A net force of 15 N is applied to a cart with a mass of 2.1 kg. What is the acceleration of the cart?

Shkiper50 [21]

Force = mass * acceleration
15 = 2.1 * a
a = 15/2.1 = 7.143 m/s^2

Match the term to the correct description.

Misha Larkins [42]

1
The flow of electrons from negative to positive.

3
Materials that can easily carry electricity from place to place.

4
Materials that do conduct electricity, just not as well as conductors.

5
Materials that stop the flow of electricity.

2
An object that slows down the flow of electric current but still allows some electric current to move, resulting in some of the energy being converted to heat (thermal energy) or light energy in the process.

A 40.0-mH inductor is connected to a North American electrical outlet (ΔVrms = 120 V, f = 60.0 Hz). Assuming the energy stored i

trasher [3.6K]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Inductance, $L=40\ mH=40\times 10^{-3}\ H$

RMS value of voltage, $v_{rms}=120\ V$

Frequency, f = 60 Hz

We need to find the energy stored at t = (1 /185) s. It is assumed that energy stored in the inductor is zero at t = 0. So,

The current flowing through the inductor is given by :

$I_t=\dfrac{V_o}{X_L}\ (sin\ \omega t-\dfrac{\pi}{2})$

$I_t=\dfrac{\sqrt{2} V_{rms}}{X_L}\ (sin\ \omega t-\dfrac{\pi}{2})$

$I_t=\dfrac{120\sqrt{2}}{2\pi f L}\ sin(2\pi f t-\dfrac{\pi}{2})$

$I_t=\dfrac{120\sqrt{2}}{2\pi\times 60\times 40\times 10^{-3}}\ sin(2\pi \times 60\times \dfrac{1}{185})-\dfrac{\pi}{2})$

$I_t=\dfrac{120\sqrt2}{15.07}\ sin(2\pi \times 60\times \dfrac{1}{185}-\dfrac{\pi}{2})$

I = 0.091 A

Energy stored in the inductor is, $U=\dfrac{1}{2}LI^2$

$U=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 40\times 10^{-3}\times (0.091)^2$

U = 0.000165 Joules

Hence, this is the required solution.

A wild pig attacks a hunter with a velocity of 5 m/s. At the instant when the pig is at a distance of 100 m the hunter shoots an

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

31.55 m/s

Explanation:

Let the initial velocity of the arrow is u metre per second.

Angle of projection, θ = 40 degree

range = 100 m

Use the formula for the range.

$R = \frac{u^{2}Sin2\theta }{g}$

100 = u^2 Sin(2 x 40) / 9.8

100 x 9.8 = u^2 Sin 80

u^2 = 995.11

u = 31.55 m/s

Suppose you designed a spacecraft to work by photon pressure. The sail was a completely absorbing fabric of area 1.0 km2 and you

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

(a) F = 6.14 *10⁻⁴ N

(b) P = 6.14* 10⁻¹⁰ Pa

Explanation:

Area of sail A = 1.0 km² = 1.0 * 10⁶m²

Wavelength of light λ = 650 nm = 650 * 10⁻⁹ m

Rate of impact of photons R = 1 mol/s = 6.022 * 10²³ photons/s

(a)

Momentum of each photon is Ρ = h/λ = 6.625 * 10⁻³⁴ / 650 * 10⁻⁹

= 1.0192 * 10⁻²⁷ kg.m/s

Since the photons are absorbed completely, in every collision the above momentum is transferred to the sail.

Momentum transferred to the sail per second is product of rate of impact of photons and momentum transferred by each photon.

dp/dt = R * h/ λ

This is the force acting on the sail.

F = R * h/λ = 6.022 * 10²³ * 1.0192 * 10⁻²⁷ = 6.14 *10⁻⁴ N

F = 6.14 *10⁻⁴ N

Pressure exerted by the radiation on the sail = Force acting on the sail / Area of the sail

P = F/A = 6.14 * 10⁻⁴ / 1.0 * 10⁶ = 6.14* 10⁻¹⁰ Pa

P = 6.14* 10⁻¹⁰ Pa

Acceleration of spacecraft a = F/m = 6.14 * 10⁻⁴ /1.0 = 6.14 * 10⁻⁴m/s²

As the spacecraft starts from rest, initial speed u=0,m/s ,

final speed is u = 1.0 m/s after time t

v = u+at

t = 1.0 - 0/ 6.14 * 10⁻⁴ = 1629s = 27.2 min

t = 27.2 min
