A heavy ball with a weight of 100 NN is hung from the ceiling of a lecture hall on a 4.4-mm-long rope. The ball is pulled to one

side and released to swing as a pendulum, reaching a speed of 5.7 m/sm/s as it passes through the lowest point

Answer:

175.3 N

Explanation:

The motion of the ball is a uniform circular motion, therefore the net force on it must be equal to the centripetal force.

There are two forces acting on the ball at the lowest point of motion:

- The tension in the string, T , upward

- The weight of the ball, mg, downward

The net force (centripetal force) has the same direction as the tension (upward, towards the centre of the circular path), so we can write:

T-mg=m\frac{v^2}{r}

where the term on the right is the expression for the centripetal force, and where:

T is the tension in the string

mg=100 N is the weight of the ball

m=\frac{mg}{g}=\frac{100}{9.8}=10.2 kg is the mass of the ball

v = 5.7 m/s is the speed of the ball at the lowest point

r = 4.4 m is the length of the rope, so the radius of the circle

Solving for T, we find the tension in the string:

T=mg+m\frac{v^2}{r}=(100)+(10.2)\frac{5.7^2}{4.4}=175.3 N

An uncharged capacitor is connected to a 21-V battery until it is fully charged, after which it is disconnected from the battery
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

The voltage bewtween the plates will be 9.5V

Explanation:

Facts:

The capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor having plate area A and plate separation d is C=ϵ0A/d.  

Where ϵ0 is the permittivity of free space.  

A capacitor filled with dielectric slab of dielectric constant K, will have a new capacitance C1=ϵ0kA/d

        C1=K(ϵ0A/d)

        C1=KC   ----------- 1

Where C is the capacitance with no dielectric and C1 is the capacitance with dielectric.

The new capacitance is k times the capacitance of the capacitor without dielectric slab.  

This implies that the charge storing capacity of a capacitor increases k times that of the capacitor without dielectric slab.

Given points

• The terminal voltage of the battery to which the capacitor is connected to charge V=25V

• A dielectric slab of paraffin of dielectric constant K=2  is inserted in the space between the capacitor plates after the fully charged capacitor is disconnected

The charge stored in the original capacitor Q=CV

The charge stored in the original capacitor after inserting dielectric Q1=C1V1

The law of conservation of energy states that the energy stored is constant:

i.e Charge stored in the original capacitor is same as charge stored after the dielectric is inserted.

Q   =  Q1

CV = C1V1

  CV = C1V1  -------2

We derived C1=KC from equation 1. Inserting this into equation 2

   CV = KCV1

 V1 = (CV)/KC

         V/K

       = 21/2.2

      = 9.5

What wavelength of light (in nm) is associated with a frequency of 8.01E15 Hz?
AlekseyPX

Answer: 37.5 nm

Explanation: speed of light c= 3.00·10^8 m/s.

I use same accuracy to speed of light as it's for frequency.

Frequency f= 8.01·10^15 1/s

Speed c = wavelength · frequency

Wavelength = c/f = 3.745·10^-8 m

3 In a television tube, an electron starting from rest experiences a force of 4.0 × 10−15 N over a distance of 50 cm. The final
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

The final speed of the electron = 2.095×10⁸ m/s

Explanation:

From newton's fundamental equation of dynamics,

F = ma ........................Equation 1

Where F = force, m = mass of the electron, a = acceleration of the electron.

making a the subject of the equation,

a = F/m.................... Equation 2

Given: F = 4.0×10⁻¹⁵ N,

Constant: m =  9.109×10⁻³¹ kg.

Substituting into equation 2

a = 4.0×10⁻¹⁵/9.109×10⁻³¹

a = 4.39×10¹⁶ m/s².

Using newton's equation of motion,

v² = u²+2as .......................... Equation 3

Where v = final velocity of the electron, u = initial velocity of the electron, a = acceleration of the electron, s = distance covered by the electron.

Given: u = 0 m/s(at rest), s = 50 cm = 0.5 m, a = 4.39×10¹⁶ m/s²

Substituting into equation 3

v² = 0² + 2(0.5)(4.39×10¹⁶)

v = √(4.39×10¹⁶)

v = 2.095×10⁸ m/s

Thus the final speed of the electron = 2.095×10⁸ m/s

What is the density of 18.0-karat gold that is a mixture of 18 parts gold, 5 parts silver, and 1 part copper? (These values are
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

Density of 18.0-karat gold mixture is 15.58 g/cm^3.

Explanation:

A mixture of 18 parts gold, 5 parts silver, and 1 part copper.

Let mass of gold be 18x

Let the mass of silver be 5x

Let the mass of copper be 1x

The density of gold = 19.32g/cm^3

The density of silver = 10.1g/cm^3

The density of copper =8.8g/cm^3

Volume=\frac{Mass}{Density}

Volume of the gold in the mixture = V_1=\frac{18x}{19.32 g/cm^3}

Volume of the silver in the mixture = V_2=\frac{5x}{10.1 g/cm^3}

Volume of the copper in the mixture = V_3=\frac{1x}{8.8 g/cm^3}

Mass of the mixture = M = 18x+5x+1x =24x

Volume of the mixture = V_1+V_2+V_3

Density of the mixture:

\frac{M}{V_1+V_2+V_3}=15.58 g/cm^3

Distance is the length of a path followed by a particle. The displacement of a particle is defined as its change in position in
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

a. True

Explanation:

Distance is described with only magnitude. It is defined as the total path covered by an object, in other words it  is the length of a path followed by a particle.

Displacement is described with both magnitude and direction. It is distance traveled in a specified direction or  change in position in some time interval.

Therefore, the correct option is " a. True"
