A 15-lb block B starts from rest and slides on the 25-lb wedge A, which is supported by a horizontal surface. Neglecting frictio

n, determine (a) the velocity of B relative to A after it has slid 3 ft down the inclined surface of the wedge, (b) the corresponding velocity of A.

The angle of the wedge is 30°.

Answer:

5.88 ft/s

Explanation:

a) The block will slide down due to it's weight.

initial velocity u= 0

final velocity, v

acceleration, a = g sin 30° = 32 ft/s²× sin 30° = 16 ft/s²

Sliding displacement, s = 3ft

Use third equation of motion:

v^2-u^2 = 2as

substitute the values and solve for v

v^2-0 = 2\times 16 \times 3 =96 ft^2/s^2\\v = 9.8 ft/s

b) Use conservation of momentum:

Initial momentum of the system  = 0

final momentum = (15) ( 9.8)+ (25)(v')

v' = 5.88 ft/s

A proton is moving in a circular orbit of radius 12 cm in a uniform 0.31-T magnetic field perpendicular to the velocity of the p
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Explanation:

A proton of charge

q=+1.609×10^-19C

Orbit a radius of 12cm

r=0.12m

Magnetic Field of 0.31T

Angle between velocity and field is 90°

a. Because the magnetic force F supplies the centripetal force Fc.

The magnitude of the magnetic force F on a charge q moving at a speed v in a magnetic field of strength B is given by

F = qvB sin θ

And the centripetal force is given as

Fc=mv²/r

Where m is mass of proton

m=1.673×10^-27kg

Then, F=Fc

qvB sin θ=mv²/r

qBSin90=mv/r

rqB=mv

Then, v=rqB/m

v=0.12×1.609×10^-19×0.31/1.673×10^-23

v=3577692.78m/s

v=3.58×10^6m/s

b. Since,

F=qVBSin90

F=1.609×10^-19×3.58×10^6×0.31

F=1.785×10^-13 N.

2. What biotic and abiotic factors might influence the wolf and moose population numbers? List 1 biotic factors 1 abiotic factor
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Abiotic - sun Biotic- Plants

Water supply, climate, shape of the land, vegetation, soils and availability of natural resources.

Explanation:

Abiotic means non living so the sun is non living. The sun gives us warmth and the ability to survive

Biotic means alive or living- plants are living and give off oxygen and take in carbon to help us live  umm ok

is dimensionally correct relation necessarily to be a correct physical relation? explain with example.​
Andreas93 [3]

Answer: hope it helps you...❤❤❤❤

Explanation: If your values have dimensions like time, length, temperature, etc, then if the dimensions are not the same then the values are not the same. So a “dimensionally wrong equation” is always false and cannot represent a correct physical relation.

No, not necessarily.

For instance, Newton’s 2nd law is  F=p˙ , or the sum of the applied forces on a body is equal to its time rate of change of its momentum. This is dimensionally correct, and a correct physical relation. It’s fine.

But take a look at this (incorrect) equation for the force of gravity:

F=−G(m+M)Mm√|r|3r  

It has all the nice properties you’d expect: It’s dimensionally correct (assuming the standard traditional value for  G ), it’s attractive, it’s symmetric in the masses, it’s inverse-square, etc. But it doesn’t correspond to a real, physical force.

It’s a counter-example to the claim that a dimensionally correct equation is necessarily a correct physical relation.

A simpler counter example is  1=2 . It is stating the equality of two dimensionless numbers. It is trivially dimensionally correct. But it is false.
