Why is it so important to know how the parts of a can opener work

Physics
1 answer:
Dafna1 [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Hi there!

There are many possible answers!

My best guesses are:

1) Knowing how they work will prevent injury! For example, knowing that the gears twist will stop you from putting your finger in it!

2) Allowing you to use it! Knowing how to line up the edge of the can with the tool will let you use it properly!

Hope this helps

An electron is released from rest in a weak electric field given by E =-2.30 x 10-10 N/Cj. After the electron has traveled a ver
Goshia [24]

Explanation:

It is given that,

An electron is released from rest in a weak electric field of, E=2.3\times 10^{-10}\ N/C

Vertical distance covered, s=1\ \mu m=10^{-6}\ m

We need to find the speed of the electron. Let its speed is v. Using third equation of motion as :

v^2-u^2=2as

v^2=2as.............(1)

Electric force is F_e and force of gravity is F_g. As both forces are acting in downward direction. So, total force is:

F=mg+qE

F=9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 9.8+1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 2.3\times 10^{-10}

F=4.57\times 10^{-29}\ N

Acceleration of the electron, a=\dfrac{F}{m}

a=\dfrac{4.57\times 10^{-29}\ N}{9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg}

a=50.21\ m/s^2

Put the value of a in equation (1) as :

v=\sqrt{2as}

v=\sqrt{2\times 50.21\times 10^{-6}}

v = 0.010 m/s

So, the speed of the electron is 0.010 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

A 115 g hockey puck sent sliding over ice is stopped in 15.1 m by the frictional force on it from the ice.
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

(a) Ff = 0.128 N

(b μk = 0.1135

Explanation:

kinematic analysis

Because the hockey puck  moves with uniformly accelerated movement we apply the following formulas:

vf=v₀+a*t Formula (1)

d= v₀t+ (1/2)*a*t² Formula (2)

Where:  

d:displacement in meters (m)  

t : time in seconds (s)

v₀: initial speed in m/s  

vf: final speed in m/s  

a: acceleration in m/s

Calculation of the acceleration of the  hockey puck

We apply the Formula (1)

vf=v₀+a*t      v₀=5.8 m/s ,  vf=0

0=5.8+a*t

-5.8 = a*t

a= -5.8/t   Equation (1)

We replace a= -5.8/t in the Formula (2)

d= v₀*t+ (1/2)*a*t²   ,  d=15.1 m ,  v₀=5.8 m/s

15.1 = 5.8*t+ (1/2)*(-5.8/t)*t²  

15.1= 5.8*t-2.9*t

15.1= 2.9*t

t = 15.1 / 2.9

t= 5.2 s

We replace t= 5.2 s in the equation (1)

a= -5.8/5.2

a= -1.115 m/s²

(a) Calculation of the  frictional force (Ff)

We apply Newton's second law

∑F = m*a    Formula (3)

∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in Newton (N)

m : mass in kilograms (kg)

a : acceleration in meters over second square (m/s²)

Look at the free body diagram of the  hockey puck in the attached graphic

∑Fx = m*a     m= 115g * 10⁻³ Kg/g = 0.115g    ,  a= -1.12 m/s²

-Ff = 0.115*(-1.115)  We multiply by (-1 ) on both sides of the equation

Ff = 0.128 N

(b) Calculation of the coefficient of friction (μk)

N: Normal Force (N)

W=m*g= 0.115*9.8= 1.127 N : hockey puck  Weight

g: acceleration due to gravity =9.8 m/s²

∑Fy = 0

N-W=0

N = W

N =  1.127 N

μk = Ff/N

μk = 0.128/1.127

μk = 0.1135
