The normal force applied by the rod on tbe metal ball is the force balancing the force due to gravity.

The normal force is the force that keeps any object from going through another object and that is why tables and floors can keep things up.

A fuel pump sends gasoline from a car's fuel tank to the engine at a rate of 5.64 10-2 kg/s. the density of the gasoline is 735
Irina18 [472]
Given:
Gasoline pumping rate, R = 5.64 x 10⁻² kg/s
Density of gasoline, D = 735 kg/m³
Radius of fuel line, r = 3.43 x 10⁻³ m

Calculate the cross sectional area of the fuel line.
A = πr² = π(3.43 x 10⁻³ m)² = 3.6961 x 10⁻⁵ m²

Let v =  speed of pumping the gasoline, m/s
Then the mass flow rate is 
M = AvD = (3.6961 x 10⁻⁵ m²)*(v m/s)*(735 kg/m³) = 0.027166v kg/s

The gasoline pumping rate is given as 5.64 x 10⁻² kg/s, therefore
0.027166v = 0.0564
v = 2.076 m/s

Answer:  2.076 m/s
The gasoline moves through the fuel line at 2.076 m/s.

A 14n force is applied for 0.33 seconds, calculate the impulse
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

4.62 N-s

Explanation:

recall that the formula for impulse is given by

Impulse = Force x change in time

in our case, we are given

Force = 14 N

change in time = 0.33s

Simply substituting the above into the equation for impulse, we get

Impulse = Force x change in time

Impulse = 14 x 0.33

= 4.62 N-s

What is the angle of the 2nd order bright fringe produced by two slits that are 8.25x10-5m apart if the wavelength of the incide
dexar [7]

In order to calculate the angle, we can use the formula below for a constructive interference (the interference is constructive because the fringe is bright):

d\sin\theta=m\lambda

Where d is the distance between the slits, m is the order of the interference and lambda is the wavelength.

So, using d = 8.25 * 10^-5, m = 2 and lambda = 4.5 * 10^-7, we have:

\begin{gathered} 8.25\cdot10^{-5}\cdot\sin\theta=2\cdot4.5\cdot10^{-7}\\ \\ \sin\theta=\frac{9\cdot10^{-7}}{8.25\cdot10^{-5}}\\ \\ \sin\theta=1.091\cdot10^{-2}\\ \\ \theta=0.625° \end{gathered}

Therefore the correct option is the second one.
