Our planet is closed system because there is a limit of how much matter could be exchanged.

Calculate the constant acceleration a in g’s which the catapult of an aircraft carrier must provide to produce a launch velocity

goblinko [34]

The solution to the problem is as follows:

First, I'd convert 188 mi/hr to ft/s. You should end up with about ~275.7 ft/s.

So now write down all the values you know:

Vfinal = 275.7 ft/s

Vinitial = 0 ft/s

distance = 299ft

Now just plug in Vf, Vi and d to solve

Vf^2 = Vi^2 + 2 a d

BTW: That will give you the acceleration in ft/s^2. You can convert that to "g"s by dividing it by 32 since 1 g is 32 ft/s^2.

Suppose we take a 1 m long uniform bar and support it at the 33 cm mark. Hanging a 0.15 kg mass on the short end of the beam res

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

The mass of the beam is 0.074 kg

Explanation:

Given;

length of the uniform bar, = 1m = 100 cm

Set up this system with the given mass and support;

0-----------------33cm-----------------------------------100cm

↓ Δ ↓

0.15kg m

Where;

m is mass of the uniform bar

Apply the principle of moment to determine the value of "m"

sum of anticlockwise moment = sum of clockwise moment

0.15kg(33 - 0) = m(100 - 33)

0.15(33) = m(67)

$m = \frac{0.15kg(33 \ cm)}{67 \ cm}\\\\m = 0.074 \ kg$

Therefore, the mass of the beam is 0.074 kg

Which statements are true for two oppositely charged, isolated parallel plates: C=capacitance, U=stored energy (Q and -Q = charg

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

Explanation:

1) True. The stored energy (U) is proportional to the electric field strength (E). The electric field strength decreases when a dielectric is introduced hence inserting a dielectric decreases U.

2) False. From the formula $C=\frac{Q}{V}=\frac{Q}{Vd}$ , capacitance is inversely proportional to distance hence if the distance is doubled, capacitance decreases.

3) False. As the distance between the electric field and the object increases, its electric field decreases.

4) False. If a dielectric is inserted, the plates are further separated. Q stays the same.

5) True. The electric field strength decreases when a dielectric is introduced and capacitance is inversely proportional to electric field hence Inserting a dielectric increases C

6) True. If a dielectric is inserted, the plates are further separated. Q stays the same.

7) True. When the distance is doubled, U increases

Calculate the maximum absolute uncertainty for R if:

Radda [10]

Answer:

ΔR = 9 s

Explanation:

To calculate the propagation of the uncertainty or absolute error, the variation with each parameter must be calculated and the but of the cases must be found, which is done by taking the absolute value

The given expression is R = 2A / B

the uncertainty is ΔR = | $\frac{dR}{dA}$ | ΔA + | $\frac{ dR}{dB}$ | ΔB
