Answer:

a) h=3.16 m, b)  v_{cm }^ = 6.43 m / s

Explanation:

a) For this exercise we can use the conservation of mechanical energy

Starting point. Highest on the hill

           Em₀ = U = mg h

final point. Lowest point

           Em_{f} = K

Scientific energy has two parts, one of translation of center of mass (center of the sphere) and one of stationery, the sphere

           K = ½ m v_{cm }^{2} + ½ I_{cm} w²

angular and linear speed are related

           v = w r

           w = v / r

            K = ½ m v_{cm }^{2} + ½ I_{cm} v_{cm }^{2} / r²

            Em_{f} = ½ v_{cm }^{2} (m + I_{cm} / r2)

as there are no friction losses, mechanical energy is conserved

             Em₀ = Em_{f}

             mg h = ½ v_{cm }^{2} (m + I_{cm} / r²)         (1)

             h = ½ v_{cm }^{2} / g (1 + I_{cm} / mr²)

for the moment of inertia of a basketball we can approximate it to a spherical shell

             I_{cm} = ⅔ m r²

we substitute

            h = ½ v_{cm }^{2} / g (1 + ⅔ mr² / mr²)

            h = ½ v_{cm }^{2}/g    5/3

             h = 5/6 v_{cm }^{2} / g

           

let's calculate

           h = 5/6 6.1 2 / 9.8

           h = 3.16 m

b) this part of the exercise we solve the speed of equation 1

          v_{cm }^{2} = 2m gh / (1 + I_{cm} / r²)

in this case the object is a frozen juice container, which we can simulate a solid cylinder with moment of inertia

              I_{cm} = ½ m r²

we substitute

             v_{cm } = √ [2gh / (1 + ½)]

             v_{cm } = √(4/3 gh)

let's calculate

             v_{cm } = √ (4/3 9.8 3.16)

             v_{cm }^ = 6.43 m / s

The electromagnetic wave that delivers a cellular phone callto
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

E=2.41\cdot 10^{-5} J

Explanation:

The intensity of an electromagnetic wave can be expressed in terms of the magnetic field using the next relationship:

I_{average}=\frac{cB_{0}^{2}}{2\mu_{0}} (1)

  • c is the speed of light (3*10⁸ m/s)
  • μ₀ is the permeability of free space (in vacuum ) (1.26*10⁻⁶ N/A²)
  • B₀ is the magnetic field

I_{average}=\frac{3\cdot 10^{8}(1.5\cdot 10^{-10})^{2}}{2\cdot 1.26\cdot 10^{-6}}

I_{average}=2.68\cdot 10^{-6} W/m^{2}

Now, let's define the relationship between power (P) and average intensity (I).

I_{average}=\frac{P}{A}

  • P is the power
  • A is the area crossed

So we can calculate the power.

P=I_{average}\cdot A=2.68\cdot 10^{-6}\cdot 0.20=5.37\cdot 10^{-7} W

Finally, energy is the product of P times time, so:

E=P\cdot t=5.37\cdot 10^{-7} \cdot 45=2.41\cdot 10^{-5} J

I hope it helps you!

Define the term dimension<br>​
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Q1. A measurable extent of a particular kind, such as length, breadth, depth, or height.

Q2. A dimensional constant is a physical quantity that has dimensions and has a fixed value. Some of the examples of the dimensional constant are Planck's constant, gravitational constant, and so on.

Q3. Physical quantities which posses dimensions and have variable are called dimensional variables. Examples are length, velocity, and acceleration etc.

Q4. Dimensionless variables are the quantities which doesn't have any dimensions the the value is a variable. Eg: angle = arc/ radius. Dimensions = L/L. = 1. So angle does not have any dimensions and the value can vary.

Q5. Principle of Homogeneity states that dimensions of each of the terms of a dimensional equation on both sides should be the same. This principle is helpful because it helps us convert the units from one form to another.

Q6. Dimensional analysis has been around a long time, Newton called it the "Great principle of Similitude", but the modern form can be traced back to James Clerk Maxwell. It was Maxwell who distinguished mass [A/], length [£], and time [7"] as the independent dimensions from which others could be derived.

Q7. Mass, length, time, temperature, electric current, amount of light, and amount of matter.

Q8. Dimensional analysis is used to convert the value of a physical quantity from one system of units to another system of units. Dimensional analysis is used to represent the nature of physical quantity. The expressions of dimensions can be manipulated as algebraic quantities.

Hope that helps. x

the smallest unit in physics is the Planet length.wr need to know constant (h) the speed of light (c) and Newton's Gravitational
fgiga [73]

Yes, that's right.  It's the 'Planck' length, not the 'Planet' length.

You could easily find these with a web search.  But in gratitude
for the bountiful 5 points, I've saved you the trouble. 
AND guess what !   By doing that, I learned something, and
you didn't.

Speed of light (c):                 299,792,458 meters per second

Gravitational constant (G):   6.67 x 10⁻¹¹  newton-meter²/kilogram²

Planck's Konstant (h):           6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ joule-second

Planck Length:                      1.6 x 10⁻³⁵ meter
                                            (about 10⁻²⁰ the size of a proton)

Planck Time:                          10⁻⁴³ second
                                             (about the time it takes to travel
                                              a Planck Length at the speed of light)
