I would carry a 25 pound box up 5 flights, because it is lighter. You will wear out faster carrying a 50 pound box up 3 flights.

A ball of mass 0.120 kg is dropped from rest from a height of 1.25 m. It rebounds from the floor to reach a height of 0.820 m. W
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

1.0752 kgm/s

Explanation:

Considering when the drop was dropped from rest from a height,

mass of the ball, m = 0.120 kg

height, h = - 1.25 m

the initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

the acceleration due to gravity, g = - 9.8 m/s²

From equation of motion

                            V^{2} = U^{2} + 2gh

Substituting the values,

                             V^{2} = 0^{2} + 2(-9.8 m/s^{2})(-1.25 m)

                             V^{2} = 24.5 m/s

                             V = \sqrt{24.5} \ m/s

                             V = 4.95 \ m/s

                            V = ± 4.95 m/s

                            V = - 4.95 m/s

Since the ball is moving downward, the final velocity of the ball when it hits the floor is  V = - 4.95 m/s  

Considering when the ball rebounds from the floor,

assume the mass of the ball still remain, m = 0.120 kg

height, h = 0.820 m

the final velocity, v = 0 m/s  

the acceleration due to gravity, g = - 9.8 m/s²

From equation of motion

                            V^{2} = U^{2} + 2gh

Substituting the values,

                            0^{2} = U^{2} + 2(-9.8 m/s^{2})(0.820 m)

                            0 = U^{2} - 16.072 m/s

                            U^{2} = 16.072 m/s

                            U = \sqrt{16.072} \ m/s

                           U = ± 4.01 m/s

                          U = + 4.01 m/s

Since the ball is moving upward, the initial velocity of the ball from the bounce from the floor is  U = + 4.01 m/s                        

From Newton's second law of motion, applied force is directly proportional to the rate of change in momentum.

                            F = \frac{mv - mu}{t}

                          F.t = m(v - u)

       ⇒      Impulse = Change in momentum

To calculate the impulse, the moment before the ball hits the ground will be the initial momentum while the moment the ball rebounces will be the final velocity,                        

          ∴          F.t = 0.120  kg(4.01  m/s - (-4.95  m/s) )

                      F.t = 0.120  kg(4.01  m/s + 4.95  m/s) )

                      F.t = 0.120  kg × 8.96  m/s

                      Impulse  = 1.0752 kgm/s

The impulse given to the ball by the floor is 1.0752 kgm/s

A car generator turns at 400 rpm (revolutions per minute) when the engine is idling. It has a rectangular coil with 300 turns of
Sav [38]

The field strength needed to produce a 24.0 V peak emf is 0.73T.

To find the answer, we need to know about the expression of emf.

What's the expression of peak emf produced in a rotating rectangular loops?

  • The peak emf produced in a rotating loops= N×B×A×w
  • N= no. of turns of the loop, B= magnetic field, A= area of loop and w= angular frequency
  • So, B = emf/(N×A×w)
<h3>What's the magnetic field applied to the loop, when rectangular coil with 300 turns of dimensions 5.00 cm by 5.22 cm rotates at 400 rpm produce a 24.0 V peak emf?</h3>
  • N= 300, A= 5cm × 5.22cm = 0.05m × 0.0522m = 0.00261 m²
  • Emf= 24V, w= 2π×400 rpm= 2π×(400rps/60) = 42 rad/s
  • Now, B= 24/(300×0.00261×42)

B= 24/(300×0.00261×42) = 0.73T

Thus, we can conclude that the magnetic field is 0.73T.
