A student of weight 652 N rides a steadily rotating Ferris wheel (the student sits upright). At the highest point, the magnitude

of the normal force on the student from the seat is 585 N. (a) What is the magnitude of at the lowest point

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Weight of person $W=652\ N$

At highest point Magnitude of the normal force $F=585\ N$

net force at highest point

$F_{net}=W+F_c$

where $F_c=$ centripetal force

$F_c=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

$F_{net}=F_{n}=$ Normal Force

$585=652+F_c$

$F_c=-67\ N$

Negative sign shows force is in upward direction

At bottom point centripetal force is towards the bottom

$F_n=F_c+W$

$F_n=652+67$

$F_n=719\ N$

Jose’s lab instructor gives him a solution of sodium phosphate that is buffered to a pH of 4. Because of an error that he made w

Kazeer [188]

I am thinking that maybe the problem is not with the calibration. It might be that the buffered solution is already expired since at this point the solution is already not stable and will give a different pH reading than what is expected.

Two liquids, A and B, have equal masses and equal initial temperatures. Each is heated for the same length of time over identica

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

So the specific heat of the liquid B is greater than that of A.

Explanation:

Liquid A is hotter than the liquid B after both the liquids are heated identically for the same duration of time from the same initial temperature then according to heat equation,

$Q=m.c.\Delta T$

where:

m = mass of the body

c = specific heat of the body

$\Delta T=$ change in temperature of the body

The identical heat source supplies the heat for the same amount of time then the quantity of heat supplied is also equal.

So for constant heat, constant mass the temperature change is inversely proportional to the specific of heat of the liquid.

$\Delta T=\frac{Q}{m} \times \frac{1}{c}$

$\Delta T\propto\frac{1}{c}$

So the specific heat of the liquid B is greater than that of A.

The electric current in a wire is 1.5A. How many electrons flow past a given point in a time of 2s?

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The amount of electrons that flow in the given time is 3.0 C.

Explanation:

An electric current is defined as the ratio of the quantity of charge flowing through a conductor to the time taken.

i.e I = $\frac{Q}{t}$ ...................(1)

It is measure in Amperes and can be measured in the laboratory by the use of an ammeter.

In the given question, I = 1.5A, t = 2s, find Q.

From equation 1,

Q = I × t

= 1.5 × 2

= 3.0 Coulombs

The amount of electrons that flow in the given time is 3.0 C.

a basketball player can leap upward .65m how long does the basketball player remain in the air use 9.81m/s²

tigry1 [53]

At the player's maximum height, their velocity is 0. Recall that

${v_f}^2-{v_i}^2=2a\Delta y$

which tells us the player's initial velocity $v_i$ is

$0^2-{v_i}^2=-2g(0.65\,\mathrm m)\implies v_i=3.6\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}$

The player's height at time $t$ is given by

$y=v_it-\dfrac g2t^2$

so we find their airtime to be

$0.65\,\mathrm m=\left(3.6\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t-\dfrac g2t^2\implies t=0.36\,\mathrm s$

HELPPP!!!!<br> if you double the force what is the change in acceleration

jenyasd209 [6]

As we know that acceleration is directly proportional to force, therefore as the force is doubled, acceleration gets doubled too.
