Answer: Please find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

The question goes thus :

What happens to the charged electroscope when a conductor is moved between its plastic sheets, and why?

When a conductor is moved between its plastic sheets of a charged electroscope, the divergence between the brass plate and the gold leaf will decrease.

And why ?

Because of the unlike charges or neutral uncharged charges between the conductor and the plastic Sheets.

A turntable is designed to acquire an angular velocity of 32.4 rev/s in 0.5 s, starting from rest.

horrorfan [7]

Well, the acceleration is the difference of speeds divided by the time period. $\frac{32.4}{0.5}=64.8rev/s^2$ .
One rev/s is $2\pi rad/s^2$ , so our final result is $64.8*2\pi=407.15rad/s^2$ .

Options: A.) 10 N B.) 15 N C.) 25 N D.) 35N

Given:

F_gravity = 10 N

F_tension = 25 N

Let's find the net centripetal force exterted on the ball.

Apply the formula:

$\sum ^{}_{}F_{\text{net}}=F_1+F_2=F_{centripetal}$

From the given figure, the force acting towards the circular path will be positive, while the force which points directly away from the center is negative.

Hence, the tensional force is positive while the gravitational force is negative.

Thus, we have:

$F_{\text{net}}=F_{\text{centripetal}}=F_{tension}-F_{gravity}=25N-10N=15N$

Therefore, the net centripetal force exterted on the ball is 15 N.

ANSWER:

15 N

How much pressure is applied to the ground

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

Pressure applied by the man= 285103.125 $Pa$ or 41.35 $lb/in^{2}$

Explanation:

Pressure is defined as the perpendicular force applied per unit area.

i.e. $Pressure=\frac{Force}{Area}$

Now, $Force= mg$

where, $m$ = mass of the body(man) = 93 kg

$g$ = acceleration due to gravity of Earth = 9.81 $m/{s^{2}}$

$Area$ covered is equal to the area of both stilts(a man generally stands on two feet)

therefore $Area=2(0.04)^{2}$ $m^{2}$

and putting in the values, we get,

$Pressure=\frac{93\times9.81}{2\times(0.04)^{2}}Nm^{-2}=285103.125Nm^{-2}$

Now we need to convert to our required units:

$1Nm^{-2}=1Pa\\1Pa=0.000145038lb/in^{2}$

(We can get the above result by individually converting kg to lb and meters to inches respectively)

Using the above relations we get,

$Pressure=285103.125Pa=0.000145038\times285103.125lb/in^{2}=41.35lb/in^{2}$

A plane leaves Seattle, flies 76.0 mi at 22.0 ∘ north of east, and then changes direction to 51.0 ∘ south of east. After flying

mote1985 [20]

This can be solve by using a triangle, because the path of the plane formed a triangle. first solve the angle form by the second direction
angle = 180 - 51 - 22 = 107 degrees
then using the cosine law
c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab cos C
c^2 = 76^2 + 123^2 - 2 ( 76) ( 123) cos ( 107)
c = 162.4 mi <span>the crew fly to go directly to the field

A tourist being chased by an angry bear is running in a straight line toward his car at a speed of 3.9 m/s. The car is a distanc

sammy [17]

If it takes $t$ seconds to reach the car, then the distance $d$ is $3.9t$ .

The bear's distance from the tourist's starting point is
$6t-23$

For maximum $d$ , we set the equations equal to each other:
$3.9t=6t-23$
$\Rightarrow -2.1t=-23$
$\Rightarrow t=\frac{23}{2.1}$
so the distance is
$d=3.9(\frac{23}{2.1})\approx42.741\ m$
