A light goes out when you turn off the wall switch because <u />B. the switch causes a break in the circuit.
Since there is a break in the circuit, electricity cannot come through to the bulb, which is why there is no light anymore.

Answer:

The answer is "151.25 J and -547.64 J".

Explanation:

$u = 0\\\\v = 2.35\ \frac{m}{sec}\\\\d = 5.0 \ m\\\\$

Using formula:

$v^2 = u^2 + 2 \times a \times d\\\\2.35^2 = 0^2 + 2 \times a \times 5\\\\a = \frac{2.35^2}{10} \\\\$

$= 0.55 \ \frac{m}{sec^2}\\\\$

$F_{net} = m \times a\\\\F_{net} = 55 \times 0.55 = 30.25\ N\\\\$

Calculating the Work by net force

$W = F_{net}\times d\\\\W = 30.25 \times 5 = 151.25 \ J\\\\$

The above work is converted into thermal energy.

Now,

$F_{net} = F_p - F_f\\\\F_p = 140 \ N\\\\F_f = u_k\times m \times g = u_k \times 55 \times 9.81\\\\F_f = 539.55 \times u_k\\\\30.25 = 140 - u_k \times 55 \times 9.81\\\\u_k = \frac{(140 - 30.25)}{(55\times 9.81)}\\\\uk = 0.203 = \text{Coefficient of friction}\\\\W_f = -F_f \times d\\\\W_f = -0.203 \times 55 \times 9.81 \times 5\\\\Work\ done\ by\ friction = -547.64 \ J$

The earth exerts the necessary centripetal force on an orbiting satellite to keep it moving in a circle at constant speed. Which

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

E) The centripetal force is always perpendicular to the velocity.

Explanation:

Due to gravity and inertia, the satellite follows a uniform circular motion. In this movement, the velocity is always tangent to the orbit and the centripetal force is directed towards the center. Therefore, there is no net acceleration in the same direction of velocity, which implies that it remains constant.

2. A ball tied to a pole by a rope swings in a circular path with a centripetal acceleration of 2.7 m/s. If the ball has a

Helga [31]

Answer: The diameter of the circular path is 2.96m

Explanation: centripetal acceleration = tangential speed^2 / radius of the circular path.

Centripetal acceleration = 2.7m/s^2

Tangential speed = 2.0m/s

Radius = 2.0^2 / 2.7 = 4/2.7

= 1.48m

Diameter = radius*2

= 1.48*2 = 2.96m.

#1 Not sure where to start. This is for AP Physics!

yaroslaw [1]

First,

$\rho=\dfrac mV$

where $\rho$ is density, $m$ is mass, and $V$ is volume. We can compute the volume of the roll:

$2.7\,\dfrac{\mathrm g}{\mathrm{cm}^3}=\dfrac{1275\,\mathrm g}V$

$\implies V\approx472.22\,\mathrm{cm}^3\approx4.72\,\mathrm m^3$

When the roll is unfurled, the aluminum will be a rectangular box (a very thin one), so its volume will be the product of the given area and its thickness $x$ . Note that we're assuming the given area is not the actual total surface area of the aluminum box, but just the area of the largest face (i.e. the area of one side of the unrolled sheet of aluminum).

So we have

$V=Ax$

where $A$ is the given area, so

$4.72\,\mathrm m^3=\left(18.5\,\mathrm m^2\right)x$

$\implies x\approx0.255\,\mathrm m=255\,\mathrm{mm}$

If we're taking significant digits into account, the volume we found would have been $V=470\,\mathrm m^3$ , in turn making the thickness $x=250\,\mathrm{mm}$ .
