How does the mass affect the speed as it rolls down a slope?

VikaD [51]

As we use the Kinetic energy and the equation is 1/2mv^2, changing its mass will change its speed and its energy. So more mass, more speed more energy. also the gravitational potential energy; mass x gravity x height; more mass and more height more speed as it go down to the slope! Hope it helps!

A firecracker in a coconut blows the coconut into three pieces. Twopieces of equal mass fly off south and west, perpendicular to

loris [4]

Answer:

V = 13m/s

North-East (i.e. 45 degree from North)

Explanation:

This question deals with the idea of momentum.

Since the directions of a compass are fixed, we can take south as horizontal and west as vertical. Since both pieces of coconut are of equal mass, then the resultant of the two pieces would be in between South and West and the third piece would be opposite this direction and be in the North-East (i.e. 45 degree from North) direction

To find the speed of the third piece, we first find the speed on the two pieces of the coconut in terms of $V_{x}$ (horizontal component of velocity) and $V_{y}$ (vertical component of velocity)

We have

$V_{y}$ = Velocity in South direction = 18m/s

$m_{y}$ = Mass of piece in South direction = m

$V_{x}$ = Velocity in West direction = 18m/s

$m_{x}$ = Mass of piece in West direction = m

$V_{ry}$ = Velocity of Third Piece in North direction = unknown

$V_{rx}$ = Velocity of Third Piece in East direction = unknown

$m$ = Mass of third piece = 2m

$mV_{ry} = m_{y} V_{y} \\ 2mV_{ry} = m18\\ V_{ry} = 9$

$mV_{rx} = m_{x} V_{x} \\ 2mV_{rx} = m18\\ V_{rx} = 9$

Since we now know the horizontal and vertical component of the velocity of the third piece of coconut we find the resultant velocity. Since we know the direction is North-East, we can imagine a right angled triangle with base of 9 and height 9 and the hypotenuse equal to the resultant velocity .

We can simply apply the Pythagoras theorem and find the hypotenuse

$Hypotenuse^{2} = Height^{2} + Base^{2} \\ V_{3}^2 = 9^{2} + 9^{2} \\ V = 12.728 m/s$

V = 13m/s

A 600-turn solenoid, 25 cm long, has a diameter of 2.5 cm. A 14-turn coil is wound tightly around the center of the solenoid. If

Delvig [45]

Answer:

The induced emf in the short coil during this time is 1.728 x 10⁻⁴ V

Explanation:

The magnetic field at the center of the solenoid is given by;

B = μ(N/L)I

Where;

μ is permeability of free space

N is the number of turn

L is the length of the solenoid

I is the current in the solenoid

The rate of change of the field is given by;

$\frac{\delta B}{\delta t} = \frac{\mu N \frac{\delta i}{\delta t} }{L} \\\\\frac{\delta B}{\delta t} = \frac{4\pi *10^{-7} *600* \frac{5}{0.6} }{0.25}\\\\\frac{\delta B}{\delta t} =0.02514 \ T/s$

The induced emf in the shorter coil is calculated as;

$E = NA\frac{\delta B}{\delta t}$

where;

N is the number of turns in the shorter coil

A is the area of the shorter coil

Area of the shorter coil = πr²

The radius of the coil = 2.5cm / 2 = 1.25 cm = 0.0125 m

Area of the shorter coil = πr² = π(0.0125)² = 0.000491 m²

$E = NA\frac{\delta B}{\delta t}$

E = 14 x 0.000491 x 0.02514

E = 1.728 x 10⁻⁴ V

Therefore, the induced emf in the short coil during this time is 1.728 x 10⁻⁴ V

What might cause convection currents in a hot spring?

Aleks [24]

Answer and explanation;

-The cause of convention currents in a hot spring is rainwater and melted snow is cool and denser and sinks to the bottom of the hot spring where it is heated by a shallow magma chamber. The heated water expands and is less dense and rises to the top.

Explanation;

-Convention Current is the movement of fluid caused by the differences in temperature. Transference of heat from one part of a fluid to another.

-Lighter (less dense), warm material rises while heavier (more dense) cool material sinks. It is this movement that creates circulation patterns known as convection currents in the atmosphere, in water, and in the mantle of Earth. In the atmosphere, as air warms it rises, allowing cooler air to flow in underneath.
