An advertisement for a certain portable vacuum cleaner shows off its power with a photograph of the vacuum-cleaner wand suspendi

ng a bowling ball by the strength of its suction. The vacuum cleaner can maintain a moderate vacuum inside the apparatus at an absolute pressure of 3.53×104 Pa (against an outside atmospheric pressure of 1.01×105 Pa) when the intake wand is closed. The wand is a hollow metal cylinder with an inside diameter of 3.19 cm. What is the weight of the heaviest ball the vacuum cleaner can lift?

Answer:

         W = 52.5 N

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use Newton's law and equilibrium

        F₁ - F₂ - W = 0

Where the force F₁ is the external force applied by the air, the force F₂ is the internal force by the pressure in the vacuum and W is the weight of the ball

The pressure is given by

         P = F / A

         F = P A

        A = π r²

        r = d / 2

        F = P π r²

Let's apply these equations to our case

      F₁ = P_atm π r²

      F₂ = P_ vacuum π r²

We substitute in the equilibrium equation

         P_atm π r² - P_vacuum π r² - W = 0

         W = (P_atm - P_vacuum) π r²

       

Let's calculate

         r = 3.19 / 2 = 1,595 cm

         r = 1,595 10⁻² m

         W = (1.01 10⁵ -3.53 10⁴) pi (1,595 10⁻²)²

         W = 0.657 10⁵  7.992 10⁻⁴

         W = 52.5 N

A 52.0-kg person, running horizontally with a velocity of +3.63 m/s, jumps onto a 15.2-kg sled that is initially at rest. (a) Ig
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

The coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled and the snow is 0.0134

Explanation:

Given that:

M = mass of person = 52 kg

m = mass of sled = 15.2 kg

U = initial velocity of person = 3.63 m/s

u = initial velocity of sled = 0 m/s

After collision, the person and the sled would move with the same velocity V.

a) According to law of momentum conservation:

Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision

MU + mu = (M + m)V

V=\frac{MU+mu}{M+m}

Substituting values:

V=\frac{MU+mu}{M+m}=\frac{52(3.63)+15.2(0)}{52+15.2} =2.81m/s

The velocity of the sled and person as they move away is 2.81 m/s

b) acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

d = 30 m

Using the formula:

V^2=2\mu(gd)\\\mu=\frac{V^2}{2gd} \\\mu=\frac{2.81^2}{2*9.8*30} =0.0134

The coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled and the snow is 0.0134

____ would describe an airplane as "Earthen metal infused with Air and propelled by elemental Fire"
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

Aristotle

Explanation:

Aristotle  would describe an airplane as "Earthen metal infused with Air and propelled by elemental Fire".

Their presence spread in to the Renaissance from the Antiquity and Early medieval Ages, and was not consistently displaced until the Inquisition and philosophies such as classical physics.Aristotle's views on biblical theory were influenced by physical science. Many of the zoological findings of Aristotle found in his physiology, such as on the octopus ' hectocotyl (reproductive) head, remained incredible until the 19th century.
