One observer stand on a train moving at a constant speed, and one observer stands at rest on the ground. The person on the train

stands at the back of the car and turns on a flashight; the light travels to the front of the car, bounces off a mirror, and returns to the back of the car (assume the light is traveling in a vacuum). the observer on the train measures the time it takes for the light to take this path and knowing the length of the car, calculates the speed of light. What value does he obtain?
a) Greater than c

b) Equal to c

c) Less than c

d) The speed of the light canot be determined without knowing the speed of the train

An aerobatic airplane pilot experiences weightlessness as she passes over the top of a loop-the-loop maneuver. The acceleration
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

The radius of the loop is  20.66 km

Explanation:

let the radius of the loop be r

mass of airplane is m

At the top, the pilot experiences two radial forces, which are

1) Gravitational force is  mg

2) Centrifugal forces mv²/r out of the center

When the pilot experiences no weight,

then, mg = mv²/r

r = v² / g

 = 450² / 9.8

 = 20.66 x 10³3

 = 20.66 km

You pull with a force of 295 N on a rope that is attached to a block of mass 22 kg, and the block slides across the floor at a c
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

Fnet = 0

Explanation:

  • Since the block slides across the floor at constant speed, this means that it's not accelerated.
  • According Newton's 2nd Law, if the acceleration is zero, the net force on the sliding mass must be zero.
  • This means that there must be a friction force opposing to the horizontal component of the applied force, equal in magnitude to it:

       F_{appx} = F_{app} * cos \theta = 295 N * cos 35 = 242 N  (1)

  • In the vertical direction, the block is not accelerated either, so the sum of the normal force and the vertical component of the applied force, must be equal in magnitude to the force of gravity on the block:

      F_{appy} = F_{app} * cos \theta = 295 N * sin 35 = 169 N  (2)

⇒    169 N + Fn = Fg = 216 N  (3)

  • This means that there must be a normal force equal to the difference between Fappy and Fg, as follows:
  • Fn = 216 N - 169 N = 47  N (4)

An electric motor has an effective resistance of 29. 4 ω and an inductive reactance of 42. 6 ω. When working under load. the rms voltage across the alternating source is 442 v.  The rms current will be  8.54 A

AC stands for “Alternating Current,” meaning voltage or current that changes polarity or direction, respectively, over time. AC electromechanical generators, known as alternators, are of simpler construction than DC electromechanical generators.

RMS or root mean square current/voltage of the alternating current/voltage represents the D.C current/voltage that dissipates the same amount of power as the average power dissipated by the alternating current/voltage. For sinusoidal oscillations, the RMS value equals peak value divided by the square root of 2.

I (RMS) = RMS voltage / \sqrt{R^{2}+ X_{L} { ^{2}  }

           =  442 / \sqrt{29.4^{2} + 42.6^{2}  }

           = 442 / \sqrt{864.36 + 1814.76}

           = 442 / \sqrt{2679.12}

           = 8.54 A
