After driving a portion of the route, the taptap is fully loaded with a total of 27 people including the driver, with an average

mass of 69kg per person. In addition, there are three 15-kg goats, five 3-kg chickens, and a total of 25 kg of bananas on their way to the market. Assume that the springs have somehow not yet compressed to their maximum amount. How much are the springs compressed?

We will define the Total mass to calculate the force, so our values are: $M_p = 69*27=1823Kg\\M_g=15*3=45Kg\\M_c=3*5=15Kg\\M_B=25Kg$

Total Mass $= 1863+45+15+25=1948Kg$

The Weight is,

$F=mg=1948*98=19090.4N$

Through the hook's Law we calculate X.

$F_s=Kx$ , where x is the lenght of compression and K the Spring constant.

We don't have a K-Spring, but we can assume a random value (or simply let the equation in function of K)

$X = \frac{F_s}{x} \\X = \frac{1909.4}{k}$

I assume a value of $K=4*10^4N/m$

$X= \frac{1909.4}{4*10^4} = 0.48m$

A 4.40-m-long, 500 kg steel uniform beam extends horizontally from the point where it has been bolted to the framework of a new

icang [17]

Answer:

Torque=13798.4 N.m

Explanation:

Given data

Mass of beam m₁=500 kg

Mass of the person m₂=70 kg

length of steel r₁=4.40m

center of gravity of the beam is at r₂=r₁/2 =4.40/2 = 2.20m

To find

Torque

Solution

Torque due to beam own weight

$T_{1}=m_{1}gr_{1}\\ T_{1}=500*2.2*9.8\\T_{1}=10780N.m$

Torque due to person

$T_{2}=m_{2}r_{2}g\\T_{2}=70*(4.40)*(9.8)\\T_{2}=3018.4 N.m$

Now for total torque

$T_{total}=T_{1}+T_{2}\\T_{total}=10780+3018.4\\T_{total}=13798.4N.m$

Calculate the de Broglie wavelength of (a) a mass of 1.0 g traveling at 1.0 m s−1 , (b) the same, traveling at 1.00 × 105 km s−1

lesantik [10]

Answer:

a) $\lambda=6.63\times10^{-31}m$

b) $\lambda=6.63\times10^{-39}m$

c) $\lambda=9.97\times10^{-11}m$

d) $\lambda=4.03\times10^{-36}$ m

e)λ=∞

Explanation:

De Broglie discovered that an electron or other mass particles can have a wavelength associated, and that wavelength (λ) is:

$\lambda=\frac{h}{P}=\frac{h}{mv}$

with h the Plank's constant ( $6.63\times10^{-34}\frac{m^{2}kg}{s}$ ) and P the momentum of the object that is mass (m) times velocity (v).

a) $\lambda=\frac{6.63\times10^{-34}}{(1.0\times10^{-3}kg*1.0)}$

$\lambda=6.63\times10^{-31}m$

b) $\lambda=\frac{6.63\times10^{-34}}{(1.0\times10^{-3}*(1.00\times10^{8}))}$

$\lambda=6.63\times10^{-39}m$

c) $\lambda=\frac{6.63\times10^{-34}}{(6.65\times10^{-27}*1000)}$

$\lambda=9.97\times10^{-11}m$

d) $\lambda=\frac{6.63\times10^{-34}}{(74*2.22)}$

$\lambda=4.03\times10^{-36}$ m

e) $\lambda=\frac{6.63\times10^{-34}}{(74*0)}$

λ=∞
