A college student holds a pail full of water by the handle and whirls it around in a vertical circle at a constant speed. the ra

dius of this circle is 0.95 m. what is the minimum speed that the pail must have at the top of its circular motion if the water is not to spill out of the upside-down pail

Here we have a circular motion. In that type of motion two new forces appear: centrifugal and centripetal. Centrifugal force tries to move object away frome the center of rotation. Centripetal force is the reason why object moves in a circle.

According to Newton's first law, in order for water not to spill out total force acting on water must be equal to zero. Forces acting on the water are gravitational and centrifugal.
0= F_{g} + F_{c}  \\ - [tex]F_{g} = F_{c} \\ m*g= \frac{m* v^{2} }{r}  \\ g= \frac{ v^{2} }{r} \\  v^{2} =g*r \\  v= \sqrt{g*r}  \\ v= \sqrt{9.81*0.95}  \\ v= \sqrt{9.3195}  \\ v=3.1 m/s [/tex]

Forces have opposite signs as they act in opposite directions. But their value is the same so we can ignore signs:

The yellow wire connected to a power supply carries 12v. if the power supply provides 60w of power to the yellow wire, how much
saul85 [17]
In physics, the rate of power in Watts could be determined by multiplying the voltage in volts, by the current in Amperes. In equation, that would be

P = IV

Substituting the values into the equation,

60 W = I*12V
I = 60/12
I = 5 Amperes

Therefore, a current of 5 Amperes is passing through the yellow wire.

What ocean depth would the volume of an aluminium sphere be reduced by 0.10%
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

6400 m

Explanation:

You need to use the bulk modulus, K:

K = ρ dP/dρ

where ρ is density and P is pressure

Since ρ is changing by very little, we can say:

K ≈ ρ ΔP/Δρ

Therefore, solving for ΔP:

ΔP = K Δρ / ρ

We can calculate K from Young's modulus (E) and Poisson's ratio (ν):

K = E / (3 (1 - 2ν))

Substituting:

ΔP = E / (3 (1 - 2ν)) (Δρ / ρ)

Before compression:

ρ = m / V

After compression:

ρ+Δρ = m / (V - 0.001 V)

ρ+Δρ = m / (0.999 V)

ρ+Δρ = ρ / 0.999

1 + (Δρ/ρ) = 1 / 0.999

Δρ/ρ = (1 / 0.999) - 1

Δρ/ρ = 0.001 / 0.999

Given:

E = 69 GPa = 69×10⁹ Pa

ν = 0.32

ΔP = 69×10⁹ Pa / (3 (1 - 2×0.32)) (0.001/0.999)

ΔP = 64.0×10⁶ Pa

If we assume seawater density is constant at 1027 kg/m³, then:

ρgh = P

(1027 kg/m³) (9.81 m/s²) h = 64.0×10⁶ Pa

h = 6350 m

Rounded to two sig-figs, the ocean depth at which the sphere's volume is reduced by 0.10% is approximately 6400 m.

A solid cylinder with a mass of 2.46 kg and a radius of 0.049 m starts from rest at a height of 4.80 m and rolls down a 24.3 ◦ s
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

v_{f}\approx 2.097\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

Let assume that the solid cylinder rolls down a frictionless incline. The translational speed can be found by using the Principle of Energy Conservation and the Work-Energy Theorem:

m_{cyl}\cdot g\cdot y_{o} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m_{cyl} \left( 1+ \frac{1}{R}\right)\cdot v_{f}^{2}

g\cdot y_{o} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot\left( 1+ \frac{1}{R}\right)\cdot v_{f}^{2}

The translational speed is:

v_{f} = \sqrt{\frac{2\cdot g\cdot y_{o}}{\left(1 + \frac{1}{R}  \right)}}

v_{f} = \sqrt{\frac{2\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot (4.80\,m)}{\left(1 + \frac{1}{0.049\,m}  \right)} }

v_{f}\approx 2.097\,\frac{m}{s}

A block of size 20m x 10 mx 5 m exerts a force of 30N. Calculate the
Orlov [11]

Answer:

We know that force applied per unit area is called pressure.

Pressure = Force/ Area

When force is constant than pressure is inversely proportional to area.

1- Calculating the area of three face:

A1 = 20m x 10 m =200 Square meter

A2 = 10 mx 5 m = 50 Square meter

A3 = 20m x 5 m = 100 Square meter

Therefore A1 is maximum and A2 is minimum.

2- Calculate pressure:

P = F/ A1 = 30 / 200 = 0.15 Nm⁻²  ( minimum pressure)

P = F / A2 = 30 / 50 = 0.6 Nm⁻²   ( maximum pressure)

Hence greater the area less will be the pressure and vice versa.
