A disk of radius R = 11 cm is pulled along a frictionless surface with a force of F = 16 N by a string wrapped around the edge.A

t the instant when d = 30 cm of string has unwound off the disk, what is the torque exerted about the center of the disk?

Answer: 1.76 Nm

Explanation:

If the force pulls horizontally, this means that the force is tangent to the disk at any point of the string unwinding process, so the distance d is irrelevant.

In this case, the torque is directly given by the product of the force times the distance perpendicular to the center of the disk, which is just the radius, as follows:

τ = F * r = 16 N. (0.11) m = 1.76 Nm

A 0.01 kg bullet is fired at a 0.5 kg block initially at rest. The bullet, moving with an initial speed of 400 m/s, emerges from
kondor19780726 [428]

Use the law of conservation of momentum to solve this problem. We have a system of two bodies (bullet and block). Initially, only the bullet has a non-zero momentum. After the collision, both have some momentum and we know the part for the bullet, so it is simple to isolate the part for the block. Call v_t0 the initial bullet speed, v_t1 new bullet speed, v_k speed of block. (similarly for masses):

m_t\cdot v_{t0}=m_t\cdot v_{t1} + m_k\cdot v_k\implies\\v_k=\frac{m_t\cdot v_{t0}-m_t\cdot v_{t1}}{m_k}=\frac{0.01kg\cdot(400-300)m/s}{0.5kg}=2\frac{m}{s}

The block will move with a speed of 2 m/s in the direction of the bullet.

Answer:

Speed. I am speed.

Explanation:

The FitnessGram Pacer Test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continues. The 20 meter pacer test will begin in 30 seconds. Line up at the start. The running speed starts slowly, but gets faster each minute after you hear this signal. A single lap should be completed each time you hear this sound. Remember to run in a straight line, and run as long as possible.

Hydrogen bombs and stars both produce energy with nuclear _____.
Kruka [31]

Answer;

- Nuclear fusion

Explanation;

-Hydrogen bombs and stars both produce energy with the nuclear fusion. On other side, the Sun and other stars make heat and light by nuclear reactions.

-The first stage of a hydrogen bomb involves a fission explosion which in turn leads to a nuclear fusion. The extreme heat and pressure from the initial atomic blast force together deuterium and tritium (two light gases made of hydrogen). When they are forced together, some of the hydrogen atoms fuse to one another, creating helium.

-This process of fusion releases even more energy per unit of mass than fission does, and the energy released from the fusion reaction also feeds back into the fission reaction, increasing its output.

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

The image distance is 17.56 cm

Explanation:

We have,

Height of light bulb is 3 cm.

The light bulb is placed at a distance of 50 cm. It means object distance is, u =-50 cm

Focal length of the lens, f = +13 cm

Let v is distance between image and the lens. Using lens formula :

\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{u}\\\\\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}+\dfrac{1}{u}\\\\\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{13}+\dfrac{1}{(-50)}\\\\v=17.56\ cm

So, the image distance is 17.56 cm.
