Since we are given the density and volume, then perhaps we can determine the amount in terms of the mass. All we have to do is find the volume in terms of cm³ so that it will cancel out with the cm³ in the density. The conversion is 1 ft = 30.48 cm. The solution is as follows:

V = (14 ft)(15 ft)(8 ft)(30.48 cm/1 ft)³ = 0.0593 cm³

The mass is equal to:
Mass = (0.00118g/cm³)(0.0593 cm³)
Mass = 7 grams of HCN

1 A 75-g ball is projected from a height of 1.6 m with a horizontal velocity of 2 m/s and bounces from a 400-g smooth plate supp
Tanzania [10]

Answer with explanation:

We are given that  

Mass of ball,m_1=75 g=\frac{75}{1000}=0075kg

1 kg=1000 g

Height,h_1=1.6 m

h_2=0.6 m

Horizontal velocity,v_x=2 m/s

Mass of platem_2=400 g=\frac{400}{1000}=0.4 kg

a.Initial velocity of plate,u_2=0

Velocity before impact=u_1=\sqrt{2gh_1}=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 1.6}=5.6m/s

Where g=9.8 m/s^2

Velocity after impact,v_1=\sqrt{2gh_2}=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 0.6}=3.4m/s

According to law of conservation of momentum  

m_1u_1+m_2u_1=-m_1v_1+m_2v_2

Substitute the values  

0.075\times 5.6+0=-0.075\times 3.4+0.4v_2

0.4v_2=0.075\times 5.6+0.075\times 3.4

v_2=\frac{0.075\times 5.6+0.075\times 3.4}{0.4}=1.69 m/s

Velocity of plate=1.69 m/s

b.Initial energy=\frac{1}{2}m_1v^2_x+m_1gh_1=\frac{1}{2}(0.075)(2^2)+0.075\times 9.8\times 1.6=1.326 J

Final energy=\frac{1}{2}m_1v^2_x+m_1gh_2+\frac{1}{2}m_2v^2_2

Final energy=\frac{1}{2}(0.075)(2^2)+0.075\times 9.8\times 0.6+\frac{1}{2}(0.4)(1.69)^2=1.162 J

Energy lost due to compact=Initial energy-final energy=1.326-1.162=0.164 J

A man walks along a straight path at a speed of 4 ft/s. A searchlight is located on the ground 6 ft from the path and is kept fo
BARSIC [14]

We are given that,

\frac{dx}{dt} = 4ft/s

We need to find \frac{d\theta}{dt} when x=8ft

The equation that relates x and \theta can be written as,

\frac{x}{6} tan\theta

x = 6tan\theta

Differentiating each side with respect to t, we get,

\frac{dx}{dt} = \frac{dx}{d\theta} \cdot \frac{d\theta}{dt}

\frac{dx}{dt} = (6sec^2\theta)\cdot \frac{d\theta}{dt}

\frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{1}{6sec^2\theta} \cdot \frac{dx}{dt}

Replacing the value of the velocity

\frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{1}{6} cos^2\theta (4)^2

\frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{8}{3} cos^2\theta

The value of cos \theta could be found if we know the length of the beam. With this value the equation can be approximated to the relationship between the sides of the triangle that is being formed in order to obtain the numerical value. If this relation is known for the value of x = 6ft, the mathematical relation is obtained. I will add a numerical example (although the answer would end in the previous point) If the length of the beam was 10, then we would have to

cos\theta = \frac{6}{10}

\frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{8}{3} (\frac{6}{10})^2

\frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{24}{25}

Search light is rotating at a rate of 0.96rad/s

An unstrained horizontal spring has a length of 0.26 m and a spring constant of 180 N/m. Two small charged objects are attached
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

a)

two like charges always repel each other while two unlike charges attract each other. Since the spring stretches by 0.039 m, the charges have the same sign. both charges are positive(+) or Negative (-)

b)

both q1 and q1 are 8.35 × 10⁻⁶ C or -8.35 × 10⁻⁶ C

Explanation:

Given that;

L = 0.26 m

k = 180 N/m

x = 0.039 m

a)

we know that two like charges always repel each other while two unlike charges attract each other. Since the spring stretches by 0.039 m, the charges have the same sign.

b)

Spring force F = kx

F = 180 × 0.039

F = 7.02 N

Now, Electrostatic force F = Keq²/r²

where r = L + x = ( 0.26 + 0.039 )

we know that proportionality constant in electrostatics equations Ke = 9×10⁹ kg⋅m3⋅s−2⋅C−2

so from the equation; F = Keq²/r²

Fr² = Keq²

q = √ ( Fr² / Ke )

we substitute

q = √ ( 7.02 N × ( 0.26 + 0.039 )² / 9×10⁹ )

q = √ ( 7.02 N × ( 0.26 + 0.039 )² / 9×10⁹ )

q =  √ (0.627595 / 9×10⁹)

q = √(6.97 × 10⁻¹¹)

q = 8.35 × 10⁻⁶ C

Therefore both q1 and q1 are 8.35 × 10⁻⁶ C or -8.35 × 10⁻⁶ C
