Answer:

Weight of the body in air = 20gf ( Wa)

Weight of the body in water = 18gf ( Ws)

Weight of the body in liquid =18.2gf ( Wl)

Now,

The loss of weight in the water = 20 - 18 or, 2 gf

So the relative density of the body is = Wa / ( wa - ws )

= 20 / 2

= 10

2) The weight loss in liquid = 20 - 18.2 or, 1.8 gf

So the relative density of the liquid is =( Wa - Wl ) / ( Wa - Ws )

= 1.8 / 2

= 0.9

You are investigating an elevator accident which happened in a tall building. An elevator in this building is attached to a stro

Advocard [28]

Answer:

a) F = 2250 Ib

b) F = 550 Ib

c) new max force ( F newmax ) = 2850 Ib

Explanation:

A) The force the wall of the elevator shaft exert on the motor if the elevator starts from rest and goes up

max capacity of elevator = 24000 Ibs

counterweight = 1000 Ibs

To calculate the force (F) :

we first calculate the Tension using this relationship

Counterweight (1000) - T = ( 1000 / g ) ( g/4 )

Hence T = 750 Ib

next determine F

750 + F - 2400 = 2400 / 4

hence F = 2250 Ib

B ) calculate Tension first

T - 1000 = ( 1000/g ) ( g/4)

T = 1250 Ib

F = 2400 -1250 - 2400/ 4

F = 550 Ib

C ) determine design limit

Max = 2400 * 1.2 = 2880 Ib

750 + new force - 2880 = 2880 / 4

new max force ( F newmax ) = 2850 Ib

A stretched string has a mass per unit length of 5.40 g/cm and a tension of 17.5 N. A sinusoidal wave on this string has an ampl

kondaur [170]

Answer:

Part a)

$y_m = 0.157 mm$

part b)

$k = 101.8 rad/m$

Part c)

$\omega = 579.3 rad/s$

Part d)

here since wave is moving in negative direction so the sign of $\omega$ must be positive

Explanation:

As we know that the speed of wave in string is given by

$v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{m/L}}$

so we have

$T = 17.5 N$

$m/L = 5.4 g/cm = 0.54 kg/m$

now we have

$v = \sqrt{\frac{17.5}{0.54}}$

$v = 5.69 m/s$

now we have

Part a)

$y_m$ = amplitude of wave

$y_m = 0.157 mm$

part b)

$k = \frac{\omega}{v}$

here we know that

$\omega = 2\pi f$

$\omega = 2\pi(92.2) = 579.3 rad/s$

so we have

$k = \frac{579.3}{5.69}$

$k = 101.8 rad/m$

Part c)

$\omega = 579.3 rad/s$

Part d)

here since wave is moving in negative direction so the sign of $\omega$ must be positive

Compare and contrast electric potential energy and electric potential difference? Explain.

forsale [732]

Answer:

Electric Potential Energy:

The energy that is needed to move a charge against an electric firld is called Electric Potential Energy

Electric Potential Difference:

The amount of work done in carrying a unit charge from one point to an other in an electric field is called Electric Potential Difference.

Relation:

Relation between Electric potential and electrical potential energy is given by

$\delta V=\frac{PE}{q}$

Here PE represents Electric potential energy

and $\delta V$ is Electric potential difference

it means electric potential difference is the difference in electric potential energy divided by the charge.

What will happen if we put a magnet in cold water

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

cold water strengthens the magnetic attractive force.

Explanation:

The molecules within the magnet will move slower because they have less kinetic energy,so there is less vibration within the magnets molecules.
