Tasha has mass 20 kg and wants to use a 4.0-m board of mass 10 kg as a seesaw. her friends are busy, so tasha seesaws by herself

by putting the support at the system's center of gravity when she sits on one end of the board. how far is she from the support point?

The 4 m board's center of mass is 2 m so the pivot point is somewhere between Tasha and 2 m (if you draw a picture it's going to make this clearer)

 The mass of Tasha * her distance from the pivot point = the board's mass * distance from the pivot point. 
<span> Let d1 be the distance Tasha is from the pivot point. The board's center of mass from the pivot point is 2 m - d1 
</span><span> 20 kg * d1 = 10 kg * (2m - d1) 
</span><span> Solve for d1, you should get 2/3 of a m for the distance Tasha is from the pivot or support point. The center of mass for the board is 1 1/3 m from the support point. </span>

A motorcycle and a police car are moving toward one another. The police car emits sound with a frequency of 523 Hz and has a spe
Firdavs [7]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Dopler's Law. Dopler describes the change in frequency of a wave in relation to that of an observer who is in motion relative to the Source of the Wave.

It can be described as

f = \frac{c\pm v_r}{c\pm v_s}f_0

c = Propagation speed of waves in the medium

v_r= Speed of the receiver relative to the medium

v_s= Speed of the source relative to the medium

f_0 =Frequency emited by the source

The sign depends on whether the receiver or the source approach or move away from each other.

Our values are given by,

v_s = 32.2m/s \rightarrow Velocity of car

v_r = 14.8 m/s \rightarrow velocity of motor

c = 343m/s \rightarrow Velocity of sound

f_0 = 523Hz \rightarrowFrequency emited by the source

Replacing we have that

f = \frac{c + v_r}{c - v_s}f_0

f = \frac{343 + 14.8}{343 - 32}(523)

f = 601.7Hz

Therefore the frequency that hear the motorcyclist is 601.7Hz

A linear accelerator produces a pulsed beam of electrons. The pulse current is 0.50 A, and the pulse duration is 0.10 μs. (a) Ho
Crank

Answer:

a)N = 3.125 * 10¹¹

b) I(avg)  = 2.5 × 10⁻⁵A

c)P(avg) = 1250W

d)P = 2.5 × 10⁷W

Explanation:

Given that,

pulse current is 0.50 A

duration of pulse Δt = 0.1 × 10⁻⁶s

a) The number of particles equal to the amount of charge in a single pulse divided by the charge of a single particles

N = Δq/e

charge is given by Δq = IΔt

so,

N = IΔt / e

N = \frac{(0.5)(0.1 * 10^-^6)}{(1.6 * 10^-^1^9)} \\= 3.125 * 10^1^1

N = 3.125 * 10¹¹

b) Q = nqt

where q is the charge of 1puse

n = number of pulse

the average current is given as I(avg) = Q/t

I(avg) = nq

I(avg) = nIΔt

         = (500)(0.5)(0.1 × 10⁻⁶)

         = 2.5 × 10⁻⁵A

C)  If the electrons are accelerated to an energy of 50 MeV, the acceleration voltage must,

eV = K

V = K/e

the power is given by

P = IV

P(avg) = I(avg)K / e

P(avg) = \frac{(2.5 * 10^-^5)(50 * 10^6 . 1.6 * 10^-^1^9)}{1.6 * 10^-^1^9}

= 1250W

d) Final peak=

P= Ik/e

= = P(avg) = \frac{(0.5)(50 * 10^6 . 1.6 * 10^-^1^9)}{1.6 * 10^-^1^9}\\2.5 * 10^7W

P = 2.5 × 10⁷W

Where would a car traveling on a roller coaster have the most kinetic energy ? and why?
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

As the car travels up the coaster it is gaining potential energy.

Explanation:

Because It has the greatest in amount of potential energy at the top of the coaster. when the car travels down the roller coaster it obtains speed and kinetic energy.
