A ball with a mass of 0.5 kg is attached to one end of a light rod that is 0.5 m long. The other end of the rod is loosely pinne

d at a frictionless pivot. The rod is raised until it is vertical, with the ball above the pivot. The rod is released and the ball moves in a vertical circle. The tension in the rod as the ball moves through the bottom of the circle is closest to:

Answer:

The tension in the rod as the ball moves through the bottom circle is 9.8 N

Explanation:

When the ball is released from rest, the centripetal force equals the weight of the ball. So mv²/r = mg where m = mass of ball = 0.5 kg, v = speed of ball, r = radius of vertical circle = length of rod = 0.5 m and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

v = √gr = √9.8 m/s² × 0.5 m = √4.9 = 2.21 m/s

Now at the bottom of the circle T - mg = mv²/r where T = tension in the rod

T = m(g + v²/r)

= m(g + (√gr)²/r)

= m(g+ gr/r)

= m(g + g)

= 2mg

= 2 × 0.5 kg × 9.8 m/s²

= 9.8 N

So, the tension in the rod as the ball moves through the bottom circle is 9.8 N

Which of the following could be used to sterilize plastic petri plates in a plastic wrapper? A) ultraviolet radiation B) microwa
Ivahew [28]

Gamma radiation could be used to sterilize plastic petri plates in a plastic wrapper.

Answer: Option E

<u>Explanation: </u>

It is known that radioactive radiations have greater ionizing powers compared to other electromagnetic radiations. Among the radioactive radiations, gamma rays are the most ionizing radiation.

So they are widely used in sterilizing process. As the penetration power of gamma is more compared to alpha and beta, in order to kill microorganisms gamma radiations are used.

When plastic petri plates wrapped with plastic are bombarded or sterilizing with gamma rays, the rays will ionise the micro-organism. Thus mutilating their DNA and preventing their reproduction.

A ball having a mass of 0.20 kilograms is placed at a height of 3.25 meters. If it is dropped from this height, what will be the
asambeis [7]
EC_1 + EP_1 = EC2 + EP_2

EC_2 = 0

EC_2 = EP_1 - EP_2

EC_2 = mg(H_1 - H_2) = 0.20 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * (3.25 m - 1.5m) = 3.43 J

Twenty grams of a solid at 70°C is place in 100 grams of a fluid at 20°C. Thermal equilibrium is reached at 30°C.
zaharov [31]

Answer:

c. is more than that of the fluid.

Explanation:

This problem is based on the conservation of energy and the concept of thermal equilibrium

heat= m s \Delta T&#10;

m= mass

s= specific heat

\DeltaT=change in temperature

let s1= specific heat of solid and s2= specific heat of liquid

then

Heat lost by solid= 20(s_1)(70-30)=800s_1&#10;

Heat gained by fluid=100(s_2)(30-20)=1000s_2&#10;

Now heat gained = heat lost

therefore,

1000 S_2=800 S_1

S_1=1.25 S_2

so the specific heat of solid is more than that of the fluid.

How many atoms are there in 3.4moles if helium ,show the calculation
prohojiy [21]
Answer: 20.4752789138x x  10^23 atoms
To count how many atoms in moles you need to know Avogadro's number. Avogadro's number dictate that for every mole there is 6.022140857 × 10^23 molecule/atoms.
Then 3.4 moles of helium will be 3.4x 6.022140857 x  10^23 atoms= 20.4752789138x x  10^23 atoms

How much money would be saved by turning off one 100.0-W lightbulb 3.0 h/day for 365 days if the
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

the money that would be saved is $13.14.

Explanation:

Given;

power consumed by the light bulb, P = 100 W = 0.1 kW

time of running the bulb, t = 3 hours for 365 days = 1,095 hours

cost rate of power consumption, C = $0.12 per kWh

Energy consumed by the light bulb for the given days;

E = Pt

E = 0.1 kW  x 1,095 hr

E = 109.5 kWh

Cost of energy consumed = 109.5 kWh   x   $0.12 / kWh

                                            = $13.14

Therefore, the money that would be saved is $13.14.
