Answer:

Work done on the car will be 548440.9463 J

Explanation:

We have given mass of the car m = 1075 kg

As the car finally stops so final velocity of the car v_f=0m/sec

Initial velocity of car u = 115 km/hr =115\times \frac{5}{18}=31.943m/sec

Work done is equal to change in kinetic energy

So work done =\frac{1}{2}mv_f^2-\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2

==\frac{1}{2}m(v_f^2-v_i^2)=\frac{1}{2}\times 1075\times (0^2-31.943^2)=-548440.946J

As the work done is negative so work is done on the car to stop it .

An iron block of density rhoFe and of volume l 3 is immersed in a fluid of density rhofluid. The block hangs from a scale which
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

R=m*g-∀fl*g*l3

Explanation:

<em>An iron block of density rhoFe and of volume l 3 is immersed in a fluid of density rhofluid. The block hangs from a scale which reads W as the weight. The top of the block is a height h below the surface of the fluid. The correct equation for the reading of the scale is</em>

From Archimedes' principle we know that a body when immersed in a fluid, fully or partially, experiences an the upward buoyant force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced. As the body is fully submerged in water, volume of water displaced  

density of iron =mass/ volume

rho=m/l3

mass=rhol3

weight fluid=rhofluid*g*Volume

weight of fluid=rhofluid*g*l3

F=∀fl*g*l3

Downward force is weight of iron

w=m*g

Reading on the spring scale

R=w-F

R=m*g-∀fl*g*l3

m=mass of iron

g=acceleration due to ravity

rhfld=density of fluid

l3=volume of fluid displaced

Now find the components NxNxN_x and NyNyN_y of N⃗ N→N_vec in the tilted coordinate system of Part B. Express your answer in term
MArishka [77]

Answer:

N_{y} =NcosФ,

N_{x} =-Nsin Ф

Explanation:

Now find the components NxNxN_x and NyNyN_y of N⃗ N→N_vec in the tilted coordinate system of Part B. Express your answer in terms of the length of the vector NNN and the angle θθtheta, with the components separated by a comma.

Vectors are quantities that  have both magnitude and direction while scalar quantities have only magnitude but no direction.

This a vector quantity

from the diagram the horizontal component of the length of the vector will be

N_{y} =NcosФ

the vertical component will be

N_{x} =-Nsin Ф

this is in the opposite direction because the x can be extrapolated to the negative axis

A solid conducting sphere with radius R that carries positive charge Q is concentric with a very thin insulating shell of radius
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

The specific question is not stated, however the general idea is given in the attached picture. The electric field in each region can be found by Gauss’ Law.

at r < R:

Since the solid sphere is conducting, the total charge Q is distributed over the surface, and the electric field inside the sphere is zero.

E = 0.

at R < r < 2R:

The electric field can be found by Gauss’ Law as in the attachment. The green pencil shows this exact region.

at 2R < r:

The electric field can again be found by Gauss’ Law, the blue pencil shows the calculations for this region.

Explanation:

Gauss’ Law is straightforward when applied to spheres. The area of the sphere is A = 4\pi r^2, and the enclosed charge is given in the question as Q for the inner sphere, and 2Q for the whole system.

Why is the solar system commonly represented as a scale model?
topjm [15]
The actual size of the Solar system is too big to show without making a much smaller model. If someone wants to see the orientation of the planets a model has to be made so we can see it without flying out too space.
