A cable with mass 0.5 kilograms per meter (kg/m) is used to lift 150 kg of coal up a mine shaft 50 meters deep. Set up the integ

ral that will calculate the work needed to lift the load one quarter of the way up the shaft. (Set up the integral only, no need to compute its value.)

Answer:

W=-\int_{0}^{50}[150-0.5y]dy

Explanation:

the integral for the work is:

W=\int\vec{F}\cdot d\vec{l}=\int(-M(y)g)dy

the work is against the gravitational force. While the coal is going up, M(y) is changing due to the length of the cable is lower. We can describe this by using the following formula

M(y)=150kg-0.5\frac{kg}{m}y

Thus , the integral for the work is:

W=-\int_{0}^{50}[150-0.5y]dy

hope this helps!!

A group of campers travels to a cabin which has no electrical power. In order to provide for a heater and lights, which device w
larisa [96]

Answer:A generator is the appropriate device to be used.

Explanation:

A generator is a device which transforms mechanical energy to electrical energy.

The different parts of a generator includes:

- Engine, alternator, fuel system, voltage regulator, lubricating system, cooling and exhaust system, Battery charger and control panel.

The generator works on the principle of electromagnetic induction which states that

that the above flow of electric charges could be induced by moving an electrical conductor, such as a wire that contains electric charges, in a magnetic field. This movement creates a voltage difference between the two ends of the wire or electrical conductor, which in turn causes the electric charges to flow, thus generating electric current.

Therefore, the use of a generator is the best device for the campers to provide electrical power source for their heaters and light in the cabin.

I need help with two more Physics problems​
sesenic [268]

Answer:

c. They hit at the same time

b. BGS

Explanation:

A marble dropped (initial vertical velocity is 0) will land at the same time as a marble launched horizontally (initial vertical velocity is 0) from the same height.

Boat S has a net speed of 5 m/s (10 − 5).

Boat B has a net speed of 15 m/s (10 + 5).

Boat G has a net speed of ≈11.2 m/s (√(10² + 5²)).

What is the magnitude of electrical force of attraction between an copper nucleus (29 protons) and its innermost electron if the
Agata [3.3K]
The charge of the copper nucleus is 29 times the charge of one proton:
Q=29 q= 29 \cdot 1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C=4.64 \cdot 10^{-18}C
the charge of the electron is
e=-1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C
and their separation is
r=1.0 \cdot 10^{-12} m

The magnitude of the electrostatic force between them is given by:
F=k_e  \frac{Qe}{r^2}
where k_e is the Coulomb's constant. If we substitute the numbers, we find (we can ignore the negative sign of the electron charge, since we are interested only in the magnitude of the force)
F=(8.99 \cdot 10^9 Nm^2C^{-2}) \frac{(4.64 \cdot 10^{-18}C)(1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C)}{(1.0 \cdot 10^{-12} m)^2}=6.68 \cdot 10^{-3} N

icang [17]

Answer:

In a way it does, but overall, there are many factors that affect your rank. In general, and talking about the average Platinum II, they are pretty decent according to casual player standards.

3. The smallest bird is the Cuban bee hummingbird, which has a mass of only
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

2.6 m

Explanation:

The work done by the bird is given by

W=Fd

where

F is the force exerted

d is the distance covered

In this problem, we know:

W=8.8\cdot 10^{-4} J is the work

F=3.4\cdot 10^{-4} N is the force

Solving the equation for d, we find the distance covered by the bird:

d=\frac{W}{F}=\frac{8.8\cdot 10^{-4}}{3.4\cdot 10^{-4}}=2.6 m
