A 100 kg bag of sand has a weight on 100 N. When dropped its acceleration is what?

Physics

Answer:

<h2>Gravity.</h2>

Explanation:

If you are holding the bag of sand, the only acceleration in the system is gravity, because is a vertical movement. So, a = 9.81 \frac{m}{s^{2} }

We are assuming that is vertical movement because is say ''dropped'', which is a term used in Free-fall models, where acceleration is constant.

100N describes the weight of the sandbag, while 100kg is the mass of the sandbag.

To calculate acceleration, divide your weight by the mass, thus the accleration is:

100N/100kg = 1(m/s^2)

What is the peak emf generated by a 0.250 m radius, 500-turn coil is rotated one-fourth of a revolution in 4.17 ms, originally h
zysi [14]

Complete question:

What is the peak emf generated by a 0.250 m radius, 500-turn coil is rotated one-fourth of a revolution in 4.17 ms, originally having its plane perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field 0.425 T. (This is 60 rev/s.)

Answer:

The peak emf generated by the coil is 15.721 kV

Explanation:

Given;

Radius of coil, r = 0.250 m

Number of turns, N = 500-turn

time of revolution, t = 4.17 ms = 4.17 x 10⁻³ s

magnetic field strength, B = 0.425 T

Induced peak emf = NABω

where;

A is the area of the coil

A = πr²

ω is angular velocity

ω = π/2t = (π) /(2 x 4.17 x 10⁻³) = 376.738 rad/s =  60 rev/s

Induced peak emf = NABω

                               = 500 x (π x 0.25²) x 0.425 x 376.738

                               = 15721.16 V

                               = 15.721 kV

Therefore, the peak emf generated by the coil is 15.721 kV

As a wave moves through a medium, particles are displaced and (2 points)
Scorpion4ik [409]

As a wave moves through a medium, particles are displaced and return to their normal position after the wave passes.

Explanation:

A wave is a traveling disturbance that  carries energy from one location to  another. All waves move in straight lines  outward and away from the source of a  disturbance. Like the radiating circular  ripples, the waves of water carry energy  away from where a rock was dropped into  the pond.

Waves can move as a single pulse or as a continuous series of waves, carrying  energy away from its source. A pulse is a single disturbance, wave, or ripple that moves  outward from the point of disturbance. A train of waves are many waves emitted over and  over again from a single source.

As waves travel through matter, they will temporarily  displace the molecules or particles in matter up-and-down  or side-to-side. Waves move the energy but they do not  carry the matter with them longitudinally as they move  through matter. Once the disturbance passes, the medium  will return to its original state or position.

Therefore, as the waves move through a medium, particles are displaced and return to their normal position after the wave passes.

Neutron stars consist only of neutrons and have unbelievably high densities. a typical mass and radius for a neutron star might
Tanya [424]
<span>Density is 3.4x10^18 kg/m^3 Dime weighs 1.5x10^12 pounds The definition of density is simply mass per volume. So let's divide the mass of the neutron star by its volume. First, we need to determine the volume. Assuming the neutron star is a sphere, the volume will be 4/3 pi r^3, so 4/3 pi 1.9x10^3 = 4/3 pi 6.859x10^3 m^3 = 2.873x10^10 m^3 Now divide the mass by the volume 9.9x10^28 kg / 2.873x10^10 m^3 = 3.44588x10^18 kg/m^3 Since we only have 2 significant digits in our data, round to 2 significant digits, giving 3.4x10^18 kg/m^3 Now to figure out how much the dime weighs, just multiply by the volume of the dime. 3.4x10^18 kg/m^3 * 2.0x10^-7 m^3 = 6.8x10^11 kg And to convert from kg to lbs, multiply by 2.20462, so 6.8x10^11 kg * 2.20462 lb/kg = 1.5x10^12 lb</span>
