0.495 m/s

Explanation

the formula for the terminal velocity is given by:

\begin{gathered} v=\sqrt[]{\frac{2mg}{\sigma AC}} \\ \text{where} \\  \end{gathered}

m is the mass

g is 9.81 m/s²

ρ is density

A is area

C is the drag coefficient

then

Step 1

Let's find the mass

\begin{gathered} \sigma=\frac{m}{v} \\ m=\sigma\cdot v \\ \text{mass}=(2\cdot10^3\frac{\operatorname{kg}}{m^3})\cdot(0.01m)^3 \\ \text{mass}=(2\cdot10^3\frac{\operatorname{kg}}{m^3})\cdot(1\cdot10^{-6}) \\ \text{mass}=2\cdot10^{-3}\operatorname{kg} \\ \text{mass}=0.002\text{ kg } \\ \text{Area}=(0.01\text{ m}\cdot0.01m)=0.0001m^2 \end{gathered}

now, replace

\begin{gathered} v=\sqrt[]{\frac{2mg}{\sigma AC}} \\ v=\sqrt[]{\frac{2(0.002kg)(9.81\text{ }\frac{m}{s^2})}{(2\cdot10^3\frac{\operatorname{kg}}{m^3})(0.0001m^2)0.8}} \\ v=\sqrt[]{\frac{0.03924\frac{\operatorname{kg}m}{s^2}}{0.16\frac{\operatorname{kg}}{m^{}}}} \\ v=\sqrt[]{0.2452\frac{m^2}{s^2}} \\ v=0.495\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}

hence, the answer is 0.495 m/s

5. A hollow cylinder of mass m, radius Rc, and moment of inertia I = mRc2 is pushed against a spring (with spring constant k) co
Makovka662 [10]

Explanation:

(a) Draw a free body diagram of the cylinder at the top of the loop.  At the minimum speed, the normal force is 0, so the only force is weight pulling down.

Sum of forces in the centripetal direction:

∑F = ma

mg = mv²/RL

v = √(g RL)

(b) Energy is conserved.

EE = KE + RE + PE

½ kd² = ½ mv² + ½ Iω² + mgh

kd² = mv² + Iω² + 2mgh

kd² = mv² + (m RC²) ω² + 2mg (2 RL)

kd² = mv² + m RC²ω² + 4mg RL

kd² = mv² + mv² + 4mg RL

kd² = 2mv² + 4mg RL

kd² = 2m (v² + 2g RL)

d² = 2m (v² + 2g RL) / k

d = √[2m (v² + 2g RL) / k]

A system of ideal gas at 22°C undergoes an ischoric process with an internal energy decrease of 4.30 × 10 3 4.30×103 J to a fina
Komok [63]

Answer:

The approximate change in entropy is -14.72 J/K.

Explanation:

Given that,

Temperature = 22°C

Internal energy U=4.30\times10^{3}\ J

Final temperature = 16°C

We need to calculate the approximate change in entropy

Using formula of the entropy

\Delta S=\dfrac{\Delta U}{T}

Where, \Delta U = internal energy

T = average temperature

Put the value in to the formula

\Delta S=\dfrac{-4.30\times10^{3}}{\dfrac{22+273+16+273}{2}}

\Delta S=-14.72\ J/K

Hence, The approximate change in entropy is -14.72 J/K.
