Downward force acting on the ball is 19.6N

Net force acting on the ball is 1960V N

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u />

Given:

Mass of the ball, m = 2kg

Density of ball, σ = 800 kg/m³

Density of water, ρ = 1000 kg/m³

Downward force acting by the ball in the vessel = mg

where, g = 9.8m/s²

F = 2 X 9.8

F = 19.6N

Net force acting on the ball:

Fnet = (ρ - σ) Vg

where,

V is the volume of water

Fnet = (1000 - 800) V X 9.8

Fnet = 1960V N

If the volume is known, then substitute the value of V to find the net force.

Thus, Downward force acting on the ball is 19.6N

Net force acting on the ball is 1960V N

A 560-g squirrel with a surface area of 930cm2 falls from a 5.0-m tree to the ground. Estimate its terminal velocity. (Use a dra

bija089 [108]

Explanation:

Terminal velocity is given by:

$v_t=\sqrt{\frac{2mg}{\rho C_dA}}$

Here, m is the mass of the falling object, g is the gravitational acceleration, $C_d$ is the drag coefficient, $\rho$ is the fluid density through which the object is falling, and A is the projected area of the object. in this case the projected area is given by:

$A=\frac{A_s}{2}=\frac{930cm^2}{2}=465cm^2\\465cm^2*\frac{1m^2}{10^4cm^2}=0.0465m^2\\560g*\frac{1kg}{10^3g}=0.56kg$

Recall that drag coefficient for a horizontal skydiver is equal to 1 and air density is $1.28\frac{kg}{m^3}$ .

$v_t=\sqrt{\frac{2(0.56kg)(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})}{(1.28\frac{kg}{m^3}(1)(0.0465m^2)}}\\v_t=13.58\frac{m}{s}$

Without drag contribution the motion of the person is an uniformly accelerated motion, thus:

$v_f^2=v_o^2+2gh\\v_f=\sqrt{2gh}\\v_f=\sqrt{2(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})(5m)}\\v_f=9.9\frac{m}{s}$

For a cylindrical capacitor, the capacitance does not depend on which of the following values?

IgorC [24]

Answer:

Capacitance of cylindrical capacitor does not depends on the amount of charge on the conductors

Explanation:

Consider a cylindrical capacitor of length L, inner radius R₁ and outer radius R₂, permitivity ε₀ constant then capacitance of cylindrical capacitor is given by:

$C=\frac{2\pi \epsilon_{o}L}{ln\frac{R_{2} }{R_{1}} }$

From this equation it is clear that capacitance of cylindrical capacitor is independent of the amount of charge on the conductors where as directly proportional permitivity constant and length of cylinder where as inversely proportional to natural log of ratio of R₂ and R₁
