You are spinning a rock, of mass 0.75 kg, at the end of a string of length 0.86m in a vertical circle in uniform circular motion

. What minimum speed is necessary so that there is no tension in the string at the top of the circle but the rock stays in the same circular path? If the string's maximum tension is 45 N, what is the maximum speed the rock can have so that the string does not break? At what point in the vertical circle does this maximum value occur?

Answer:

v (minimum speed) = 2.90 m/sec.

\\ \\ maximum speed (v)= 6.57 m/sec.\\

Maximum value of speed will occur at lowest point of vertical circle.

Explanation:

a)  What minimum speed is necessary so that there is no tension in the string at the top of the circle but the rock stays in the same circular path?

Using the force balance expression at the top of the circle,

Gravitational Force + Tension force = Centrifugal force

m*g + T = m*v^2/R

Given that : T = 0

R = length of string = 0.86 m

mass of the spinning rock = 0.75 kg

v = \sqrt{g*R}

v = \sqrt{9.81*0.86}

v (minimum speed) = 2.90 m/sec.

b) what is the maximum speed the rock can have so that the string does not break?

Here the  force balance at bottom of circle is represented by the illustration:

T = m*g + m*v^2/R

Given that:

maximum tension T = 45 N

maximum speed v = ??

mass  m = 0.75 kg

∴

45 - 0.75*9.81 = 0.75*\frac{v^2}{0.86} \\\\v^2 = 0.86*(45 - 0.75*9.81)/0.75 \\ v = \sqrt{0.86*(45 - 0.75*9.81)/0.75\\ maximum speed (v)= 6.57 m/sec.\\

c)

At what point in the vertical circle does this maximum value occur?

Maximum value of speed will occur at lowest point of vertical circle.

This is so because  at the lowest point; the tension in string will be maximum.

The mass of block B is twice the mass of block A, while the mass of the pulley is equal to the mass of block A. The blocks are l
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

C)the right cord pulls on the pulley with greater force than the left cord

Explanation:

As we can see the figure that B is connected to the right string while A is connected to the left string

Now force equation for B as it will move downwards is given as

(2m)g - T_B = (2m)a

similarly for block A which will move upwards we can write the equation as

T_A - mg = ma

now we know that pulley is also rotating so the tangential acceleration of the rope at the contact point with pulley must be same as that of acceleration of the blocks

so here pulley will rotate clockwise direction

So tension in the right string must be more than the left string

So correct answer will be

C)the right cord pulls on the pulley with greater force than the left cord

A particle with positive charge q = 9.61 10-19 C moves with a velocity v = (5î + 4ĵ − k) m/s through a region where both a unifo
user100 [1]

Answer:

\vec{F}=(1.537*10^{-17}\hat{i}-9.61*10^{-19}\hat{j}-2.883*10^{-18}\hat{k})N

Explanation:

The total force on the particle is given by

\vec{F}=q\vec{v}\ X\ \vec{B}+q\vec{E}

Then, by replacing we have:

q\vec{v}\ X \vec{B}=q[7\hat{k}-9\hat{j}-\hat{k}]\\\\q\vec{E}=q[5\hat{i}-\hat{j}-2\hat{k}]\\\\\vec{F}=(9.61*10^{-19}C)[(7+9)\hat{i}+(-9-1)\hat{j}+(-1-2)\hat{k}]\\\\\vec{F}=(1.537*10^{-17}\hat{i}-9.61*10^{-19}\hat{j}-2.883*10^{-18}\hat{k})N

where the cross product can be made with the determinant method.

Hope this helps!!

Water has a mass per mole of 18.0 g/mol, and each water molecule (H20) has 10 electrons. (a) How many electrons are there in one
Allushta [10]

Answer:

total number of electron in 1 litter is 3.34 × 10^{26} electron

Explanation:

given data

mass per mole = 18 g/mol

no of electron = 10

to find out

how many electron in 1 liter of water

solution

we know molecules per gram mole is 6.02 ×10^{23} molecules

no of moles is 1

so

total number of electron in water is = no of electron ×molecules per gram mole × no of moles

total number of electron in water is = 10 × 6.02 ×10^{23} × 1

total number of electron in water is = 6.02×10^{24} electron

and

we know

mass = density × volume    ..........1

here we know density of water is 1000 kg/m

and volume = 1 litter = 1 × 10^{-3} m³

mass of 1 litter = 1000 × 1 × 10^{-3}

mass = 1000 g

so

total number of electron in 1 litter =  mass of 1 litter × \frac{molecules per gram mole}{mass per mole}

total number of electron in 1 litter =  1000 × \frac{6.02*10{24}}{18}

total number of electron in 1 litter is 3.34 × 10^{26} electron

Which structures main function is to produce food (sugar) in a plant
leva [86]
Technically speaking, there are many "levels" of a plant for which this may hold true. I think the one you are referring to is the chloroplast. It takes in the light energy from the sun, water and carbon dioxide, and performs photosynthesis on them to produce sugar and oxygen. A leaf would also fit the description as this is a very general question.

In a series circuit what effect will adding more resistors to the circuit have
zhuklara [117]

Answer:In a series circuit, adding more resistors increases total resistance and thus lowers current. But the opposite is true in a parallel circuit because adding more resistors in parallel creates more choices and lowers total resistance. If the same battery is connected to the resistors, current will increase.
