Answer:

Force, F = 135 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the bicyclist, m = 90 kg

Centripetal acceleration of the bicyclist, $a=1.5\ m/s^2$

To find,

The centripetal force acting on the bicyclist.

Solution,

When an object moves in a circular track, it will under the action of centripetal acceleration and the exerted force is called centripetal force. It can be calculated as :

$F=ma$

$F=90\ kg\times 1.5\ m/s^2$

F = 135 N

So, the centripetal force acting on the bicyclist is 135 N.

2. A 20 cm object is placed 10cm in front of a convex lens of focal length 5cm. Calculate

adoni [48]

Answer:

 » Image distance :

${ \tt{ \frac{1}{v} + \frac{1}{u} = \frac{1}{f} }} \\$

v is image distance
u is object distance, u is 10 cm
f is focal length, f is 5 cm

${ \tt{ \frac{1}{v} + \frac{1}{10} = \frac{1}{5} }} \\ \\ { \tt{ \frac{1}{v} = \frac{1}{10} }} \\ \\ { \tt{v = 10}} \\ \\ { \underline{ \underline{ \pmb{ \red{ \: image \: distance \: is \: 10 \: cm \: \: }}}}}$

 » Magnification :

• Let's derive this formula from the lens formula:

${ \tt{ \frac{1}{v} + \frac{1}{u} = \frac{1}{f} }} \\$

» Multiply throughout by fv

${ \tt{fv( \frac{1}{v} + \frac{1}{u} ) = fv( \frac{1}{f} )}} \\ \\ { \tt{ \frac{fv}{v} + \frac{fv}{u} = \frac{fv}{f} }} \\ \\ { \tt{f + f( \frac{v}{u} ) = v}}$

• But we know that, v/u is M

${ \tt{f + fM = v}} \\ { \tt{f(1 +M) = v }} \\ { \tt{1 +M = \frac{v}{f} }} \\ \\ { \boxed{ \mathfrak{formular : } \: { \tt{ M = \frac{v}{f} - 1 }}}}$

v is image distance, v is 10 cm
f is focal length, f is 5 cm
M is magnification.

${ \tt{M = \frac{10}{5} - 1 }} \\ \\ { \tt{M = 5 - 1}} \\ \\ { \underline{ \underline{ \pmb{ \red{ \: magnification \: is \: 4}}}}}$

 » Nature of Image :

Image is magnified
Image is erect or upright
Image is inverted
Image distance is identical to object distance.

Design an experimental set up to show that white light is made up of different colours of light

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

Issac Newton was the first to use a glass prism to obtain the spectrum of sunlight. He tried to split the colours of the spectrum of white light further by using another similar prism. However, he could not get any more colours. He then placed a second identical prism in an inverted position with respect to the first as shown.

This allowed all the colours of the spectrum to pass through the second prism. He found a beam of white light emerging from the other side of the second prism. This observation gave Newton the idea that the sunlight is made-up of seven colours.

a) What is the average useful power output of a person who does6.00×10^6Jof useful work in 8.00 h? (b) Working at this rate, how

NARA [144]

Answer:

208.33 W

141.26626 seconds

Explanation:

E = Energy = $6\times 10^6\ J$

t = Time taken = 8 h

m = Mass = 2000 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h = Height of platform = 1.5 m

Power is obtained when we divide energy by time

$P=\frac{E}{t}\\\Rightarrow P=\frac{6\times 10^6}{8\times 60\times 60}\\\Rightarrow P=208.33\ W$

The average useful power output of the person is 208.33 W

The energy in the next part would be the potential energy

The time taken would be

$t=\frac{E}{P}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{mgh}{208.33}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{2000\times 9.81\times 1.5}{208.33}\\\Rightarrow t=141.26626\ s$

The time taken to lift the load is 141.26626 seconds
