An insulating plastic rod is charged by rubbing it with a wool cloth, and then brought to an initially neutral conducting metall

ic sphere sitting on an insulating stand. The rod touches the sphere for a few seconds, and then is separated from the sphere by a small distance. After the rod is separated, the rod:_____
A) is repelled by the sphere.
B) is attracted to the sphere.
C) feels no force due to the sphere.

Answer:

A) is repelled by the sphere.

Explanation:

When a charged insulated rod is touched with an insulated conducting sphere , some  charge on the rod gets transferred to the sphere . So they become similarly charged . We all know that there is repulsion when two similarly charged object are brought near to each other . Hence here too there will be repulsion between the rod and the sphere when the rod is brought near the sphere.

A runner of mass 53.0 kg runs around the edge of a horizontal turntable mounted on a vertical, frictionless axis through its cen
const2013 [10]

Answer:

0.336 rad/s

Explanation:

\omega_1 = Angular speed of the turntable = -0.2 rad/s

R = Radius of turntable = 2.9 m

I = Moment of inertia of turntable = 76\ kgm^2

M = Mass of turn table = 53 kg

v_1 = Magnitude of the runner's velocity relative to the earth  = 3.6 m/s

As the momentum in the system is conserved we have

Mv_1R+I\omega_1=(I + MR^2)\omega_2\\\Rightarrow \omega_2=\dfrac{Mv_1R+I\omega_1}{I + MR^2}\\\Rightarrow \omega_2=\dfrac{53\times 3.6-76\times 0.2}{76+53\times 2.9^2}\\\Rightarrow \omega_2=0.336\ rad/s

The angular velocity of the system if the runner comes to rest relative to the turntable which is the required answer is 0.336 rad/s

The international space station makes 15.65 revolutions per day in its orbit around the earth. assuming a circular orbit, how hi
sweet-ann [11.9K]
<span>373.2 km The formula for velocity at any point within an orbit is v = sqrt(mu(2/r - 1/a)) where v = velocity mu = standard gravitational parameter (GM) r = radius satellite currently at a = semi-major axis Since the orbit is assumed to be circular, the equation is simplified to v = sqrt(mu/r) The value of mu for earth is 3.986004419 Ă— 10^14 m^3/s^2 Now we need to figure out how many seconds one orbit of the space station takes. So 86400 / 15.65 = 5520.767 seconds And the distance the space station travels is 2 pi r, and since velocity is distance divided by time, we get the following as the station's velocity 2 pi r / 5520.767 Finally, combining all that gets us the following equality v = 2 pi r / 5520.767 v = sqrt(mu/r) mu = 3.986004419 Ă— 10^14 m^3/s^2 2 pi r / 5520.767 s = sqrt(3.986004419 * 10^14 m^3/s^2 / r) Square both sides 1.29527 * 10^-6 r^2 s^2 = 3.986004419 * 10^14 m^3/s^2 / r Multiply both sides by r 1.29527 * 10^-6 r^3 s^2 = 3.986004419 * 10^14 m^3/s^2 Divide both sides by 1.29527 * 10^-6 s^2 r^3 = 3.0773498781296 * 10^20 m^3 Take the cube root of both sides r = 6751375.945 m Since we actually want how far from the surface of the earth the space station is, we now subtract the radius of the earth from the radius of the orbit. For this problem, I'll be using the equatorial radius. So 6751375.945 m - 6378137.0 m = 373238.945 m Converting to kilometers and rounding to 4 significant figures gives 373.2 km</span>

The equation for free fall at the surface of a celestial body in outer space​ (s in​ meters, t in​ seconds) is sequals10.04tsqua
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

1.42 s

Explanation:

The equation for free fall of an object starting from rest is generally written as

s=\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

s is the vertical distance covered

a is the acceleration due to gravity

t is the time

On this celestial body, the equation is

s=10.04 t^2

this means that

\frac{1}{2}g = 10.04

so the acceleration of gravity on the body is

g=2\cdot 10.04 = 20.08 m/s^2

The velocity of an object in free fall starting from rest is given by

v=gt

In this case,

g = 20.08 m/s^2

So the time taken to reach a velocity of

v = 28.6 m/s

is

t=\frac{v}{g}=\frac{28.6 m/s}{20.08 m/s^2}=1.42 s

During a tensile test, a metal has a true strain = 0.08 at a true stress = 37,000 lb/in2. Later, at a true stress = 55,000 lb/in
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

The strength coefficient and strain-hardening exponent in the flow curve equation are 92038 and 0.3608.

Explanation:

Given that,

True stress = 37000

True strain = 0.08

Later,

True stress = 55000

True strain = 0.24

Using formula of true stress

\sigma=K\epsilon^n

We need to make a two equation of true stress

Using formula of true stress

37000=K(0.08)^n....(I)

55000=K(0.24)^n....(I)

Dividing equation (II) and (I)

\dfrac{55000}{37000}=\dfrac{(0.24)^n}{(0.08)^n}

1.4865=(\dfrac{0.24}{0.08})^n

1.4865=3^n

Taking ln in both side

ln(1.4865)=n ln(3)

n=\dfrac{ln(1.4865)}{ln(3)}

n=0.3608

We need to calculate the value of strength coefficient

Put the value of n in equation (I)

37000=K(0.08)^(0.3608)

K=\dfrac{37000}{0.08^{0.3608}}

K=92038

Hence, The strength coefficient and strain-hardening exponent in the flow curve equation are 92038 and 0.3608.
