Answer:

a) F_b = 6.62 N

b) F_net = 5.583 N

Explanation:

Given:

- Conditions of He gas:  T = 0 C , P = 1 atm , ρ = 0.179 kg/m^3

- The mass of balloon m = 0.012 kg

- The radius of balloon r = 0.5 m

Find:

a)What is the magnitude of the buoyant force acting on the balloon?

b)What is the magnitude of the net force acting on the balloon?

Solution:

- The buoyant force F_b acting on the balloon is equal to the weight of the air it displaces.The mass of the displaced air ρ*V is the volume of the balloon times the density of the. Multiplying that by acceleration due to gravity gives its weight.

                                 F_b = ρ*V*g

                                 F_b = 4*ρ*g*pi*r^3 / 3

                                 F_b = 4*1.29*9.81*pi*.5^3 / 3

                                 F_b = 6.62 N

- The net force will be the difference between the balloon’s weight and the buoyant force. The weight of the balloon is the density of the helium times the volume of the balloon added to the mass of the empty balloon.

                                 F_g = ρ*V*g + m*g

                                 F_g = 4*ρ*g*pi*r^3 / 3 + 0.012*9.81

                                 F_g = 4*0.179*9.81*pi*.5^3 / 3 + 0.012*9.81

                                 F_g = 1.037 N

- The net force is the difference between weight and buoyant force

                                F_net = F_g - F_b

                                F_net = 6.62 - 1.037

                                F_net = 5.583 N

On both the spring and fall equinoxes, the sun's rays are vertically overhead at the _______
Anni [7]

It is overhead at the equator, it is because the sun ray’s will be moving vertically as this will be directed at the equator. It is because if it moves vertically, it will hit or overhead the equator and this usually happens in spring and fall.

A child is sliding down a slide at the playgound. is mechanicalenergy conserved
Flauer [41]

No. Mechanical energy is not conserved.  There's quite a bit of friction on the slide.  So some of the potential energy is lost to heat on the way down, and the child arrives at the bottom with hot pants and less kinetic energy than you might expect.

A physicist's right eye is presbyopic (i.e., farsighted). This eye can see clearly only beyond a distance of 97 cm, which makes
Ivan

Answer:

f = 19,877 cm   and  P = 5D

Explanation:

This is a lens focal length exercise, which must be solved with the optical constructor equation

        1 / f = 1 / p + 1 / q

where f is the focal length, p is the distance to the object and q is the distance to the image.

In this case the object is placed p = 25 cm from the eye, to be able to see it clearly the image must be at q = 97 cm from the eye

let's calculate

        1 / f = 1/97 + 1/25

        1 / f = 0.05

        f = 19,877 cm

the power of a lens is defined by the inverse of the focal length in meters

         P = 1 / f

         P = 1 / 19,877 10-2

         P = 5D

kirza4 [7]

At t =0, the velocity of A is greater than the velocity of B.

We are told in the question that the spacecrafts fly parallel to each other and that for the both  spacecrafts, the velocities are described as follows;

A: vA (t) = ť^2 – 5t + 20

B: vB (t) = t^2+ 3t + 10

Given that t = 0 in both cases;

vA (0) = 0^2 – 5(0) + 20

vA = 20 m/s

For vB

vB (0) = 0^2+ 3(0) + 10

vB = 10 m/s

We can see that at t =0, the velocity of A is greater than the velocity of B.

Read each question carefully. Show all your work for each part of the question. The parts within the question may not have equal weight. Spacecrafts A and B are flying parallel to each other through space and are next to each other at time t= 0. For the interval 0 <t< 6 s, spacecraft A's velocity v A and spacecraft B's velocity vB as functions of t are given by the equations va (t) = ť^2 – 5t + 20 and VB (t) = t^2+ 3t + 10, respectively, where both velocities are in units of meters per second. At t = 6 s, the spacecrafts both turn off their engines and travel at a constant speed. (a) At t = 0, is the speed of spacecraft A greater than, less than, or equal to the speed of spacecraft B?
