Answer:

Normal force, F = 127 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the television, m = 13 kg

It is sitting on the shelf. We have to find the normal force acting on it. The forces acting on it are normal force and its weight. So, the normal force is given by :

F = mg

g = acceleration due to gravity

$N=13\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2$

F = 127.4 Newton

F = 127 N

Hence, the normal force acting on the television is 127 N

An object of irregular shape has a characteristic length of L = 0.5 m and is maintained at a uniform surface temperature of Ts =

goblinko [34]

Answer:

The value of the average convection coefficient is 20 W/Km².

Explanation:

Given that,

For first object,

Characteristic length = 0.5 m

Surface temperature = 400 K

Atmospheric temperature = 300 K

Velocity = 25 m/s

Air velocity = 5 m/s

Characteristic length of second object = 2.5 m

We have same shape and density of both objects so the reynold number will be same,

We need to calculate the value of the average convection coefficient

Using formula of reynold number for both objects

$R_{1}=R_{2}$

$\dfrac{u_{1}L_{1}}{\eta_{1}}=\dfrac{u_{2}L_{2}}{\eta_{2}}$

$\dfrac{h_{1}L_{1}}{k_{1}}=\dfrac{h_{2}L_{2}}{k_{2}}$

Here, $k_{1}=k_{2}$

$h_{2}=h_{1}\times\dfrac{L_{1}}{L_{2}}$

$h_{2}=\dfrac{q}{T_{2}-T_{1}}\times\dfrac{L_{1}}{L_{2}}$

Put the value into the formula

$h_{2}=\dfrac{10000}{400-300}\times\dfrac{0.5}{2.5}$

$h_{2}=20\ W/Km^2$

Hence, The value of the average convection coefficient is 20 W/Km².

Space-shuttle astronauts experience accelerations of about 35 m/s2 during takeoff. What force does a 75 kg astronaut experience

amm1812

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 2625 N</h3>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 75 × 35

We have the final answer as

You have a double slit experiment, with the distance between the two slits to be 0.025 cm. A screern is 120 cm behind the double

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

The wavelength of the light is 633 nm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance between the two slits d= 0.025 cm

Distance between the screen and slits D = 120 cm

Distance between the slits y= 1.52 cm

We need to calculate the angle

Using formula of double slit

$\tan\theta=\dfrac{y}{D}$

Where, y = Distance between the slits

D = Distance between the screen and slits

Put the value into the formula

$\tan\theta=\dfrac{1.52}{120}$

$\theta=\tan^{-1}\dfrac{1.52}{120}$

$\theta=0.725$

We need to calculate the wavelength

Using formula of wavelength

$d\sin\theta=n\lambda$

Put the value into the formula

$0.025\times\sin0.725=5\times\lambda$

$\lambda=\dfrac{0.025\times10^{-2}\times\sin0.725}{5}$

$\lambda=6.326\times10^{-7}\ m$

$\lambda=633\ nm$

Hence, The wavelength of the light is 633 nm.

On an amusement park ride passengers accelerate straight downward from rest to 22.9 m/s in 2.2 s.

Kamila [148]

Given,

Initial Velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Final Velocity (v) = 25.9 m/s

Time (t) = 2.5 sec

avg. acceleration = ?

avg. acceleration = v-u/t

avg = 25.9/2.5 = 10.36 m/s²

avg = 10.36 m/s²
