A block of size 20m x 10 mx 5 m exerts a force of 30N. Calculate the

Physics
1 answer:
Orlov [11]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

We know that force applied per unit area is called pressure.

Pressure = Force/ Area

When force is constant than pressure is inversely proportional to area.

1- Calculating the area of three face:

A1 = 20m x 10 m =200 Square meter

A2 = 10 mx 5 m = 50 Square meter

A3 = 20m x 5 m = 100 Square meter

Therefore A1 is maximum and A2 is minimum.

2- Calculate pressure:

P = F/ A1 = 30 / 200 = 0.15 Nm⁻²  ( minimum pressure)

P = F / A2 = 30 / 50 = 0.6 Nm⁻²   ( maximum pressure)

Hence greater the area less will be the pressure and vice versa.

. Each valve A, B, and C, when open, releases water into a tank at its own constant rate. With all three valves open, the tank f
olasank [31]

Answer:

Time taken by A and B is 1.2 hr.

Explanation:

Given that

Time taken by tank when all(A+B+C) are open = 1 hr

Time taken by tank when A+C are open = 1.5 hr

Time taken by tank when B+C are open = 2 hr

If we treat as filling of tank is a work then

Work = time x rate

Lets take work is 1 unit

1 = 1(1/a+1/b+1/c)          ---------1

1 = 1.5(1/a+1/c)           ----------2

1 = 2(1/b+1/c)             --------3

From equation 1 and 3

1=1(1/a+1/2)

a=2

Form equation 2

1 = 1.5(1/2+1/c)

c=6

From equation 3

 1 = 2(1/b+1/6)  

b=3

So time taken by

A is alone to fill tank is 2 hr

B is alone to fill tank is 3 hr

C is alone to fill tank is 6 hr

So time\ taken\ by\ A\ and\ B =\dfrac{2\times 3}{2+3} hr

Time taken by A and B is 1.2 hr.

A rifle bullet with mass ma = 8.00 g strikes and embeds itself in a block with mass mb = 0.992 kg that rests on a frictionless,
Doss [256]

Answer:

the magnitude of the velocity of the block just after impact is 2.598 m/s and the original speed of the bullect is 324.76m/s.

Explanation:

a)  Kinetic energy of block = potential energy in spring  

½ mv² = ½ kx²

Here m stands for combined mass (block + bullet),

which is just 1 kg.  Spring constant k is unknown, but you can find it from given data:  

k = 0.75 N / 0.25 cm

= 3 N/cm, or 300 N/m.  

From the energy equation above, solve for v,

v = v √(k/m)  

= 0.15 √(300/1)

= 2.598 m/s.

b)  Momentum before impact = momentum after impact.

Since m = 1 kg,

v = 2.598 m/s,

p = 2.598 kg m/s.  

This is the same momentum carried by bullet as it strikes the block.  Therefore, if u is bullet speed,  

u = 2.598 kg m/s / 8 × 10⁻³ kg

= 324.76 m/s.

Hence, the magnitude of the velocity of the block just after impact is 2.598 m/s and the original speed of the bullect is 324.76m/s.
