A ledge on a building is 20 m above the ground. A taut rope attached to a 4.0 kg can of paint sitting on the ledge passes up ove

r a pulley and straight down to a 3.0 kg can of nails on the ground. If the can of paint is accidently knocked off the ledge, what time interval does a carpenter have to catch the can before it smashes on the floor?

Answer:

 t = 5.4 s

Explanation:

from the question we are given :

height (s) = 20 m

mass of paint (Mp) = 4 kg

mass of nails (Mn) = 3 kg

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}

  • The net force accelerating the can of paint should be equal to the difference in weight of the can of paint and the can of nails.

            weight of nails = mass of nails x g = 3 x 9.8 = 29.4 N

            weight of paint = mass nails x g = 4 x 9.8 = 39.2 N

             net force = 39.2 - 29.4 = 9.8 N

  • net force = total mass x acceleration

             9.8 = (3 +4) x a

              a = 1.4 m/s^{2}

  • from S = Ut + 0.5at^{2}  we can get  the time the carpenter has to catch the nails

          where U is the initial velocity and is 0 since the can was initially at            

            rest

           20 = (0 x t) + (0.5 x 1.4 x t^{2})

            20 = 0.7 x t^{2}

             t^{2} = 28.6

             t = 5.4 s

A Ferris wheel has radius 4.0 m and makes one revolution every 30 s with uniform rotation. A woman who normally weighs 600 N is
sasho [114]

Answer:

A) Apparent Weight = 590 N

Explanation:

As we know that frequency is given as

f = \frac{1}{30}

f = 0.033 Hz

now the angular speed is given as

\omega = 2\pi f

\omega = 2\pi(0.033) = 0.21 rad/s

now at the top position we will have

mg - N = m\omega^2 R

N = mg - m\omega^2 R

N = 600 - \frac{600}{9.8}(0.21)^2(4.0)

N = 590 N

A thin slab of Germanium is used as a Hall Effect probe. How would you orient a magnetic field to make the side facing out of th
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

the magnetic field must go in a direction parallel to the page perpendicular to the current.

Explanation:

The Hall effect is the voltage produced by the movement of electrons due to the effect of electric and magnetic fields in a material

            F = eE + v x B

The electric field goes in the direction of the current that is opposite to the direction of the electrons, therefore the magnetic force must be perpendicular to it.

Therefore, if the current goes in a direction parallel to the page, in the x direction, the magnetic field must be perpendicular to it if we use the rule of the right wizard,

thumb points in the direction of E, x axis parallel page

The fingers extended should go parallel to the page in the direction and up

The palm is the direction of the Force, where the voltage will be produced points out the page, this is for positive charges, as in germanium the charges are negative, the real force goes into the page.

Therefore the electrons accumulate on the inside of the page and the voltage is negative in this part.

Therefore the voltage is positive on the outside of the sheet. In conclusion the magnetic field must go in a direction parallel to the page perpendicular to the current.

Calculate the induced electric field (in V/m) in a 52-turn coil with a diameter of 12 cm that is placed in a spatially uniform m
Leviafan [203]

Given Information:  

Number of turns = N = 52

Diameter of coil = d = 12 cm = 0.12 m

Time = t = 0.10 seconds

Magnetic field = B = 0.30 T  

Required Information:  

Induced electric field = E = ?  

Answer:

Induced electric field = E = 4.68 V/m

Explanation:

The Maxwell's third equation can be used to find out the induced electric field,

∫E.dl = -dΦ/dt  

Where E is the induced electric field, dl is the circumference of the loop and dΦ/dt  is the rate of change of magnetic flux and is given by

Φ = NABcos(θ)

Where N is the number of turns, A is the area of coil and B is the magnetic field and cos(θ) = 1

Φ = NAB

∫E.dl = -dΦ/dt  

E(2πr) = -d(NAB)/dt

E =1/(2πr)*-d(NAB)/dt

E =NA/(2πr)*-dB/dt

Area is given by

A = πr²

E =Nπr²/(2πr)*-dB/dt

E =Nr/2*-dB/dt

The magnetic field reduce from 0.30 to zero in 0.10 seconds

E =Nr/2*-(0.30 - 0)/(0 - 0.10)

E =Nr/2*-(0.30)/(-0.10)

E = Nr/2*-(-3)

The radius r is given by

r = d/2 = 0.12/2 = 0.06 m

E = (52*0.06)/2*(3)

E = 1.56*3

E = 1.56*3

E = 4.68 V/m

Therefore, the induced electric field in the coil is 4.68 V/m
