Kenny klutz drops his physics book off his aunt's high-rise balcony.it hits the ground below 1.5 s later?

Gravity causes a falling object to fall 9.8 m/s faster every second it falls.

Kenny's book started out with no speed when it was dropped.
1.5 sec later, it was falling at (9.8 x 1.5) = 14.7 m/s .

During the fall, its average speed was 1/2(0 + 14.7) = 7.35 m/s .

Distance it covered = (average speed) x (time) =

(7.35 m/s) x (1.5 sec) = 11.025 m

A uniformly charged conducting sphere of 1.3 m diameter has a surface charge density of 8.1 µc/m2. (a) find the net charge on th

8_murik_8 [283]

<span>The surface charge density = q/A So q = surface charge density x Area The surface area of a sphere of radius R is 4*Pi*R^2. R = d/2 where d is diameter. This leaves us with 1.3/2 = 0.65. Area = 4 * pie * (0.65)^2 = 5.30998. So the net charge q = 8.1 * 10^(-6) * 5.30998 = 42.47998 * 10^(-6) The Total electric flux = Q/e_0 where , 8.854 Ă— 10â’12, e_0 is permitivity of free space. So Flux = 42.47998 * 10^(-6) / 8.854 * 10(â’12) = 4.833 * 10^(-6 - (-12)) = 4.833 * 10^(6)</span>

A pendulum is formed by taking a 2.0 kg mass and hanging it from the ceiling using a steel wire with a diameter of 1.1 mm. it is

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer: 1.39 s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem with the following equations:

$\frac{\Delta l}{l_{o}}=\frac{F}{AY}$ (1)

$T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{l_{o}}{g}}$ (2)

Where:

$\Delta l=0.05 mm=5(10)^{-5} m$ is the length the steel wire streches (taking into account 1mm=0.001 m)

$l_{o}$ is the length of the steel wire before being streched

$F=mg=(2 kg)(9.8 m/s^{2})=19.6 N$ is the force due gravity (the weight) acting on the pendulum with mass $m=2 kg$

$A$ is the transversal area of the wire

$Y=2(10)^{11} Pa$ is the Young modulus for steel

$T$ is the period of the pendulum

$g=9.8 m/s^{2}$ is the acceleration due gravity

Knowing this, let's begin by finding $A$ :

$A=\pi r^{2}=\pi (\frac{d}{2})^{2}=\pi \frac{d^{2}}{4}$ (3)

Where $d=1.1 mm=0.0011 m$ is the diameter of the wire

$A=\pi \frac{(0.0011 m)^{2}}{4}$ (4)

$A=9.5(10)^{-7}m^{2}$ (5)

Knowing this area we can isolate $l_{o}$ from (1):

$l_{o}=\frac{\Delta l AY}{F}$ (6)

And substitute $l_{o}$ in (2):

$T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{\frac{\Delta l AY}{F}}{g}}$ (7)

$T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{\frac{(5(10)^{-5} m)(9.5(10)^{-7}m^{2})(2(10)^{11} Pa)}{2(10)^{11} Pa}}{9.8 m/s^{2}}}$ (8)

Finally:

$T=1.39 s$

You are traveling at 16m/s for 18 seconds. What is your displacement?

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

Image result for You are traveling at 16m/s for 18 seconds. What is your displacement?

The average velocity of the object is multiplied by the time traveled to find the displacement. The equation x = ½( v + u)t can be manipulated, as shown below, to find any one of the four values if the other three are known.
