Magnitude is the absolute max velocity a person can reach while falling ⇒ answer D

Explanation:

Terminal velocity is the maximum velocity attainable by an object

as it falls

An object dropped from rest will increase its speed until it reaches terminal velocity
terminal velocity is the point at which the velocity is no longer getting greater
At terminal velocity air resistance force and weight are equal so speed is constant

Example:

A falling person at low altitude will reach terminal velocity after about 12 seconds, falling some 450 m in that time. He will then maintain this speed without falling any faster

Absolute value means the non-negative value

That means the magnitude of the value without its direction

The answer of the question is:

Magnitude is the absolute max velocity a person can reach while falling

The membrane that surrounds a certain type of living cell has a surface area of 5.3 x 10-9 m2 and a thickness of 1.1 x 10-8 m. A

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

$2.1\times 10^{-12} c$

Explanation:

We are given that

Surface area of membrane= $5.3\times 10^{-9} m^2$

Thickness of membrane= $1.1\times 10^{-8} m$

Assume that membrane behave like a parallel plate capacitor.

Dielectric constant=5.9

Potential difference between surfaces=85.9 mV

We have to find the charge resides on the outer surface of membrane.

Capacitance between parallel plate capacitor is given by

$C=\frac{k\epsilon_0 A}{d}$

Substitute the values then we get

Capacitance between parallel plate capacitor= $\frac{5.9\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 5.3\times 10^{-9}}{1.1\times 10^{-8}}$

$C=0.25\times 10^{-12}F$

V= $85.9 mV=85.9\times 10^{-3}$

$Q=CV$

$Q=0.25\times 10^{-12}\times 85.9\times 10^{3}=2.1\times 10^{-12} c$

Hence, the charge resides on the outer surface= $2.1\times 10^{-12} c$

A 90-kilogram physics student would weigh 2970 Newtons on the surface of planet X. What is the magnitude of the acceleration due

KiRa [710]

<u>Weight = (mass) x (acceleration of gravity)</u>

Divide each side by (mass),and we have

Acceleration of gravity = (weight) / (mass)

Acceleration of gravity = 2,970/90 = 33 newtons per kilogram = <em>33 m/s²</em>

Two 51 g blocks are held 30 cm above a table. As shown in the figure, one of them is just touching a 30-long spring. The blocks

vivado [14]

The concept of this question can be well understood by listing out the parameters given.

The mass of the block = 51 g = 51 × 10⁻³ kg
The distance of the block from the table = 30 cm
Length of the spring = 30 cm

The purpose is to determine the spring constant.

Let us assume that the two blocks are Block A and Block B.

At point A on block A, the initial velocity on the block is zero

i.e. u = 0

We want to determine the time it requires for Block A to reach the table. The can be achieved by using the second equation of motion which can be expressed by using the formula.

$\mathsf{S = ut + \dfrac{1}{2}gt^2}$

From the above formula,

The distance (S) = 30 cm; we need to convert the unit to meter (m).

Since 1 cm = 0.01 m
Then, 30cm = 0.3 m

The acceleration (g) due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

∴

inputting the values into the equation above, we have;

$\mathsf{0.3 = (0)t + \dfrac{1}{2}*(9.80)*(t^2)}$

$\mathsf{0.3 = \dfrac{1}{2}*(9.80)*(t^2)}$

$\mathsf{0.3 =4.9*(t^2)}$

By dividing both sides by 4.9, we have:

$\mathsf{t^2 = \dfrac{0.3}{4.9}}$

$\mathsf{t^2 = 0.0612}$

$\mathsf{t = \sqrt{0.0612}}$

$\mathsf{t =0.247 \ seconds}$

However, block B comes to an instantaneous rest on point C. This is achieved by the dropping of the block on the spring. During this process, the spring is compressed and it bounces back to oscillate in that manner. The required time needed to get to this point C is half the period, this will eventually lead to the bouncing back of the block with another half of the period, thereby completing a movement of one period.

By applying the equation of the time period of a simple harmonic motion.

$\mathsf{T = 2 \pi \sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}}$
