Answer:

Magnetism at atomic /sub - atomic levels is mostly due to charged particles called electrons. Electrons have spin which give them angular momentum and thus a magnetic moment associated with it. That is the cause of Magnetism at atomic levels. Electrons fill up orbitals in atoms in pairs.

Determine a formula for the magnitude of the force F exerted on the large block (Mc) so that the mass Ma does not move relative

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

The magnitude of the force F is given by

F = ( $M_{a}$ + $M_{b}$ + $M_{c}$ ) *( $M_{b}$ *g/( $\sqrt{M_{a} ^{2}-M_{b} ^{2}}$ ))

Explanation:

Given there are three blocks of masses $M_{a}$ , $M_{b}$ and $M_{c}$ (ref image in attachment)

When all three masses move together at an acceleration a, the force F is given by

F = ( $M_{a}$ + $M_{b}$ + $M_{c}$ ) *a ................(equation 1)

Also it is given that $M_{a}$ does not move with respect to $M_{c}$ , which gives tension T is exerted on pulley by $M_{a}$ only, Hence tension T is

T = $M_{a}$ *a ..........(equation 2)

There is also also tension exerted by $M_{b}$ . There are two components here: horizontal due to acceleration a and vertical component due to gravity g. Thus tension is given by

T = $M_{b}$ $\sqrt{a^{2} +g^{2} }$ ................(equation 3)

From equation 2 and 3, we get

$M_{a}$ *a = $M_{b}$ $\sqrt{a^{2} +g^{2} }$

Squaring both sides we get

$M_{a} ^{2}$ * $a^{2}$ = $M_{b} ^{2}$ * ( $a^{2}$ + $g^{2}$ )

$M_{a} ^{2}$ * $a^{2}$ = ( $M_{b} ^{2}$ * $a^{2}$ )+ ( $M_{b} ^{2}$ * $g^{2}$ )

( $M_{a} ^{2}$ - $M_{b} ^{2}$ ) * $a^{2}$ = $M_{b} ^{2}$ * $g^{2}$

$a^{2}$ = $M_{b} ^{2}$ * $g^{2}$ /( $M_{a} ^{2}$ - $M_{b} ^{2}$ )

Taking square root on both sides, we get acceleration a

a = $M_{b}$ *g/( $\sqrt{M_{a} ^{2}-M_{b} ^{2}}$ )

Hence substituting the value of a in equation 1, we get

F = ( $M_{a}$ + $M_{b}$ + $M_{c}$ ) *( $M_{b}$ *g/( $\sqrt{M_{a} ^{2}-M_{b} ^{2}}$ ))

A convex mirror, like the passenger-side rearview mirror on a car, has a focal length of -3.0 m . An object is 6.0 m from the mi

Artist 52 [7]

A) -2.0 m

Look at the ray diagram attached in the picture, where:

p identifies the location of the object

q identifies the location of the image

F identifies the focus of the mirror

Each tick represents 1 m

We have

p = 6.0 m is the distance of the object from the mirror

f = -3.0 m is the focal length

From the ray diagram, we see that q has a distance of 2.0 m from the mirror, and it's on the other side of the mirror compared to the object, so

q = -2.0 m

This can also be verified by using the mirror equation:

$\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{p}=\frac{1}{-3.0 m}-\frac{1}{6.0 m}=-\frac{3}{6.0 cm}\\q = \frac{-6.0 cm}{3}=-2.0 cm$

B) Upright and virtual

As we see from the picture, the image is upright, since it has same orientation as the object.

Also, we notice that the image is on the other side of the mirror, compared to the object. For a mirror,

- An image is said to be real if it is on the same side of the object

- An image is said to be virtual if it is on the opposite side of the mirror

Therefore, this means that the image is virtual.

1. A soccer ball is kicked horizontally off a cliff with an initial speed of 8 m/s and lands 16 m from the base of

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

Height of cliff = S = 20 m (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity = 8 m/s

Distance s = 16 m

Starting acceleration (a) = 0

Computation:

s = ut + 1/2a(t)²

16 = 8t

t = 2 sec

Height of cliff = S

Gravitational acceleration = 10 m/s

S = 1/2a(t)²

S = 1/2(10)(2)²

Height of cliff = S = 20 m (Approx)
