As you increase the number of supporting strings, what happens to the force needed to lift the bottom block

1 answer:

8 0

The weight is spread across multiple different strings, allowing for each string to require dealing with a large amount of stress, because the stress is evenly distributed throughout each string. hope i helped :3

A) An automobile light has a 1.0-A current when it is connected to a 12-V battery. Determine the resistance of the light.

kirill [66]

Answer:

The resistance in first case is 12 Ω, power delivered is 12 W, and potential difference is 0.01 V

Explanation:

Given:

(A)

Current $I = 1$ A

Voltage $V = 12$ V

For finding the resistance,

$V = IR$

$R = \frac{V}{I}$

$R = \frac{12}{1}$

$R =$ 12Ω

(B)

For finding power delivered,

$P = I^{2} R$

$P = (1) ^{2} \times 12$

$P = 12$ Watt

(C)

For finding the potential difference,

$V = IR$

$V = 5 \times 10^{-3} \times 2$

$V = 10 \times 10^{-3}$

$V = 0.01$ V

Therefore, the resistance in first case is 12 Ω, power delivered is 12 W, and potential difference is 0.01 V

how do you find work when only given the angle a sled is pulled, the mass, the coefficent of kinetic friction and distance

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

W = F * s

Work done equals applied force * distance traveled

Apparent weight = M g (1 - sin θ) since some of applied force will lighten sled

μ = coefficient of kinetic friction

F cos θ = force applied to motion of sled

s = distance traveled

[μ M g (1 - sin θ)] cos θ * s = work done in moving sled

Note that F = μ M g if applied force is in the horizontal direction

A 1.30-m string of weight 0.0125 N is tied to the ceiling at its upper end, and the lower end supports a weight W. Neglect the v

atroni [7]

Answer:

1. t = 0.0819s

2. W = 0.25N

3. n = 36

4. y(x , t)= Acos[172x + 2730t]

Explanation:

1) The given equation is

$y(x, t) = Acos(kx -wt)$

The relationship between velocity and propagation constant is

$v = \frac{\omega}{k}=\frac{2730rad/sec}{172rad/m}\\\\$

v = 15.87m/s

Time taken, $t = \frac{\lambda}{v}$

$= \frac{1.3}{15.87}\\\\=0.0819 sec$

t = 0.0819s

The velocity of transverse wave is given by

$v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}$

$v = \sqrt{\frac{W}{\frac{m}{\lambda}}}$

mass of string is calculated thus

mg = 0.0125N

$m = \frac{0.0125N}{9.8N/s}$

m = 0.00128kg

$\omega = \frac{v^2m}{\lambda}$

$\omega = \frac{(15.87^2)(0.00128)}{1.30}$

$\omega =$ 0.25N

The propagation constant k is

$k=\frac{2\pi}{\lambda}$

hence

$\lambda = \frac{2\pi}{k}\\\\\lambda = \frac{2 \times 3.142}{172}$

$\lambda =$ 0.036 m

No of wavelengths, n is

$n = \frac{L}{\lambda}\\\\n = \frac{1.30m}{0.036m}\\$

n = 36

The equation of wave travelling down the string is

$y(x, t)=Acos[kx -wt]\\\\becomes\\\\y(x , t)= Acos[(172 rad.m)x + (2730 rad.s)t]$

$without, unit\\\\y(x , t)= Acos[172x + 2730t]$

Two ping pong balls have been painted with metallic paint and charged by contact with an Van de Graaff generator. The charge on

andre [41]

Answer:

0.035 N

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Charge q1 = -3.31x10^(-7) C

Charge q2 = -5.7x10^(-7) C.

Distance between them, R = 22 cm = 0.22 m

Electrostatic force between to particles is given as:

F = (k* q1 * q2) / R²

F = (9 * 10^9 * -3.31 * 10^(-7) * -5.7 * 10^(-7)) / 0.22²

F = 0.035 N
