A horizontal clothesline is tied between 2 poles, 12 meters apart. When a mass of 4 kilograms is tied to the middle of the cloth

esline, it sags a distance of 5 meters. What is the magnitude of the tension on the ends of the clothesline?

Answer:

T=26.03 N

Explanation:

Given that

Distance between poles = 12 m

Mass of block m= 4 kg

Sag distance = 5 m

Lets take tension in the clothesline is T.

The component of tension in vertical direction will be T cosθ.

By force balancing

2 T cosθ = 40

here tan\theta =\dfrac{5}{6}

θ=39.80°

2 T cos39.8 = 40

T=26.03 N

An electron is accelerated through 2400 V from rest and then enters a region in which there is a uniform 1.70 T magnetic field.
aalyn [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let v be the velocity acquired by electron in electric field

V q = 1/2 m v²

V is potential difference applied on charge q , m is mass of charge , v is velocity acquired

2400 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ = .5 x 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ x v²

v² = 844 x 10¹²

v = 29.05 x 10⁶ m /s

Maximum force will be exerted on moving electron when it moves perpendicular to magnetic field .

Maximum force = Bqv , where B is magnetic field , q is charge on electron and v is velocity of electron

= 1.7 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 29.05 x 10⁶

= 79.02 x 10⁻¹³ N .

Minimum force will be zero when electron moves along the direction of magnetic field .

onsider two projectiles that can be shot upward by spring guns. Object A is made of solid aluminum and has a mass of 50 grams. O
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

From Newton's law of motion, we have:

V^2 = U^2 + 2gH

Where V and U are final and initial velocity respectively.

H is the height.

For the object to have a sustain a maximum height it means the final velocity of the object is zero.

By computing the height of the object sustain by A, we have:

0^2 = 2^2 -2×10×H

0= 4 -20H

4 = 20H;

H= 0.2m

For object B we have;

0^2 = 1^2 -2×10×H

0 = 1 -20H

H = 1/20= 0.05m

From computing the height sustain by both objects, we see object B is projected at a shorter height into atmosphere than A.

Hence object B will return to the ground first.
