Answer:

Work done = 35467.278 J

Explanation:

Given:

Height of the cone = 4m

radius (r) of the cone = 1.2m

Density of the cone = 600kg/m³

Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

Now,

The total mass of the cone (m) = Density of the cone × volume of the cone

Volume of the cone = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h

thus,

volume of the cone = \frac{1}{3}\pi 1.2^2\times 4 = 6.03 m³

therefore, the mass of the cone = 600 Kg/m³ × 6.03 m³ = 3619.11 kg

The center of mass for the cone lies at the \frac{1}{4}times the total height

thus,

center of mass lies at,  h' = \frac{1}{4}\times4=1m

Now, the work gone (W) against gravity is given as:

W = mgh'

W = 3619.11kg × 9.8 m/s² × 1 = 35467.278 J

Calculation using Ohm's Law: If a circuit has a voltage of 500 V and a resistance of 250 ohms, what is the current?
konstantin123 [22]

I = V / R

Current = (voltage) / (resistance)

Current = (500 V) / (250 ohms)

Current = (500/250) Amperes

<em>Current = 2 Amperes</em>

The value of acceleration due to gravity (g) on Pluto is about . 0.61 meters/second2. How much will an object that weighs 250 ne
Annette [7]
First, determine the mass of the object by dividing its weight on Earth by 9.8 m/s² as shown below,
                                   m = 250 N / 9.8 m/s² = 25.51 kg
Then, multiply the obtained mass by the acceleration due to gravity (g) on Pluto. 
                                  W (in Pluto) = (25.51 kg) x (0.61 m/s²)  = 15.56 N
Therefore, the object will only weigh 15.56 N.

A charged particle moves at 2.5 × 104 m/s at an angle of 25° to a magnetic field that has a field strength of 8.1 × 10–2 T. If t
nekit [7.7K]

the magnitude of charge=q=8.76 x 10⁻⁵C

Explanation:

the magnetic force Fm is given by

Fm= q V B sinθ

q= charge

v= velocity= 2.5 x 10⁴ m/s

B= magnetic field strength= 8.1 x 10⁻²T

Fm= magnetic force= 7.5 x 10⁻² N

θ=25°

so 7.5 x 10⁻² =q (2.5 x 10⁴ ) (8.1 x 10⁻²) sin25

q=8.76 x 10⁻⁵C

Please answer any of these thanks !

1).  The equation is: (speed) = (frequency) x (wavelength)

Speed = (256 Hz) x (1.3 m) = 332.8 meters per second

 2).  If the instrument is played louder, the amplitude of the waves increases.
On the oscilloscope, they would appear larger from top to bottom, but the
horizontal size of each wave doesn't change.

If the instrument is played at a higher pitch, then the waves become shorter,
because 'pitch' is directly related to the frequency of the waves, and higher
pitch means higher frequency and more waves in any period of time.

If the instrument plays louder and at higher pitch, the waves on the scope
become taller and there are more of them across the screen.

3).  The equation is:  Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength)
(Notice that this is exactly the same as the equation up above in question #1,
only with each side of that one divided by 'wavelength'.)

Frequency = 300,000,000 meters per second / 1,500 meters = 200,000 per second.

That's ' 200 k Hz ' .

Note:
I didn't think anybody broadcasts at 200 kHz, so I looked up BBC Radio 4
on-line, and I was surprised.  They broadcast on several different frequencies,
and one of them is 198 kHz !

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply conservation of mechanical energy

kinetic energy of alpha particle is converted into electric potential energy.

1/2 mv² = k q₁q₂/d , d is closest distance

d = 2kq₁q₂ / mv²

= 2 x 9 x 10⁹ x 79e x 2e / 4mv²

= 1422 x2x (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹)² x 10⁹ /4x 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ x (1.5 x 10⁷)²

= 3640.32 x 10⁻²⁹ /2x 3.7575 x 10⁻¹³

= 484.4 x 10⁻¹⁶

=48.4  x 10⁻¹⁵ m
