g Two identical metal spheres (small enough to be treated as particles) each with a mass of 3.1 × 10−3 kg are hung from separate

identical strings. The strings are 0.70 m long and are attached to the same nail in the ceiling. Surplus electrons are added to each sphere, and then the spheres are brought in contact with each other and released. Their equilibrium position is such that each string makes an angle of 15.0° with the vertical. How many surplus electrons are on each sphere?

Answer:

Explanation:

Let q be the charges on each spheres , 2d be the   distance between them in equilibrium , T be tension in the string and F be the force of repulsion between them

F = k q² /4d²

For equilibrium

T sin15 = F

T cos 15 = mg

tan15 = F / mg

F = mg tan15

k q² /4d² = mg tan15

k q² = 4d² x mg tan15

= 4 x( .7 sin15)² x 3.1 x 10⁻³ x 9.8 x .2679

= 1.068 x 10⁻³

q = .3444 x 10⁻⁶ C

no of electrons

=  .3444 x 10⁻⁶  / 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹

= 215.25 x 10¹⁰

A mover loads a crate onto a truck bed 1.6m from the street using a ramp that is 4.6m long. What is a mechanical advantage?
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

Mechanical advantage = 2.875

Explanation:

Given:

A diagram is shown below for the above scenario.

Length of ramp (Effort arm) = 4.6 m

Height of truck bed ( Resistance length) = 1.6 m

Mechanical advantage (MA) is the ratio of effort arm and resistance length.

So, mechanical advantage is given as,

MA=\frac{\textrm{Effort arm}}{\textrm{Resistance length}}= \frac{4.6}{1.6}=2.875

Sound with frequency 1300 Hz leaves a room through a doorway with a width of 1.03 m . At what minimum angle relative to the cent
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

  about 14.7°

Explanation:

The formula for the angle of the first minimum is ...

  sin(θ) = λ/a

where θ is the angle relative to the door centerline, λ is the wavelength of the sound, and "a" is the width of the door.

The wavelength of the sound is the speed of sound divided by the frequency:

  λ = (340 m/s)/(1300 Hz) ≈ 0.261538 m

Then the angle of interest is ...

  θ = arcsin(0.261538/1.03) ≈ 14.7°

At an angle of about 14.7°, someone outside the room will hear no sound.
