An empty rubber balloon has a mass of 12.5 g. The balloon is filled with helium at a density of 0.181 kg/m3. At this density the

balloon has a radius of 0.498 m. If the filled balloon is fastened to a vertical line, what is the tension in the line? The density of air is 1.29 kg/m3.

Answer:

  • 5.5 N

Explanation:

mass of balloon (m) = 12.5 g = 0.0125 kg

density of helium = 0.181 kg/m^{3}

radius of the baloon (r) = 0.498 m

density of air = 1.29 kg/m^{3}

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 1.29 m/s^{2}

find the tension in the line

the tension in the line is the sum of all forces acting on the line

Tension =buoyant force  + force by helium + force of weight of rubber

force = mass x acceleration

from density = \frac{mass}{volume} ,  mass = density x volume

  • buoyant force =  density x volume x acceleration

        where density is the density of air for the buoyant force

        buoyant force = 1.29 x (\frac{4]{3} x π x 0.498^{3}) x 9.8 = 6.54 N

  • force by helium =  density x volume x acceleration

        force by helium =  0.181 x (\frac{4]{3} x π x 0.498^{3}) x 9.8 = 0.917 N

  • force of its weight = mass of rubber x acceleration

        force of its weight = 0.0125 x 9.8 = 0.1225 N

  • Tension = buoyant force  + force by helium + force of weight of rubber

         the force  of weight of rubber and of helium act downwards, so they      

          carry a negative sign.

  • Tension = 6.54 - 0.917 - 0.1225 = 5.5 N

What must the charge (sign and magnitude) of a 1.45-g particle be for it to remain stationary when placed in a downward-directed
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

charge will be equal to 2.03\times 10^{-5}C  

Explanation:

We have given mass of the particle m = 1.45 gram = 0.00145 kg

Acceleration due to gravity g=9.8m/sec^2

Electric field E = 700 N/C

Electric force will be equal to F=qE, here q is charge and E is electric field

For particle to be stationary this force must be equal to force due to gravity , that is mg force

So qE = mg

q=\frac{mg}{E}=\frac{0.00145\times 9.8}{700}=2.03\times 10^{-5}C

So charge will be equal to 2.03\times 10^{-5}C

In the mobile m1=0.42 kg and m2=0.47 kg. What must the unknown distance to the nearest tenth of a cm be if the masses are to be
LuckyWell [14K]

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

Explanation:

From he question we are told that

    The first mass is   m_1 = 0.42kg

      The second mass is  m_2 = 0.47kg

From the question we can see that at equilibrium the moment about the point where the  string  holding the bar (where m_1 \ and \ m_2 are hanged ) is attached is zero  

   Therefore we can say that

               m_1 * 15cm  = m_2 * xcm

Making x the subject of the formula  

                x = \frac{m_1 * 15}{m_2}

                    = \frac{0.42 * 15}{0.47}

                     x = 13.4 cm

Looking at the diagram we can see that the tension T  on the string holding the bar where m_1  \  and   \ m_2 are hanged  is as a result of the masses (m_1 + m_2)

     Also at equilibrium the moment about the point where the string holding the bar (where (m_1 +m_2)  and  m_3 are hanged ) is attached is  zero

   So basically

          (m_1 + m_2 ) * 20  = m_3 * 30

          (0.42 + 0.47)  * 20 = 30 * m_3

 Making m_3 subject

          m_3 = \frac{(0.42 + 0.47) * 20 }{30 }

                m_3 = 0.59 kg

A convex mirror, like the passenger-side rearview mirror on a car, has a focal length of -3.0 m . An object is 6.0 m from the mi
Artist 52 [7]

A) -2.0 m

Look at the ray diagram attached in the picture, where:

p identifies the location of the object

q identifies the location of the image

F identifies the focus of the mirror

Each tick represents 1 m

We have

p = 6.0 m is the distance of the object from the mirror

f = -3.0 m is the focal length

From the ray diagram, we see that q has a distance of 2.0 m from the mirror, and it's on the other side of the mirror compared to the object, so

q = -2.0 m

This can also be verified by using the mirror equation:

\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{p}=\frac{1}{-3.0 m}-\frac{1}{6.0 m}=-\frac{3}{6.0 cm}\\q = \frac{-6.0 cm}{3}=-2.0 cm

B) Upright and virtual

As we see from the picture, the image is upright, since it has same orientation as the object.

Also, we notice that the image is on the other side of the mirror, compared to the object. For a mirror,

- An image is said to be real if it is on the same side of the object

- An image is said to be virtual if it is on the opposite side of the mirror

Therefore, this means that the image is virtual.
