A rectangular plate is rotating with a constant angular speed about an axis that passes perpendicularly through one corner, as t

he drawing shows. The centripetal acceleration measured at corner A is n times as great as that measured at corner B. What is the ratio L1/L2 of the lengths of the sides of the rectangle when n = 2.30?

Answer:

2.07

Explanation:

Since you didn't supply the drawing, here is what I assumed:

A is the corner opposite the axis of rotation

B is one of the remaining two corners

L1 is the side between A & B

Centripetal acceleration is given by:

ac = v^2 / r = (v / r) * (v / r) * r…………1

Also angular speed is

w = v / r,………….2

Substituting (2) in (1) gives:

ac = (v / r) * (v / r) * r……….3

= (v / r)^2 * r

= w^2 * r

Therefore, the angular acceleration at A and at B are given by:

acA = w^2 * rA……..4

acB = w^2 * rB……..5

It is given that:

acA = n * acB…………6

Substituting (4) and (5) into (6) gives:

w^2 * rA = n * w^2 * rB ……….7==>

rA = n * rB……..8

In terms of the sides L1 and L2:

rA = sqrt (L1^2 + L2^2)…….9

and

rB = L2…………10

Considering (8):

n * L2 = sqrt (L1^2 + L2^2)………11

Squaring both sides:

n^2 * L2^2 = L1^2 + L2^2……….12

Dividing by L2^2:

n^2 = L1^2 / L2^2 + L2^2 / L2^2…….13

= (L1 / L2)^2 + 1 ==>

n^2 - 1 = (L1 / L2)^2 ………14==>

L1 / L2 = sqrt (n^2 - 1) ………15

= sqrt (2.30^2 - 1)

= 2.07. . . . . . <<<=== the value of the ratio L1 / L2 when n = 2.30

3. Write any two types of force.​
Lerok [7]

Answer:

An <u>applied force</u> is a force that is applied to an object by a person or another object. If a person is pushing a desk across the room, then there is an applied force acting upon the object. The applied force is the force exerted on the desk by the person.

A <u>friction force</u> is the force exerted by a surface as an object moves across it or makes an effort to move across it. There are at least two types of friction force - sliding and static friction. Though it is not always the case, the friction force often opposes the motion of an object. For example, if a book slides across the surface of a desk, then the desk exerts a friction force in the opposite direction of its motion. Friction results from the two surfaces being pressed together closely, causing intermolecular attractive forces between molecules of different surfaces. As such, friction depends upon the nature of the two surfaces and upon the degree to which they are pressed together. The maximum amount of friction force that a surface can exert upon an object can be calculated using the formula below:

F_{frict} = µ • F_{norm}

6. A satellite is orbiting Earth just above its surface. The centripetal force making the satellite follow a circular trajectory
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

Engular velocity: w=1,24*10^{-3}/s

Linear velocity: V=7905 m/s

The time it takes:

t=5060s=84min

Explanation:

The magnitude of the centripetal acceleration can be related to the angular velocity and radius as:

(1)a=r*w^{2}

Solving for w:

(2)w=\sqrt{\frac{a}{r} }

Replacing a=9,8m/s2 and r=6,375,000m:

(3)w=\sqrt{\frac{9,8m/s^{2}}{6375000m} }=1,24*10^{-3}/s

And the angular velocity relates to the linear velocity:

V=w*r=1,24*10^{-3}/s*6375000m=7905 m/s

The perimeter of the orbit is:

P=\pi *2*r=\pi *2*6375000m=40.05*10^{6}m

The time it takes:

t=\frac{P}{V} =\frac{40.05*10^{6}m}{7905 m/s}=5060s=84min

A long, straight, horizontal wire carries a left-to-right current of 40 A. If the wire is placed in a uniform magnetic field of
Drupady [299]

Answer:

4.5\times 10^{-5} T

Explanation:

We are given that

Current in wire=40 A

Magnetic field=B_1=3.5\times 10^{-5} T( vertically downward)

We have to find the resultant magnitude of the magnetic field 29 cm above the wire and 29 cm below the wire.

According to Bio-Savart law, the magnetic field exerted by the wire at distance R is given by

B_{wire}=B_2=\frac{\mu_0I}{2\pi R}

We have R=29 cm=\frac{29}{100}=0.29 m

1 m=100 cm

Substitute the values in the given formula

B_2=\frac{4\pi\times 10^{-7}\times 40}{2\times \pi\times 0.29}=\frac{2\times 40\times 10^{-7}}{0.29}=2.76\times 10^{-5} T

The resultant magnetic field is given by

B=\sqrt{B^2_1+B^2_2}

Substitute the values then we get

B=\sqrt{(3.5\times 10^{-5})^2+(2.76\times 10^{-5})^2}

B=4.5\times 10^{-5} T

The resultant magnitude of magnetic field is same above and below the wire as it is at same distance.

The resultant magnitude of the magnetic field 29 cm below the wire=4.5\times 10^{-5} T

Hence, the resultant magnitude of the magnetic field 29 cm above  the wire=4.5\times 10^{-5} T

Why is a shadow formed
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

Shadows are made by blocking light. Light rays travel from a source in straight lines. If an opaque (solid) object gets in the way, it stops light rays from traveling through it. The size and shape of a shadow depend on the position and size of the light source compared to the object.
