Many counties in Florida missed many school days in the fall of 2004 due to hurricanes that year. A solution for how to make up

those days was to add time to each school day for a portion of the year. It was decided that in order to make up a 6 hour school day, 10 minutes would be added to each day. How many extended days would be needed to make up 3 school days?

Answer:

108 extended days

Explanation:

Regular school hours a day = 6 hr

No. of school days to make up by extending the  regular hours = 3 days

Amount of time added to the regular hours of school = 10 min

No. of extended school days to make up the 3 school days by following the above mentioned criteria be x.

Time of school hours in 3 days = 3\times 6= 18\,hr\,\,\,\, ;or\,\,\, (18\times 60)\,minutes

\therefore x=\frac{18\times 60}{10}

x=108\,\,days are required to make up 3 days of school having 6 hours of regular timing with 10 minutes of add-on time each day.

The field between two charged parallel plates is kept constant. If the two plates are brought closer together, the potential dif
Komok [63]

Since the electric field between the plates is constant, If the two plates are brought closer together, the potential difference between the two plates decreases

The relation between potential difference and the electric field is given by ΔV = E.d

Since the electric field is maintained constant, the potential difference is directly inversely proportional to the distance between the plates.

The potential difference between the plates will therefore likewise decrease if the distance between the plates is reduced, we will state in this case.

The energy required to move a unit charge, or one coulomb, from one point to the other in a circuit is measured as the potential difference between the two points. Potential difference is measured in volts or joules per coulomb.

You push on a cart (18.0kg) at a 30 degree below horizontal angle. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the chair and the
podryga [215]

Given that force is applied at an angle of 30 degree below the horizontal

So let say force applied if F

now its two components are given as

F_x = Fcos30


F_y = Fsin30


Now the normal force on the block is given as

N = Fsin30 + mg

N = 0.5F + (18\times 9.8)

N = 0.5F + 176.4

now the friction force on the cart is given as

F_f = \mu N

F_f = 0.625(0.5F + 176.4)

F_f = 110.25 + 0.3125F

now if cart moves with constant speed then net force on cart must be zero

so now we have

F_f + F_x = 0

Fcos30 - (110.25 + 0.3125F) = 0

0.866F - 0.3125F = 110.25

F = 199.2 N

so the force must be 199.2 N

A physics major is working to pay her college tuition by performing in a traveling carnival. She rides a motorcycle inside a hol
il63 [147K]

Answer:

v = 12.1 m/s

Explanation:

  • When at the top of the circle, there are two forces acting on the combined mass of the rider and the motorcycle.
  • These are the force of gravity (downward) and the normal force, which is directed from the surface away from it, perpendicular to the surface.
  • In this case, as the motorcycle runs in the interior of the circle, at the top point this force is completely vertical, and is also downward.
  • Since the motorcycle is moving in a vertical circle, there must be a force, keeping the object moving around a circle.
  • This force is the centripetal force, aims towards the center of the circle, and is just the net force aiming in this direction at any point.
  • At the top point, this force is just the sum of the normal force and the weight of the mass of the rider and the motorcycle combined, as follows (we take the direction towards the center as positive):

       F_{c} = N + m*g (1)

  • Now, we know that the centripetal force is related with the tangential speed at this point and the radius of the circle as follows:

       F_{c} = m*\frac{v^{2}}{r} (2)

  • Since the normal force takes any value as needed to make (1) equal to (2),  if the speed diminishes, it will be needed less force to keep the equality valid.
  • In the limit, when the motorcyvle tires barely touch the surface, this normal force becomes zero.
  • In this condition, from (1) and (2), we can find the minimum possible value of  the speed that still keeps the motorcycle touching the surface, as follows:
  • v_{min} =\sqrt{r*g} =\sqrt{15.0m*9.8m/s2} = 12.1 m/s (3)
