therefore, the average kinetic energy of the 10 molecules is 10 J.

Peter, a 100 kg basketball player, lands on his feet after completing a slam dunk and then immediately jumps up again to celebrate his basket. When his feet first touch the floor after the dunk, his velocity is 5 m/s downward; when his feet leave the floor 0.50 s later, as he jumps back up, his velocity is 4 m/s upward. a. What is the impulse exerted on Peter during this 0.50 s

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Impulse = change in momentum

Initial momentum = mass x initial velocity = 100 x 5 = 500 kg m/s

final momentum = mass x final velocity = 100 x - 4 = -400 ( - ve sign due to reversal of direction )

change in momentum = final momentum - initial momentum

= - 400 - 500 = - 900 kg m/s .

As it is - ve , it acts upwards .

So magnitude of  impulse on Perter = 900 kg m/s

(a) Use this model and the data provided to estimate the density of the nucleus of an atom.
(b) Compare your result with the density of a material such as iron. What do your result and comparison suggest about the structure of matter?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Let n be number of total number of nucleons ( protons + neutrons )

Total mass inside nucleus =  n x 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ Kg

volume of nucleus = 4/3 π r³

= 1.33 x 3.14 x (10⁻¹⁵)³ m

= 4.17 x 10⁻⁴⁵ m³

Density = mass / volume

=  n x 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ / 4.17 x 10⁻⁴⁵

= .4 n x 10¹⁸ kg / m³

or of the order of 10¹⁸ kg/m³

b )

Density of iron = 7900 kg / m³

or of the order of 10⁴ kg / m³

So nucleus of a matter  is about 10¹⁴ times denser than iron .

A single, monochromatic indigo light source is shined through an etched, flat prism with a slit separation of .0250mm. The resulting interference pattern is viewed on a screen 1.25m away. The third maximum is found to be 6.6cm from the central maximum. What is the wavelength of the indigo light

Answers

Answer:

  λ = 440 nm

Explanation:

The phenomenon of constructive interference is described by the expressions

          d sin θ= m λ                    (1)

where d is the separation of the slits d = 0.0250 mm = 2.50 10⁻⁵ m, lam is the wavelength of the incident radiation and m is an integer indicating the order of interference

let's use trigonometry to find the angle

          tan θ = y / L

where L is the distance to the screen L = 1.25 m

in general interference experiments angles are very small

         tan θ = [tex]\frac{sin \ \theta }{cos \ \theta}[/tex]

         ten θ = sin θ

substituting

           

         sin θ = y / L

we substitute 1

          d y / L = m λ

          λ = [tex]\frac{ d \ y }{m \ L}[/tex]

in the exercise indicate

        m = 3

         y = 6.6 cm = 6.6 10-2 m

we calculate

          λ = 2.50 10⁻⁵ 6.6 10⁻² /( 3   1.25)

          λ = 4.4 10⁻⁷ m

let's reduce to nm

          λ = 4.4 10⁻⁷ m (10⁹ nm / 1 m)

          λ = 440 nm

.1 An 8-ft 3 tank contains air at an initial temperature of 808F and initial pressure of 100 lbf/in. 2 The tank develops a small hole, and air leaks from the tank at a constant rate of 0.03 lb/s for 90 s until the pressure of the air remaining in the tank is 30 lbf/in. 2 Employing the ideal gas model, determine the final temperature, in 8F, of the air remaining in the tank

Answers

Correct temperature is 80°F

Answer:

T_f = 38.83°F

Explanation:

We are given;

Volume; V = 8 ft³

Initial Pressure; P_i = 100 lbf/in² = 100 × 12² lbf/ft²

Initial temperature; T_i = 80°F = 539.67 °R

Time for outlet flow; t_o = 90 s

Mass flow rate at outlet; m'_o = 0.03 lb/s

Final pressure; P_f = 30 lbf/in² = 30 × 12² lbf/ft²

Now, from ideal gas equation,

Pv = RT

Where v is initial specific volume

R is ideal gas constant = 53.33 ft.lbf/°R

Thus;

v = RT/P

v_i = 53.33 × 539.67/(100 × 12²)

v_i = 2 ft³/lb

Formula for initial mass is;

m_i = V/v_i

m_i = 8/2

m_i = 4 lb

Now change in mass is given as;

Δm = m'_o × t_o

Δm = 0.03 × 90

Δm = 2.7 lb

Now,

m_f = m_i - Δm

Thus; m_f = 4 - 2.7

m_f = 1.3 lb

Similarly in above;

v_f = V/m_f

v_f = 8/1.3

v_f = 6.154 ft³/lb

Again;

Pv = RT

Thus;

T_f = P_f•v_f/R

T_f = (30 × 12² × 6.154)/53.33

T_f = 498.5°R

Converting to °F gives;

T_f = 38.83°F

The final temperature, in °F, of the air remaining in the tank is 38.83°F

It is given that volume V = 8 ft³

Initial Pressure Pi = 100 lbf/in² = 100 × 12² lbf/ft²

Initial temperature Ti = 80°F = 539.67 °R

Time for outlet flow; to = 90 s

Mass flow rate at outlet; m'o = 0.03 lb/s

Final pressure; Pf = 30 lbf/in² = 30 × 12² lbf/ft²

Now, from ideal gas equation,

Pv = RT

where v is initial volume, R is ideal gas constant = 53.33 ft.lbf/°R

[tex]v = RT/P\\ \\ v_i = 53.33 *539.67/(100*12^2)\\ \\ v_i = 2 ft^3/lb [/tex]

The initial mass is;

[tex]m_i = V/v_i\\ \\ m_i = 8/2\\ \\ m_i = 4 lb [/tex]

Now change in mass is given as;

Δm = [tex]m'_o*t_o[/tex]

Δm = 0.03 × 90

Δm = 2.7 lb

[tex]m_f[/tex] = [tex]m_i[/tex] - Δm

[tex]m_f[/tex] = 4 - 2.7

[tex]m_f[/tex] = 1.3 lb

now,

[tex]v_f = V/m_f\\ \\ v_f = 8/1.3\\ \\ v_f = 6.154 f^3/lb [/tex]

From the gas equation

Pv = RT

Final state:

[tex]T_f = P_fv_f/R\\\\ T_f = (30*12^2*6.154)/53.33\\\\ T_f = 498.5^oR [/tex]

Converting to °F:

[tex]T_f[/tex] = 38.83°F is the final temperature.

A wheelbarrow is pushed 10 meters with a force of 75 N for 30 seconds. What is the work done?
How much power is needed?

Answers

I’ll figure this out just give me 5 minutes
Work done= force(N) x distance moved in the direction of force. (m)
Power= work done/ time taken.
Work done = 75N x 10m
= 750Nm/ 750J( Joules)* joules is the SI unit of work.

Power is the rate at which work is done. Suppose two men were carrying a heavy box, man A has a force of 10N , man B has a force of 10N and both carries the box of a distance 3m. Both have done the same work. But if suppose man A takes 2 seconds to carry the box while man B takes 3 seconds, their power needed are different.
Man A , power= 30J/ 2s which is 15 joules per second ( SI unit of power is “watts”)
Man B, power= 30J/ 3s which is 10 joules per second. MAN A HAS MORE POWER.

so, the work done for the wheelbarrow is 750J, divide it by the time taken( 30 seconds) 750J/30s= 25 J/s. <— this is the power needed.

Light-rail passenger trains that provide transportation within and between cities speed up and slow down with a nearly constant (and quite modest) acceleration. A train travels through a congested part of town at 4.0 m/s . Once free of this area, it speeds up to 11 m/s in 8.0 s. At the edge of town, the driver again accelerates, with the same acceleration, for another 16 s to reach a higher cruising speed. Part A What is the final speed

Answers

Answer:

25 m/s

Explanation:

Given that:

Initial speed, u = 4 m/s

Final velocity, V = 11 m/s

Time, t = 8 seconds

t2, = 16 seconds

Acceleration, a= (change in velocity) / time interval

a = (11 - 4) / 8

a = 7 / 8 = 0.875m/s²

Final velocity, v2 ;

Acceleration * t2

0.875 * 16 = 14

V2 = 14 m/s

Final speed : v + v2 = (11 + 14)m/s = 25m/s

A 6.00 nC is 2.00 m from a 3.00 nC charge. Find the magnitude of the electric field at a point midway between
the two charges? Which way does the electric field point, towards the positive or the negative charge?

Answers

Answer:

E_total = 26.97 N/C

Electric field points towards the positive charge

Explanation:

We are given;

Charge 1; q1 = 6 nC = 6 × 10^(-9) C

Charge 2; q2 = 3 nC = 3 × 10^(-9) C

Distance between both charges; R_o = 2 m

Since we want to find electric field midway, the distance midway is r = 2/2 = 1 m

Using coulumbs law;

E = kq/r²

Where k is a constant with a value of 8.99 × 10^(9) N.m/C²

Thus;

E1 = kq1/r²

E1 = (8.99 × 10^(9) × 6 × 10^(-9))/1²

E1 = 53.94 N/C

Similarly;

E2 = kq2/r²

E2 = (8.99 × 10^(9) × 3 × 10^(-9))/1²

E2 = 26.97 N/C

Since both electric fields are positive, it means that they are both moving towards the midpoint of the distance between both charges.

This implies they will have opposite directions.

Thus, total electric field at the midway point is;

E_total = E1 - E2

E_total = 53.94 - 26.97

E_total = 26.97 N/C

Desperado, a roller coaster built in Nevada, has a mass of 800 kg. It also has a vertical drop of 225 feet down the first hill. The roller coaster is designed so that the speed of the cars at the end of this drop is 80 mi/h. Assume the cars are at rest at the start of the drop. How much work is done by friction on the car as it drops down the hill

Answers

Answer:

the work done by friction on the car is 524,582 J.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the roller coaster, m = 800 kg

distance moved by the coaster, d = 225 ft = 68.58 m

final velocity of the coaster, v = 80 mi/h = 35.76 m/s

The time taken for the coaster to drop down the hill is calculated as;

[tex]t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} } \\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{2\ \times \ 68.58}{9.8} } \\\\t = 3.74 \ s[/tex]

The work done by friction on the car is calculated as;

[tex]W =F\ \times \ d = \frac{mv}{t} \times \ d\\\\W = \frac{800 \ \times \ 35.76 }{3.74} \times \ 68.58\\\\W = 524,582 \ J[/tex]

Therefore, the work done by friction on the car is 524,582 J.
