So the best conductor for electricity is silver.
However because silver is so expensive we use copper which is the next best conductor

You throw a 20-N rock vertically into the air from ground level. You observe that when it is a height 14.8m above the ground, it
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

(A) The speed just as it left the ground is 30.25 m/s

(B) The maximum height of the rock is 46.69 m

Explanation:

Given;

weight of rock, w = mg  = 20 N

speed of the rock at 14.8 m, u = 25 m/s

(a) Apply work energy theorem to find its speed just as it left the ground

work = Δ kinetic energy

F x d = ¹/₂mv² - ¹/₂mu²

mg x d = ¹/₂m(v² - u²)

g x d = ¹/₂(v² - u²)

gd = ¹/₂(v² - u²)

2gd = v² - u²

v² = 2gd  + u²

v² = 2(9.8)(14.8) + (25)²

v² = 915.05

v = √915.05

v = 30.25 m/s

B) Use the work-energy theorem to find its maximum height

the initial velocity of the rock = 30.25 m/s

at maximum height, the final velocity = 0

- mg x H = ¹/₂mv² - ¹/₂mu²

- mg x H = ¹/₂m(0) - ¹/₂mu²

- mg x H = - ¹/₂mu²

2g x H = u²

H = u² / 2g

H = (30.25)² / 2(9.8)

H = 46.69 m

A 1.8 kg uniform rod with a length of 90 cm is attached at one end to a frictionless pivot. It is free to rotate about the pivot
Leokris [45]

Answer:

a. 32.67 rad/s²  b. 29.4 m/s²

Explanation:

a. The initial angular acceleration of the rod

Since torque τ = Iα = WL (since the weight of the rod W is the only force acting on the rod , so it gives it a torque, τ at distance L from the pivot )where I = rotational inertia of uniform rod about pivot = mL²/3 (moment of inertia about an axis through one end of the rod), α = initial angular acceleration, W = weight of rod = mg where m = mass of rod = 1.8 kg and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and L = length of rod = 90 cm = 0.9 m.

So, Iα = WL

mL²α/3 = mgL

dividing through by mL, we have

Lα/3 = g

multiplying both sides by 3, we have

Lα = 3g

dividing both sides by L, we have

α = 3g/L

Substituting the values of the variables, we have

α = 3g/L

= 3 × 9.8 m/s²/0.9 m

= 29.4/0.9 rad/s²

= 32.67 rad/s²

b. The initial linear acceleration of the right end of the rod?

The linear acceleration at the initial point is tangential, so a = Lα = 0.9 m × 32.67 rad/s² = 29.4 m/s²

A measurement has high<br> when it is very close to the<br> true value?
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

Accuracy

Explanation:

Accuracy means making measurements that are close to the value precision means making measurement that are close in value to eachother but not necessarily close to the true value.

I hope this helps! If not sorry.

A 0.750 kg block is attached to a spring with spring constant 17.5 N/m. While the block is sitting at rest, a student hits it wi
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

a

 A =  0.081 \  m

b

The value is  u =  0.2569 \  m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mass is  m  =  0.750 \ kg

   The spring constant is  k  =  17.5 \  N/m

    The instantaneous speed is  v  =  39.0 \  cm/s= 0.39 \  m/s

    The position consider is  x =  0.750A  meters from equilibrium point

   

Generally from the law of  energy conservation we have that

        The kinetic energy induced by the hammer  =  The energy stored in the spring

So

          \frac{1}{2} *  m * v^2  =  \frac{1}{2}  *  k  *  A^2

Here a is the amplitude of the subsequent oscillations

=>      A =  \sqrt{\frac{m *  v^ 2 }{ k} }

=>      A =  \sqrt{\frac{0.750 *  0.39 ^ 2 }{17.5} }

=>       A =  0.081 \  m

Generally from the law of  energy conservation we have that

The kinetic energy  by the hammer  =  The energy stored in the spring at the point considered   +   The kinetic energy at the considered point

             \frac{1}{2}  * m *  v^2 = \frac{1}{2}  * k x^2 + \frac{1}{2}  * m *  u^2

=>          \frac{1}{2}  * 0.750 *  0.39^2 = \frac{1}{2}  * 17.5* 0.750(0.081 )^2 + \frac{1}{2}  * 0.750 *  u^2

=>          u =  0.2569 \  m/s

On a clear day at a certain location, a 119-V/m vertical electric field exists near the Earth's surface. At the same place, the
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

(a) 62.69 nJ/m^3

(b) 1015.22 μJ/m^3

Explanation:

Electric field, E = 119 V/m

Magnetic field, B = 5.050 x 10^-5 T

(a) Energy density of electric field = \frac{1}{2}\varepsilon _{0}E^{2}

          =\frac{1}{2}\times 8.854\times 10^{-12}\times 119\times 119

          = 6.269 x 10^-8 J/m^3 = 62.69 nJ/m^3

(b) energy density of magnetic field = \frac{B^{2}}{2\mu _{0}}

=\frac{\left ( 5.05\times 10^{-5} \right )^{2}}{2\times 4\times 3.14\times 10^{-7}}

= 1.01522 x 10^-3 J/m^3 = 1015.22 μJ/m^3
