m = mass held by mr. Z above his head = 200 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

F = force applied by mr. Z to hold the mass

Using equilibrium of force , force equation is given as

F = mg

F = (200) (9.8)

F = 1960 N

Since the mass is not moved,

d = displacement of the mass = 0 m

we know that , work done is given as

W = F d

inserting the values

W = (1960) (0)

W = 0 J

Consider an old-fashion bicycle with a small wheel of radius 0.17 m and a large wheel of radius 0.92 m. Suppose the rider starts

Gala2k [10]

Answer:

10259.6 m

Explanation:

We are given that

Radius of small wheel,r=0.17 m

Radius of large wheel,r'=0.92 m

Initial velocity,u=0

Time,t=2.7 minutes=162 s

1 min=60 s

Velocity,v=10m/s

Time,t'=13.7 minutes=822 s

Time,t''=4.1 minutes=246 s

$v=u+at$

Substitute the values

$10=0+162a=162a$

$a=\frac{10}{162}=0.0617m/s^2$

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

Substitute the values

$s=\frac{1}{2}(0.0617)(162)^2=809.6 m$

$s'=vt'=10\times 822=8220 m$

$a'=\frac{v}{t''}=\frac{10}{246}$

$s''=\frac{1}{2}a't''^2=\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{10}{246}(246)^2=1230 m$

Total distance traveled by rider=s+s'+s''=809.6+8220+1230=10259.6 m

An 80.0 kg skier slides down a hill shaped as shown. Assume

umka21 [38]

The height above the ground from where the skier start is 11.5 m.

<h3>Conservation of energy</h3>

The height above the ground from where the skier start is determined by applying the principle of conservation of energy as shown below;

P.E = K.E

mgh = ¹/₂mv²

gh = ¹/₂v²

$h = \frac{v^2}{2g} \\\\h = \frac{15^2}{2 \times 9.8} \\\\h = 11.5 \ m$

Thus, the height above the ground from where the skier start is 11.5 m.

Charge is flowing through a conductor at the rate of 420 C/min. If 742 J. of electrical energy are converted to heat in 30 s., w

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

3.53 V

Explanation:

Electric charge: The is the rate of flow of electric charge along a conductor.

The S.I unit of electric charge is C.

Mathematically it is expressed as,

Q = It ............................ Equation 1

Where Q = electric charge, I = current, t = time.

I = Q/t.......................... Equation 2

From the question, charge flows through the conductor at the rate of 420 C/mim

Which means in 1 min, 420 C of charge flows through the conductor.

Hence,

Q = 420 C, t = 1 min = 60 seconds

Substitute into equation 2

I = 420/60

I =7 A

Also

P = VI......................... Equation 3

Where P = power, V = potential drop, I = current.

V = P/I................... Equation 4

Note: Power = Energy/time

From the question, P = 742/30 = 24.733 W. and I = 7 A.

Substitute these values into equation 4

V = 24.733/7

V = 3.53 V

Hence the potential drop across the conductor = 3.53 V

What is the smallest separation between two slits that will produce a second-order minimum for 762 nm red light?

ipn [44]

Answer:

1524 nm.

Explanation:

Angular separation of n th minima is given by the expression

Sin θ = n λ / a

Where λ is wavelength of light used and a is separation between two slits .

a = n λ / sin θ

For a to be minimum, sinθ has to be maximum .

maximum value of sin of any angle is 1 .

so the relation becomes as follows

a = n λ

n = 2 , λ = 762 nm.

a = 2 x 762 nm

= 1524 nm.
