As blood passes through the capillary bed in an organ, the capillaries join to form venules (small veins). If the blood speed in

creases by a factor of 4.00 and the total cross-sectional area of the venules is 10.0cm2, what is the total cross-sectional area of the capillaries feeding these venules?

Answer:

A_2 = 2.5\ cm^2

Explanation:

given,

velocity factor = 4

Cross-sectional area of venules(A₁) = 10 cm²

cross sectional area of capillaries(A_2) = ?

continuity equation = Q = AV

now,

\dfrac{A_1}{A_2} = \dfrac{V_2}{V_1}

\dfrac{10}{A_2} =4

\dfrac{10}{4} =A_2

A_2 = 2.5\ cm^2

hence, the area of capillaries is equal to 2.5 cm₂

A box weighing 52.4 N is sliding on a rough horizontal floor with a constant friction force of magnitude LaTeX: ff. The box's in
german

Answer:

The magnitude of the friction force exerted on the box is 2.614 newtons.

Explanation:

Since the box is sliding on a rough horizontal floor, then it is decelerated solely by friction force due to the contact of the box with floor. The free body diagram of the box is presented herein as attachment. The equation of equilbrium for the box is:

\Sigma F = -f = m\cdot a (Eq. 1)

Where:

f - Kinetic friction force, measured in newtons.

m - Mass of the box, measured in kilograms.

a - Acceleration experimented by the box, measured in meters per square second.

By applying definitions of weight (W = m\cdot g) and uniform accelerated motion (v = v_{o}+a\cdot t), we expand the previous expression:

-f = \left(\frac{W}{g} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{v-v_{o}}{t}\right)

And the magnitude of the friction force exerted on the box is calculated by this formula:

f = -\left(\frac{W}{g} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{v-v_{o}}{t}\right) (Eq. 1b)

Where:

W - Weight, measured in newtons.

g - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

v_{o} - Initial speed, measured in meters per second.

v - Final speed, measured in meters per second.

t - Time, measured in seconds.

If we know that W = 52.4\,N, g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}, v_{o} = 1.37\,\frac{m}{s}, v = 0\,\frac{m}{s} and t = 2.8\,s, the magnitud of the kinetic friction force exerted on the box is:

f = -\left(\frac{52.4\,N}{9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} } \right)\cdot \left(\frac{0\,\frac{m}{s}-1.37\,\frac{m}{s}  }{2.8\,s} \right)

f = 2.614\,N

The magnitude of the friction force exerted on the box is 2.614 newtons.

This force can either push the block upward at a constant velocity or allow it to slide downward at a constant velocity. The mag
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Part a)

F = 135.7 N

Part b)

F = 62.5 N

Explanation:

Part a)

If block is sliding up then net force must be zero and friction will be in opposite to the direction of motion of the block

Fcos\theta = mg + F_f

Fsin\theta = F_n

so we have

Fcos\theta = mg + \mu(Fsin\theta)

F(cos\theta - \mu sin\theta) = mg

F = \frac{mg}{cos\theta - \mu sin\theta}

F = \frac{55}{cos50 - 0.310(sin50)}

F = 135.7 N

Part b)

If block is sliding down then net force must be zero and friction will be in opposite to the direction of motion of the block

Fcos\theta = mg - F_f

Fsin\theta = F_n

so we have

Fcos\theta = mg - \mu(Fsin\theta)

F(cos\theta + \mu sin\theta) = mg

F = \frac{mg}{cos\theta + \mu sin\theta}

F = \frac{55}{cos50 + 0.310(sin50)}

F = 62.5 N

Veseljchak [2.6K]
Given:
F = ax
where
x = distance by which the rubber band is stretched
a =  constant

The work done in stretching the rubber band from x = 0 to x = L is
W=\int_{0}^{L} Fdx = \int_{0}^{L}ax \, dx = \frac{a}{2}  [x^{2} ]_{0}^{L} =  \frac{aL^{2}}{2}

Answer:  \frac{aL^{2}}{2}

A steel ball bearing is released from a height H and
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

ELASTIC collision

kinetic energy is conservate

Explanation:

As the ball bounces to the same height, it can be stated that the impact with the floor is ELASTIC.

As the floor does not move the conservation of the moment

            po = pf

            -mv1 = m v2

- v1 = v2

So the speed with which it descends is equal to the speed with which it rises

Therefore the kinetic energy of the ball before and after the collision is the same

What are (a) the energy of a photon corresponding to wavelength 6.0 nm, (b) the kinetic energy of an electron with de Broglie wa
dlinn [17]

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength = 6.0 nm

de Broglie wavelength = 6.0 nm

(a). We need to calculate the energy of photon

Using formula of energy

E = \dfrac{hc}{\lambda}

E=\dfrac{6.63\times10^{-34}\times3\times10^{8}}{6.0\times10^{-9}}

E=3.315\times10^{-17}\ J

(b).  We need to calculate the kinetic energy of an electron

Using formula of kinetic energy

\lambda=\dfrac{h}{\sqrt{2mE}}

E=\dfrac{h^2}{2m\lambda^2}

Put the value into the formula

E=\dfrac{(6.63\times10^{-34})^2}{2\times9.1\times10^{-31}\times(6.0\times10^{-9})^2}

E=6.709\times10^{-21}\ J

(c). We need to calculate the energy of photon

Using formula of energy

E = \dfrac{hc}{\lambda}

E=\dfrac{6.63\times10^{-34}\times3\times10^{8}}{6.0\times10^{-15}}

E=3.315\times10^{-11}\ J

(d). We need to calculate the kinetic energy of an electron

Using formula of kinetic energy

\lambda=\dfrac{h}{\sqrt{2mE}}

E=\dfrac{h^2}{2m\lambda^2}

Put the value into the formula

E=\dfrac{(6.63\times10^{-34})^2}{2\times9.1\times10^{-31}\times(6.0\times10^{-15})^2}

E=6.709\times10^{-9}\ J

Hence, This is the required solution.
