Two identical blocks are attached to the same massless rope, which is strung around two massless, frictionless pulleys. A massle

ss scale is connected to the same rope and measures the tension in the rope. The two identical blocks are released from the rest. The experiment is then repeated with two new blocks, with masses m1 and m2. When they are released from rest, the system remains at rest, and the scale measures the same tension as in the previous experiment. Find m1 and m2 in terms of m.

Answer:

The value of mass 1, m1= 6/5m

The value of mass 2, m2= 3/5m

Explanation:

case 1:

here tension and the acceleration will be:

for m1;

  • mg-T=ma
  • 2mg - 2T = 2ma  .....1.

for m2:

  • 2T-mg = ma/2 ..... 2.

adding the both equations,

2mg - 2T + 2T-mg = 2ma + ma/2

a = 2/5 g

putting the value of a into the equation 1.

mg - T = m* (2/5)g

T = 3/5 ( mg )

now

case 2:

The two identical blocks are released from the rest, the tension remains the same as the case 1.

so,

for m1:

  • 2T-m2g=0

for m2:

  • 2m2g - 2T =0

adding both equations we get,

2T-m2g + 2m2g - 2T = 0

m2 = m1 / 2

T = m1*g / 2

here we know that

T (case1) = T (case2)

3/5 ( mg ) = m1*g / 2

m1 = 6/5 m

hence

m2 = 3/5 m

The diagram shows the electric field lines surrounding two positive point charges. If the charge on the right were replaced with
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

Explanation:

The wording on some of these choices is very strange; I'm not sure exactly what they are stating. First of all, A. is definitely a choice because if both the charges were opposite, they would be attracted to one another as opposed to be repelled away from one another, as they are when they are both positive. What happens is that the charges go OUT from the positive charge and INTO the negative; so as far as the field lines around both charges would change direction...no; only the direction of the field lines would change on the positive charge (which is the one on the left). In that space where D is filled in by the field lines going OUT of the positive charge and INTO the negative one, the lines there are naturally closer together, and that is the point where the charge is the greatest. So if that is what is meant by the field lines getting closer together, then yes, they do. As far as choice D. again the field lines on the negative charge don't change, only the ones on the positive charge change.

Which of the following is a correct step in the process of adding 8.0 x 10^ -2 and 6.0 x 10^ -3
dybincka [34]

Explanation:

In order to compute correctly the sum of the two terms, we have to rewrite one of them such that they have the same exponent.

The two terms are:

8.0 \cdot 10^{-2}

6.0 \cdot 10^{-3}

For instance, we can re-write the second term such as it also has a power 10^{-2}. In order to do that, we have to move the decimal point one place to the left, therefore:

6.0 \cdot 10^{-3} = 0.6\cdot 10^{-2}

At this point, the two numbers have the same exponent, so we can just add them together by adding the bases and keeping the same exponent, -2:

8.0\cdot 10^{-2} + 0.6 \cdot 10^{-2} = (8.0 + 0.6) \cdot 10^{-2} = 8.6\cdot 10^{-2}

A sphere of radius 5.15 cm and uniform surface charge density +12.1 µC/m2 exerts an electrostatic force of magnitude 35.9 ✕ 10-3
rosijanka [135]
The radius of the sphere is r=5.15 cm=0.0515 m, and its surface is given by
A=4 \pi r^2 = 4 \pi (0.0515 m)^2 = 0.033 m^2

So the total charge on the surface of the sphere is, using the charge density 
\rho=+1.21  \mu C/m^2 = +1.21 \cdot 10^{-6} C/m^2:
Q= \rho A = (+1.21 \cdot 10^{-6} C/m^2)(0.033 m^2)=4.03 \cdot 10^{-8}C

The electrostatic force between the sphere and the point charge is:
F=k_e  \frac{Qq}{r^2}
where
ke is the Coulomb's constant
Q is the charge on the sphere
q=+1.75 \muC = +1.75 \cdot 10^{-6}C is the point charge
r is their separation

Re-arranging the equation, we can find the separation between the sphere and the point charge:
r=\sqrt{ \frac{k_e Q q}{F} }= \sqrt{ \frac{(8.99 \cdot 10^9 Nm^2 C^{-2})(4.03 \cdot 10^{-8} C)(1.75 \cdot 10^{-6}C)}{35.9 \cdot 10^{-3}N} }=0.133 m=13.3 cm

Find the work done in pumping gasoline that weighs 6600 newtons per cubic meter. A cylindrical gasoline tank 3 meters in diamete
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

<em>work done in pumping the entire fuel is 466587 J</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

weight of the gasoline per volume = 6600 N/m^3

diameter of the tank = 3 m

length of the tank = 2 m

height of the tractor tank above the top of the tank = 5 m

work done in pumping fuel to this height = ?

First, we find the volume of the fuel

since the tank is cylindrical,<em> we assume that the fuel within also takes the cylindrical shape.</em>

<em>Also, we assume that the fuel completely fills the tank.</em>

volume of a cylinder = \pi r^{2}l

where r = radius = diameter ÷ 2 = 3/2 = 1.5 m

volume of the cylinder = 3.142 x 1.5^{2} x 2 = 14.139 m^3

we then find the total weight of the fuel in Newton

total weight = (weight per volume) x volume

total weight = 6600 x 14.139 = 93317.4 N

work done = (total weight of the fuel) x (height through which the fuel is pumped)

work done in pumping = 93317.4 x 5 = <em>466587 J</em>
