By Newton's 2nd law of motion, F = ma, where F is force, m is mass, and a is acceleration.

Rearranging this equation to find acceleration would give us:
a = F/m

The horizontal force to the right is 10N, because the box is pushed to the right with a force of 20N, and the friction force of 10N opposes that, so:
20N - 10N = 10N

The mass is 2kg.

Putting these values into the equation gives us:
a = F/m
= 10/2
= 5ms^-2

The acceleration of the box is 5ms^-2

The moment of inertia is $24.8 kg m^2$

Explanation:

The total moment of inertia of the system is the sum of the moment of inertia of the rod + the moment of inertia of the two balls.

The moment of inertia of the rod about its centre is given by

$I_r = \frac{1}{12}ML^2$

where

M = 24 kg is the mass of the rod

L = 0.96 m is the length of the rod

Substituting,

$I_r = \frac{1}{12}(24)(0.96)^2=1.84 kg m^2$

The moment of inertia of one ball is given by

$I_b = mr^2$

where

m = 50 kg is the mass of the ball

$r=\frac{L}{2}=\frac{0.96}{2}=0.48 m$ is the distance of each ball from the axis of rotation

So we have

$I_b = (50)(0.48)^2=11.5 kg m^2$

Therefore, the total moment of inertia of the system is

$I=I_r + 2I_b = 1.84+ 2(11.5)=24.8 kg m^2$

Find the intensity of a 55 dB sound given I 0=10^-12W/m^2

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

3.16 × $10^{-7}$ W/ $m^{2}$

Explanation:

β(dB)=10 × $log_{10}(\frac{I}{I_{0} })$

$I_{0}$ = $10^{-12}$ W/ $m^{2}$

β=55 dB

Therefore plugging into the equation the values,

55=10 $log_{10}(\frac{I}{ [tex]10^{-12}$ })[/tex]

5.5= $log_{10}(\frac{I}{ [tex]10^{-12}$ })[/tex]

$10^{5.5}$ = $\frac{I}{10^{-12} }$

316227.76× $10^{-12}$ = I

I= 3.16 × $10^{-7}$ W/ $m^{2}$

Green light (λ = 518 nm) strikes a single slit at normal incidence. What width slit will produce a central maximum that is 3.00

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

6.9066 × 10⁻⁵ m

Explanation:

For constructive interference, the expression is:

$d\times sin\theta=m\times \lambda$

Where, m = 1, 2, .....

d is the distance between the slits.

The formula can be written as:

$sin\theta=\frac {\lambda}{d}\times m$ ....1

The location of the bright fringe is determined by :

$y=L\times tan\theta$

Where, L is the distance between the slit and the screen.

For small angle , $sin\theta=tan\theta$

So,

Formula becomes:

$y=L\times sin\theta$

Using 1, we get:

$y=L\times \frac {\lambda}{d}\times m$

Thus, the distance between the central maximum is 3.00 cm

First bright fringe , m = 1 occur at 3.00 / 2 = 1.50 cm

Since,

1 cm = 0.01 m

y = 0.0150 m

Given L = 2.00 m

λ = 518 nm

Since, 1 nm = 10⁻⁹ m

So,

λ = 518 × 10⁻⁹ m

Applying the formula as:

$0.0150\ m=2.00\ m\times \frac {518\times 10^{-9}\ m}{d}\times 1$

<u>⇒ d, distance between the slits = 6.9066 × 10⁻⁵ m</u>
