You have a ball with a mass 1.3 kg tied to a rope, and you spin it in a circle of radius 1.8m. If the ball is moving at a speed

of 3 m/s, what is the centripetal force action on the ball?

Answer:

6.5\; {\rm N}.

Explanation:

When an object travel at a speed of v in a circle of radius r, the (centripetal) acceleration of that object would be a = (v^{2} / r).

In this question, the ball is travelling at v = 3\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}} in a circle of radius r = 1.8\; {\rm m}. The (centripetal) acceleration of this ball would be:

\begin{aligned} a &= \frac{v^{2}}{r} \\ &= \frac{(3\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}})^{2}}{1.8\; {\rm m}} \\ &= 5\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-2}}\end{aligned}.

By Newton's Laws of Motion, for an object of mass m, if the acceleration of that object is a, the net force on that object would be m\, a. Since the acceleration of this ball is a = 5\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-2}}, the net force on this ball would be:

\begin{aligned} F &= m\, a \\ &= 1.3\; {\rm kg} \times 5\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-2}} \\ &= 6.5\; {\rm N} \end{aligned}.

g How many diffraction maxima are contained in a region of the Fraunhofer single-slit pattern, subtending an angle of 2.12°, for
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

2

Explanation:

We know that in the Fraunhofer single-slit pattern,

maxima is given by

a\text{sin}\theta=\frac{2N+1}{2}\lambda

Given values

θ=2.12°

slit width a= 0.110 mm.

wavelength λ= 582 nm

Now plugging values to calculate N we get

0.110\times10^{-3}\text{sin}2.12=(\frac{2N+1}{2})582\times10^{-9}

Solving the above equation we get

we N= 2.313≅ 2

A heat engine performs (245 + A) J of work in each cycle while also delivering (142 + B) J of heat to the cold reservoir. Find t
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

The value is \eta  =  54.4 \%

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The work input is  W = ( 245 + A ) \  J

     The heat delivered is Q =  (142 + B) \  J

      The value of A is  A =  14

        The value of B  is  B  = 72

Generally the efficiency of the heat engine is mathematically represented as

          \eta  =  \frac{W}{Q_t}

Here  Q_t is the total out energy produce by the heat engine and this is mathematically represented as

           Q_t= Q + W

=>         Q_t=  245 + A + 142 + B

=>         Q_t=  390 + A+B

So

               \eta  =  \frac{245 + A }{390 + A+ B}

=>          \eta  =  0.544

=>          \eta  =  0.544 *100

=>          \eta  =  54.4 \%
