Answer:

(a) 4400.83 N

(b) 1051.7 N

(c) 3349.13 N

Explanation:

V = 1.4 ft^3 = 0.0396 m^3

density of lead = 11.34 x 10^3 kg/m^3

density of aluminium = 2710 kg/m^3

(a) When lead is used

Weight = mass x gravity = volume x density x gravity

            = 0.0396 x 11.34 x 1000 x 9.8 = 4400.83 N

(b) when aluminium is used

Weight = mass x gravity = volume x density x gravity

           = 0.0396 x 2710 x 9.8 = 1051.7 N

(c) Difference in weight = 4400.83 - 1051.7 = 3349.13 N

Contact [7]

Answer:

I should be active for 15 hours to meet the physical activity requirement.

Explanation:

Since time dilates in moving objects, we use the formula t = t₀/√(1 - β²) where t = time in space vehicle, t₀ = time on earth = 9 hours and β = v/c where v = speed of space vehicle = 0.8c.

So, t = t₀/√(1 - β²)

t = 9/√(1 - (v/c)²)

= 9/√(1 - (0.8c/c)²)

= 9/√(1 - (0.8)²)

= 9/√(1 - (0.64)

= 9/√0.36

= 9/0.6

= 15 hr

So, according to a timer on the space vehicle, I should be active for 15 hours to meet the physical activity requirement.

To calibrate your calorimeter cup, you first put 45 mL of cold water in the cup, and measure its temperature to be 24.7 °C. You

Answer : The heat change of the cold water in Joules is, 1.6\times 10^3J

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the mass of cold water.

As we know that the density of water is 1 g/mL. The volume of cold water is 45 mL.

Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}

Mass=Density\times Volume=1g/mL\times 45mL=45g

Now we have to calculate the heat change of cold water.

Formula used :

Q=m\times c\times (T_2-T_1)

where,

Q = heat change of cold water = ?

m = mass of cold water = 45 g

c = specific heat of water = 4.184J/g^oC

T_1 = initial temperature of cold water = 24.7^oC

T_2 = final temperature  = 33.4^oC

Now put all the given value in the above formula, we get:

Q=45g\times 4.184J/g^oC\times (33.4-24.7)^oC

Q=1638.036J=1.6\times 10^3J

Therefore, the heat change of cold water is 1.6\times 10^3J

If the phase angle for a block–spring system in SHM is ϕ and the block's position is given by x = xm cos(ωt + ϕ), what is the ra
matrenka [14]

<h2>K.E/P.E = m/k  tan²φ x ω²</h2>

Explanation:

The given position of block x = x₀ cos(ωt + φ)

The velocity of block  v = dx/dt = - x₀ sin(ωt + φ) x ω

The kinetic energy = 1/2 mv² = 1/2 m x₀² sin²(ωt + φ) x ω²

The potential energy of spring = 1/2 k x² , where k is the spring constant

Thus P.E = 1/2 x k x x₀² cos²(ωt + φ)

When t = 0

K.E = 1/2 m x₀²sin²φ x ω²

P.E = 1/2 k x₀² cos²φ

Dividing these , we have

K.E/P.E = m/k  tan²φ x ω²
