1 answer:
SOVA2 [1]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Bouyancy

Explanation:

Bouyancy occurs when the upthrust exerted on an object is equal to the weight of object displaced. It is mostly applicable to low density objects for example balloon. When balloon is displaced in water, it floats. This is due to the effect of the upthrust acting on the balloon which allows the balloon to float and which is opposite the weight.

Note that the weight acts downwards the object while the upthrust always acts opposite (upward)

Find the force between 2C and -1C separated by a distance 1m. Indicate if it is an attractive force (negative) or a repulsive fo
telo118 [61]

Answer:

Explanation:

Its definitely an Attractive force since the two charges are Unlike.

From Coulombs Law

F=kq1q2/R²

Given

K=9x10^9

R=1m

q1=2C

q2=-1C

F=(9x10^9 x 2 x -1)/1²

F= - 1.8x10^10N. (Attractive).

How is work related to potential energy and kinetic energy?

Featured snippet from the web
Work is the force on the object as it changes a distance. Interestingly, as work is done on an object, potential energy can be stored in that object. For example, if you carry a load up the stairs. Now that load will have potential energy that can be transformed into kinetic energy and so on

A wire of length 5mm and Diameter 2m extends by 0.25 when a force of 50N was use. calculate the
bazaltina [42]

Answer and Explanation:

Data provided in the question

Force = 50N

Length = 5mm

diameter = 2.0m = 2\times 10^{-3}

Extended by = 0.25mm = 0.25\times 10^{-3}

Based on the above information, the calculation is as follows

a. The Stress of the wire is

= \frac{force\ applied}{area\ of \ circle}

here area of circle = perpendicular to the are i.e cross-sectional  i.e

= \frac{\pi d^{2}}{4}

= \frac{\pi(2\times 10^{-3})^2}{4}

Now place these above values to the above formula

= \frac{4\times 50}{\pi\times 4 \times 10^{-6}} \\\\ = \frac{50}{\pi}

= 15.92 MPa

As 1Pa = 1 by N m^2

So,

MPa = 10^6 N m^2

b. Now the strain of the wire is

= \frac{Change\ in\ length}{initial\ length} \\\\ = \frac{0.25\times 10^{-3}}{5}

= 5 \times 10^{-5}

An ambulance is traveling east at 61.9 m/s. Behind it there is a car traveling along the same direction at 28.5 m/s. The ambulan
inessss [21]

Answer: 0.4 m

Explanation:

Given

Speed of ambulance, vs = 61.9 m/s

Speed of car = 28.5 m/s

Frequency of ambulance siren, f = 694 Hz

Velocity of sound in air, v = 343 m/s

With speed of ambulance being (61.9 m/s) -> We solve using

fd = f(v + vr) / (v - vs), where vr = 0

fd = 694 * (343 + 0) / (343 - 61.9)

fd = 694 * (343 / 281.1)

fd = 694 * 1.22

fd = 847 Hz

Recall,

λ = v/f

λ = 343/847

λ = 0.4 m

Therefore, the wavelength of the sound of the ambulance’s siren if you are standing at the position of the car is 0.4 m

Hi there!

The maximum deformation of the bumper will occur when the car is temporarily at rest after the collision. We can use the work-energy theorem to solve.

Initially, we only have kinetic energy:

KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

KE = Kinetic Energy (J)
m = mass (1060 kg)
v = velocity (14.6 m/s)

Once the car is at rest and the bumper is deformed to the maximum, we only have spring-potential energy:

U_s = \frac{1}{2}kx^2

k = Spring Constant (1.14 × 10⁷ N/m)

x = compressed distance of bumper (? m)

Since energy is conserved:

E_I = E_f\\\\KE = U_s\\\\\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{1}{2}kx^2

We can simplify and solve for 'x'.

mv^2 = kx^2\\\\x = \sqrt{\frac{mv^2}{k}}

Plug in the givens and solve.

x = \sqrt{\frac{(1060)(14.6^2)}{(1.14*10^7)}} = \boxed{0.0198 m}
