Two masses are connected by a string and hang from a massless, frictionless pulley. One of the masses is a 9.2 kg bag of sand. W

hen released, the sandbag falls with an acceleration of 6.1 m/s^2. What is the mass of the second object? What is the tension in the rope?

Answer

given,

mass of one sand bag = 9.2 kg

mass of second object = ?

acceleration = 6.1 m/s²

acceleration due to gravity = 9.8

m₁g - T = m₁ a...............(1)

T - m₂g = m₂ a................(2)

now 1 + 2

m₁g - m₂g = (m₁ +m₂)a

9.2 × 9.8  - m₂ × 9.8 = 6.1 × 9.2 + 6.1 × m₂

15.9 m₂ = 34.04

m₂ = 2.14 kg

now putting value of m₂ in equation (1)

T = m₁g - m₁ a

T = 9.2 × 9.8 - 9.2 × 2.14

T = 70.47 N

A 0.20-kg object is attached to the end of an ideal horizontal spring that has a spring constant of 120 N/m. The simple harmonic
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

0.07756 m

Explanation:

Given mass of object =0.20 kg

spring constant = 120 n/m

maximum speed = 1.9 m/sec

We have to find the amplitude of the motion

We know that maximum speed of the object when it is in harmonic motion is given by v_{max}=A\omega where A is amplitude and \omega is angular velocity

Angular velocity is given by \omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}  where k is spring constant and m is mass

So v_{max}=A\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

A=V_{max}\sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}=1.9\times \sqrt{\frac{0.2}{120}}=0.07756 \ m

if charge is located at center of spherical volume and electric flux through surface of sphere is Φ what would be flux through s
jonny [76]

Answer:

The flux will be nine times as great.

Explanation:

The electric flux due to a charge Q located in the center of a sphere can be obtained using Gauss's law. Considering a Gaussian surface in the form of a sphere of radius r:

\Phi_E=\int\limits {Ecos\theta dS} \,

The electric field (E) is parallel to the surface vector (dS), so \theta=0

\Phi_E=\int\limits{Ecos(0)dS} \,\\\Phi_E=E\int\limits{dS} \,\\\Phi_E=ES\\\Phi_E=E4\pi r^2

Since the electric flux is proportional to the square of the sphere's radius,  if radius of sphere were tripled, the flux will be nine times as great.

A motorbike is traveling to the left with a speed of 27.0 m s 27.0 s m ​ 27, point, 0, start fraction, start text, m, end text,
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial velocity , u = 27 m/s

displacement before stop,  s = 41.5 m .

final velocity,  v = 0

acceleration a = ?

v² = u² + 2 a s

0 = 27² + 2 x a x 41.5

a = - 27² / 2 x 41.5

= - 8.78 m /s

The current in a hair dryer measures 15 amps the resistance of the hair dryer is 8 ohms
suter [353]

The <u><em>voltage</em></u> at the input to the hair dryer is

V = (current) · (resistance)

V = (15 A) · (8 Ω)

<em>V = 120 volts</em>

<em>__________________________________</em>

The <em><u>power</u></em> dissipated by the hair dryer is

P = (current)²· (resistance)

P = (15 A)² · (8 Ω)

<em>P = 1800 watts </em>
