Answer:

0.33 s

Explanation:

For this case, as the object is hung on the end of an unstretched spring, we can consider this system as a simple pendulum.

For this system, we can determine the period of the motion using the following formula:

T = 2π√(L/g)

Where: T = period (in sec), L = lenght of the spring, g = acceleration of garvity = 9.8 m/s²

By the exact time the object is 2.75 cm before coming to rest, that will be the lenght of the spring we can consider (2.75 cm = 0.0275 m)

Finally:

T = 2π√(0.00275/9.8)

T = 0.33 sec

An irregular object of mass 3 kg rotates about an axis, about which it has a radius of gyration of 0.2 m, with an angular accele
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

The magnitude of the applied torque is 6.0\times10^{-2}\ N-m

(e) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of object = 3 kg

Radius of gyration = 0.2 m

Angular acceleration = 0.5 rad/s²

We need to calculate the applied torque

Using formula of torque

\tau=I\times\alpha

Here, I = mk²

\tau=mk^2\times\alpha

Put the value into the formula

\tau=3\times(0.2)^2\times0.5

\tau=0.06\ N-m

\tau=6.0\times10^{-2}\ N-m

Hence, The magnitude of the applied torque is 6.0\times10^{-2}\ N-m

If a 80kg diver jumps off of a 5 m high dive into a regulation diving pool, how much should the temperature of the pool go up?
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

The answer cannot be determined.

Explanation:

The energy of the diver when he hits the pool will be equal to its potential energy mgh, and for the temperature of the pool to rise up, this energy has to be converted into the heat energy of the pool.

The change in temperature {\Delta}T then will be

{\Delta}T=\frac{{\Delta}Q}{mc} .

Where m is the mass of water in the pool, c is the specific heat capacity of water, and {\Delta}Q is the added heat which in this case is the energy of the diver.

Since we do not know the mass of the water in the pool, we cannot make this calculation.

A plastic rod 1.3 m long is rubbed all over with wool, and acquires a charge of -3e-08 coulombs. we choose the center of the rod
Anestetic [448]
(a) The plastic rod has a length of L=1.3m. If we divide by 8, we get the length of each piece:
L/8=1.3m/8=0.1625 m

(b) The center of the rod is located at x=0. This means we have 4 pieces of the rod on the negative side of x-axis, and 4 pieces on the positive side. So, starting from x=0 and going towards positive direction, we have: piece 5, piece 6, piece 7 and piece 8. Each piece is 0.1625 m long. Therefore, the center of piece 5 is at 0.1625m/2=0.0812 m. And the center of piece 6 will be shifted by 0.1625m with respect to this:
c_6 = 0.0812m+0.1625m=0.2437 m

(c) The total charge is Q=-3 \cdot 10^{-8}C. To get the charge on each piece, we should divide this value by 8, the number of pieces:
Q/8=-3\cdot 10^{-8}C/8=-3.75\cdot 10^{-9}C

(d) We have to calculate the electric field at x=0.7 generated by piece 6. The charge on piece 6 is the value calculated at point (c):
q= -3.75\cdot 10^{-9}C
If we approximate piece 6 as a single  charge, the electric field is given by
E=k_e  \frac{q}{d^2}
where k_e=8.99\cdot 10^9Nm^2C^{-2} and d is the distance between the charge (center of piece 6, located at 0.2437m) and point a (located at x=0.7m). Therefore we have
E= 8.99\cdot 10^9 Nm^2C^{-2} \frac{-3.75\cdot 10^9 C}{(0.2437m-0.7m)^2} =-161.9 V/m
poiting towards the center of piece 6, since the charge is negative.

Wood has chemical energy, which can be used to generate thermal and radiant energy when burned in a fireplace. Which best explai
Marianna [84]

Answer:In the case of burning wood, stored potential energy (in the form of chemical energy) in the log is released due to heating by other excited atoms. This chemical reaction is called combustion and requires oxygen. Combustion changes the potential chemical energy into kinetic energy in the form of heat.
