Questions:(a) Why should the amplitude of oscillation be small on a pendulum experiment​

Physics

The formula for the pendulum experiment is based on the assumption that the amplitude is small so that the angle is approximately equal to the Sine of the angle.

Consider the following cyclic process carried out in two steps on a gas. Step 1: 44 J of heat is added to the gas, and 20. J of
notka56 [123]

Answer:37 J

Explanation:

Given

Step :1

Heat added Q=44 J

Work done=-20 J

\Delta E_1=Q+W=44-20=24 J

Step :2

Heat added Q=-61 J

work done W_2

\Delta E_2=Q+W_2

\Delta E_2=61+W_2

\Delta E_1+\Delta E_2=0

as the process is cyclic

44-20-61+W_2=0

W_2=37 J

work done in compression is 37 J

A gas is placed in a storage tank at a pressure of 49.2 atm at 39.0C . As a safety device, a small metal plug in the tank is mad
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

The maximum pressure that will be attained in the tank before the plug melts and releases gas should be less than 74.26 atm.

Explanation:

To calculate the final pressure of the system, we use the equation given by Gay-Lussac Law. This law states that pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.

Mathematically,

\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1\text{ and }T_1 are the initial pressure and temperature of the gas.

P_2\text{ and }T_2 are the final pressure and temperature of the gas.

We are given:

P_1=49.2 atm\\T_1=39.0^oC = 312.15 K\\P_2=?\\T_2=198^oC=471.15 K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\frac{49.2atm }{312.15 K}=\frac{P_2}{471.15 K}\\\\P_2=74.26 atm

The maximum pressure that will be attained in the tank before the plug melts and releases gas should be less than 74.26 atm.

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

 N = 23.4 N

Explanation:

After reading that long sentence, let's solve the question

The contact force is the so-called normal in this case we can find it by writing the translational equilibrium equation for the y axis

            N - w₁ -w₂ =

            N = m₁ g + m₂ g

            N = g (m₁ + m₂)

let's calculate

            N = 9.8 (0.760 + 1.630)

            N = 23.4 N

This is the force of the support of the two blocks on the surface.

What does frequency mean in science
matrenka [14]

There's nothing mysterious about it at all. "Frequency" simply means
"often-ness" ... how often or how frequently something happens.

-- The frequency of traditional meals is 3 per day.
-- The frequency of an equinox is 2 per year.
-- The frequency of my sleeping really late is 1 per week.
-- The frequency of my intense desire to sleep late is 30 per month.
etc.

-- The standard unit of frequency in the SI system is "per second".
The special name for that unit is "Hertz".  (Hz)

A circular 10-turn coil with a radius of 5.0 cm carries a current of 5 A. It lies in the xy plane in a uniform magnetic field =
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

U = – 0.12J

Explanation:

Given N = 10 turns, I = 5A, r = 5×10-²m

B^ = 0.05 T iˆ+ 0.3 T kˆ

Magnitude of the magnetic field vector B = √(0.05²+0.3²) = 0.304T

Area = πr² = π(5×10-²)² = 7.85×10-³m²

Magnetic moment μ = NIA

μ = 10×5×7.85×10-³ = 0.3925Am²

U = -μ•B = –0.3925×0.304 = –0.12J

The sign is negative because the magnetic moment is aligned with the magnetic field.
