Answer:

a)W= 1 J

b)W= 1 J

c)W= 0 J

Explanation:

Given that

m = 5 kg

Coefficient of kinetic friction,K=0.5

d= 10 cm

We know that if velocity is constant it means that the acceleration of the system is zero.Or we can say that all forces are balance in the system.

We know that work is the dot product of force and displacement

W= F.d

The friction force on the box

Fr= K m g

Fr= 0.5 x 5 x 10 = 25 N                      ( take g =10 m/s²)

Fr=25 N

a)

Acceleration a= 0

So horizontal force F = Fr

W = Fr.d

W=10 x 0.1 J

W= 1 J

b)

The work done by friction force

W= 1 J

c)

The net force on the system is zero because acceleration is zero.

F= 0

So

W= 0 J

A 3.00 x 10^2-W electric immersion heater is
andre [41]

Answer

t = 367.77 s = 6.13 min

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy:

Heat\ Supplied\ By \ Heater = Heat\ Absorbed\ by\ Glass + Heat\ Absorbed\ by\ Water\\Pt = m_gC_g\Delta T_g + m_wC_w\Delta T_w\\

where,

P = Electric Power of Heater =  300 W

t = time required = ?

m_g = mass of glass = 300 g = 0.3 kg

m_w = mass of water = 250 g = 0.25 kg

C_g = speicific heat of glass = 840 J/kg.°C

C_w =  specific heatof water = 4184 J/kg.°C

ΔT_g = ΔT_w = Change in Temperature of Glass and water = 100°C - 15°C

ΔT_g = ΔT_w = 85°C

Therefore,

(300\ W)(t) = (0.3\ kg)(840\ J/kg.^oC)(85^oC)+(0.25\ kg)(4184\ J/kg.^oC)(85^oC)\\

<u>t = 367.77 s = 6.13 min</u>

A uniform horizontal beam 4.0 m long and weighing 200 N is attached to the wall by a pin connection that allows the beam to rota
wariber [46]

Answer:

The magnitude of the tension in the cable, T is 1,064.315 N

Explanation:

Here we have

Length of beam = 4.0 m

Weight = 200 N

Center of mass of uniform beam = mid-span = 2.0 m

Point of attachment of cable = Beam end = 4.0 m

Angle of cable = 53° with the horizontal

Tension in cable = T

Point at which person stands = 1.50 m from wall

Weight of person = 350 N

Therefore,

Taking moment about the wall, we have

∑Clockwise moments = ∑Anticlockwise moments

T×sin(53) = 350×1.5 + 200×2

T = 850/sin(53)  = ‭1,064.315 N.

Silver has a work function of 4.5 eV . Part A What is the longest wavelength of light that will release an electron from a silve
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

λ = 2.7608 x 10⁻⁷ m = 276.08 nm

Explanation:

The work function of a metallic surface is the minimum amount of photon energy required to release the photo-electrons from the surface of metal. The work function is given by the following formula:

Work Function = hc/λ

where,

Work Function = (4.5 eV)(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J/1 eV) = 7.2 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

h = Plank's Constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

λ = longest wavelength capable of releasing electron.

Therefore,

7.2 x 10⁻¹⁹ J = (6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)/λ

λ = (6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(7.2 x 10⁻¹⁹ J)

<u>λ = 2.7608 x 10⁻⁷ m = 276.08 nm</u>
