Answer: Yes, he is exceeding the speed limit

Explanation:

Hi!

This is problem about unit conversion

1 mile = 1,609.344 m

Then the speed limit v is:

v = 75 mi/h = 120,700.8 m/h

1 hour = 60 min = 60*60 s = 3,600 s

v = (120,700.8/3,600) m/s = 33.52 m/s

38 m/s is higher than the speed limit v.

The CERN particle accelerator is circular with a circumference of 7.0 km.
Contact [7]

Answer:

a_c=2.0196\times 10^{13}\ m/s^2

F=3.37273\times 10^{-14}\ N

Explanation:

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

v = Speed of proton = 0.5c = 0.5\times 3\times 10^8=1.5\times 10^8\ m/s

Circumference of the colider is 7 km

P=2\pi r\\\Rightarrow r=\frac{P}{2\pi}\\\Rightarrow r=\frac{7000}{2\pi}\ m

a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}\\\Rightarrow a_c=\frac{\left(1.5\times 10^8\right)^2}{\frac{7000}{2\pi}}\\\Rightarrow a_c=2.0196\times 10^{13}\ m/s^2

Centripetal acceleration is 2.0196\times 10^{13}\ m/s^2

F_c=ma_c\\\Rightarrow F_c=1.67\times 10^{-27}\times 2.0196\times 10^{13}\\\Rightarrow F=3.37273\times 10^{-14}\ N

Force on protons is 3.37273\times 10^{-14}\ N

A 1-megabit computer memory chip contains many 27 fF capacitors. Each capacitor has a plate area of 3.09 × 10−11 m 2 . Determine
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Plate separation of each capacitor is 101.132 °A

Explanation:

The formula to calculate the capacitance in empty space as a function of distance (square parallel plates) is:

C=\epsilon_{0}\frac{Area}{distance}

clearing for distance:

distance=\epsilon_0 \frac{Area}{Capacitance} \\\\\epsilon_0=8.8542(10)^{-12}C^2/Nm\\\\Area=3.09(10)^{-11}m^2\\Capacitance=27(10)^{-15}F\\\\Replacing\\\\distance=\frac{8.8542(10)^{-12}*3.09(10)^{-11}}{27(10)^{-15}} =1.0133(10)^{-8}m\\\\In A\\distance= 101.132 A

A 0.2 kg hockey park is sliding along the eyes with an initial velocity of -10 m/s when a player strikes it with his stick, caus
babunello [35]

Answer:

The impulse applied by the stick to the hockey park is approximately 7 kilogram-meters per second.  

Explanation:

The Impulse Theorem states that the impulse experimented by the hockey park is equal to the vectorial change in its linear momentum, that is:

I = m\cdot (\vec{v}_{2} - \vec{v_{1}}) (1)

Where:

I - Impulse, in kilogram-meters per second.

m - Mass, in kilograms.

\vec{v_{1}} - Initial velocity of the hockey park, in meters per second.

\vec{v_{2}} - Final velocity of the hockey park, in meters per second.

If we know that m = 0.2\,kg, \vec{v}_{1} = -10\,\hat{i}\,\left[\frac{m}{s}\right] and \vec {v_{2}} = 25\,\hat{i}\,\left[\frac{m}{s} \right], then the impulse applied by the stick to the park is approximately:

I = (0.2\,kg)\cdot \left(35\,\hat{i}\right)\,\left[\frac{m}{s} \right]

I = 7\,\hat{i}\,\left[\frac{kg\cdot m}{s} \right]

The impulse applied by the stick to the hockey park is approximately 7 kilogram-meters per second.

You are investigating an elevator accident which happened in a tall building. An elevator in this building is attached to a stro
Advocard [28]

Answer:

a) F = 2250 Ib

b) F = 550 Ib

c) new max force ( F newmax ) = 2850 Ib

Explanation:

A) The force the wall of the elevator shaft exert on the motor if the elevator starts from rest and goes up

max capacity  of elevator = 24000 Ibs

counterweight = 1000 Ibs

To calculate the force (F) :

we first calculate the Tension using this relationship

Counterweight (1000) - T =  ( 1000 / g ) ( g/4 )

Hence T = 750 Ib

next determine F

750 + F - 2400 = 2400 / 4

hence F = 2250 Ib

B ) calculate Tension first

T - 1000 = ( 1000/g ) ( g/4)

T = 1250 Ib

F = 2400 -1250 - 2400/ 4

F = 550 Ib

C ) determine design limit

Max = 2400 * 1.2 = 2880 Ib

750 + new force - 2880 = 2880 / 4

new max force ( F newmax ) = 2850 Ib
