-- The string is 1 m long.  That's the radius of the circle that the mass is
traveling in.  The circumference of the circle is  (π) x (2R) = 2π meters .

-- The speed of the mass is (2π meters) / (0.25 sec) = 8π m/s .

-- Centripetal acceleration is  V²/R = (8π m/s)² / (1 m) = 64π^2 m/s²

-- Force = (mass) x (acceleration) = (1kg) x (64π^2 m/s²) =

                                                         64π^2 kg-m/s² = 64π^2 N = about <span>631.7 N .

</span>
That's it.  It takes roughly a 142-pound pull on the string to keep
1 kilogram revolving at a 1-meter radius 4 times a second !<span>

If you eased up on the string, the kilogram could keep revolving
in the same circle, but not as fast.

You also need to be very careful with this experiment, and use a string
that can hold up to a couple hundred pounds of tension without snapping. 
If you've got that thing spinning at 4 times per second and the string breaks,
you've suddenly got a wild kilogram flying away from the circle in a straight
line, at 8π meters per second ... about 56 miles per hour !  This could definitely
be hazardous to the health of anybody who's been watching you and wondering
what you're doing.

Two concentric current loops lie in the same plane. The smaller loop has a radius of 3.8 cm and a current of 12 A . The bigger l
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

R_2=6.33cm

Explanation:

The equation for the magnetic field at the center of a circular loop is:

B=\frac{\mu_0I}{2R}

If we name the smaller loop as 1 and the bigger loop as 2 and we impose the same magnitude of the magnetic field at their center, we have:

B_2=B_1

\frac{\mu_0I_2}{2R_2}=\frac{\mu_0I_1}{2R_1}

\frac{I_2}{R_2}=\frac{I_1}{R_1}

R_2=\frac{I_2}{I_1}R_1

Which for our values means:

R_2=\frac{I_2}{I_1}R_1=\frac{(20A)}{(12A)}(3.8cm)=6.33cm

(Notice that we don't need to convert cm to m, we get our result in cm).

Why is it better to wear a white shirt on a hot summer day instead of a black shirt?
Ronch [10]
When all that body heat hits the white clothing covering it, it gets reflected right back towards the body. ... The best color to keep cool in the heat, it turns out, is to wear black. Black absorbs everything coming in from the sun, sure. But black also absorbs energy from the body instead of reflecting it back.

A 45.0 g hard-boiled egg moves on the end of a spring with force constant 25.0 N/m. Its initial displacement 0.500 m. A damping
leva [86]

Answer:

0.02896 kg/s

Explanation:

A_1 = Initial displacement = 0.5 m

A21 = Final displacement = 0.1 m

t = Time taken = 0.5 s

m = Mass of object = 45 g

Displacement is given by

x=Ae^{-\dfrac{b}{2m}t}cos(\omega t+\phi)

At maximum displacement

cos(\omega t+\phi)=1

\\\Rightarrow A_2=A_1e^{-\dfrac{b}{2m}t}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{A_1}{A_2}=e^{\dfrac{b}{2m}t}\\\Rightarrow ln\dfrac{A_1}{A_2}=\dfrac{b}{2m}t\\\Rightarrow b=\dfrac{2m}{t}\times ln\dfrac{A_1}{A_2}\\\Rightarrow b=\dfrac{2\times 0.045}{5}\times ln\dfrac{0.5}{0.1}\\\Rightarrow b=0.02896\ kg/s

The magnitude of the damping coefficient is 0.02896 kg/s
