A waitperson carrying a tray with a platter on it tips the tray at an angle of 12 degrees below the horizontal. If the gravitati

onal force on the platter is 5.0 N, what is the magnitude of the force parallel to the tray that tends to cause the platter to slide down the tray?

Answer:1.04 N

Explanation:

Given

Gravitational Force on the Platter is 5 N

Tray makes an angle of \theta =12^{\circ}

This gravitational Force has components along and Perpendicular to Platter

Perpendicular Force W_p=W\cos \theta

W_p=5\times \cos 12=4.89 N

Along the Tray

W_{along}=W\sin \theta

W_{along}=5\times \sin 12=1.04 N

Thus 1.04 N is the magnitude of force that will cause Platter to slide down

Amy needs 5.0 V for some integrated circuit experiments. She uses a 9.0 V battery and two resistors to make a voltage divider. O
just olya [345]

Answer:

The value of smaller resistor is 248 Ω.

Explanation:

Voltage divider circuit is used to convert a higher voltage to a smaller voltage with the help of resistors which are connected in parallel.

As shown in the circuit, Vs is the source voltage, R₁ and R₂ are the two resistors and V₀ is the output voltage.

Applying KVL in the circuit, the output voltage is given by :

V_{0} = \frac{V_{s}R_{2}  }{R_{1} +  R_{2}  }

According to the problem, R₂ = 310Ω , V₀ = 5 V and Vs = 9 V. Substitute these values in the above equation.

5 = \frac{9\times310  }{R_{1} +  310  }

R_{1}+310 = \frac{9\times310}{5}

R_{1} = 558 - 310

R₁ = 248Ω

4) A racing car undergoing constant acceleration covers 140 m in 3.6 s. (a) If it’s moving at 53 m/s at the end of this interval
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer

given,

distance = 140 m

time, t = 3.6 s

moving speed = 53 m/s

a) distance = (average velocity) x time

    D = \dfrac{v_0 + v_1}{2}\times t

    140 = \dfrac{v_0 + 53}{2}\times 3.6

       v₀ + 53 = 77.78

        v₀ = 24.78 m/s or 25 m/s

b) a = \dfrac{v-u}{t}

   a = \dfrac{53-25}{3.6}

         a = 7.8 m/s²

using equation of motion

  v₀² = v₁² + 2 a s

  53² = 0²+ 2 x 7.8 x s

  s = 180 m

A single point charge q is located at the center of both an imaginary cube and an imaginary sphere. How does the electric flux t
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Electric flux is defined as the flow of electric field intensity through a given surface.

Mathematically:

\phi=E.A.cos\ \theta

where:

E = electric field

A = area

θ = angle between the area vector and the electric field

Electric flux through the surface of a sphere will be uniform throughout the surface area due to a charge at the center of the sphere. The distance of the surface from the center is always at a constant distance of radius of the sphere.

Electric flux through the surface of a cube will be varying as the surface area is at a varying distance from the center of the cube. The distance of the surface from the center is not at a uniform distance from the center of the cube and so the projection of solid angle changes.

Why does the output of a microphone increase as the frequency of the sound waves which it receives increases
Sloan [31]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

The frequency of sound waves received by the microphone influences the output or pitch of the sound obtained from the microphone.

The higher the frequency of the sound received by the microphone, the higher the output of the microphone and vice versa. This is because, the higher the frequency of sound, the higher the oscillations produced and the greater the output of the microphone.

The rise and fall in the pitch of sound waves as the frequency of sound waves varies is called inflection.
