After a long night of cramming for a test, your college room-mate hits his head forcefully against the wall of your room in desp

air. According to Newton’s 3rd Law, as he exerts a force against the wall, there must be an equal and opposite force. How does that opposite force show itself in this case?

Answer: the wall contracts the force exerted by his head. The wall produces the opposite force which is equal to the force his head bangs the wall with.

Explanation: if his head exerts a much greater force than the wall can counteract the wall will be destroyed, if the wall exerts a much greater force than his head exerts he will be pushed far back and might even suffer a broken head.

The wall in this case provides the opposite reactive force.

A skier starts from rest at the top of a hill that is inclined 10.5° with respect to the horizontal. The hillside is 200 m long,
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

d) 289.31 m

Explanation:

Energy provided by potential energy = mgh = m x 9.8x 200 sin10.5 = 357.18m

Energy used by friction = μmgcos 10.5 x 200 = .075 x m x 9.8 x cos 10.5 x200 = 144.54 m .

Energy used by friction on plain surface = μmg x d.( dis distance covered on plain ) =.075x m x 9.8 xd = .735 m d

To equate

357.18 m -144.54 m = .735 m d

d = 289.31 m .

g An electron enters a region of space containing a uniform 1.63 × 10 − 5 T magnetic field. Its speed is 121 m/s and it enters p
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

i. The radius 'r' of the electron's path is 4.23 × 10^{-5} m.

ii. The frequency 'f' of the motion is 455.44 KHz.

Explanation:

The radius 'r' of the electron's path is called a gyroradius. Gyroradius is the radius of the circular motion of a charged particle in the presence of a uniform magnetic field.

                 r = \frac{mv}{qB}

Where: B is the strength magnetic field, q is the charge, v is its velocity and m is the mass of the particle.

From the question, B = 1.63 × 10^{-5}T, v = 121 m/s, Θ = 90^{0} (since it enters perpendicularly to the field), q = e  = 1.6 × 10^{-19}C and m = 9.11 × 10^{-31}Kg.

Thus,

         r = \frac{mv}{qB} ÷ sinΘ

But,  sinΘ =  sin 90^{0} = 1.

So that;

          r = \frac{mv}{qB}

            = (9.11 × 10^{-31} × 121) ÷ (1.6 × 10^{-19}  × 1.63 × 10^{-5})

            = 1.10231 × 10^{-28}   ÷ 2.608 × 10^{-24}

            = 4.2266 × 10^{-5}

            = 4.23 × 10^{-5} m

The radius 'r' of the electron's path is 4.23 × 10^{-5} m.

B. The frequency 'f' of the motion is called cyclotron frequency;

           f = \frac{qB}{2\pi m}

             =  (1.6 × 10^{-19}  × 1.63 × 10^{-5}) ÷ (2 ×\frac{22}{7} × 9.11 × 10^{-31})

             =  2.608 × 10^{-24} ÷  5.7263 × 10^{-30}

             = 455442.4323

          f  = 455.44 KHz

The frequency 'f' of the motion is 455.44 KHz.

suter [353]

Answer:

actual efficiency is  47.78 %

Carnot efficiency  is 67.65 %

power output is 5.20 × 10^3 hp

Explanation:

given data

temperature = 1900°C = 1900+ 273 K = 2173 K

exhaust temperature = 430°C = 430 + 273 K = 703 K

fuel = 7.0 × 10^9 cal

work = 1.4 × 10^10 J

to find out

actual efficiency  and Carnot efficiency and power output of engine

solution

first we find actual efficiency that is = work / heat input

put the value and

input energy  = 7.0 × 10^9 cal  (4.184 J/1 cal)  = 29.29 × 10^9 J

actual efficiency  =  1.4 × 10^10 / ( 29.29 × 10^9 )

actual efficiency  =  0.4778

actual efficiency is  47.78 %

and

Carnot efficiency  is = 1 - ( 703 / 2173 )

so Carnot efficiency  is  = 0.67648

Carnot efficiency  is 67.65 %

and

power output  = work / time

power output  =  1.4 × 10^10 / 3600 sec

power output = 3.88 × 10^6 W

power output = 3.88 × 10^6 W / 746 hp

so power output is 5.20 × 10^3 hp
