Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

8.9 m NorthEast

Explanation:

a² + b² = c²

8² + 4² = c²

64 + 16 = c²

80 = c²

c = √80

c ≈ 8.9 m NorthEast

disa [49]
The bending of light rays is the result of refraction of light passing through the lens. A converging lens is curved on both sides such that the rays coming out of it come together at a point (converge). The point at which the right rays meet after refraction is called the focal point which is a real in the convex lens.

Say you want to make a sling by swinging a mass M of 2.3 kg in a horizontal circle of radius 0.034 m, using a string of length 0
ycow [4]

Answer:

T = 764.41 N

Explanation:

In this case the tension of the string is determined by the centripetal force. The formula to calculate the centripetal force is given by:

F_c=m\frac{v^2}{r}  (1)

m: mass object = 2.3 kg

r: radius of the circular orbit = 0.034 m

v: tangential speed of the object

However, it is necessary to calculate the velocity v first. To find v you use the formula for the kinetic energy:

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

You have the value of the kinetic energy (13.0 J), then, you replace the values of K and m, and solve for v^2:

v^2=\frac{2K}{m}=\frac{2(13.0J)}{2.3kg}=11.3\frac{m^2}{s^2}

you replace this value of v in the equation (1). Also, you replace the values of r and m:

F_c=(2.3kg)(\frac{11.3m^2/s^2}{0.034})=764.41N

hence, the tension in the string must be T =  Fc = 764.41 N
