A 40 kg box has a surface area of 0.2 m2, determine its pressure.

Physics
1 answer:
vesna_86 [32]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

P = 1960 Pa

Explanation:

The pressure is computed as the force acting upon a surface divided by the area of the surface

P=\frac{F}{A}

The box has 40 kg, it presses on its own surface when placed over a table or any flat area. The acting force is its weight.

F = W = m.g = 40 kg \ 9.8m/sec^2 = 392 N

The pressure is:

P=\frac{392N}{0.2m^2}=1960 \ Pa

A race car has a mass of 710 kg. It starts from rest and travels 40 m in 3.0 s. The car is uniformly accelerated during the enti
Archy [21]

The net force applied to it is 6311.9 N.

To calculate the net force to the car, first, we need to find the acceleration using the equation of motion.

Force: This as be defined as the product of mass and acceleration of a body. The S.I unit of force is Newton (N)

⇒ Formula

  • S = ut+at²/2................. Equation 1

⇒ Where:

  • u = Initial velocity
  • S = Distance
  • t = Time
  • a = acceleration

From the question,

 ⇒Given:

  • S = 40 m
  • t = 3.0 s
  • u = 0 m/s (at rest)

⇒ Substitute these values into equation 1

  • 40 = 0(3)+a(3²)/2

⇒ Solve for a

  • 9a = 80
  • a = 80/9
  • a = 8.89 m/s²

⇒ To get the force, we use the formula below

  • F = ma    .................... Equation 2

⇒ Where:

  • F = Force applied
  • m = mass of the car

⇒ Given:

  • m = 710 kg
  • a = 8.89 m/s²

⇒ Substitute these values into equation 2

  • F = 710(8.89)
  • F = 6311.9 N

Hence the net force applied to it is 6311.9 N.

poizon [28]

Answer:

By calculation, it can be shown that;

K = \frac{F_{angular}}{2\times x\times c}

Whereby for constant K, as  {F_{angular}} increases,  x also increases.

Explanation:

The experiment set up consisted of the use of a spring force to maintain the object in  circular path.

The energy in the spring is given by

\frac{1}{2}\cdot k\cdot x^2.

Rotational kinetic energy = \frac{1}{2}·I·ω²

Inertia,  I =  \frac{1}{2}·m·r²

ω = \frac{v}{r}

Substituting gives

Rotational kinetic energy =  \frac{1}{2}·

=  \frac{1}{4}·m· v²

Equating both equations gives

K = \frac{2\times m\times v^2}{4\times x^{2} }  = \frac{1\times m\times v^2}{2\times x^{2} }  

Within the proportionality limit, x ∝ r

therefore we can write x = c·r which gives

\frac{ m\times v^2}{2\times x\times c\times r } = \frac{v^{2} }{r} \times\frac{m}{2\times x\times c}

Since \frac{v^{2} }{r} = angular acceleration, α, then

m× \frac{v^{2} }{r} = Angular force

Therefore K = \frac{F_{angular}}{2\times x\times c}

Therefore as Force, F increases, x also increases and the size of a spring force should be proportional to the amount of stretch in the spring.

It takes 52,000 Joules to heat a cup of coffee to boiling from room temperature. How long a piece of 20 cm wide Aluminum foil wo
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

L = 1.11 x 10^{6} m, is the length of piece of 20 cm wide Aluminum foil to make capacitor large enough to hold 52000 J of energy.

Explanation:

Solution:

Data Given:

Heat Energy = 52000 J

Dielectric Constant of the plastic Bag = 3.7 = K

Thickness = 2.6 x 10^{5} m =d

V = 610 volts

A = width x Length

width = 20 cm = 20 x 10^{-2} m

Length = ?

So,

we know that,

U = 1/2 C Δv^{2}

U = 52000 J

C = ?

V = 610 volts'

So,

U = 1/2 C Δv^{2}  

52000 J = (0.5) x (C) x (610^{2})

C = 0.28 F

And we also know that,

C = \frac{K*E*A}{d}

E = 8.85 x 10 ^{-12}

K = 3.7

A = 0.20 x L

d = 2.6 x 10^{5} m

Plugging in the values into the formula, we get:

0.28 = \frac{3.7 * 8.85 .10^{-12} * (0.20 . L) }{2.6 . 10^{5} }

Solving for L, we get:

L = 1.11 x 10^{6} m,

is the length of piece of 20 cm wide Aluminum foil to make capacitor large enough to hold 52000 J of energy.
