THIS IS NOT THE EXACT ANSWER BUT IT MIGHT HELP
The cover slips serves two purposes: (1) it protects the microscope's objective lens from contacting the specimen, and (2) it creates an even thickness (in wet mounts) for viewing.

A positively charged objectwith a mass of 0.114 kg oscillates at the end of a spring, generating ELF (extremely low frequency) r
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

  • k = 167.33 N/m

Explanation:

  • The radio waves have a fixed relationship between the propagation speed (the speed of light in vacuum), the frequency and the wavelength, as follows:
  • v = c = λ*f

        where c= speed of light in vacuum = 3*10⁸ m/s, λ = wavelength =  

        4.92*10⁷ m.

        Solving for f, we get the frequency of the radio waves:

        f = 6.1 Hz

  • Now, from the Hooke's law, we know that the mass attached at the end of the spring oscillates with an angular frequency defined by  a fixed relationship between the spring constant k and the mass m, as follows:

       \omega_{o}^{2} =\frac{k}{m}  (1)

  • Now, we know that there exists a fixed relationship between the angular frequency and the frequency, as follows:

       \omega = 2*\pi *f (2)    

  • We also know that f in (2) is the same that we got for the radio waves, so replacing (2) in (1), and rearranging terms, we can solve for k, as follows:
  • k = 4*\pi ^{2}*f^{2} *m = 4*\pi ^{2} * (6.1Hz)^{2} * 0.114 kg = 167.33 N/m

A steel drill making 180 rpm is used to drill a hole in a block of steel. The mass of the steel block and the drill is 180 g. If
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

a) 37.8 W

b) 2 Nm

Explanation:

180 g = 0.18 kg

We can also convert 180 revolution per minute to standard angular velocity unit knowing that each revolution is 2π and 1 minute equals to 60 seconds

180 rpm = 180*2π/60 = 18.85 rad/s

We can use the heat specific equation to find the rate of heat exchange of the steel drill and block:

\dot{E} = mc\Delta \dot{t} = 0.18*420*0.5 = 37.8 J/s

Since the entire mechanical work is used up in producing heat, we can conclude that the rate of work is also 37.8 J/s, or 37.8 W

The torque T required to drill can be calculated using the work equation

E = T\theta

\dot{E} = T\dot{\theta} = T\omega

T = \frac{\dot{E}}{\omega} = \frac{37.8}{18.85} = 2 Nm

Andrew [12]
A force vector F1 points due east and has a magnitude of 200 Newtons, A second force F2 is added to F1. The resultant of the two vectors has a magnitude of 400 newtons and points along the due east/west line. Find the magnitude and direction of F2. Note that there are two answers. <span>The given values are
F1 = 200 N</span> F2 =? Total = 400 N

Solution: F1 + F2 = T 200 N + F2 = 400N
F2 = 400 - 200
F2 = 200 N
