Answer:

  • tension: 19.3 N
  • acceleration: 3.36 m/s^2

Explanation:

<u>Given</u>

  mass A = 2.0 kg

  mass B = 3.0 kg

  θ = 40°

<u>Find</u>

  The tension in the string

  The acceleration of the masses

<u>Solution</u>

Mass A is being pulled down the inclined plane by a force due to gravity of ...

  F = mg·sin(θ) = (2 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(0.642788) = 12.5986 N

Mass B is being pulled downward by gravity with a force of ...

  F = mg = (3 kg)(9.8 m/s^2) = 29.4 N

The tension in the string, T, is such that the net force on each mass results in the same acceleration:

  F/m = a = F/m

  (T -12.59806 N)/(2 kg) = (29.4 N -T) N/(3 kg)

  T = (2(29.4) +3(12.5986))/5 = 19.3192 N

__

Then the acceleration of B is ...

  a = F/m = (29.4 -19.3192) N/(3 kg) = 3.36027 m/s^2

The string tension is about 19.3 N; the acceleration of the masses is about 3.36 m/s^2.

kati45 [8]

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of sled, m = 22 kg

Force of pull, F = 31 N

distance move, d = 53 m

Angle between force and distance, θ = 40°

The formula for the work done is

W = F x d x Cos θ

W = 31 x 53 x cos 40

W = 1258.6 J

A 1 kg mass is attached to a spring with spring constant 7 Nt/m. What is the frequency of the simple harmonic motion? What is th
Scorpion4ik [409]

1. 0.42 Hz

The frequency of a simple harmonic motion for a spring is given by:

f=\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

where

k = 7 N/m is the spring constant

m = 1 kg is the mass attached to the spring

Substituting these numbers into the formula, we find

f=\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{7 N/m}{1 kg}}=0.42 Hz

2. 2.38 s

The period of the harmonic motion is equal to the reciprocal of the frequency:

T=\frac{1}{f}

where f = 0.42 Hz is the frequency. Substituting into the formula, we find

T=\frac{1}{0.42 Hz}=2.38 s

3. 0.4 m

The amplitude in a simple harmonic motion corresponds to the maximum displacement of the mass-spring system. In this case, the mass is initially displaced by 0.4 m: this means that during its oscillation later, the displacement cannot be larger than this value (otherwise energy conservation would be violated). Therefore, this represents the maximum displacement of the mass-spring system, so it corresponds to the amplitude.

4. 0.19 m

We can solve this part of the problem by using the law of conservation of energy. In fact:

- When the mass is released from equilibrium position, the compression/stretching of the spring is zero: x=0, so the elastic potential energy is zero, and all the mechanical energy of the system is just equal to the kinetic energy of the mass:

E=K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where m = 1 kg and v = 0.5 m/s is the initial velocity of the mass

- When the spring reaches the maximum compression/stretching (x=A=amplitude), the velocity of the system is zero, so the kinetic energy is zero, and all the mechanical energy is just elastic potential energy:

E=U=\frac{1}{2}kA^2

Since the total energy must be conserved, we have:

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{1}{2}kA^2\\A=\sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}v=\sqrt{\frac{1 kg}{7 N/m}}(0.5 m/s)=0.19 m

5. Amplitude of the motion: 0.44 m

We can use again the law of conservation of energy.

- E_i = \frac{1}{2}kx_0^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2 is the initial mechanical energy of the system, with x_0=0.4 m being the initial displacement of the mass and v_0=0.5 m/s being the initial velocity

- E_f = \frac{1}{2}kA^2 is the mechanical energy of the system when x=A (maximum displacement)

Equalizing the two expressions, we can solve to find A, the amplitude:

\frac{1}{2}kx_0^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2=\frac{1}{2}kA^2\\A=\sqrt{x_0^2+\frac{m}{k}v_0^2}=\sqrt{(0.4 m)^2+\frac{1 kg}{7 N/m}(0.5 m/s)^2}=0.44 m

6. Maximum velocity: 1.17 m/s

We can use again the law of conservation of energy.

- E_i = \frac{1}{2}kx_0^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2 is the initial mechanical energy of the system, with x_0=0.4 m being the initial displacement of the mass and v_0=0.5 m/s being the initial velocity

- E_f = \frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2 is the mechanical energy of the system when x=0, which is when the system has maximum velocity, v_{max}

Equalizing the two expressions, we can solve to find v_{max}, the maximum velocity:

\frac{1}{2}kx_0^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2=\frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2\\v_{max}=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}x_0^2+v_0^2}=\sqrt{\frac{7 N/m}{1 kg}(0.4 m)^2+(0.5 m/s)^2}=1.17 m/s m

How many neutrons is there in that element that has 36 protons and 36 electrons
bagirrra123 [75]
You need to know the mass number to work it out. I can see you have it but it's not visible on your photo.

Every proton weighs 1 and every neutron weighs 1 so if you know the total mass of the nucleus and the number of protons, then you can do:
Mass Number - Proton Number = Neutron Number
because the rest of the mass (that isn't from the protons) must come from the neutrons. Make sense?

Find A and effective resistance.<br> (Ill give Brainliest if you provide explaination)
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

A = 2.4 A

R_{eq}  = 5 \ \Omega

Explanation:

The voltage in the circuit, V = 12 V

The given circuit shows four resistors with R₁ and R₂ arranged in series with both in parallel to R₃ and R₄ which are is series to each other

R₁ = 4 Ω

R₂ = 6 Ω

R₄ = 5 Ω

The voltage across R₃ = 6 V

Voltage across parallel resistors are equal, therefore;

The total voltage across R₃ and R₄ = 12 V

The total voltage across R₁ and R₂ = 12 V

The voltage across R₃ + The voltage across R₄ = 12 V

∴ The voltage across R₄ = 12 V - 6 V = 6 V

The current flowing through  R₄ = 6V/(5 Ω) = 1.2 A

The current flowing through R₃ = The current flowing through R₄ = 1.2 A

The resistor, R₃ = 6 V/1.2 A = 5 Ω

Therefore, we have;

The sum of resistors in series are R₁ + R₂ and R₃ + R₄, which gives;

R_{series \, 1} = R₁ + R₂ = 4 Ω + 6 Ω = 10 Ω

R_{series \, 2} = R₃ + R₄ = 5 Ω + 5 Ω = 10 Ω

The sum of the resistors in parallel is given as follows;

\dfrac{1}{R_{eq}}  = \dfrac{1}{R_{series \, 1}} + \dfrac{1}{R_{series \, 2}} = \dfrac{R_{series \, 2} + R_{series \, 1}}{R_{series \, 1} \times R_{series \, 2}}

Therefore;

R_{eq} =  \dfrac{R_{series \, 1} \times  R_{series \, 2}}{R_{series \, 1} + R_{series \, 2}}

Therefore;

R_{eq} =  \dfrac{10\times  10}{10 + 10} \ \Omega = 5 \ \Omega

R_{eq}  = 5 \ \Omega

The value of the current, <em>A</em>, in the circuit, I = V/R_{eq}

A = I = 12 V/(5 Ω) = 2.4 A

A = 2.4 A
