Answer:

Explanation:

If you look closely, force 1 does not reach 0.2 until 0.4 force 2 reaches 0.2 at about 0.2 - hope that made sense :P

A 4kg block and a 2kg block can move on horizontal frictionless surface. The blocks are accelerated by a +12-N force that pushes

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

a) -4 N

b) +4 N

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram for each block.

For the large block, there are 2 forces: 12 N pushing to the right, and F pushing to the left.

For the small block, there is 1 force, F pushing to the right.

There are also weight and normal forces in the vertical direction, but we can ignore those.

Sum of forces on the large block in the x direction:

∑F = ma

12 − F = 4a

Sum of forces on the small block in the x direction:

∑F = ma

F = 2a

2F = 4a

Substitute:

12 − F = 2F

12 = 3F

F = 4

The small block pushes on the large block 4 N to the left (-4 N).

The large block pushes on the small block 4 N to the right (+4 N).

There is a clever kitchen gadget for drying lettuce leaves after you wash them. It consists of a cylindrical container mounted s

lukranit [14]

Answer:

Option B

$a=19 m/s^{2}$

Explanation:

Given information

Radius of container, r=12cm=12/100=0.12m

Angular velocity= 2 rev/s, converted to rad/s we multiply by 2π

Angular velocity, $\omega=2*2\pi =12.56637061$

We know that speed, $v=r\omega$

Centripetal acceleration, $a=\frac {v^{2}}{r}$ and substituting $v=r\omega$ we obtain that

$a=r\omega^{2}$

Substituting \omega for 12.56637061 and r for 0.12

$a=0.12*(12.56637061)^{2}=18.94964045 m/s^{2}$

Rounded off, $a=19 m/s^{2}$

A beam of light has a wavelength of 650 nm in vacuum. (a) What is the speed of this light in a liquid whose index of refraction

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

The speed of this light and wavelength in a liquid are $2.04\times10^{8}\ m/s$ and 442 nm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength = 650 nm

Index refraction = 1.47

(a). We need to calculate the speed

Using formula of speed

$n = \dfrac{c}{v}$

Where, n = refraction index

c = speed of light in vacuum

v = speed of light in medium

Put the value into the formula

$1.47=\dfrac{3\times10^{8}}{v}$

$v=\dfrac{3\times10^{8}}{1.47}$

$v= 2.04\times10^{8}\ m/s$

(b). We need to calculate the wavelength

Using formula of wavelength

$n=\dfrac{\lambda_{0}}{\lambda}$

$\lambda=\dfrac{\lambda_{0}}{n}$

Where, $\lambda_{0}$ = wavelength in vacuum

$\lambda$ = wavelength in medium

Put the value into the formula

$\lambda=\dfrac{650\times10^{-9}}{1.47}$

$\lambda=442\times10^{-9}\ m$

Hence, The speed of this light and wavelength in a liquid are $2.04\times10^{8}\ m/s$ and 442 nm.

A speed-time graph is shown below:

VladimirAG [237]

Answer: $0.5 m/s^{2}$

Explanation:

Average acceleration $a_{ave}$ is the variation of velocity $\Delta V$ over a specified period of time $\Delta t$ :

$a_{ave}=\frac{\Delta V}{\Delta t}}$

Where:

$\Delta V=V_{f}-V_{o}$ being $V_{o}=0 cm/s$ the initial velocity and $V_{f}=4 cm/s$ the final velocity (according to the information given from the described graph)

$\Delta t=8 s$

Then:

$a_{ave}=\frac{4 cm/s -0 cm/s}{8 s}}$

$a_{ave}=0.5 m/s^{2}$

Write a note on unity of ant

Tom [10]

Answer: When a pathogen enters their colony, ants change their behavior to avoid the outbreak of disease. In this way, they protect the queen, brood and young workers from becoming ill. These results, from a study carried out in collaboration between the groups of Sylvia Cremer at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (IST Austria) and of Laurent Keller at the University of Lausanne, are published today in the journal Science.

Explanation: search for it.
