Correct answer choice is :

A) Toward the center of a circle, which changes the direction of motion but not the speed.

Explanation:

A centripetal force is a force that gives a body support a curved way. Its direction is always orthogonal to the motion of the body and towards the fixed point of the instant center of the curve of the path. The direction of the net energy is in the same direction as the acceleration. So for an object traveling in a circle, there must be an internal force acting upon it in order to create its internal acceleration. This is seldom related to as the centripetal force demand.

A block of ice(m = 14.0 kg) with an attached rope is at rest on a frictionless surface. You pull the block with a horizontal for

nadezda [96]

Answer:

a) The weight and the normal force of the block has a magnitude of 137.298 newtons and the pull force exerted on the block has a magnitude of 98 newtons.

b) The final speed of the block of ice is 9.8 meters per second.

Explanation:

a) We need to calculate the weight, normal force from the ground to the block and the pull force. By 3rd Newton's Law we know that normal force is the reaction of the weight of the block of ice on a horizontal.

The weight of the block ( $W$ ), measured in newtons, is:

$W = m\cdot g$ (1)

Where:

$m$ - Mass of the block of ice, measured in kilograms.

$g$ - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

If we know that $m = 14\,kg$ and $g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ , the magnitudes of the weight and normal force of the block of ice are, respectively:

$N = W = (14\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)$

$N = W = 137.298\,N$

And the pull force is:

$F_{pull} = 98\,N$

The weight and the normal force of the block has a magnitude of 137.298 newtons and the pull force exerted on the block has a magnitude of 98 newtons.

b) Since the block of ice is on a frictionless surface and pull force is parallel to the direction of motion and uniform in time, we can apply the Impact Theorem, which states that:

$m\cdot v_{o} +\Sigma F \cdot \Delta t = m\cdot v_{f}$ (2)

Where:

$v_{o}$ , $v_{f}$ - Initial and final speeds of the block, measured in meters per second.

$\Sigma F$ - Horizontal net force, measured in newtons.

$\Delta t$ - Impact time, measured in seconds.

Now we clear the final speed in (2):

$v_{f} = v_{o}+\frac{\Sigma F\cdot \Delta t}{m}$

If we know that $v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}$ , $m = 14\,kg$ , $\Sigma F = 98\,N$ and $\Delta t = 1.40\,s$ , then final speed of the ice block is:

$v_{f} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}+\frac{(98\,N)\cdot (1.40\,s)}{14\,kg}$

$v_{f} = 9.8\,\frac{m}{s}$

The final speed of the block of ice is 9.8 meters per second.

A parallel beam of light in air makes an angle of 43.5 ∘ with the surface of a glass plate having a refractive index of 1.68. Yo

aniked [119]

Answer:

a) 46.5º b) 64.4º

Explanation:

To solve this problem we will use the laws of geometric optics

a) For this part we will use the law of reflection that states that the reflected and incident angle are equal

θ = 43.5º

This angle measured from the surface is

θ_r = 90 -43.5

θ_s = 46.5º

b) In this part the law of refraction must be used

n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂. Sin θ₂

sin θ₂ = n₁ / n₂ sin θ₁

The index of air refraction is n₁ = 1

The angle is this equation is measured between the vertical line called normal, if the angles are measured with respect to the surface

θ_s = 90 - θ

θ_s = 90- 43.5

θ_s = 46.5º

sin θ₂ = 1 / 1.68 sin 46.5

sin θ₂ = 0.4318

θ₂ = 25.6º

The angle with respect to the surface is

θ₂_s = 90 - 25.6

θ₂_s = 64.4º
