A steel safe with mass M falls onto a concrete floor. Just before hitting the floor, its speed is vi . It hits the floor without

rebounding, and ends up being d shorter than before. Find the magnitude of the (average) force exerted by the floor on the safe while it is being deformed. You can assume this force is a constant during the short time it takes for the safe to deform. Ignore the effects of gravity.

Answer:

Explanation:

initial velocity, u = vi

final velocity, v = 0

distance = d

mass of safe = M

Use third equation of motion

v² = u² + 2as

0 = vi² - 2 ad

a = vi²/2d

Force, F = mass x acceleration

F = M x vi²/2d

F = Mvi²/2d

A magnetic force can act on an electron even when it A) is at rest B) moves parallel to magnetic field lines C) both of these D)
Kobotan [32]

Answer: A)

Explanation: when an electron is placed in a magnetic field, it experiences a force.

This force is given below as

F=qvB*sinθ

F = force experienced by charge.

q = magnitude of electronic charge

v = speed of electron

B= strength of magnetic field

θ = angle between magnetic field and velocity.

What defines the force exerted on the charge is the angle between the field and it velocity.

If magnetic field is parallel to velocity, then it means that θ=0° which means sin 0 = 0, which means

F = qvB * 0 = 0.

The charge being at rest has nothing to do with the angle between magnetic field strength and velocity.

As a quality test of ball bearings, you drop bearings (small metal balls), with zero initial velocity, from a height of 1.94 m i
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

The average acceleration of the bearings is 0.77\times10^{3}\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Height = 1.94  m

Bounced height = 1.48 m

Time interval t=14.86\times10^{-3}\ s

Velocity of the ball bearing just before hitting the steel plate

We need to calculate the velocity

Using conservation of energy

mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

Put the value into the formula

9.8\times1.94=\dfrac{1}{2}\times v^2

v=\sqrt{2\times9.8\times1.94}

v=6.166\ m/s

Negative as it is directed downwards

After bounce back,

We need to calculate the velocity

Using conservation of energy

mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2'

Put the value into the formula

9.8\times1.48=\dfrac{1}{2}\times v^2'

v'=\sqrt{2\times9.8\times1.48}

v'=5.38\ m/s

We need to calculate the average acceleration of the bearings while they are in contact with the plate

Using formula of acceleration

a=\dfrac{v-v'}{t}

Put the value into the formula

a=\dfrac{5.38-(-6.166)}{14.86\times10^{-3}}

a=776.98\ m/s^2

a=0.77\times10^{3}\ m/s^2

Hence,The average acceleration of the bearings is 0.77\times10^{3}\ m/s^2

Dmitriy789 [7]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>A) Increase the voltage by adding a bigger battery </u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

According to Ohm's law

V = IR

where V is voltage, I is current and R is the resistance. If we write the equation for resistance we would get

R= V / I

Here we can see that Voltage is directly proportional to Resistance so in order to keep the balance if we increase the resistance then we must increase the voltage to keep the current constant.
