A tetrahedron has an equilateral triangle base with 25.0-cm-long edges and three equilateral triangle sides. The base is paralle

l to the ground, and a vertical uniform electric field of strength 260N/C passes upward through the tetrahedron.
What is the electric flux through the base?

Answer:

-7.03645640575 Nm²/C

2.34548546858 Nm²/C

Explanation:

S = Surface area

Electric flux through the base is given by

\phi_b=-\int Eds\\\Rightarrow \phi_b=-ES\\\Rightarrow \phi_b=-260\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{4}0.25^2\\\Rightarrow \phi_b=-7.03645640575\ Nm^2/C

The electric flux through the base is -7.03645640575 Nm²/C

Inside the tetrahedron there is no charge so total flux will be zero

\phi_b+3\phi_s=0\\\Rightarrow \phi_s=-\dfrac{\phi_b}{3}\\\Rightarrow \phi_s=-\dfrac{-7.03645640575}{3}\\\Rightarrow \phi_s=2.34548546858\ Nm^2/C

The electric flux through the sides is 2.34548546858 Nm²/C

In 2 minutes, a ski lift raises four skiers at a constant speed to a height of 123 m. The average mass of each skier is 71 kg. W
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

The average power  provided by the tension in the cable pulling the lift is = 714 W

Explanation:

Given data

Mass = 71 kg

Change in height = 123 m

When the lift moves in upward direction then in that case kinetic energy is constant & only potential energy changes.

Change in potential energy Δ PE = m g ( h_f - h _ i )

Δ PE = 71 × 9.81 × 123

Δ PE = 85670.73 J

Time = 2 min = 120 sec

So average power is given by

P_{avg} = \frac{Change \ in \ potential \ energy}{Time}

P_{avg} = \frac{85670.73}{120}

P_{avg} = 714 \ W

Therefore the average power  provided by the tension in the cable pulling the lift is = 714 W

What are the differences between glaciers and geysers
liq [111]

A glacier is frozen and a geyser has boiling water coming from it. A glacier is usually still but it sometimes breaks and a geyser erupts. Also geysers are mostly rare and glaciers aren't.

A projectile is launched from ground level with an initial speed of 53.7 m/s. Find the launch angle (the angle the initial veloc
Simora [160]

Answer:\theta =75.52^{\circ}

Explanation:

Given

initial speed of Launch(u)=53.7 m/s

Range of Projectile =Maximum height of Projectile

Range is given by R=\frac{u^2\sin 2\theta }{g}

Maximum height is given by H_{max}=\frac{u^2\sin ^2\theta }{2g}

R=H_{max}

\frac{u^2\sin 2\theta }{g}=\frac{u^2\sin ^2\theta }{2g}

\frac{u^2\sin 2\theta }{g}-\frac{u^2\sin ^2\theta }{2g}=0

\frac{u^2\sin \theta }{g}\cdot \left [ 2\cos \theta -\frac{1}{2}\right ]=0

as u cannot be zero therefore

2\cos \theta -\frac{1}{2}=0

\cos \theta =\frac{1}{4}

\theta =75.52^{\circ}

A ball of mass 0.15 kg is dropped from rest from a height of 1.25 m. It rebounds from the floor to reach a height of 0.960 m. b)
Art [367]

Answer:

Explanation:

If v be the velocity just after the rebound

Kinetic energy will be converted into potential energy

1/2 m v² = mgh

v² = 2gh

v = √ 2gh

= √ 2 x 9.8 x .96

= 4.33 m / s

Iron has a density of 7.9 g/cm3. How much mass is in a 10 cm3 sample of iron?
Stolb23 [73]
7.9 g/cm3 means that iron weighs 7.9 grams per cubic centimeter. Ten cubic centimeters of iron would weigh ten times as much as one cubic centimeter or iron, or 79 grams.<span>
