K.E = 1/2*m*v^2 = 1/2(500)(3)^2 = 2250 J

m*g*h = 500(9.8)(30) = 147000 J

2250 + 147000 = 149250

A 0.25 kg steel ball is tied to the end of a string and then whirled in a vertical circle at a constant speed v. The length of t
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the tension in the string be T . At the top of the circle , total force acting on them = T + mg . This will provide centripetal force

T + mg = m v² / r

4 + .25 x 9.8 = .25 x v² / .62

6.45 = .25 v² / .62

v² = 16

v = 4 m /s .

What magnification would be obtained if an eyepiece with a focal length of 0.38 m was placed on telescope?
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

This question is incomplete because the telescope's focal length was not provided. The formula to be used here is

Magnification = telescope's focal length/eyepiece's focal length

The eyepiece's focal length was provided in the question as 0.38 m.

NOTE: Magnification can be described as the power of an instrument (in this case telescope) to enlarge an object. It has no unit and thus the two focal lengths mentioned in the formula above must be in the same unit (preferably meters since one of them is in meters already).

A crate is placed on an adjustable, incline board. the coefficient of static friction between the crate and the board is 0.29.
sasho [114]

Let the angle be Θ (theta)

Let the mass of the crate be m.

a) When the crate just begins to slip. At that moment the net force will be equal to zero and the static friction will be at the maximum vale.

Normal force (N) = mg CosΘ

μ (coefficient of static friction) = 0.29

Static friction = μN = μmg CosΘ

Now, along the ramp, the equation of net force will be:

mg SinΘ - μmg CosΘ = 0

mg SinΘ = μmg CosΘ

tan Θ = μ

tan Θ = 0.29

Θ = 16.17°

b) Let the acceleration be a.

Coefficient of kinetic friction = μ = 0.26

Now, the equation of net force will be:

mg sinΘ - μ mg CosΘ = ma

a = g SinΘ - μg CosΘ

Plugging the values

a = 9.8 × 0.278 - 0.26 × 9.8 × 0.96

a = 2.7244 - 2.44608

a = 0.278 m/s^2

Hence, the acceleration is 0.278 m/s^2
