Answer:

a) 0.049 m

b) Yes, increase

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram.

In the y direction, there are three forces acting on the feeder.  Two vertical components of the tension forces in each rope pulling up, and weight force pulling down.

Apply Newton's second law to the feeder in the y direction.

∑F = ma

2Ty − mg = 0

Ty = mg/2

Let's say the distance the rope sags is d.  The trees are 4m apart, so the feeder is 2m horizontally from either tree.  Using Pythagorean theorem, we can find the length of the rope on either side:

L² = 2² + d²

L = √(4 + d²)

Using similar triangles, we can write a proportion using the forces and distances.

Ty / T = d / L

Substitute:

(mg/2) / T = d / √(4 + d²)

Solve for d:

Td = mg/2 √(4 + d²)

T² d² = (mg/2)² (4 + d²)

T² d² = (mg)² + (mg/2)² d²

(T² − (mg/2)²) d² = (mg)²

d² = (mg)² / (T² − (mg/2)²)

d = mg / √(T² − (mg/2)²)

Given m = 2.4 kg and T = 480 N:

d = (2.4) (9.8) / √(480² − (2.4×9.8/2)²)

d = 0.049 m

b) If a bird lands on a feeder, this will increase the tension in the rope to support the bird's weight.

If an electric current of 8.50 A flows for 3.75 hours through an electrolytic cell containing copper-sulfate (CuSO4) solution, t
muminat

Answer:

75.5g

Explanation:

From the ionic equation, we can write

CU^{2+}+SO^{2-}_{4}\\

next we find the number of charge

Note Q=it

for i=8.5A, t=3.75 to secs 3.75*60*60=13500secs

hence

Q=8.5*13500\\Q=114750C

Since one faraday represent one mole of electron which equal 96500C

Hence the number of mole produced by 114750C is

114750/96500=1.2mol

The mass of copper produced is

mol=\frac{mass}{molar mass} \\mass=mole*molar mass\\mass=1.2*63.5\\mass=75.5g

Hence the amount of copper produced is 75.5g

Answer:

Charge on each metal sphere will be 8\times 10^{8}C

Explanation:

We have given number of electron added to metal sphere A n=10^{12}electron

As both the spheres are connected by rod so half -half electron will be distributed on both the spheres.

So electron on both the spheres =\frac{10^{12}}{2}=5\times 10^{11}electron

We know that charge on each electron e=1.6\times 10^{-19}C

So charge on both the spheres will be equal to q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 5\times 10^{11}=8\times 10^{8}C

So charge on each metal sphere will be equal to 8\times 10^{8}C

The speed of an object and the direction in which it moves constitute a vector quantity known as the velocity. an ostrich is run
Orlov [11]
Velocity of an object is its rate of change of the object's position per interval of time. Velocity is a vector quantity which means that it consists of a magnitude and a direction. Magnitude is represented by the speed and the direction is represented by the angle. To determine the velocity components, we use trigonometric functions to determine the angle of the components. For the north component we, use the sine function while, for the west component, we use the cosine function. We calculate as follows:
north velocity component = (16.8 m/s) (sin 54°) = 16.4 m/s
<span>west velocity component = (16.8 m/s) (cos 54°) = 3.49 m/s</span>
