A 1000-kg barge is being towed by means of two horizontal cables. one cable is pulling with a force of 80.0 n in a direction 30.

0° west of north. the second cable pulls in a direction 20.0° east of north. what should the magnitude of its pulling force be so that the barge will accelerate northward?

To obtain an acceleration northward is necessary than the west component of the first cable and the east component of the second cable be equal, otherwise the barge will head northwest or northeast.  
So for the first cable the component to west is:
 Fw = F1 * cos (30Âş) = 80*cos(30Âş)  
 And for the second cable the component to east is:
 Fe = F2 * cos (20Âş) = F2*cos(20Âş) 
 Then to get a movement northward we need than Fw = Fe, so:
 80*cos(30Âş) = F2*cos(20Âş)
 F2 = 80*cos(30Âş)/cos(20Âş) 
 F2 = 73.73 N  So the magnitude of the east cable should be 73.73 Newtons

A 40.0 turn coil of wire of radius 3.0 cm is placed between the poles of an electromagnet. The field increases from 0 to 0.75 T
nadezda [96]

Answer:

Induced emf, V=3.76\times 10^{-4}\ V

Explanation:

We have,

Number of turns in the coil, N = 40

Radius of coil, r = 3 cm = 0.03 m

The field increases from 0 to 0.75 T at a constant rate in a time interval of 225 s.

It is required to find the magnitude of the induced emf in the coil if the field is perpendicular to the plane of the coil. The induced emf is given by :

\epsilon=\dfrac{d\phi}{dt}

\phi=NBA\cos\theta, is magnetic flux

\epsilon=NA\dfrac{dB}{dt}\\\\\epsilon=\dfrac{40\times \pi (0.03)^2\times (0.75-0)}{225}\\\\\epsilon=3.76\times 10^{-4}\ V

So, the magnitude of induced emf is 3.76\times 10^{-4}\ V.

2. Is the original mixture homogeneous or heterogeneous? Why? .
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

There is no chemical combination of the substances in a mixture, so they retain their physical properties. There is the same composition throughout a homogeneous mixture. The structure of a heterogeneous mixture differs.

A stone is thrown vertically upward with a speed of 15.5 m/s from the edge of a cliff 75.0 m high .
rjkz [21]

a) 2.64 s

We can solve this part of the problem by using the following SUVAT equation:

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

s is the displacement of the stone

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

a is the acceleration

We must be careful to the signs of s, u and a. Taking upward as positive direction, we have:

- s (displacement) negative, since it is downward: so s = -75.0 m

- u (initial velocity) positive, since it is upward: +15.5 m/s

- a (acceleration) negative, since it is downward: so a= g = -9.8 m/s^2 (acceleration of gravity)

Substituting into the equation,

-75.0 = 15.5 t -4.9t^2\\4.9t^2-15.5t-75.0 = 0

Solving the equation, we have two solutions: t = -5.80 s and t = 2.84 s. Since the negative solution has no physical meaning, the stone reaches the bottom of the cliff 2.64 s later.

b) 10.4 m/s

The speed of the stone when it reaches the bottom of the cliff can be calculated by using the equation:

v=u+at

where again, we must be careful to the signs of the various quantities:

- u (initial velocity) positive, since it is upward: +15.5 m/s

- a (acceleration) negative, since it is downward: so a = g = -9.8 m/s^2

Substituting t = 2.64 s, we find the final velocity of the stone:

v = 15.5 +(-9.8)(2.64)=-10.4 m/s

where the negative sign means that the velocity is downward: so the speed is 10.4 m/s.

c) 4.11 s

In this case, we can use again the equation:

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

s is the displacement of the package

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

a is the acceleration

We have:

s = -105 m (vertical displacement of the package, downward so negative)

u = +5.40 m/s (initial velocity of the package, which is the same as the helicopter, upward so positive)

a = g = -9.8 m/s^2

Substituting into the equation,

-105 = 5.40 t -4.9t^2\\4.9t^2 -5.40 t-105=0

Which gives two solutions: t = -5.21 s and t = 4.11 s. Again, we discard the first solution since it is negative, so the package reaches the ground after

t = 4.11 seconds.

Calculate the heat gained by 100 grams of ice at -20°C in order to become water at 50°C. ( C = .5 for ice and C = 1 for water, Q
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

6008 cal

Explanation:

m_{i} = mass of ice = 100 g = 0.1 kg

c_{i}  = specific heat of ice = 0.5 cal/(kg°C)

c_{w}  = specific heat of water = 1 cal/(kg°C)

L  = Latent heat of fusion of ice = 80 J/g

T_{i}  = initial temperature of ice = - 20 °C

T_{f}  = final temperature of ice = 50 °C

Q = Heat gained

Heat gained is given as

Q = m_{i} c_{i}(0 - (T_{i}))+ m_{i}L + m_{i}c_{w}(T_{i} - 0)

Q = (100) (0.5) (0 - (- 20))+ (0.1)(80) + (100) (1)(50 - 0)

Q = 6008 cal
