Megan tries to open a door, but she is unable to push at a right angle to the door. So, she pushes the door at an angle of 55º f

rom the perpendicular. How much harder would she have to push to open the door just as fast as if she were to push it at 90º

Let say torque required to open the door when force is applied at 90 degree is given by T

\tau = \vec r \times \vec F

\tau = rFsin\theta

\tau = rFsin90 = rF

now if she is not able to apply force perpendicular but she can apply some harder force to open the door at 55 degree from perpendicular

now we can say

\tau = rF'sin\theta

\tau = rF' sin(90 - 55)

now we know that it requires same torque in order to open the door

so we will use the equation

rF = rF'sin35

F' = \frac{F}{sin35} = 1.74 F

so it requires 1.74 times more force in this case

The total electric flux from a cubical box 26.0 cm on a side is 1840 N m2/C. What charge is enclosed by the box?
vitfil [10]

The expression of the electric flux is

\Phi = \frac{Q}{\epsilon_0}

Here,

Q = Total charge enclosed in the closed surface

\epsilon_0 = Permittivity due to free space

Rearranging to find the charge,

Q = \epsilon_0 \Phi

Replacing with our values we have finally

Q = (8.85*10^{-12}F\cdot m^{-1})(1.84*10^3 N\cdot m^2/C)

Q = 1.6284*10^{-8} C (\frac{10^9nC}{1C})

Q = 0.1684nC

The charge enclosed by the box is 0.1684nC

The sign of the charge can be decided by using the direction of the flux. The charge enclosed by the cube can be calculated by using the electric flux and the permitivity of free space.

A ball is thrown down vertically with an initial speed of 31 ft/s from a height of 40 ft. (a) What is its speed just before it s
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

a. 41.96ft/s

b. 1.096s

Explanation:

a. v²=u²+2gs

v²=31²+2×10×40

V=41.96ft/s

b. t=(v-u) /g

t=(41.96-31)/10

t=1.096s

contractor will use a package emulsion having a specific gravity of 1.25 and relative bulk strength of 130 to open an excavation
tester [92]

Answer:

The burden distance is 7 ft

Solution:

As per the question:

Specific gravity of package emulsion, SG_{E} = 1.25

Specific gravity of diabase rock, SG_{R} = 2.76

Diameter of the packaged sticks, d = 3 in

Now,

To calculate the first trail shot burden distance, B:

B = [\frac{2SG_{E}}{SG_{R}} + 1.5]\times d

B = [\frac{2\times 1.25}{2.76} + 1.5]\times 3 = 7.22

B = 7 ft

When a wire moves through a magnetic field, an electric current is produced in the wire. Why does this phenomenon occur?
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

<h2>It occurs whenever a magnetic field and an electric conductor move relative to one another so the conductor crosses lines of force in the magnetic field. </h2>

Explanation:

<h3>The current produced by electromagnetic induction is greater when the magnet or coil moves faster, the coil has more turns, or the magnet is stronger.</h3>
