Your clothing tends to cling together after going through the dryer. Why? Would you expect more or less clinging if all your clo

thing were made of the same material (say, cotton) than if you dried different kinds of clothing together? Again, why? (You may want to experiment with your next load of laundry.)

Answer and Explanation:

The clothing after spinning in the dryer cling together. This is because in the dryer they are rubbed against each other and due to this rubbing, electrons are transferred from one to the other clothes and acquire charge as a result of charging by friction thus producing static electricity.

As the material of the clothes in the dryer is different, clinging will be more.

The sticking of these clothes together is known as Static cling.

In case, the clothing are of same material, the static electricity produced as a result of frictional charging would be less and hence less static cling would occur.

A force acts on a 9.90 kg mobile object that moves from an initial position of to a final position of in 5.40 s. Find (a) the wo
horrorfan [7]

Given that,

Mass of object = 9.90 kg

Time =5.40 s

Suppose the force is (2.00i + 9.00j + 5.30k) N, initial position is (2.70i - 2.90j + 5.50k) m and final position is (-4.10i + 3.30j + 5.40k) m.

We need to calculate the displacement

Using formula of displacement

s=r_{2}-r_{1}

Where, r_{1} = initial position

r_{2} = final position

Put the value into the formula

s= (-4.10i + 3.30j + 5.40k)-(2.70i - 2.90j + 5.50k)

s= -6.80i+6.20j-0.1k

(a). We need to calculate the work done on the object

Using formula of work done

W=F\cdot s

Put the value into the formula

W=(2.00i + 9.00j + 5.30k)\cdot (-6.80i+6.20j-0.1k)

W=-13.6+55.8-0.53

W=41.67\ J

(b). We need to calculate the average power due to the force during that interval

Using formula of power

P=\dfrac{W}{t}

Where, P = power

W = work

t = time

Put the value into the formula

P=\dfrac{41.67}{5.40}

P=7.71\ Watt

(c). We need to calculate the angle between vectors

Using formula of angle

\theta=\cos^{-1}(\dfrac{r_{1}r_{2}}{|r_{1}||r_{2}|})

Put the value into the formula

\theta=\cos^{-1}\dfrac{(-4.10i + 3.30j + 5.40k)\cdot(2.70i - 2.90j + 5.50k)}{7.54\times6.778})

\theta=79.7^{\circ}

Hence, (a). The work done on the object by the force in the 5.40 s interval is 41.67 J.

(b). The average power due to the force during that interval is 7.71 Watt.

(c).  The angle between vectors is 79.7°

Which is a more objective measurement, sound intensity or loudness, and why? 1. sound intensity is exactly same as loudness. 2.
fgiga [73]
The correct answer is:
<span>2. sound intensity is a more objective and physical attribute of a sound wave because loudness can vary from person to person

indeed, sound intensity is a measurable quantity, and so it is objective, while loudness is the subjective perception of the sound level, so it varies from person to person.</span>

A solid, horizontal cylinder of mass 18.0 kg and radius 1.70.0 m rotates with an angular speed of 40 rad/s about a fixed vertica
Radda [10]

Answer:39.88 rad/s

Explanation:

Given

mass of cylinder m_1=18 kg

radius R=1.7 m

angular speed \omega =40rad/s

mass of m_2=0.8 kg dropped at r=0.3 m from center

let \omega _2 be the final angular velocity of cylinder

Conserving Angular momentum

L_1=L_2

\left ( \frac{m_1R^2}{2}\right )\omega =\left ( \frac{m_1R^2}{2}+m_2r^2\right )\omega _2

\left ( \frac{18\cdot 1.7^2}{2}\right )\cdot 40=\left ( \frac{18\cdot 1.7^2}{2}+0.8\cdot 0.3^2\right )\omega _2

26.01\times 40=26.082\times \omega _2

\omega _2=39.88 rad/s
