An ice rescue team pulls a stranded hiker off a frozen lake by throwing him a rope and pulling him horizontally across the essen

tially frictionless ice with a constant force. The hiker weighs 1040 N, and accelerates across the ice at 1.10 m/s2. What is the magnitude of the tension in the rope? (Ignore the mass of the rope.)

Answer:T=116.84 N

Explanation:

Given

Weight of hiker =1040 N

acceleration a=1.1 m/s^2

Force exerted by Rope is equal to Tension in the rope

F_{net}=T=ma_{net}

T=\frac{1040}{g}\times 1.1

T=116.84 N

The period T of a pendulum of length L is measured to determine g at the surface of Earth. The equation used is T=2π√L/g. The ma
saul85 [17]

Answer:

C: Variation in the value of g as the pendulum bob moves along its arc.

Explanation:

The formula for period of a simple pendulum is given by;

T = 2π√(L/g)

Where;

L is length

g is acceleration due to gravity

Now, from this period equation, it is clear that the only thing that can affect the period of a simple pendulum are changes to its length and acceleration due to gravity.

Looking at the options, the only one that talks about either the length or gravity as being potential causes of the error is option C

Why does a block of plastic released under water come up to the surface of water.
SCORPION-xisa [38]

A block of plastic released under water will come up to the surface of the water because the density of the plastic is less than the density of water.

<h3>What is density?</h3>

Density is the amount of mass a substance contains per its unit volume. It means the number of particles that can be packed into a unit space of that substance.

<h3>How does density determine whether an object will float or sink?</h3>

When an object is immersed in a liquid, it experiences two forces - gravitational force and an upward buoyant force called upthrust. If the density of the object is more than the density of the liquid, gravitational force will be greater than upthrust and the object will sink, but if the density of the object is less than the density of the liquid, upthrust will be greater than gravitational force and the object will float. That is why a block of plastic will come up to the surface when released under water, because it is less dense than water.

A conductor shaped as a circular loop with a radius of 4.0 m is located in a uniform but changing magnetic field. If the maximum
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

\frac{\delta B}{\delta t}= 0.0995 \  T/s

Explanation:

Given that :

The radius of the circular loop = 4.0 m

Maximum Emf E_{max} = 5.0 V

The  maximum rate at which the magnetic field strength is changing if the magnetic field is oriented perpendicular to the plane in which the loop lies can be determined via the expression;

E_{max} = Area (A) * \frac{\delta B}{\delta t}

E_{max} = \pi r^2 * \frac{\delta B}{\delta t}

5.0 = \pi * (4.0)^2 * \frac{\delta B}{\delta t}

5.0 = 50.27 * \frac{\delta B}{\delta t}

\frac{\delta B}{\delta t}= \frac{5}{50.27}

\frac{\delta B}{\delta t}= 0.0995 \  T/s
