At time t = 0 an elevator starts moving upward from the ground at a constant speed vo. At a later time t = T1 = 2.35s a marble i

s "let go" through the floor. In other words, imagine a marble resting on the floor of the elevator and a trap door of sorts opening up from under the marble. The marble then hits the ground at a still later time t = T2 = 11.2s.
1. What is the maximum height (above the ground) that the marble reaches in this process?

Answer:

\frac{v_o^2}{19.62} + 2.35v_o

Explanation:

The marble released through the trap door inside the elevator going upward at a speed vo would have an upward velocity of vo, but begins to experience a downward acceleration g = 9.81m/s^2. This is essentially same as throwing the marble up at a speed of vo. We can solve for the greatest height using the law of energy conservation.

When the marble is traveling up, its potential energy is converted to kinetic energy:

E_p = E_k

mgh = mv_o^2/2

where m is the marble mass and h is the vertical distance traveled from the releasing point to the maximum height.

We can divide both sides by m

gh = v_o^2/2

h = \frac{v_o^2}{2g} = \frac{v_0^2}{2*9.81} = \frac{v_0^2}{19.62}

This is only partial of the height from the ground. To find the total height we need to add the height from the ground to the release point, which is the distance traveled by the elevator within time t = 2.35s at speed vo

\frac{v_o^2}{19.62} + 2.35v_o

Plug in the value for vo and we can calculate the maximum height

After landing on an unexplored Klingon planet, Spock tests for the direction of the magnetic field by firing a beam of electrons
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

Magnetic field is in south west direction .

Explanation:

Let us represent various direction by  i , j, k . i representing east , j representing north and k representing vertically upward direction .

magnetic field is represented vectorially as follows

B = B₀ ( - i - j )

In the first case velocity of electron

v = v k

Force = q ( v x B )

= -e [ vk x B₀ ( - i - j ) ]

= evB₀ ( j -i )

Direction of force is north -west .

In the second case velocity of electron

v = vj

Force = -e [ vj x B₀ ( - i - j ) ]

= - evB₀ k

force is downward

In the third case, velocity of electron

v = v( -j +i )

Force = -e [ v( -j +i ) x B₀ ( - i - j ) ]

= 2 evB₀ k

Force is upward.

The planet Krypton has a mass of 7.6 × 1023 kg and radius of 1.7 × 106 m. What is the acceleration of an object in free fall nea
olga55 [171]

Answer:

17.55 m/s²

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Mass of Krypton, M = 7.6 * 10^23 kg

Radius, R = 1.7 * 10^6 m

Gravitational constant, G = 6.6726 * 10^(-11) Nm²/kg²

Acceleration due to gravity of planet of mass M is given as:

g = GM/R²

Since the object is close to the surface of Krypton, we can say that the distance from the Centre of Krypton is the radius of the planet Krypton.

Therefore,

g = (6.6726 * 10^(-11) * 7.6 * 10^23)/(1.7 * 10^6)²

g = 17.55 m/s²

A solid disk has a mass of 162 kg and a radius of 1.30m. This
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

754.3 m

Explanation:

The moment of inertia of the solid disk:

I = mR^2/2

Where m is the disk mass and R is the radius of the disk.

I = 162*1.3^2/2 = 136.89 kgm^2

The angular kinetic energy of the disk is then:

E_k = I\omega^2/2 = 136.89 * 18^2/2 = 22176.18 J

By law of energy conservation, this energy is converted to potential energy to pick up the 3kg block

let g = 9.8 m/s2

E_p = m_bgh = 22176.18 J

where m_b = 3 kg is the mass of block

3*9.8h = 22176.18

h = \frac{22176.18}{3*9.8} = 754.3 m

Andrew is riding his bike is riding in a circle that has a radius of 10 m. He keeps
Dmitrij [34]

The acceleration that Andrew experience  during his ride is 3.6m/s²

The formula for calculating centripetal acceleration is expressed as:

a = v²/r

v is the speed

r is the radius

Given the following expression

v = 6m/s

r = 10m

Substitute the given parameters into the formula

a = 6²/10

a = 36/10

a = 3.6m/s²

Hence the acceleration that Andrew experience  during his ride is 3.6m/s²
