A metal disk of radius 4.0 cm is mounted on a frictionless axle. Current can flow through the axle out along the disk, to a slid

ing contact on the rim of the disk. A uniform magnetic field B= 1.25 T is parallel to the axle of the disk. When the current is 5.5 A, the disk rotates with constant angular velocity. What's the frictional force at the rim between the stationary electrical contact and t?

Answer:

Friction force is 0.1375 N

Solution:

As per the question:

Radius of the metal disc, R = 4.0 cm = 0.04 m

Magnetic field, B = 1.25 T

Current, I = 5.5 A

Force on a current carrying conductor in a magnetic field is given by considering it on a differential element:

dF = IB\times dR

Integrating the above eqn:

\int dF = IB\int_{0}^{R}dr

\tau = IB\times \frac{R^{2}}{2} = \frac{1}{2}IBR^{2}          (1)

Now the torque is given by:

\tau = F\times R                        (2)

From eqn (1) and (2):

F\times R = \frac{1}{2}IBR^{2}

Thus the Frictional force is given by:

F = \frac{1}{2}\times 5.5\times 1.25\times 0.04 = 0.1375\ N

The third floor of a house is 8m above street level. How much work is needed to move a 136kg refrigerator to the third floor?
jonny [76]

m = Mass of the refrigerator to be moved to third floor = 136 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity by earth on the refrigerator being moved = 9.8 m/s²

h = Height to which the refrigerator is moved  = 8 m

W = Work done in lifting the object

Work done in lifting the object is same as the gravitational potential energy gained by the refrigerator. hence

Work done = Gravitation potential energy of refrigerator

W = m g h

inserting the values

W = (136) (9.8) (8)

W = 10662.4 J

Weigt A box sitting still on the ground by itself has a weight of 700N, what is the mass? (gravity's acceleration is 9.80 m/s2)​
Alex
  • Force=700N
  • Acceleration=9.8m/s^2

Using newtons law

\\ \rm\longmapsto F=ma

\\ \rm\longmapsto m=\dfrac{F}{a}

\\ \rm\longmapsto m=\dfrac{700}{9.8}

\\ \rm\longmapsto m=71.4kg

Space-shuttle astronauts experience accelerations of about 35 m/s2 during takeoff. What force does a 75 kg astronaut experience
amm1812

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 2625 N</h3>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 75 × 35

We have the final answer as

<h3>2625 N</h3>

Hope this helps you
