E20E20: The word “virtual” refers to something that exists in effect but not in actual fact. How does this definition relate to

the virtual image you see of yourself in a plane mirror?

The correct answer (sample response) is:

The image seems to be behind the mirror, but nothing is really there.

Include the following in your response:

The image appears to be behind the mirror.

If someone looks behind the mirror, there is no image there.

Answer:

A plane mirror forms a virtual, erect, same size and laterally inverted image. Virtual means that the image is not real and cannot be obtained on screen. It means the rays appear to meet behind the mirror but when you will actually go behind, you will find nothing. A virtual image is always erect.

A real image is always inverted. It can be obtained on the screen. Rays actually meet at a point.

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

(a) 89 m/s

(b) 11000 N

Explanation:

Note that answers are given to 2 significant figures which is what we have in the values in the question.

(a) Speed is given by the ratio of distance to time. In the question, the time given was the time it took the pulse to travel the length of the cable twice. Thus, the distance travelled is twice the length of the cable.

v=\dfrac{2\times 620 \text{ m}}{14\text{ s}} = \dfrac{1240\text{ m}}{14\text{ s}}=88.571428\ldots \text{ m/s}= 89\text{ m/s}

(b) The tension, T, is given by

v =\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu}}

where v is the speed, T is the tension and \mu is the mass per unit length.

Hence,

T = \mu\cdot v^{2}

To determine \mu, we need to know the mass of the cable. We use the density formula:

\rho = \dfrac{m}{V}

where m is the mass and V is the volume.

m=\rho\cdot V

If the length is denoted by l, then

\mu = \dfrac{m}{l} = \dfrac{\rho\cdot V}{l}

T = \dfrac{\rho\cdot V}{l} v^{2}

The density of steel = 8050 kg/m3

The cable is approximately a cylinder with diameter 1.5 cm and length or height of 620 m. Its volume is

V = \pi \dfrac{d^{2}}{4} l

T = \dfrac{\rho\cdot\pi d^2 l}{4l}v^2 = \dfrac{\rho\cdot\pi d^2}{4}v^2

T = \dfrac{8050\times\pi\times0.015^2}{4} \times 88.57^2

T = 11159.4186\ldots \text{ N} = 11000 \text{ N}

5) Find the initial velocity for a 700 kg car that
Serhud [2]

Answer:

Δv = 12 m/s, but we are not given the direction, so there are really an infinite number of potential solutions.

Maximum initial speed is 40.6 m/s

Minimum initial speed is 16.6 m/s

Explanation:

Assume this is a NET impulse so we can ignore friction.

An impulse results in a change of momentum

The impulse applied was

p = Ft = 1400(6.0) = 8400 N•s

p = mΔv

Δv = 8400 / 700 = 12 m/s

If the impulse was applied in the direction the car was already moving, the initial velocity was

vi = 28.6 - 12 = 16.6 m/s

if the impulse was applied in the direction opposite of the original velocity, the initial velocity was

vi = 28.6 + 12 = 40.6 m/s

Other angles of Net force would result in various initial velocities.

Two disks of identical mass but different radii (r and 2r) are spinning on frictionless bearings at the same angular speed ?0, b
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

Moment of inertia of a disc = 1/2 M R²

Since mass is same for both and radius are r and 2r, their moment of inertia can be in the ratio of 1: 4 . Let them be I and 4I . Angular speed are ω₀ and   - ω₀ .

We shall apply law of conservation of angular momentum .

initial total angular momentum

I x ω₀ - 4I x ω₀ = - 3Iω₀

Let final common angular momentum be ω

total final angular momentum = ( I + 4I ) ω

Applying law of conservation of angular momentum

( I + 4I ) ω =  - 3Iω₀

ω = - 3 / 5 ω₀ .

b )

Initial total rotational K E

= 1/2 I ω₀² + 1/2 4I ω₀²

= 1/2 x5I ω₀²

Final total rotational K E

= 1/2 ( I + 4I ) ( - 3 / 5 ω₀ )²

= 1/2 x 9 / 5 I ω₀²

= 9 / 10I ω₀²

change in rotational kinetic energy = 9 / 10I ω₀² - 1/2 x5I ω₀²

(9/10 - 5/2) xI ω₀²

=( .9 - 2.5 )I ω₀²

= - 1.6 I ω₀² Ans

A parallel-plate capacitor is connected to a battery and becomes fully charged. The capacitor is then disconnected, and the sepa
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

Increases

Explanation:

The expression for the capacitance is as follows as;

C=\frac{\epsilon _{0}A}{d}

Here, C is the capacitance, \epsilon _{0} is the permittivity of free space, A is the area and d is the distance between the parallel plate capacitor.

It can be concluded from the above expression, the capacitance is inversely proportional to the distance. According to the given problem, the capacitor is disconnected from the battery and the distance between the plates is increased. Then, the capacitance of the given capacitor will decrease in this case.

The expression for the energy stored in the parallel plate capacitor is as follows;

E=\frac{Q^{2}}{2C}

Here, E is the energy stored in the capacitor, C is the capacitance and Q is the charge.

Energy stored in the given capacitor is inversely proportional to the capacitor. The charge on the capacitor is constant. In the given problem, as the distance between the parallel plates is being separated, the energy stored in this capacitor increases.

Therefore, the option (c) is correct.

When you push a 2.00 kg book resting on a tabletop it takes 4.60 N to start the book sliding. What is the coefficient of static
natali 33 [55]

The coefficient of static friction is 0.234.

Answer:

Explanation:

Frictional force is equal to the product of coefficient of friction and normal force acting on any object.

So here the mass of the object is given as 2 kg, so the normal force will be acting under the influence of acceleration due to gravity.

Normal force = mass * acceleration due to gravity

Normal force = 2 * 9.8 = 19.6 N.

And the frictional force is given as 4.6 N, then

Coefficient of static friction = Frictional force/Normal force

Coefficient of static friction = 4.6 N / 19.6 N = 0.234

So the coefficient of static friction is 0.234.
