A small metal block with mass of 140 g sits on a horizontally rotating turntable. The turntable makes exactly 2 revolutions each

second. The disk is located 6 cm from the axis of ration of the turntable. Answer each of the following question:
a. What is the frictional force acting on the disk?
b. The disk will slide off the turntable If it is located at a radius larger than 11 cm from the axis of rotation. What is the coefficient of static friction?

Answer:

a) Frictional force acting on the disc = 1.326N

b) Coefficient of static friction = 1.77

Explanation:

mass of the metal block = 140 g = 0.14 kg

Frequency of the turn table = 2 Revs/sec

distance of the disc from the axis of the turn table, r = 6 cm = 0.06 m

a) Frictional force acting on the disc

F = ma

a = V²/r ; V = ωr;

a = ω²r²/r    ;   a = ω²r

F = mω²r

ω = 2πf = 2π * 2 = 4π

ω =  4π

F = 0.14 * (4π)² * 0.06

F = 1.326 N

b) Coefficient of static friction

F = μmg.............(1)

F = mω²r...........(2)

Equating (1) and (2)

μmg =  mω²r

μ = ω²r/g

r = 11 cm = 0.11 m

g = 9.8 m/s²

μ = ( 4π)²  *  0.11/9.8

μ = 1.77

Consider the following True/False statements:
Ainat [17]

Answer:

6) False

7) True

8) False

9) False

10) False

11) True

12) True

13) True

14) True

Explanation:

The spacing between two energy levels in an atom shows the energy difference between them. Clearly, B has a greater value of ∆E compared to A. This implies that the wavelength emitted by B is greater than A while B will emit fewer, more energetic photons.

When atoms jump from lower to higher energy levels, photons are absorbed. The kinetic energy of the incident photon determines the frequency, wavelength and colour of light emitted by the atom.

The energy level to which an atom is excited is determined by the kinetic energy of the incident electron. As the voltage increases, the kinetic energy of the electron increases, the further the atom is from the source of free electrons, the greater the required kinetic energy of free electron. When electrons are excited to higher energy levels, they must return to ground state.

Assume that the amplifiers on the stage operate at a combined power of 5,000 Watts, and that 80% of this is converted to sound.
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

0.04

Explanation:

Fraction of power converted to sound = 80% = 0.08

Fraction incident upon each eardrum onstage = 0.08/2 = 0.04

How long was a 60 W light bulb turned on if it used a total of 580 J of energy?
icang [17]
Here's the tool you need.  You can't answer the question without this:

           "1 watt"
means
           "1 joule of energy, generated, used, or moved, every second".

So      60 watts  =  60 joules per second

           Total energy generated,
            used, or moved                  = (power) x (time).

                                     580 joules  =  (60 watts) x (time)

Divide each side
by  (60 watts):              Time  =  (580 joules) / (60 joules/sec) 

                                               =  (9 and 2/3)  seconds  .
