A block (mass 9.0 kg) is released from rest on a frictionless slope angled at 37° to the horizontal. Draw a diagram with labelle

d vectors for forces/acceleration. What is the block's acceleration?

Answer:

Force diagram is attached here.

Acceleration of the mass down the inclined plane is independent of its mass.

ma = mg sin 37

or Acceleration = a = g sin 37 = 5.9 m/s/s.

Explanation:

The object sliding down the inclined plane has several forces acting on it.

Forces are labelled here as 1, 2, 3, 4.

Force 1 = Normal force that acts at right angles to the inclined surface.

Force 2 : Parallel component of the gravitational force

= mg sin 37.

Force 3: Mass x Acceleration due to gravity = Weight

This is the gravity force that acts perpendicular to the

floor or ground.

Force 4 : Perpendicular component of the gravitational force = mg cos 37.

The maximum Compton shift in wavelength occurs when a photon isscattered through 180^\circ .

vlabodo [156]

Answer: $90\°$

Explanation:

The Compton Shift $\Delta \lambda$ in wavelength when the photons are scattered is given by the following equation:

$\Delta \lambda=\lambda_{c}(1-cos\theta)$ (1)

Where:

$\lambda_{c}=2.43(10)^{-12} m$ is a constant whose value is given by $\frac{h}{m_{e}c}$ , being $h$ the Planck constant, $m_{e}$ the mass of the electron and $c$ the speed of light in vacuum.

$\theta)$ the angle between incident phhoton and the scatered photon.

We are told the maximum Compton shift in wavelength occurs when a photon isscattered through $180\°$ :

$\Delta \lambda_{max}=\lambda_{c}(1-cos(180\°))$ (2)

$\Delta \lambda_{max}=\lambda_{c}(1-(-1))$

$\Delta \lambda_{max}=2\lambda_{c}$ (3)

Now, let's find the angle that will produce a fourth of this maximum value found in (3):

$\frac{1}{4}\Delta \lambda_{max}=\frac{1}{4}2\lambda_{c}(1-cos\theta)$ (4)

$\frac{1}{4}\Delta \lambda_{max}=\frac{1}{2}\lambda_{c}(1-cos\theta)$ (5)

If we want $\frac{1}{4}\Delta \lambda_{max}=\frac{1}{2}\lambda_{c}$ , $1-cos\theta$ must be equal to 1:

$1-cos\theta=1$ (6)

Finding $\theta$ :

$1-1=cos\theta$

$0=cos\theta$

$\theta=cos^{-1} (0)$

Finally:

$\theta=90\°$ This is the scattering angle that will produce $\frac{1}{4}\Delta \lambda_{max}$

Find the direction and magnitude of Ftot, the total force exerted on her by the others, given that the magnitudes F1 and F2 are

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

θ = 36°

Explanation:

given,

F₁ = 22.8 N

F₂ = 16.6 N

magnitude of force = ?

direction of force = ?

$F = \sqrt{F_1^2 + F_2^2}$

$F = \sqrt{22.8^2 + 16.6^2}$

$F = \sqrt{795.4}$

F = 28.20 N

direction

$\theta = tan^{-1}(\dfrac{F_2}{F_1})$

$\theta = tan^{-1}(\dfrac{16.6}{22.8})$

$\theta = tan^{-1}(0.728)$

θ = 36°

What will make two bar magnets repel each<br> other?

Kitty [74]

The arrows always start at the magnet's north pole and point towards its south pole. When two like-poles point together, the arrows from the two magnets point in OPPOSITE directions and the field lines cannot join up. So the magnets will push apart

Sanitation can be accomplished by all of the means except

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Air drying

Explanation:

Sanitation is the set of measures that aims to preserve or modify the conditions of the environment in order to prevent diseases and promote health, improve the quality of life of the population and the productivity of the individual and facilitate economic activity. Basic sanitation is a right guaranteed by the Constitution as the set of services, infrastructure and operational installations for water supply, sanitary sewage, urban cleaning, urban drainage, solid waste and rainwater management.

Sanitation can be carried out in several ways, except for dry air, as this would damage the quality of sanitation and the environment.

Sanitation is important in treated water, sewage collection and treatment services lead to an improvement in the quality of people's lives, especially in child health, with a reduction in child mortality, improvements in education, in the expansion of tourism, in the valuation of properties, in income of the worker, in the cleaning of rivers and preservation of water resources, etc.
