Answer:

(a) Time period is 8.85 s

(b) Normal force at the highest point is 390.2 N

(c) Normal force at the lowest point is 1217 N

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of person, m = 82.0 kg

Radius of the wheel, r = 10.0 m

Speed of the wheel, v = 7.10 m/s

(a) Time period of the circular motion is determine by the relation:

T=\frac{2\pi r}{v}

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

T=\frac{2\pi\times10 }{7.10}

T = 8.85 s

(b) The normal force ( F ) at the highest point of the circular path is given by the relation:

F = F₁ - F₂     ....(1)

Here F₁ is gravitational downward force acting on the person and F₂ is the centripetal force.

Gravitational Force, F₁ = mg

Here g is acceleration due to Earth's gravity.

Centripetal force, F₂ = mv²/r

Thus, the equation (1) becomes:

F=mg-\frac{mv^{2} }{r}

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

F=82\times9.8-\frac{82\times7.10^{2} }{10}

F = 390.2 N

(c) The normal force ( F ) at the lowest point of the circular path is given by the relation:

F = F₁ + F₂     ....(2)

Here F₁ is gravitational downward force acting on the person and F₂ is the centripetal force.

Thus the equation (2) becomes:

F=mg+\frac{mv^{2} }{r}

F=82\times9.8+\frac{82\times7.10^{2} }{10}

F = 1217 N

A suitcase (mass m = 18 kg) is resting on the floor of an elevator. The part of the suitcase in contact with the floor measures
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

P=2736 Pa

Explanation:

According to Newton we have that:

∑F=m*a\\

A force is exerted by the elevator to the suitcase, according to 3th Newton's law an equal force but in the opposite direction will appeared on the suitcase, that is:

∑F=m*g+m*a=m*(g+a)

F=205.2N

We know that the pressure is given by:

P=\frac{F}{A}\\P=\frac{205.2N}{(0.50m)*(0.15m)}\\P=2736N/m^2=2736Pa

The blackbody radation emmitted from a furnace peaks at a wavelength of 1.9 x 10^-6 m (0.0000019 m). what is the temperature ins
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

Temperature, T = 1542.10 K

Explanation:

It is given that,

The black body radiation emitted from a furnace peaks at a wavelength of, \lambda=1.9\times 10^{-6}\ m

We need to find the temperature inside the furnace. The relationship between the temperature and the wavelength is given by Wein's law i.e.

\lambda\propto \dfrac{1}{T}

or

\lambda=\dfrac{b}{T}

b = Wein's displacement constant

\lambda=\dfrac{2.93\times 10^{-3}}{T}

T=\dfrac{2.93\times 10^{-3}}{\lambda}

T=\dfrac{2.93\times 10^{-3}}{1.9\times 10^{-6}\ m}

T = 1542.10 K

So, the temperature inside the furnace is 1542.10 K. Hence, this is the required solution.

A spaceship far from all other objects uses its impulse power system to attain a speed of 104 m/s. The crew then shuts off the p
asambeis [7]

Answer:

Velocity remains the same at 104 m/s

Explanation:

According to Newton's 1st law of motion, an object subjected to no force or net force equal 0 would maintain its velocity. In our case the crew shuts off the power, spaceship is in space and far from all other objects (so no gravity whatsoever) would have no force acting on it. Therefore its velocity would stay the same at 104 m/s
