Each of 100 identical blocks sitting on a frictionless surface is connected to the next block by a massless string. The first bl

ock is pulled with a force of 100 N. What is the tension in the string connecting block 100 to block 99? What is the tension in the string connecting block 50 to block 51?

Answer:

The tension in the string connecting block 50 to block 51 is 50 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Number of block = 100

Force = 100 N

let m be the mass of each block.

We need to calculate the net force acting on the 100th block

Using second law of newton

F=ma

100=100m\times a

ma=1\ N

We need to calculate the tension in the string between blocks 99 and 100

Using formula of force

F_{100-99}=ma

F_{100-99}=1

We need to calculate the total number of masses attached to the string

Using formula for mass

m'=(100-50)m

m'=50m

We need to calculate the tension in the string connecting block 50 to block 51

Using formula of tension

F_{50}=m'a

Put the value into the formula

F_{50}=50m\times a

F_{50}=50\times1

F_{50}=50\ N

Hence, The tension in the string connecting block 50 to block 51 is 50 N.

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Abiotic - sun Biotic- Plants

Water supply, climate, shape of the land, vegetation, soils and availability of natural resources.

Explanation:

Abiotic means non living so the sun is non living. The sun gives us warmth and the ability to survive

Biotic means alive or living- plants are living and give off oxygen and take in carbon to help us live  umm ok

At a particular instant, a proton at the origin has velocity &lt; 5e4, -2e4, 0&gt; m/s. You need to calculate the magnetic field
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

9.7\times 10^{-5} T

Explanation:

Velocity =5\times 10^4i-2\times 10^4j

r=0.03i+0.05j

r=\mid r\mid=\sqrt{(0.03)^2+(0.05)^2}=0.058

v=\mid V\mid=\sqrt{(5\times 10^4)^2+(-2\times 10^{4})^2}=5.39\times 10^{2}

We know that

B=\frac{mv}{qr}

Where q=1.6\times 10^{-19} C

Mass of proton=1.67\times 10^{-27} kg

Using the formula

B=\frac{1.67\times 10^{-27}\times 5.39\times 10^2}{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.058}

B=9.7\times 10^{-5} T
