The maximum mass the can be hung vertically from a string without breaking the string is 10kg. A length of this string that is 2

m long is used to rotate a 0.5kg object in a circle on a frictionless table with the string horizontal. The maximum speed that the mass can attain under these conditions without the string breaking is most nearly:

Answer:

Explanation:

Think about circular motion when answering this question. First determine the maximum force that can be applied on the string. F = mg so F = (10)(10) = 100 N. Then determine the centripetal acceleration of the .5 kg mass, a = F/m so a = 100/.5 = 200 m/s².  On the equation sheet, use equation a(centripetal acceleration) = v²/r so 200 = v²/2 therefore v = 20 m/s. Hope this helps!

A flat coil of wire consisting of 15 turns, each with an area of 40 cm 2, is positioned perpendicularly to a uniform magnetic fi
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

0.54 A

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Number of turns, N = 15

Area of coil, A = 40 cm² = 0.004 m²

Change in magnetic field, ΔB = 5.1 - 1.5 = 3.6 T

Time interval, Δt = 2 secs

Resistance of the coil, R = 0.2 ohms

To get the magnitude of the current, we have to first find the magnitude of the EMF induced in the coil:

|V| = |(-N * ΔB * A) /Δt)

|V| = | (-15 * 3.6 * 0.004) / 2 |

|V| = 0.108 V

According to Ohm's law:

|V| = |I| * R

|I| = |V| / R

|I| = 0.108 / 0.2

|I| = 0.54 A

The magnitude of the current in the coil of wire is 0.54 A

An ice skater has a moment of inertia of 5.0 kgm2 when her arms are outstretched. at this time she is spinning at 3.0 revolution
givi [52]
With arms outstretched,
Moment of inertia is I = 5.0 kg-m².
Rotational speed is ω = (3 rev/s)*(2π rad/rev) = 6π rad/s
The torque required is
T = Iω = (5.0 kg-m²)*(6π rad/s) = 30π 

Assume that the same torque drives the rotational motion at a moment of inertia of 2.0 kg-m².
If u = new rotational speed (rad/s), then
T = 2u = 30π
u = 15π rad/s
   = (15π rad/s)*(1 rev/2π rad)
   = 7.5 rev/s

Answer: 7.5  revolutions per second.

A rectangular gasoline tank can hold 50.0 kg of gasoline when full. What is the depth of the tank if it is 0.500-m wide by 0.900
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

0.16 m

Explanation:

A rectangular gasoline tank can hold 50.0 kg of gasoline when full, and the density of gasoline is 6.8 × 10² kg/m³. We can find the volume occupied by the gasoline (volume of the tank).

50.0 kg × (1 m³/6.8 × 10² kg) = 0.074 m³

The volume of the rectangular tank is:

volume = width × length × depth

depth = volume / width × length

depth = 0.074 m³ / 0.500 m × 0.900 m

depth = 0.16 m
