A certain string just breaks when it is under400N of tension.

Physics
1 answer:
OLEGan [10]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The string will break with a speed of 20 m/s.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Tension at which the string just breaks, T = 400 N

Mass of the stone, m = 10 kg

Radius of the circle, r = 10 m

We need to find the speed at which the string will break. The boy continuously increases the speed of the  stone. The tension acting on the stone is equal to the centripetal force. It is a force that acts towards the center of circle. It is given by :

T=F=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{Tr}{m}}

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{400\ N\times 10\ m}{10\ kg}}

v = 20 m/s

So, the string will break with a speed of 20 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

c. 2.7 m/s

Explanation:

v = a.t + v_{0}\\a = g = 9.81 m/s^{2}} \\t=0.28 s \\v_{0} = 0\\=> v = 9.81 * 0.28 = 2.74 m/s

Gravity on Jupiter is 25 m/s/s, what is the weight of a 12 kg object on Jupiter?
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

300 Newtons

Explanation:

Weight is the force of attraction between two bodies, one usually larger (like a planet), and one smaller (like a person). Force can be calculated using the formula: Force = mass × acceleration.

The mass here is 12kg, the acceleration, which in this case, is the acceleration due to gravity is 25m/s/s, by plugging in our values, we have

Force = 12 × 25 = 300 Newtons or 300 N for short.

N capacitors are connected in parallel to form a "capacitor circuit". The capacitance of first capacitor is C, second one is C/2
liberstina [14]

Answer:

2C

Explanation:

The equivalent capacitance of a parallel combination of capacitors is the sum of their capacitance.

So, if the capacitance of each capacitor is half the previous one, we have a geometric series with first term = C and rate = 0.5.

Using the formula for the sum of the infinite terms of a geometric series, we have:

Sum = First term / (1 - rate)

Sum = C / (1 - 0.5)

Sum = C / 0.5 = 2C

So the equivalent capacitance of this parallel connection is 2C.
