Question 18

Physics
1 answer:
Sedaia [141]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

5.5 kg

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy of an object is given by

U=mgh

where

m is its mass

g is the acceleration of gravity

h is the height of the object above the ground

For the rock in the problem, we know:

h = 12 m is the height above the ground

U = 650 J

g = 9.8 m/s^2

Therefore, we can solve the equation for m, the mass of the rock:

m=\frac{U}{gh}=\frac{650}{(9.8)(12)}=5.5 kg

A rocket on Earth experiences an upward applied force from its thrusters. As a result of this force, the rocket accelerates upwa
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

F=m(11.8m/s²)

For example, if m=10,000kg, F=118,000N.

Explanation:

There are only two vertical forces acting on the rocket: the force applied from its thrusters F, and its weight mg. So, we can write the equation of motion of the rocket as:

F-mg=ma

Solving for the force F, we obtain that:

F=ma+mg=m(a+g)

Since we know the values for a (2m/s²) and g (9.8m/s²), we have that:

F= m(2m/s^{2}+9.8m/s^{2})\\\\F=m(11.8m/s^{2})

From this relationship, we can calculate some possible values for F and m. For example, if m=10,000kg, we can obtain F:

F=(10,000kg)(11.8m/s^{2})\\\\F=118,000N

In this case, the force from the rocket's thrusters is equal to 118,000N.

A ball is projected upward at time t = 0.0 s, from a point on a roof 60 m above the ground. The ball rises, then falls until it
musickatia [10]
<span> y=y0 + vt +1/2gt^2
(solve for t here) cause you know y,y0,v,g
you will do quad formula here

then:
v=v0 +at solve for v
(remember the direction of the ball too (signs))

The main thing to remember here is that when the ball passes exactly (height) where it was launched it will travel the speed at which it was launched. *its almost like the ball was thrown in the downward direction. </span>

A cubical surface surrounds a point charge q . Describe what happens to the total flux through the surface if (c) the surface is
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Gauss law states that the electric flux is defined as the electric field multiplied by the area of the surface in a plane perpendicular to the field.

Explanation:

Mathematically,

Φ=Q ϵo

Where;

Q is enclosed charge

ϵo is the permittivity of the free space

According to Gauss law, which states that the electric flux is defined as the electric field multiplied by the area of the surface in a plane perpendicular to the field.

Φ=Q ϵo

Where;

Q is enclosed charge

ϵo is the permittivity of the free space

If the cube is transformed into a sphere the total flux in the electric field remains unchanged or remains the same. This is because the gaussian law does not postulate that electric flux is dependent on the object in a plane. Hence, the transformation of the cube to a sphere does not affect the electric flux generated in the field.

A spring with spring constant 33N/m is attached to the ceiling, and a 4.8-cm-diameter, 1.5kg metal cylinder is attached to its l
mylen [45]

Answer:

0.423m

Explanation:

Conversion to metric unit

d = 4.8 cm = 0.048m

Let water density be \who_w = 1000 kg/m^3

Let gravitational acceleration g = 9.8 m/s2

Let x (m) be the length that the spring is stretched in equilibrium, x is also the length of the cylinder that is submerged in water since originally at a non-stretching position, the cylinder barely touches the water surface.

Now that the system is in equilibrium, the spring force and buoyancy force must equal to the gravity force of the cylinder. We have the following force equation:

F_s + F_b = W

Where F_s = kxN is the spring force, F_b = W_w = m_wg = \rho_w V_s g is the buoyancy force, which equals to the weight W_w of the water displaced by the submerged portion of the cylinder, which is the product of water density \rho_w, submerged volume V_s and gravitational constant g. W = mg is the weight of the metal cylinder.

kx + \rho_w V_s g = mg

The submerged volume would be the product of cross-section area and the submerged length x

V_s = Ax = \pi(d/2)^2x

Plug that into our force equation and we have

kx + \rho_w \pi(d/2)^2x g = mg

x(k + \rho_w g \pi d^2/4) = mg

x = \frac{m}{(k/g) + (\rho_w\pi d^2/4)} = \frac{1.5}{(33/9.8) + (100*\pi * 0.048^2/4)} = 0.423 m
