A point on the outside of a spinning top whose rotational speed is constant.

Since the point at the top is at rest so it will not accelerate at all

A skydiver whose air resistance is equal to that of her weight.

Since weight is counter balanced by air resistance so net force on it is zero so acceleration will be zero

A car on the freeway experiencing a net force of -120 N.

Since net force is not zero so it will accelerate here

A submerged beach ball whose buoyant force is eight times the force of gravity on it.

Since buoyant force is more than the weight so it will not at rest and move upwards with some acceleration

A frictionless spinning merry go round.

Since spinning wheel accelerating due to centripetal force so it is non inertial frame

A falling rock.

Falling rock is accelerating due to gravity so it is again non inertial frame

A hot air balloon moving at 30 degrees east of north with no net force.

since hot air balloon is having no force on it so its acceleration is zero and its an inertial frame

A space shuttle whose boosters just ignited for takeoff.

Since space shuttle is accelerating due to boosters so it is non inertial frame

Here net force on it is due to two given forces

$F_1 = 4320 N$ towards right

$F_2 = 4380 N$ towards left

so here net force is given as

$F = F_2 - F_1$

$F = 4380 - 4320 = 60 N$

since force towards left is more so the direction will be towards left

so correct answer is 60 N towards left

A wire is oriented along the x-axis. It is connected to two batteries, and a conventional current of 2.6 A runs through the wire

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

the magnitude of the magnetic force on the wire is 0.2298 N

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

we know that, the magnitude of magnetic force is given as;

|F $_{mg}^>$ | = I( $B^>$ × $L^>$ )

given that

I = 2.6 A

$B^>$ = 0.17

$L^>$ = 0.52

so we substitute

|F $_{mg}^>$ | = 2.6( 0.17i" × 0.52j" )

|F $_{mg}^>$ | = 0.2298 N

Therefore, the magnitude of the magnetic force on the wire is 0.2298 N

find the period of a simple pendulum of 1m length placed on earth and on moon g on moon =1.67m/s² g on earth=10m/s²

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

$T_{m }$ = 4.86 s

$T_{e}$ = 1.98 s

Explanation:

Given:

Length = l = 1 m

Acceleration due to gravity of moon = $g_{m}$ = 1.67 m/s²

Acceleration due to gravity of Earth = $g_{e}$ = 10 m/s²

Required:

Time period = T = ?

Formula:

T = 2π $\sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }$

Solution:

For moon

Putting the givens,

T = 2(3.14) $\sqrt{\frac{1}{1.67} }$

T = 6.3 $\sqrt{0.6}$

T = 6.3 × 0.77

T = 4.86 sec

For Earth,

Putting the givens

T = 2π $\sqrt{\frac{1}{10} }$

T = 2(3.14) $\sqrt{0.1}$

T = 6.3 × 0.32

T = 1.98 sec

What is the wavelength associated with an electron with a velocity of 4.8X10s m/s? (Mass of the electron is 9.1X10-31kg)?

amid [387]

Answer:

1.52 nm

Explanation:

Using the De Broglie wavelength equation,

λ = h/p where λ = wavelength associated with electron, h = Planck's constant = 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ Js and p = momentum of electron = mv where m = mass of electron = 9.1 × 10⁻³¹ kg and v = velocity of electron = 4.8 × 10⁵ m/s

So, λ = h/p

λ = h/mv

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

λ = h/mv

λ = 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ Js/(9.1 × 10⁻³¹ kg × 4.8 × 10⁵ m/s)

λ = 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ Js/(43.68 × 10⁻²⁶ kgm/s)

λ = 0.1518 × 10⁻⁸ m

λ = 1.518 × 10⁻⁹ m

λ = 1.518 nm

λ ≅ 1.52 nm
