What do Newton's three laws state?

1 answer:

8 0

In the first law, we understand that an object will not change its motion unless a force acts on it. The second law states that the force on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration. And, finally, the third law states that there is an equal and opposite reaction for every action.

A sample of an ideal gas has a volume of 2.37 L at 2.80×102 K and 1.15 atm. Calculate the pressure when the volume is 1.68 L and

iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

$p_2 = 1.76 atm$

Explanation:

given data:

v_1 = 2.37 L

v_2 = 1.68 L

p_1 =1.15 atm

p_2 = ?

t_1 = 280 K

t_2 = 304 K

from Gas Law Equation

, WE HAVE

$\frac{p_1 v_1}{t_1} =\frac{p_2 v_2}{t_2}$

Putting the values

$\frac{1.15*2.37}{280} =\frac{p_2 *1.68}{304}$

$9.733*10^{-3} = \frac{p_2 *1.68}{304}$

$9.733*10^{-3}*304 = p_2*1.68$

$\frac{9.733*10^{-3}*304}{1.68} =p_2$

$p_2= 1.76 atm$

A bungee jumper with mass 65.0 kg jumps from a high bridge. After reaching his lowest point, he oscillates up and down, hitting

ololo11 [35]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of a bungee jumper is 65 kg

The time period of the oscillation is 38 s, hitting a low point eight more times.It means its time period is

$T=\dfrac{38}{8}\\\\T=4.75\ s$

After many oscillations, he finally comes to rest 25.0 m below the level of the bridge.

For an oscillating object, the time period is given by :

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}$

k = spring stiffness constant

So,

$k=\dfrac{4\pi ^2m}{T^2}\\\\k=\dfrac{4\pi ^2\times 65}{(4.75)^2}\\\\k=113.43\ N/m$

When the cord is in air,

mg=kx

x = the extension in the cord

$x=\dfrac{mg}{k}\\\\x=\dfrac{65\times 9.8}{113.6}\\\\x=5.6\ m$

So, the unstretched length of the bungee cord is equal to 25 m - 5.6 m = 19.4 m

A positively charged wire with uniform charge density +λ lies along the x-axis and a negatively charged wire with uniform charge

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

$\vec{E} = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi\epsilon_0}[\frac{1}{y}(\^y) - \frac{1}{x}(\^x)]$

Explanation:

The electric field created by an infinitely long wire can be found by Gauss' Law.

$\int \vec{E}d\vec{a} = \frac{Q_{enc}}{\epsilon_0}\\E2\pi r h = \frac{\lambda h}{\epsilon_0}\\\vec{E} = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi\epsilon_0 r} \^r$

For the electric field at point (x,y), the superposition of electric fields created by both lines should be calculated. The distance 'r' for the first wire is equal to 'y', and equal to 'x' for the second wire.

$\vec{E} = \vec{E}_1 + \vec{E}_2 = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi\epsilon_0 y}(\^y) + \frac{-\lambda}{2\pi\epsilon_0 x}(\^x)\\\vec{E} = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi\epsilon_0 y}(\^y) - \frac{\lambda}{2\pi\epsilon_0 x}(\^x)\\\vec{E} = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi\epsilon_0}[\frac{1}{y}(\^y) - \frac{1}{x}(\^x)]$
