Answer:

5 N

Explanation:

The bucket is moving at a constant speed of 2m/s Therefore F=ma is 0 N for this to be correct the magnitude of the force exerted by the rope must be equal to the weight of the bucket which is 5 N

Answer:

Magnitude of force on the rope=5N

Explanation:

The bucket is lowered by a constant speed,therefore the tension on the rope must be equal to the weight of the bucket.

A camera lens focuses on an object 75.0 cm from the lensThe image forms 3.50 cm behind the lens. What is the magnification of th

N76 [4]

Answer:

7/150

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Object distance (u) = 75cm

Image distance (v) = 3.5cm

Magnification (M) =..?

Magnification is simply defined as:

Magnification (M) = Image distance (v)/ object distance (u)

M = v /u

With the above formula, we can obtain the magnification of the image as follow:

M = v/u

M = 3.5/75

M = 7/150

Therefore, the magnification of the image is 7/150.

N capacitors are connected in parallel to form a "capacitor circuit". The capacitance of first capacitor is C, second one is C/2

liberstina [14]

Answer:

2C

Explanation:

The equivalent capacitance of a parallel combination of capacitors is the sum of their capacitance.

So, if the capacitance of each capacitor is half the previous one, we have a geometric series with first term = C and rate = 0.5.

Using the formula for the sum of the infinite terms of a geometric series, we have:

Sum = First term / (1 - rate)

Sum = C / (1 - 0.5)

Sum = C / 0.5 = 2C

So the equivalent capacitance of this parallel connection is 2C.

#1 Not sure where to start. This is for AP Physics!

yaroslaw [1]

First,

$\rho=\dfrac mV$

where $\rho$ is density, $m$ is mass, and $V$ is volume. We can compute the volume of the roll:

$2.7\,\dfrac{\mathrm g}{\mathrm{cm}^3}=\dfrac{1275\,\mathrm g}V$

$\implies V\approx472.22\,\mathrm{cm}^3\approx4.72\,\mathrm m^3$

When the roll is unfurled, the aluminum will be a rectangular box (a very thin one), so its volume will be the product of the given area and its thickness $x$ . Note that we're assuming the given area is not the actual total surface area of the aluminum box, but just the area of the largest face (i.e. the area of one side of the unrolled sheet of aluminum).

So we have

$V=Ax$

where $A$ is the given area, so

$4.72\,\mathrm m^3=\left(18.5\,\mathrm m^2\right)x$

$\implies x\approx0.255\,\mathrm m=255\,\mathrm{mm}$

If we're taking significant digits into account, the volume we found would have been $V=470\,\mathrm m^3$ , in turn making the thickness $x=250\,\mathrm{mm}$ .

A spinning wheel has a rotational inertia of 2 kg•m². It has an angular velocity of 6.0 rad/s. An average counterclockwise torqu

ira [324]

Answer:

$-20.0 kg m^2/s$

Explanation:

The angular momentum of an object in rotation is given by

$L=I \omega$

where

I is the moment of inertia

$\omega$ is the angular speed

In this problem, initially we have

$I=2 kg m^2$ is the moment of inertia of the wheel

$\omega_i = 6.0 rad/s$ is the initial angular speed

So the initial angular momentum is

$L_i = I\omega_i = (2)(6.0)=12 kg m^2/s$

Later, a counterclockwise torque of

$\tau=-5.0 Nm$ is applied

So the angular acceleration of the wheel is:

$\alpha = \frac{\tau}{I}=\frac{-5.0}{2}=-2.5 rad/s^2$ in the direction opposite to the initial rotation.

As a result, the final angular velocity of the wheel will be:

$\omega_f = \omega_i + \alpha t$

where

t = 4.0 is the time interval

Solving,

$\omega_f = +6.0 +(-2.5)(4.0)=-4 rad/s$

which means that now the wheel is rotating in the counterclockwise direction.

Therefore, the new angular momentum of the wheel is:

$L_f = I\omega_f =(2)(-4.0)=-8.0 kg m^2/s$

So, the change in angular momentum is:

$\Delta L=L_f - L_i = (-8.0-(12))=-20.0 kg m/s^2$
