Answer:

L = 6.032 m

Explanation:

The resistance of a wire is given by

      R = ρ L / A

done ρ is the resistivity of matter, L is the length and A is the area

      L = R A /ρ

the area of ​​a circle is

    A = π r² = π d² / 4

    L = R π d² / 4ρ

in the problem they indicate the resistance of 240 Ω, the diameter of 0.040 mm and the resistivity of 5 10⁻⁷ Ω / m

Let's reduce the diameter to SI units

   d = 0.040 mm (1 m / 1000 mm) = 4 10⁻⁵ m

let's calculate

     L = 240 π (4 10⁻⁵) 2 / (4 5 10⁻⁷)

     L = 6.0319 m

     L = 6.032 m

A 3.0-kg brick rests on a perfectly smooth ramp inclined at 34° above the horizontal. The brick is kept from sliding down the pl
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

d=0.137 m ⇒13.7 cm

Explanation:

Given data

m (Mass)=3.0 kg

α(incline) =34°

Spring Constant (force constant)=120 N/m

d (distance)=?

Solution

F=mg

F=(3.0)(9.8)

F=29.4 N

As we also know that

Force parallel to the incline=FSinα

F=29.4×Sin(34)

F=16.44 N

d(distance)=F/Spring Constant

d(distance)=16.44/120

d(distance)=0.137 m ⇒13.7 cm

Con lắc lò xo có độ cứng k = 100N/m được gắn vật có khối lượng m=0.1kg, kéo vật ra khỏi vị trí cân bằng 1 đoạn 5cm rồi buông tay
Delvig [45]

Answer:

The maximum velocity is 1.58 m/s.

Explanation:

A spring pendulum with stiffness k = 100N/m is attached to an object of mass m = 0.1kg, pulls the object out of the equilibrium position by a distance of 5cm, and then lets go of the hand for the oscillating object. Calculate the achievable vmax.

Spring constant, K = 100 N/m

mass, m = 0.1 kg

Amplitude, A = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Let the angular frequency is w.

w = \sqrt{K}{m}\\\\w = \sqrt{100}{0.1}\\\\w = 31.6 rad/s

The maximum velocity is

v_{max} = w A\\\\v_{max} = 31.6\times 0.05 = 1.58 m/s
