Two bicyclist, originally separated by a distance of 20 miles, are each traveling at a uniform speed of 10 miles per hour toward
Radda [10]

Answer:

D = 25 miles

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we just need to know how much time it took both bicyclists to collide and that will be the same amount of time that the bee flew at 25miles per hour. With those values we could calculate the distance it traveled.

Since both bicyclists collide, we know that Xa=Xb, so:

Xa = V*t = 10*t     and    Xb = 20 - V*t = 20 - 10*t

10*t = 20 - 10*t      Solving for t:

t = 1 hour  Now we can calculate the distance for the bee:

D = Vbee * t = 25 * 1 = 25 miles

The two masses in the Atwood's machine shown in the figure are initially at rest at the same height. After they are released, th
Inga [223]

According to the description given in the photo, the attached figure represents the problem graphically for the Atwood machine.

To solve this problem we must apply the concept related to the conservation of energy theorem.

PART A ) For energy conservation the initial kinetic and potential energy will be the same as the final kinetic and potential energy, so

E_i = E_f

0 = \frac{1}{2} (m_1+m_2)v_f^2-m_2gh+m_1gh

v_f = \sqrt{2gh(\frac{m_2-m_1}{m_1+m_2})}

PART B) Replacing the values given as,

h= 1.7m\\m_1 = 3.5kg\\m_2 = 4.3kg \\g = 9.8m/s^2 \\

v_f = \sqrt{2gh(\frac{m_2-m_1}{m_1+m_2})}

v_f = \sqrt{2(9.8)(1.7)(\frac{4.3-3.5}{3.5+4.3})}

v_f = 1.8486m/s

Therefore the speed of the masses would be 1.8486m/s

Two polarizing sheets have their transmission axes crossed so that no light is transmitted. A third sheet is inserted so that it
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

a)    I= I₀ (cos²θ - cos⁴θ)    b) 75.5º

Explanation:

a) For this exercise we must use Malus's law

         I = I₀ cos² θ

where tea is the angle between the two polarizers.

We apply this expression to our case

* Polarizer 1 suppose that it is vertical and polarizer 2 (intermediate) is at an angle θ with respect to the vertical

         I₁ = I₀ cos² θ

* We analyze for the polarity 2 and the last polarizer 3 which indicate that it must be at 90º from the first one, therefore it must be horizontal.

The angle of polarizers 2 and 3 is θ' measured from the horizontal, if we measure with respect to the vertical

              θ₂ = 90- θ’ = θ

fiate that in the exercise we must take a reference system and measure everything with respect to this system.

          I = I₁ cos² θ'

       

we substitute

         I = (I₀ cos² tea) cos² (θ - 90)

        cos (θ -90) = cos θ cos 90 + sin θ sin 90 = sin θ

         I = Io cos² θ sin² θ

        1= cos²θ+ sin²θ

       sin²θ = 1 - cos²θ

        I= I₀ (cos²θ - cos⁴θ)

b) to find when the intensity is maximum,

we can use that we have an extreme point when the drift is zero

          \frac{dI}{d \theta} = 0

          \frac{dI}{d \theta}= Io (2 cos θ - 4 cos³θ) = 0

whereby

            cos θ - 2 cos³ θ = 0

            cos θ ( 1 - 2 cos² θ) = 0  

The zeros of this function are in

           θ = 90º

           1-2cos²θ =0       cos θ = 0.25  θ =  75.5º

Let's analyze this two results for the angle of 90º the intnesidd is zero with respect to the first polarizer, so it is not an acceptable solution.

Consequently, the angle that allows the maximum intensity to pass is 75.5º

One horsepower (hp) is the amount of power required to lift a 75-kg mass a vertical distance of 1 m in 1 s. What is 2 hp equival
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

1470 W

Explanation:

Power: This can be defined as the rate at which work is done or energy is used up. The S.I unit of power is Watt (W).

The expression for power is given as,

P = Energy/time

P = mgh/t ...................... Equation 1

Where P = power, m = mass, h = height, t = time, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Given: m = 75 kg, g =9.8 m/s², h = 1 m, t = 1 s.

Substitute into equation 1

P = (75×1×9.8)/1

P = 735 W.

From the above,

1 hp = 735 W

2 hp = (2×735) W

2 hp = 1470 W.

Hence 2 hp = 1470 W
