<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>The depth of barge float=3 cm</h2><h2>Explanation:</h2>

Length of rectangular barge=5.2 m

Width of rectangular barge=2.4m

Mass of crate=410 kg

Let h be the height of barge float

Volume of barge float= $l\times b\times h=5.2\times 2.4\times h=12.48h$

Density of water= $10^3kg/m^3$

Weight of water displaced by barge=Buoyant force=-Weight of horse

$Volume\;of\;water\times density\;of\;water\times g=410\times g$

$12.48h\times 1000=410$

$h=\frac{410}{12.48\times 1000}=0.03 m$

1 m=100 cm

$0.03 m=0.03\times 100=3$ cm

Hence, the depth of barge float=3 cm

Answer:

Explanation:

length, l = 5.2 m

width, w = 2.4 m

density of water = 1000 kg/m³

Let the depth immersed in water is h.

So, According to the principle of flotation

Weight of the auto parts = Buoyant force acting on the barge

410 x g = 5.2 x 2.4 x h x 1000 x g

410 = 12480 h

h = 3.3 cm

You are pushing a 60 kg block of ice across the ground. You exert a constant force of 9 N on the block of ice. You let go after

kotykmax [81]

Answer: d = 33 cm or 0.33 m

Explanation: In physics, Work is the amount of energy transferred to an object to make it move. It can be expressed by:

W = F.d.cosθ

F is the force applied to the object, d is the displacement and θ is the angle formed between the force and the displacement.

For the ice block, the angle is 0, i.e., force and distance are at the same direction, so:

W = F.d.cos(0)

W = F.d

To determine d:

d = $\frac{W}{F}$

d = $\frac{3}{9}$

d = 0.33 m

The distance d the block ice moved is 33 cm.

A plane designed for vertical takeoff has a mass of 8.0 × 10³ kg. Find the net work done by all forces on the plane as it accele

artcher [175]

Answer:

<em>the net work done after starting from rest is = 2.4 × 10⁵ J</em>

Explanation:

Work: Work can be defined as the product of force and distance. The fundamental unit of work is Joules (J), The unit of Energy is Joules (J), as such Energy and work are interchangeable during calculation, This is illustrated below

E = W = 1/2mv².......................... Equation 1

Where m = mass of the plane, v = velocity of the plane, E = Energy, W = work done.

v² = u² + 2as ................................. Equation 2.

Where v = final velocity of the plane, u = initial velocity of the plane, a = acceleration of the plane, distance of the plane.

<em>Given: a = 1.0 m/s², s = 30 m, u = 0 m/s (at rest)</em>

<em>Substituting these values into equation 2</em>

<em>v² = 0² +2×1×30</em>

<em>v² = 60</em>

<em>v = √60</em>

<em>v = 7.75 m/s</em>

Also given: m = 8.0 × 10³ kg, and v = 7.75 m/s

<em>Substituting these values into equation 1,</em>

<em>W = 1/2(8.0×10³)(7.75)²</em>

<em>W = (4.0×10³)(60)</em>

W = 240 × 10³ J

<em>W = 2.4 × 10⁵ J</em>

<em>Therefore the net work done after starting from rest is = 2.4 × 10⁵ J</em>

An oven uses 4500 watts of power in 2 minutes, how much work was done?

jolli1 [7]

First of all we state the formula
Power=work done/time
we can rearrange this formula as well
work done=power x time

Since the SI unit of time is in seconds we change the minutes to seconds
2mins= 60x2 = 120 seconds

Using our formula (work done=power x time) we simply put in the values
work done = 4500 x 120
work done = 540,000J

1) A thin ring made of uniformly charged insulating material has total charge Q and radius R. The ring is positioned along the x

allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

(A) considering the charge "q" evenly distributed, applying the technique of charge integration for finite charges, you obtain the expression for the potential along any point in the Z-axis:

$V(z)=\frac{Q}{4\pi (\epsilon_{0}) \sqrt{R^{2} +z^{2}} }$

With $(\epsilon_{0})$ been the vacuum permittivity

(B) The expression for the magnitude of the E(z) electric field along the Z-axis is:

$E(z)=\frac{QZ}{4\pi (\epsilon_{0}) (R^{2} +z^{2})^{\frac{3}{2} } }$

Explanation:

(A) Considering a uniform linear density $λ_{0}$ on the ring, then:

$dQ=\lambda dl$ (1)⇒ $Q=\lambda_{0} 2\pi R$ (2)⇒ $\lambda_{0}=\frac{Q}{2\pi R}$ (3)

Applying the technique of charge integration for finite charges:

$V(z)= 4\pi (ε_{0})\int\limits^a_b {\frac{1}{ r' }} \, dQ$ (4)

Been r' the distance between the charge and the observation point and a, b limits of integration of the charge. In this case a=2π and b=0.

Using cylindrical coordinates, the distance between a point of the Z-axis and a point of a ring with R radius is:

$r'=\sqrt{R^{2} +Z^{2}}$ (5)

Using the expressions (1),(4) and (5) you obtain:

$V(z)= 4\pi (\epsilon_{0})\int\limits^a_b {\frac{\lambda_{0}R}{ \sqrt{R^{2} +Z^{2}} }} \, d\phi$

Integrating results:

$V(z)=\frac{Q}{4\pi (\epsilon_{0}) \sqrt{R^{2} +z^{2}} }$ (S_a)

(B) For the expression of the magnitude of the field E(z), is important to remember:

$|E| =-\nabla V$ (6)

But in this case you only work in the z variable, soo the expression (6) can be rewritten as:

$|E| =-\frac{dV(z)}{dz}$ (7)

Using expression (7) and (S_a), you get the expression of the magnitude of the field E(z):

$E(z)=\frac{QZ}{4\pi (\epsilon_{0}) (R^{2} +z^{2})^{\frac{3}{2} } }$ (S_b)
