The mass of a coin is measured to be 12.5±0.1 g. The diameter is 2.8±0.1 cm and the thickness 2.1 ±0.1 mm. Calculate the average

Evgesh-ka [11]

The average density of the material from which the coin is made is 9.67 g/cm³.

<h3>Volume of the coin</h3>

The volume of the coin at the given diameter is calculated as follows;

V = Ah

where;

A is area of the coin
h is the thickness of the coin

V = πd²/4 x h

V = π(2.8)²/4 x (0.21 cm)

V = 1.293 cm³

<h3>average density of the coin</h3>

The average density of the material from which the coin is made is calculated as follows;

density = mass/volume

density = 12.5 g / (1.293 cm³)

density = 9.67 g/cm³

Thus, the average density of the material from which the coin is made is 9.67 g/cm³.

A charge of Q is fixed in space. A second charge of q was first placed at a distance r1 away from Q. Then it was moved along a s

topjm [15]

Answer:

$\Delta U = \frac{Qq}{4\pi\epsilon_0}(\frac{1}{r_2^2}-\frac{1}{r_1^2})$

Explanation:

The electrostatic potential energy is given by the following formula

$U = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{q_1q_2}{r^2}$

Now, we will apply this formula to both cases:

$U_1 = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{Qq}{r_1^2}\\U_2 = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{Qq}{r_2^2}$

So, the change in the potential energy is

$\Delta U = U_2 - U_1 = \frac{Qq}{4\pi\epsilon_0}(\frac{1}{r_2^2}-\frac{1}{r_1^2})$

If your speed changes from 10 km/h to 6 km/h, you have a(n) ______ acceleration.

Delicious77 [7]

If your speed changes from 10 km/h to 6 km/h then
you have an acceleration.

Whether it's a positive or negative one completely depends
on which direction you decided to call the positive direction,
when you started considering your speed and its changes.

If you decided to call the direction in which you're traveling
the positive direction, then a decrease in your speed is a
negative acceleration.

But you could just as easily have said that you're traveling
in the negative direction. If you did that, then a decrease in
your speed would be a positive acceleration.

It's completely up to you, and how you define things.

A 0.11 N m torque is applied to a fan that was initially at rest. The fan has moment of inertia of 0.034 kg m2. Determine the ki

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

2.72*10-3 Joules

Explanation:

From Newton's second law of motion

F=ma

$\tau=I*\alpha$

given

$\tau= 0.11Nm\\\\I=0.034kgm^2\\\\t= 8s\\\\\alpha=?$

$\alpha =0.11/0.034\\\\\alpha=3.23 rad/s^2$

the angular velocity is

$\omega = \alpha/t\\\\\omega =3.23/8\\\\\omega =0.4 rad/s$

$KE= 1/2*I* \omega^2$

$KE=1/2*0.034*0.4^2\\\\KE=1/2*0.034*0.16\\\\KE=0.00272\\\\KE=2.72*10^-3J$

A 65 kg bungee jumper leaps from a bridge. She is tied to a bungee cord that is 12 m long when unstretched, and falls a total of

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

(a) k = 30.33 N/m

(b) a = 9.8 m/s²

Explanation:

First, we need to find the force acting on the bungee jumper. Since, this is a free fall motion. Therefore, the force must be equal to the weight of jumper:

F = W = mg

F = (65 kg)(9.8 m/s²)

F = 637 N

(a)

Now applying Hooke's Law:

F = k Δx

where,

k = spring constant = ?

Δx = change in length of bungee cord = 33 m - 12 m = 21 m

Therefore,

637 N = k(21 m)

k = 637 N/21 m

<u></u>

(b)

Since, this is free fall motion. Thus, the maximum acceleration will be the acceleration due to gravity.

a = g
