T = tension force in the rope in upward direction

m = mass of the box attached at end of rope = 56 kg

W = weight of the box in downward direction due to gravity

a = acceleration of the box in upward direction = 5.10 m/s²

weight of the box is given as

W = mg

inserting the values

W = (56) (9.8)

W = 548.8 N


force equation for the motion of the box is given as

T - W = ma

inserting the values

T - 548.8 = (56) (5.10)

T = 834.4 N

What is the minimal mass of helium (density 0.18 kg/m3) needed to lift a balloon carrying two people in a basket, if the total m
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:   
 M[min] = M[basket+people+ balloon, not gas] * ΔR/R[b] 
 Î”R is the difference in density between the gas inside and surrounding the balloon. 
 R[b] is the density of gas inside the baloon.   
 ==================================== 
 Let V be the volume of helium required. 
 Upthrust on helium = Weight of the volume of air displaced = Density of air * g * Volume of helium = 1.225 * g * V   
 U = 1.225gV newtons 
 ---- 
 Weight of Helium = Volume of Helium * Density of Helium * g 
 W[h] = 0.18gV N   
 Net Upward force produced by helium, F = Upthrust - Weight = (1.225-0.18) gV = 1.045gV N  -----

 
 Weight of 260kg = 2549.7 N 
 Then to lift the whole thing, F > 2549.7 
 So minimal F would be 2549.7 
 ---- 
 1.045gV = 2549.7 
 V = 248.8 m^3   
 Mass of helium required = V * Density of Helium = 248.8 * 0.18 = 44.8kg (3sf)   
 =====   
 Let the density of the surroundings be R 
 Then U-W = (1-0.9)RgV = 0.1RgV   
 So 0.1RgV = 2549.7 N 
 V = 2549.7 / 0.1Rg   
 Assuming that R is again 1.255, V = 2071.7 m^3 
 Then mass of hot air required = 230.2 * 0.9R = 2340 kg   
 Notice from this that M = 2549.7/0.9Rg * 0.1R so   
 M[min] = Weight of basket * (difference in density between balloon's gas and surroundings / density of gas in balloon)   
 M[min] = M[basket] * ΔR/R[b]

There are Z protons in the nucleus of an atom, where Z is the atomic number of the element. An α particle carries a charge of +2
qaws [65]

Answer:

r = 2.84 \times 10^{-14} m

Explanation:

As per energy conservation we know that the electrostatic potential energy of the charge system is equal to the initial kinetic energy of the alpha particle

So here we can write it as

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{k(2e)(ze)}{r}

now we know that

m = 1.67 \times 10^{-27} kg

e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} C

z = 79

here kinetic energy of the incident alpha particle is given as

KE = 6.4 \times 10^{-13} J

now we have

6.4 \times 10^{-13} = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(1.6 \times 10^{-19})^2(79)}{r}

now we have

r = 2.84 \times 10^{-14} m

A block is thrown with an initial velocity of 30.0 m/s at an angle of 25.0o above the horizontal. What is the highest elevation
Serga [27]

The highest elevation reached by the ball in its trajectory is 16.4 m.

To find the answer, we need to know about the maximum height reached in a projectile.

What's the mathematical expression of the maximum height reached in a projectile motion?

  • The maximum height= U²× sin²(θ)/g
  • U= initial velocity, θ= angle of projectile with horizontal and g= acceleration due to gravity

What's the maximum height reached by a block that is thrown with an initial velocity of 30.0 m/s at an angle of 25° above the horizontal?

  • Here, U = 30.0 m/s and θ= 25°
  • Maximum height= 30²× sin²(25)/9.8

= 16.4m

Thus, we can conclude that the highest elevation reached by the ball in its trajectory is 16.4 m.
