Briefly summarize how the pulleys worked with respect to changes in effort force and effort distance compared with resistance fo
professor190 [17]
It helps applying force in any direction. Pulley systems rely on the relationship between the load and the effort. It also increase the lifting distance. Useful for getting the drive action to happen in awkward places. The  bigger the mechanical advantage the lesser amount of force is needed to be exerted.

In 2017, the company SpaceX became the first private company to send supplies to the International Space Station with a reusable
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

Approximately 3.98\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}.

Assumption: air resistance on the rocket is negligible. Take g = \rm 9.81\; m \cdot s^{-2}.

Explanation:

By Newton's Second Law of Motion, the acceleration of the rocket is proportional to the net force on it.

\displaystyle \text{Acceleration} = \frac{\text{Net Force}}{\text{Mass}}.

Note that in this case, the uppercase letter \rm M in the units stands for "mega-", which is the same as 10^6 times the unit that follows. For example, \rm 1\; Mg = 10^6\; g, while \rm 1\; MN = 10^6\; N.

Convert the mass of the rocket and the thrust of its engines to SI standard units:

  • The standard unit for mass is kilograms: \displaystyle m = \rm 552\; Mg = 552 \times 10^6\; g \times \frac{1\; \rm kg}{10^3\; g}  = 552 \times 10^3 \; kg.
  • The standard for forces (including thrust) is Newtons: \text{Thrust} = \rm 7.61 \; MN = 7.61 \times 10^6\; N.

At launch, the velocity of the rocket would be pretty low. Hence, compared to thrust and weight, the air resistance on the rocket would be pretty negligible. The two main forces that contribute to the net force of the rocket would be:

  • Thrust (which is supposed to go upwards), and
  • Weight (downwards due to gravity.)

The thrust on the rocket is already known to be \rm 7.61 \times 10^6\; N. Since the rocket is quite close to the ground, the gravitational acceleration on it should be approximately 9.81\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2} = 9.81 \; N \cdot kg^{-1}. Hence, the weight on the rocket would be approximately 9.81\; \rm N \cdot kg^{-1} \times 552 \times 10^3\; kg = 5.41412\times 10^6\; N.

The magnitude of the net force on the rocket would be

\begin{aligned}&\text{Thrust} - \text{Weight} \\ &= 7.61 \times 10^6\; \rm N - 5.41412\times 10^6\; N \\ &\approx 2.19 \times 10^6\; \rm N\end{aligned}.

Apply the formula \displaystyle \text{Acceleration} = \frac{\text{Net Force}}{\text{Mass}} to find the net force on the rocket. To make sure that the output (acceleration) is in SI units (meters-per-second,) make sure that the inputs (net force and mass) are also in SI units (Newtons for net force and kilograms for mass.)

\begin{aligned}\displaystyle &\text{Acceleration} \\ &= \frac{\text{Net Force}}{\text{Mass}} \\ &= \frac{2.19 \times 10^6\; \rm N}{552 \times 10^3\; \rm kg}  \\ &\approx \rm 3.98\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}\end{aligned}.

If the separation between the openings in the double slit is increased, what happens to the distance between the fringes on the
Pavlova-9 [17]

Width of the fringes gets decreased if the distance between the slits is increased and thus we get narrower fringes.

What is Young's double-slit experiment?

  • In modern physics, the double-slit experiment is a demonstration that light and matter can display characteristics of both classically defined waves and particles; moreover, it displays the fundamentally probabilistic nature of quantum mechanical phenomena.
  • This type of experiment was first performed, using light, by Thomas Young in 1802, as a demonstration of the wave behavior of light.
  • A wave is split into two separate waves (the wave is typically made of many photons and better referred to as a wave front (not to be confused with the wave properties of the individual photon)) that later combine into a single wave.
  • Changes in the path-lengths of both waves result in a phase shift, creating an interference pattern.
  • A coherent light source, such as a laser beam, illuminates a plate pierced by two parallel slits, and the light passing through the slits is observed on a screen behind the plate.
  • The wave nature of light causes the light waves passing through the two slits to interfere, producing bright and dark bands on the screen – a result that would not be expected if light consisted of classical particles. However, the light is always found to be absorbed at the screen at discrete points, as individual particles (not waves); the interference pattern appears via the varying density of these particle hits on the screen.
  • Furthermore, versions of the experiment that include detectors at the slits find that each detected photon passes through one slit (as would a classical particle), and not through both slits (as would a wave).
  • However, such experiments demonstrate that particles do not form the interference pattern if one detects which slit they pass through. These results demonstrate the principle of wave-particle duality.

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

3: I can´t see the text/image, but it depend on the mass and the force applied to the ball, if both are too high, it will be harder to make a home run. (Second law)

4:It would be easier to make a home run because there is no interruption between the ball and the space the same travels. (Third law)
