Answer:

t = 1.16 s.

Explanation:

Given,

speed of conveyor belt, v = 3.2 m/s

coefficient of friction,f = 0.28

Using newton second law

f = ma

and we also know that frictional force

f = μ N

f = μ m g

equating both the force equation

a = μ g

a = 0.28 x 9.81

a = 2.75 m/s²

Using Kinematic equation

v = u + at

3.2 = 0 + 2.75 x t

t = 1.16 s.

Time taken by the box to move without slipping is 1.16 s.

n astronaut who weighs 800 N on the surface of the earth lifts off from planet Zuton in a space ship. The free-fall acceleration

ANTONII [103]

Answer: 0.29 kN

Explanation:

We have the following data:

$W_{E}=800 N$ is the weight of the astronaut on Earth

$g_{E}=9.8 m/s^{2}$ is the free fall acceleration due gravity on Earth (directed downwards)

$g_{Z}=3 m/s^{2}$ is the free fall acceleration due gravity on Zuton (directed downwards)

$a=0.5 m/s^{2}$ is the acceleration of the spaceship at litoff (directed upwards)

We have to find the <u>magnitude of the force</u> $F$ the space ship exerts on the astronaut.

Firstly, we have to know weight has a direct relation with the mass and the acceleration due gravity. In the case of Earth is:

$W_{E}=mg_{E}$ (1)

Where $m$ is the mass of the atronaut.

Isolating $m$ :

$m=\frac{W_{E}}{g_{E}}$ (2)

$m=\frac{800 N}{9.8 m/s^{2}}$ (3)

$m=81.63 kg$ (4)

Now that we know the mass of the astronaut, we can find its weight on Zuton:

$W_{Z}=mg_{Z}$ (5)

$W_{Z}=(81.63 kg)(3 m/s^{2})$ (6)

$W_{Z}=244.89 N$ (7)

Then, we can calculate the force the space ship exerts on the astronaut by the following equation:

$F-W_{Z}=m.a$ (8)

Isolating $F$ :

$F=m.a+W_{Z}$ (9)

$F=(81.63 kg)(0.5 m/s^{2})+244.89 N$ (10)

$F=285.7 N \frac{1 kN}{1000 N}=0.285 kN$ (11)

Finally:

$F=0.285 kN \approx 0.29 kN$

In this week's experiment, you send an unpolarized light beam through two polarizers in series. You orient the first polarizer s

g100num [7]

Answer:

Part a)

$\theta = 90 degree$

so the polarization axis of two polarizers must be at 90 degree

Part b)

$\theta = 20 + 14.3 = 34.3 degree$

(vi) set the second polarizer so that its angular scale reads 34.3 degrees.

Explanation:

Part 1)

As per law of Malus we know that the intensity of light coming from the second polarizer and the intensity of the light from first polarizer is related as

$I = I_o cos^2\theta$

now we know that we rotate the second polarizer till the intensity of the light becomes zero

so we will have

$I = 0$

so we will have

$\theta = 90 degree$

so the polarization axis of two polarizers must be at 90 degree

Part b)

when two axis are inclined at 90 degree then scale reads 104.3 degree

so here the scale exceeds the reading by

$\Delta \theta = 104.3 - 90 = 14.3$

so in order to make them inclined at 20 degree we will have

$\theta = 20 + 14.3 = 34.3 degree$

(vi) set the second polarizer so that its angular scale reads 34.3 degrees.
