Alex throws a 0.15-kg rubber ball down onto the floor. The ball’s speed just before impact is 6.5 m/s and just after is 3.5 m/s.

If the ball is in contact with the floor for 0.050 s, what is the magnitude of the average force applied by the floor on the ball?

Answer:

F = 30 N  Directed up

Explanation:

We can solve this problem using the momentum and momentum relationship.

      I = ΔP

     I = ∫ F dt

As we are asked for the average force, that leaves the integral, giving

    I = F t

    F t = m v_{f} - m v₀

    F = m (v_{f}-v₀) / t

Note that, if you define the upward positive direction, the initial velocity is negative

Let's calculate

     F = 0.15 (3.5 - (-6.5)) / 0.050

     F = 30 N

Answer:

460 g

Explanation:

Heat lost by the warm water = heat gained by the cold water

-mCΔT = mCΔT

-m (4.184 J/g/K) (37°C − 85°C) = (1000 g) (4.184 J/g/K) (37°C − 15°C)

-m (37°C − 85°C) = (1000 g) (37°C − 15°C)

-m (-48°C) = (1000 g) (22°C)

m = 458 g

Rounded to two significant figures, you need a mass of 460 g of water.

A manufacturer claims that a carpet will not generate more than 5.8 kV of static electricity What magnitude of charge would have
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

4.4×10⁻⁷ Coulomb

Explanation:

V = Voltage = 5.8 kV

d = Potential distance = 2.8 mm = 0.0028 m

A = Area = 0.3×0.08 = 0.024 m²

ε₀ = permittivity constant in a Vacuum= 8.85×10⁻¹² F/m

\frac{Q}{V}=\frac{A\epsilon_0}{d}\\\Rightarrow \Q=V\frac{A\epsilon_0}{d}\\\Rightarrow Q=5.8\times 10^3\frac{0.024\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}}{0.0028}\\\Rightarrow Q=4.4\times 10^{-7}\ C

Magnitude of charge transferred between a carpet and a shoe is 4.4×10⁻⁷ Coulomb.

What is the IEEE 802.11a center frequency in GHz, and what are its max/min data rates in Mbps? What is the IEEE 802.11b center f
kogti [31]

Explanation:

What is IEEE 802.11?

IEEE 802.11 is a set of WLAN standards for communication developed by the Institute for Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and is unarguably most widely used WLAN technology.

Features: IEEE 802.11a

  • The operating frequency band is 5 GHz.
  • The maximum theoretical data rate is 54 Mbps, the typical throughput is around 25 Mbps and minimum data rate is 6 Mbps.
  • It can support 64 users per access point.

Features: IEEE 802.11b

  • The operating frequency band is 2.4 GHz.
  • The maximum theoretical data rate is 11 Mbps but typical throughput is around 6 Mbps and minimum data rate is 1 Mbps.
  • It can support 32 users per access point.

Wireless Coverage IEEE 802.11a Vs IEEE 802.11b:

  • Signal coverage is one of the most important factors among users.
  • The transmission range of IEEE 802.11a is not greater than 100 ft in indoor setting whereas IEEE 802.11b has a superior performance in this regard with transmission range up to 150 ft in indoor setting.
  • The data rate has a direct relation with the access point coverage area, a higher data rate means less coverage area and a lower data rate results in increased coverage.
