Answer:

The momentum of the 5-kilogram fish is greater than the momentum of the 2-kilogram fish

Explanation:

The momentum of each fish can be calculated as follows:

p=mv

where

m is the mass of the fish

v is the velocity of the fish

- For the first fish, we have:

p=mv=(5 kg)(10 m/s)=50 kg m/s

- For the second fish:

p=mv=(2 kg)(10 m/s)=20 kg m/s

Therefore, the momentum of the first fish is greater than the second fish.

A force of 20.0 N is applied to a 3.00 kg object for 4.00 seconds. Calculate the impulse experienced by the object.​
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Impulse = 80Ns

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 3kg

Force = 20N

Time = 4 seconds

To find the impulse experienced by the object;

Impulse = force * time

Impulse = 20*4

Impulse = 80Ns

Therefore, the impulse experienced by the object is 80 Newton-seconds.

A power plant running at 39 % efficiency generates 330 MW of electric power. Part A At what rate (in MW) is heat energy exhauste
marusya05 [52]

516.154 megawatts of heat are <em>exhausted</em> to the river that cools the plant.

By definition of energy efficiency, we derive an expression for the energy rate exhausted to the river (Q_{out}), in megawatts:

Q_{out} = Q_{in} - W

Q_{out} = \left(\frac{1}{\eta}-1 \right)\cdot W(1)

Where:

  • \eta - Efficiency.
  • W - Electric power, in megawatts.

If we know that \eta = 0.39 and W = 330\,MW, then the energy rate exhausted to the river is:

Q_{out} = \left(\frac{1}{0.39}-1 \right)\cdot (330\,MW)

Q_{out} = 516.154\,MW

516.154 megawatts of heat are <em>exhausted</em> to the river that cools the plant.

A capacitor consists of two square plates, 8.7 cm on a side, separated by a 2.0 mm air gap. How much energy would be stored in t
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

122.84 J

Explanation:

Since plate is square, area, A is given by (8.7/100)^{2}=0.007569m^{2}

The distance between plates, d, is given in the question as 2mm=0.002m

Charge on plate, Q, as given in the question is 240 \mu c

Assuming mica dielectric constant, k of 7

Capacitance, C is given by

C=\frac {k\epsilon_{o}A}{d}=\frac {(7)(8.85*10^{-12})(0.007569)}{0.002}=2.34*10*^{-10}F

Stored energy, E is given by

E=\frac {Q^{2}}{2C}=\frac {(240*10^{-6})^{2}}{2*(2.34*10^{-10})}=122.84J

Therefore, the stored energy is 122.84 J

A person is nearsighted with a far point of 75.0 cm. a. What focal length contact lens is needed to give him normal vision
BigorU [14]

Complete Question

The  complete question is  shown on the first uploaded image  

Answer:

a

  f=  -75 \ cm =  - 0.75 \ m

b

  P  =  -1.33 \ diopters

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  image distance is  d_i =  -75 cm

The value of the image is negative because it is on the same side with the corrective glasses

    The  object distance is  d_o =  \infty

The  reason object distance  is because the object father than it being picture by the eye

General focal length is mathematically represented as

              \frac{1}{f}  =  \frac{1}{d_i}  -   \frac{1}{d_o}

substituting values

             \frac{1}{f}  =  \frac{1}{-75}  -   \frac{1}{\infty}

=>         f=  -75 \ cm =  - 0.75 \ m

Generally the power of the corrective lens is  mathematically represented as

        P  =  \frac{1}{f}

substituting values

       P  =  \frac{1}{-0.75}

        P  =  -1.33 \ diopters

A standing wave pattern is created on a string with mass density μ = 3.4 × 10-4 kg/m. A wave generator with frequency f = 61 Hz
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

1) λ = 0.413 m , 2)v = 25,213 m / s , 3)  T = 0.216 N , 4) m = 22.04 10-3 kg

Explanation:

1) The resonance occurs when the traveling wave bounces at the ends and the two waves are added, the ends as they are fixed have a node, the wavelength and the length of the string are related

         λ = 2L / n               n = 1, 2, 3 ...

In this case L = 0.62 m and n = 3

Let's calculate

        λ = 2 0.62 / 3

        λ = 0.413 m

2) the velocity related to wavelength and frequency

      v =  λ f

      v = 0.413 61

      v = 25,213 m / s

3) let's use the equation

     v = √T /μ

     T = v² μ

     T = 25,213² 3.4 10⁻⁴

     T = 0.216 N

4) the rope tension is proportional to the hanging weight

      T-W = 0

     T = W

    W = m g

    m = W / g

    m = 0.216 / 9.8

    m = 22.04 10-3 kg

5) n = 2

     λ = 2 0.62 / 2

     λ = 0.62 m

6) v =  λ f

     v = 0.62 61

     v = 37.82 m / s

7) T = v² μ

   T = 37.82² 3.4 10⁻⁴

   T = 0.486 N

8) m = W / g

   m = 0.486 / 9.8

   m = 49.62 10⁻³ kg

9) n = 1

    λ = 2 0.62

    λ = 1.24 m

    v = 1.24 61

    v = 75.64 m / s

    T = v² miu

    T = 75.64² 3.4 10⁻⁴

    T = 2.572 10⁻² N

    m = 2.572 10⁻² / 9.8

    m = 262.4 10⁻³ kg
