(10. Five pupils have a mean mass of 51 kg.

Physics
1 answer:
sveticcg [70]3 years ago
3 0

Explanation:

If the fourth pupil has a mass of x, and the fifth pupil has a mass of x+5, then the mean mass is:

51 = (49 + 53 + 52 + x + x+5) / 5

255 = 159 + 2x

x = 48

x + 5 = 53

The fourth pupil has a mass of 48 kg.

The fifth pupil has a mass of 53 kg.

An object slides on a level surface in the +x direction. It slows and comes to a stop with a constant acceleration of -2.45 m/s2
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

uk = 0.25

Explanation:

Given:-

- An object comes to stop with acceleration, a = -2.45 m/s^2

Find:-

What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the object and the floor?

Solution:-

- Assuming the object has mass (m) that slides over a rough surface with coefficient of kinetic friction (uk). There is only Frictional force (Ff) acting in the horizontal axis on the object opposing the motion (-x direction).

- We will apply equilibrium equation on the object in vertical direction.

                               N - m*g = 0

                               N = m*g

Where,  N : Contact force exerted by the surface on the floor

             g : Gravitational acceleration constant = 9.81 m/s^2

- Now apply Newton's second law of motion in the horizontal ( x-direction ):

                             - Ff = m*a

- The frictional force is related to contact force (N) by the following expression:

                              Ff = uk*N

- Substitute the 1st and 3rd expressions in the 2nd equation:

                             uk*m*g = -m*a

                             uk = a / g

- Plug in the values and solve for uk:

                             uk = - (-2.45) / 9.81

                             uk = 0.25

A child wants to pump up a bicycle tire so that its pressure is 1.2 × 105 pa above that of atmospheric pressure. if the child us
WINSTONCH [101]
General expression is;
Pressure = Force/Area
In which,
Pressure = Required pressure + Atmospheric pressure = (1.2*10^5) + (101325) = 221325 Pa = 221325 N/m^2

Area = πD^2/4 = π*0.035^2/4 = 9.621*10^-4 m^2

Therefore,
Force, F = Pressure*Area = 221325*9.621*10^-4 = 212.94 N

Why is permeable soil best for plants that need a lot of drainage? Water fills this type of soil. Water dries up in this type of
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

Water flows through this type of soil.

Explanation:

By definition permeable soil is soil which water and other fluid flow easily through (like sand) If a plant needs drainage the soil will need to flow through the soil easily.

Rutherford discovered the nucleus of the atom by firing a particles at gold foil. An a particle has a charge of q = +2e and a ma
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:r_0=3.037\times 10^{-14}m

Explanation:

Given

charge on alpha particle=+2e

mass of alpha particle=6.64\times 10^{-27} kg

Charge on gold nucleus=+79e

Velocity at r=1m is 1.9\times 10^{7}

Using Energy conservation

Kinetic energy of particle will be converting to Potential energy as it approaches to nucleus

therefore

\frac{1}{2}mv^2+U_{r=1m}=U_{closest\ to\ nucleus}

\frac{1}{2}\left ( 6.64\times 10^{-27}\right )\left ( 1.9\times 10^{7}^2\right )+\frac{K\left ( 2e\right )\left ( 79e\right )}{1}=\frac{K\left ( 2e\right )\left ( 79e\right )}{r_0}

\frac{1}{2}\left ( 6.64\times 10^{-27}\right )\left ( 1.9\times 10^{7}^2\right )=\frac{9\times 10^9\times 158\times \left ( 1.6\times 10^{-19}\right )}{y}\left [\frac{1}{r_0}-\frac{1}{1}\right ]

on solving we get

\frac{1}{r_0}=3.292\times 10^{13}

r_0=3.037\times 10^{-14}m
