Answer: The depletion of the ozone layer is due to CFC (chloro fluoro carbon) which is widely used in air conditioner and refrigeration.

Explanation:

Ozone layer prevents the harmful radiation from entering the earth's surface.

Ultraviolet radiation is very harmful radiation. Exposure of this radiation can cause Skin cancer. It is the main cause of the sunburn.

The depletion of the ozone layer is due to CFC (chloro fluoro carbon) which is widely used in air conditioner and refrigeration.

CFC is broken down by ultraviolet radiation. Then, the chlorine is released. This chlorine reacts with oxygen. In this way, it destroys the ozone molecule.

A 220 kg crate hangs from the end of a rope of length L = 14.0 m. You push horizontally on the crate with a varying force F to m

kifflom [539]

Answer:

(a) magnitude of F = 797 N

(b)the total work done W = 0

(c)work done by the gravitational force = -1.55 kJ

(d)the work done by the pull = 0

(e) work your force F does on the crate = 1.55 kJ

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the crate, m = 220 kg

Length of the rope, L = 14.0m

Distance, d = 4.00m

(a) What is the magnitude of F when the crate is in this final position

Let us first determine vertical angle as follows

=> $Sin \theta = \frac{d }{L}$

=> $\theta = Sin^{-1} \frac{d}{L}$ =

Now substituting thje values

=> $\theta = Sin^{-1} \frac{4}{12}$ =

=> $\theta = Sin^{-1} \frac{1}{3}$

=> $\theta = Sin^{-1}(0.333)$

=> $\theta = 19.5^{\circ}$

Now the tension in the string resolve into components

The vertical component supports the weight

=> $Tcos\theta = mg$

=> $T = \frac{mg}{cos\theta}$

=> $T = \frac{230 \times 9.8 }{cos(19.5)}$

=> $T = \frac{2254 }{cos(19.5)}$

=> $T = \frac{2254 }{0.9426}$

=>T =2391N

Therefore the horizontal force

$F = TSin(19.5)$

F = 797 N

b) The total work done on it

As there is no change in Kinetic energy

The total work done W = 0

c) The work done by the gravitational force on the crate

The work done by gravity

Wg = Fs.d = - mgh

Wg = - mgL ( 1 - Cosθ )

Substituting the values

= $-230 \times 9.8\times 12 ( 1 - cos(19.5) )$

= $-230 \times 9.8\times 12 ( 1 - 0.9426) )$

= $-230 \times 9.8\times 12 (0.0574)$

= $-230 \times 9.8\times 0.6888$

= $-230 \times 6.750$

= -1552.55 J

The work done by gravity = -1.55 kJ

d) the work done by the pull on the crate from the rope

Since the pull is perpendicular to the direction of motion,

The work done = 0

e)Find the work your force F does on the crate.

Work done by the Force on the crate

WF = - Wg

WF = -(-1.55)

WF = 1.55 kJ

(f) Why is the work of your force not equal to the product of the horizontal displacement and the answer to (a)

Here the work done by force is not equal to F*d

and it is equal to product of the cos angle and F*d

So, it is not equal to the product of the horizontal displacement and the answer to (a)

Four power transistors, each dissipating 12 W, are mounted on a thin vertical aluminum plate 22 cm 3 22 cm in size. The heat gen

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The temperature of the Aluminium plate 44.84⁰C

Explanation:

Number of transistors = 4

Since the heat dissipated by each transistor is 12W

Total heat dissipated, Q = 4 * 12 = 48 W

Q = 48 W

Cross sectional Area of the Aluminium plate, A = 2(l * b)

l = Length of the aluminium plate = 22 cm = 0.22 m

b = width of the aluminium plate = 22 cm = 0.22 m

A =2( 0.22 * 0.22 )

A = 0.0968 m²

From the heat balance equation, Q = hAΔT

h = 25 W/m²·K

A = 0.0968 m²

ΔT = T - T(air)

T(air) = 25°C

ΔT = T - 25°C

Q = 25 * 0.0968 * ( T - 25)

Q = 2.42 (T - 25)

Substitute Q = 48 into the equation above

48 = 2.42 (T - 25)

T - 25 = 19.84

T = 25 + 19.84

T = 44.84 ⁰C

Four objects are situated along the y axis as follows: a 2.09-kg object is at +2.97 m, a 2.93-kg object is at +2.53 m, a 2.57-kg

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

x = 0 m

y = 1.02 m

Explanation:

M1 = 2.09 kg

y1 = 2.97 m

M2 = 2.93 kg

y2 = 2.53 m

M3 = 2.57 kg

y3 = 0 m

M4 = 3.92 kg

y5 = -0.496 m

since all objects are situated on the Y-axis, this means the x coordinate of the center of mass is 0.

To find the y coordinate of the center of mass, we apply the equation below.

sum of moment of the objects about the origin = moment of the total mass of objects about the center of mass

M1.y1 + M2.y2 + M3.y3 + M4.y4 = Mt.Y

(2.09 x 2.97) + (2.93 x 2.53) + (2.57 x 0) + (3.92 x -0.496) = (2.09 + 2.93 + 2.57 + 3.92) Y

11.68 = 11.51 Y

Y = 11.68 / 11.51 = 1.02 m
