In a downtown office building, you notice each of the four sections of a rotating door has a mass of 75 kg. What is the width, i

n meters, of each section of the door if a force of 56 N applied to the outer edge of a section produces an angular acceleration of 0.420 rad/s2?

Answer:

each door has a width of 2.666 meters

Explanation:

from Newton's second law applied to rotational motion:

ζ = I α

where ζ= torque , I = moment of inertia , α = angular acceleration

the moment of inertia for a flat plate around its central axis is

I = 1/12 m a² , where m= mass, a= total width = 2L

therefore the moment of inercia for a flat plate with length 2L ( 2 doors, one in each side of the central axis) is

I1 = 1/12 m (2L)² = 1/3 m L²

if we have 4 doors , that is 2 flat plates with length of 2L perpendicular to each other:

I = Ix + Iy = 2*I1 = 2/3 m L²

thus

ζ = I α

4* F * L = 2/3 * (4*m) L² * α

L = 3/2* F/ ( m*α) = 3/2* 56 N / ( 75 Kg * 0.420 rad/seg²) = 2.666 m

Based on this electric field diagram, which statement best compares the charge of A with B?
lilavasa [31]

Based on this electric field diagram, the statement which best compares the charge of A with B is "A is negatively charged and B is positively charged. The charge on A is greater than that on B".

<u>Answer:</u> Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

The charge is quantized represented as elementary charge, about 1.602×10−19 coulombs. Their are two kinds of electric charging: positive and negative (usually transported, separately, by protons and electrons). Like charges repel each other, while attraction occurs among unlike charges. An entity without net charge is considered neutral. If a piece of matter comprises more electrons than protons, it has a negative charge, when there are fewer, it'll have a positive charge and when there are equal amounts, this will be neutral.

A parallel-plate capacitor is connected to a battery. After it becomes charged, the capacitor is disconnected from the battery a
Inessa [10]

Answer:

The potential difference between the plates increases

Explanation:

As we know that the capacitance of the capacitor is given by:

q = CV         (1)

where

q = charge

C = capacitance

V = Voltage or Potential Difference

Also, the capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor is given as:

C = \frac{\epsilon_{o}A}{D}           (2)

where

\epsilon_{o} = permittivity of free space or vacuum

A = Area of the plates

D = Separation distance between the plates

Now, from eqn (1) and (2):

V = \frac{qD}{A\epsilon_{o}}

Now, from the above eqn  we can say that:

Potential difference depends directly on the separation distance between the plates of the capacitor and is inversely dependent on the area of the plates of the capacitor.

Therefore, after disconnecting, if the separation between the plates is increased the potential difference across it also increases.

Q = cmAT
castortr0y [4]

Answer: Q=3000 cal

Explanation:

We are given the following formula:

Q=m. c. \Delta T   (1)

Where:

Q=3000 cal is the amount of heat

m=300g  is the mass  of water

c=1 cal/g \°C  is the specific heat of water

\Delta T  is the variation in temperature, which in this case is  \Delta T=30\°C-20\°C=10\°C  

Rewriting equation (1) with the known values at the right side, we will prove the result is 3000 cal:

Q=(300g)(1 cal/g \°C)(10\°C)   (2)

Q=3000 cal   This is the result
