An electromagnet on the ceiling of an airplane holds a steel ball. When a button is pushed, the magnet releases the ball. The ex

periment is first done while the plane is parked on the ground, and the point where the ball hits the floor is marked with an X. Then the experiment is repeated while the plane is flying level at a steady 500 mph.Does the ball land slight in front of the X( toward the nose of the plane), on the X, or slightly behind the X(toward the tail) explain.

Answer:

The ball will fall on the X .

Explanation:

At height,  when the aeroplane is in great speed , everything attached with it acquires the same speed . So ball will also have the same speed as the aeroplane have. When ball  starts falling off , it gets detached from plane but , at the same time it continues to travel with its earlier speed , because of inertia of motion. So it remains stationary with respect to plane in horizontal direction . It has velocity with respect to plane only in vertical direction. Hence it will fall on the X. It is due to first law of motion.

The sound intensity of a certain type of food processor in normally distributed with standard deviation of 2.9 decibels. If the
Maru [420]

Answer: (48.41,\ 52.19)

Explanation:

The confidence interval for population mean is given by :-

\overline{x}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Given : Sample size : n=9

Sample mean : \ovreline{x}=50.3\text{ decibels}

Standard deviation : \sigma=2.9\text{ decibels }

Significance level : \alpha=1-0.95=0.05

Critical value : z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.025}=1.96

Now, the 95% confidence interval estimate of the (true, unknown) mean sound intensity of all food processors of this type :-

50.3\pm (1.96)\dfrac{2.9}{\sqrt{9}}\\\\\approx50.3\pm1.89\\\\=(50.3-1.89,\ 50.3+1.89)=(48.41,\ 52.19)

Calculate the kinetic energy in joules of a 1,500 kg car that is moving at a speed of 42 km/h
Rzqust [24]
Data:
KE (Kinetic Energy) = ? (Joule)
m (mass) = 1500 Kg 
v (speed) = 42 Km/h
converting to m/s (42 / 3.6), we have: v (speed) = 11.6 m/s

Formula:
K_{E} =   \frac{1}{2} m*v^2

Solving:
K_{E} = \frac{1}{2} m*v^2
K_{E} =  \frac{1}{2} *1500*(11.6)^2
K_{E} = \frac{1}{2} *1500*134.56
K_{E} =  \frac{201840}{2}
\boxed{\boxed{K_{E} = 100920\:Joule}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark

In the context of energy transfers with hot and cold reservoirs, the sign convention is that _______________.
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

B. QC > 0; QH < 0

Explanation:

Given that there are two reservoir of energy.

Sign convention for heat and work :

1.If the heat is adding to the system then it is taken as positive and if heat is going out from the system then it is taken as negative.

2. If the work is done on the system then it is taken as negative and if the work is done by the system then it is taken as positive.

From hot reservoir heat is going out that is why it is taken as negative

Q_H

From cold reservoir heat is coming inside the reservoir that is why it is taken as positive

Q_C>0

That is why the answer will be

Q_H ,Q_C>0

Suppose you wish to fabricate a uniform wire out of 1.10 g of copper. If the wire is to have a resistance R = 0.390 Ω, and if al
Citrus2011 [14]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to volume, as a function of length and area, as of mass and density. Later we will take the same concept of resistance and resistivity, equal to the length per unit area. Once obtained from the known constants it will be possible to obtain the area by matching the two equations:

Mass of copper wire(m) = 1.10g = 1.10*10^{-3} kg

Density (\rho)= 8.92*10^3kg/m^3

Resistively of copper (\gamma) = 1.7*10^{-8}\Omega \cdot m

Resistance (R) = 0.390\Omega

Volume is defined as,

V= lA \text{ and }\frac{m}{\rho}

lA= \frac{1.10*10^{-3}}{8.92*10^3}

lA = 1.233*10^{-7} m^3 (1)

We know that,

\frac{l}{A} = \frac{R}{\gamma}

\frac{l}{A}= \frac{0.390\Omega}{1.7*10^{-8}\Omega m}

\frac{l}{A} = 2.2941*10^7 m^{-1} (2)

Multiplying equation we have

l^2 = (1.233*10^{-7})( 2.2941*10^7)

l^2 = 2.8286m^2

l =\sqrt{2.8286m^2}

l = 1.68m

Therefore the length of the wire is 1.68m
