A 3.0-kg brick rests on a perfectly smooth ramp inclined at 34° above the horizontal. The brick is kept from sliding down the pl

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

d=0.137 m ⇒13.7 cm

Explanation:

Given data

m (Mass)=3.0 kg

α(incline) =34°

Spring Constant (force constant)=120 N/m

d (distance)=?

Solution

F=mg

F=(3.0)(9.8)

F=29.4 N

As we also know that

Force parallel to the incline=FSinα

F=29.4×Sin(34)

F=16.44 N

d(distance)=F/Spring Constant

d(distance)=16.44/120

d(distance)=0.137 m ⇒13.7 cm

find the potential energy of an aircraft weighing 10000 bs at 5000 ft true altitude and 125 kts true air speed

Cloud [144]

Answer:

$U=5*10^7ft.Ib$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Weight $W= 10000bs$

Altitude $H=5000ft$

Speed $V=125kts\\1kts=0.514m/s\\V=125*0.514=>64.25m/s$

Generally the equation for Potential energy ids mathematically given as

$Potential\ Energy\ U=mgh$

$U=Wh$

$U=10000*5000$

$U=5*10^7ft.Ib$

Show that the entire Paschen series is in the infrared part of the spectrum. To do this, you only need to calculate the shortest

mr_godi [17]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the shortest wavelength in the series is shown below:-

$\frac{1}{\lambda} = R(\frac{1}{n_f^2} - \frac{1}{n_i^2} )$

Where

$\lambda$ represents wavelength

R represents Rydberg's constant

$n_f$ represents Final energy states

and $n_i$ represents initial energy states

Now Substitute is

$1.097\times 10^7\ m^{-1}\ for\ R, \infty for\ n_i,\ 3 for\ n_i,\\\\\ \frac{1}{\lambda} = R(\frac{1}{n_f^2} - \frac{1}{n_i^2} )$

now we will put the values into the above formula

$= 1.097\times 10^7 m^{-1}(\frac{1}{3^2} - \frac{1}{\infty^2} )\\\\ = 1.097\times10^7\ m^{-1} (\frac{1}{9} )$

$= 1218888.889 m^{-1}$

Now we will rewrite the answer in the term of $\lambda$

$\lambda = \frac{1}{1218888.889} m\\\\ = 0.82\times 10^{-6} m$

So, the whole Paschen series is in the part of the spectrum.

What is the acceleration due to gravity in a region where a simple pendulum having a length 75.000 cm has a period of 1.7357 s?

Ksju [112]

Answer:

Explanation:

T = 2π $\sqrt{L/g}$

(T / 2π)² = L/g

g = 4π²L/T²

g = 4π²(0.75000)/(1.7357)²

g = 9.82814766...

g = 9.8281 m/s²
