A vice pushes on a system of three boards, each oriented vertically and held up by horizontal forces. The outer boards weigh 90

N and the inner board weighs 118 N. The coefficient of friction between the inner and the outer boards is 0.67. What is the magnitude of one of the compression forces acting on either side of the inner board?

Answer:

88.1 N

Explanation:

As shown in the free body diagram attached to the question, the only forces acting on the inner block include in the required vertical direction.

- Its Weight.

- Frictional forces as a result of the Two compression forces.

If the block is not to slip off, the weights must match the two frictional forces

Let the compressive forces be F and frictional force be Fr

Fr = μ F

Sum of force acting on the inner block in the y-direction

Fr + Fr - W = 0

μ F + μ F = mg

2 μF = 118

2(0.67) F = 118

F = 118/1.34

F = 88.1 N

Each of the compression forces is 88.1 N

Hope this Helps!!!

Ejection of Electrons from Hydrogen by Incident Photons Light of wavelength 80 nm is incident on a sample of hydrogen gas, resul
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

a)   K_{max} = 1.9 eV = 3.04 10⁻¹⁹ J,b ) This means that some electrons are at the first excited level of the hydrogen atom, which is highly likely as the temperature rises.

Explanation:

a) To calculate the maximum kinetic energy of the expelled electrons let's use the relationships of the photoelectric effect

      K_{max}= h f - Φ

Where K is the kinetic energy, h the Planck constant that is worth 6.63 10⁻³⁴ Js, f the frequency and Φ the work function

The speed of light is related to wavelength and frequency

     c = λ f

Let's analyze the work function, it is the energy needed to start an electron from a metal, in this case to start an electron from a hydrogen atom its fundamental energy is needed, so

     Φ= E₀ = 13.6 eV

let's replace and calculate the energy of the incident photon

     E = h c / λ

     E = 6.63 10⁻³⁴ 3 10⁸/80 10⁻⁹

     E = 2,486 10⁻¹⁸ J

Let's reduce to eV

     E = 2,486 10⁻¹⁸ (1 eV / 1.6 10⁻¹⁹)

     E = 15.5 eV

Now we can calculate the kinetic energy

     K_{max}= h c / f - fi

      K_{max} = 15.5 -13.6

     K_{max} = 1.9 eV

b)     Extra energy = 10.2 eV

The total kinetic energy of electrons is

       Total kinetic energy = 1.9 +10.2 = 12.1 eV

For the calculation we are assuming that all the electors are in the hydrogen base state, but for temperatures greater than 0K some electors may be in some excited state, so less energy is needed to tear them out of hydrogen atom.

Let's analyze this possibility

      ΔE = E photon - Total kinetic energy electron

      ΔE = 15.5 - 12.1

      ΔE = 3.4 eV

If we use the Bohr ratio for the hydrogen atom

     E_{n} = 13.606 / n2

     n = √ 13.606 / En

     n = √ (13606 / 3.4)

     n = 2

This means that some electrons are at the first excited level of the hydrogen atom, which is highly likely as the temperature rises.

You found the distance that you will cover while braking. You can use the expected amount of time for braking to check your answ
katrin [286]

Answer:

Explanation:

First we need to determine the distance covered during deceleration. According to the equation of motion.

S = ut+1/2at²

Given:

u = 20m/s

t = 0.50s

a = -10m/s (deceleration is negative acceleration)

S = 20²+1/2(-10)(0.5)²

S = 400-5(0.5)²

S = 400-5(0.25)

S = 400-1.25

S = 398.75m

If the deer steps onto the road 35m in front of you, the distance between you and the deer when you come to a stop will be 398.75-35 = 363.75m

A mass of 148 g stretches a spring 13 cm. The mass is set in motion from its equlibrium position with a downward velocity of 10
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

u(t)=1.15 \sin (8.68t)cm

0.3619sec

Explanation:

Given that

Mass,m=148 g

Length,L=13 cm

Velocity,u'(0)=10 cm/s

We have to find the position u of the mass at any time t

We know that

\omega_0=\sqrt{\frac{g}{L}}\\\\=\sqrt{\frac{980}{13}}\\\\=8.68 rad/s

Where g=980 cm/s^2

u(t)=Acos8.68 t+Bsin 8.68t

u(0)=0

Substitute the value

A=0\\u'(t)=-8.68Asin8.68t+8.68 Bcos8.86 t

Substitute u'(0)=10

8.68B=10

B=\frac{10}{8.68}=1.15

Substitute the values

u(t)=1.15 \sin (8.68t)cm

Period =T = 2π/8.68

After half period

π/8.68 it returns to equilibruim

π/8.68 = 0.3619sec

Jane has a mass of 55 kg and his body covers 700 nails with a surface area of 1.00 mm,
Oksana_A [137]

We have,

  • Jane mass is 55 kg
  • His body covered with 700 nails all of them having a surface area of 1.00 mm² each = 700 × 1 = 700 mm² = 700/1000000 = 7/10000

We know that,

  • Pressure = Force/Area

Let's calculate force as we already have area;

  • F = ma
  • F = 55 × 9.8 { Acceleration due to gravity }
  • F = 539 N

Now, if should she would be on 700 nails then pressure will be;

  • P = F/A
  • P = 539/7 × 10000
  • P = 5390000/7
  • P = 770,000 Pascal

And if should would be on a 1 nail only,

  • P = F/A
  • P = 539/1 × 1000000
  • P = 539000000 Pascal
