A 41.0-kg child swings in a swing supported by two chains, each 3.04 m long. The tension in each chain at the lowest point is 35

8 N. (a) Find the child's speed at the lowest point. m/s (b) Find the force exerted by the seat on the child at the lowest point. (Ignore the mass of the seat.) N (upward)

Answer:

V = 4.826m/s, 716N

Explanation:

At the lowest swinging point, the net force acting on the child is equal to the centripetal force and it could be represented as

F = mv^2/r

2T-mg =mv^2/r

r(2T-mg) = mv^2

Divide both sides by m

r(2T-mg)/m = mv^2/m

r(2T/m-g) = v^2

V= √ r(2T/m-g)

Where v is the velocity

r is the length of the chain

m is the mass of the child in kg

T is the tension in Newton

g is the acceleration due to gravity

Given that g = 9.8m/s^2

T = 358N

m = 41.0kg

r = 3.04m

Substituting the values into the formula

V = √ 3.04( 2*358/41 -9.89

V = √ 3.04 ( 716/41 - 9.8 )

V = √3.04 ( 17.463-9.8 )

V = √3.04( 7.6634)

V = √23.2967

V = 4.826m/s

For the second part which is the tension in the two chains

N - m*g = m*(v^2 / r)

N - (41)*(9.81) = (41)*(4.826^2 / 3.04)

N - 402.21 = 41×7.66

N - 402.21 = 314.112

N = 402.21 + 314.112

N = 716.332 newton

Approximately = 716N

Or alternatively, since there are two chains holding the swing, of which each chain is acted upon by a 358N tension. Hence = 2T

2*358 = 716N

How much charge is on each plate of a 3.00-μF capacitor when it is connected toa 15.0-V battery? b) If this same capacitor is c
Sauron [17]

Answer:

(a) 45 micro coulomb

(b) 6 micro Coulomb

Explanation:

C = 3 micro Farad = 3 x 10^-6 Farad

V = 15 V

(a) q = C x V

where, q be the charge.

q = 3 x 10^-6 x 15 = 45 x 10^-6 C = 45 micro coulomb

(b)

V = 2 V, C = 3 micro Farad = 3 x 10^-6 Farad

q = C x V

where, q be the charge.

q = 3 x 10^-6 x 2 = 6 x 10^-6 C = 6 micro coulomb

What characteristics determine how easily two substances change temperature
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer;

Amount of time the two substances are in contact

Area in contact between the two substances

Specific heat of the material that makes up the substances

Explanation;

The change in temperature of a substance is caused by heat energy. The change in temperature will depend on factors such as mass of the substance, the type of material it is made from, the time taken , specific heat of the material that makes the substance, and also the area of contact.

The amount of time the two substances are in contact affect the change in temperature such that if the two bodies are in contact for a longer time then a bigger change in temperature will be observed.

Specific heat capacity also determines the change in temperature that will be observed, such that a substance with a bigger specific heat capacity will record a small change in temperature.
