Two masses are joined by a massless string. A 30-N force applied vertically to the upper mass gives the system a constant [Ans :

490 N] [Ans : 1.3 × 10−23 m] [Ans : 19 cm] [Ans : 1.96 ms−2 ] [Ans : 680 m] upward acceleration of 3.2 m/ s 2 . If the string tension is 18 N, what are the two masses?

Answer:

12/13 kg, 18/13 kg

Explanation:

Let the masses are m and m'.

acceleration, a = 3.2 m/s^2

Force, F = 30 N

Tension, T = 18 N

By the diagram, using Newton's second law

F - T - m'g = m' a .... (1)

T - mg = ma ..... (2)

Substitute the values of F, T and a in equation (1) and equation (2)

30 - 18 = m' (9.8 + 3.2)

12 = 13 m'

m' = 12/ 13 kg

And, 18 = m (9.8 + 3.2)

m = 18/13 kg

Which of the following frequencies falls in the range of RF waves used by commercial radio broadcasting stations?
erma4kov [3.2K]

A).  600,000 Hz  or  600 KHz
Yes.  Commercial broadcasters operate here.
This is the '600' on your AM radio dial.

B).  60 Hz
No.  In principle, this frequency might be used for communication or
commercial broadcasting, but it suffers from two inconvenient truths:
-- An efficient antenna for 60 Hz ... either transmitting or receiving ...
needs to be almost 780 miles long.
-- This is the frequency of the electric power utility in the US and
Canada, so every outlet, wire, cable, lamp cord, and electric line
on a pole RADIATES a little bit of signal at this frequency.  That's
an awful lot of interference.

C).  6,000,000 Hz  or  6 MHz
There's a lot of broadcasting activity here, but it's not commercial
music, news, and sports into local homes and cars. 
It's foreign short-wave broadcast, bringing news, propaganda, and
culture from one country to another.  Pretty interesting to browse.

D).  6,000 Hz  or  6 KHz.
No.  Not used for communication, for an interesting reason:
This frequency is smack in the middle of the human hearing range.
So if it were used for communication ... with high-power transmitters
here and there ... then you wouldn't hear it in the air.  But wherever
wires were being used to carry sound ... your stereo's speaker wires,
wires from your player to your ear-buds, wires to the telephones in
your house etc ... the wires would act as antennas, picking up 
broadcasts at 6 KHz, and the broadcasts would get into everything.
Not a smart plan.

Which of the following describes the charge of an atom before any electrons are transferred?
gregori [183]

The answer is neutral charge. An atom element will always and has to be stable, in order for this state to happen. The charge of an electron has to be neutral. For atom with neutral charge, the proton will always equal the number of electron.

If the kinetic and potential energy in a system are equal, then the potential energy increases. What happens as a resul
Kobotan [32]

-- If the system is 'closed', then nothing ... including energy ... can get in or out, and the total energy inside has to be constant.

If half of the energy in the system starts out as potential energy and the rest starts out as kinetic, and then the potential energy increases, there's only one place the increase could have come from ... it could only have been converted from kinetic energy.  So the <em>kinetic energy</em> in the system <em>must</em> <em>decrease</em>.

In fact, this isn't even a "result".  The kinetic energy has to decrease <em><u>before</u></em> the potential energy can increase, because that's where the increase has to come from.

If the system is 'open', then energy can come in and go out.  If the potential energy inside suddenly increases, we don't know where it came from, so we can't say anything about what happens to the system.
