Two small metallic spheres, each of mass 1.0 g are suspended as pendulums by light strings from a common point. The spheres are
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

Q = 1.52 X 10⁻⁷ C.

Explanation:

String is inclined at 10 degree with the vertical so the vertical component of T will balance the weight and the horizontal component will balance the force of repulsion F.

T Cos 10 = mg

T Sin 10 = F

Tan 10 = F / mg

F = mg Tan 10

= 10⁻³ x 9.8 x .176

= 1.728 x 10⁻³ .

Force of repulsion F = K Q² / R²

Distance between two charges = 2 x 1 x sin 10

= .347 m

1.728 X 10⁻³ = [tex]\frac{9\times10^9\times Q^2}{(0.347)^2}[/tex]

Q² = 2.31 X 10⁻¹⁴

Q = 1.52 X 10⁻⁷ C.

Experiencing a constant horizontal 1.10 m/s wind, a hot-air balloon ascends from the launch site at a constant vertical speed of
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

d=101 m

Explanation:

The time taken to reach the 202m is given by:

t=\frac{h}{v}\\t=\frac{202m}{2.70m/s}\\\\t=\74.8s

the problem states that the balloonist maintain that altitude for 10.3 seconds more, so:

t=74.8s+10.3s=85.1s

if the bag falls straight down:

d=v*t\\d=1.1m/s*85.1s\\d=93.6m

if the bag is affected by the velocity of the wind we need to calculate the time that the bag takes to reach the ground.

t=\sqrt{2\frac{202m}{9.8m/s^2}}\\t=6.4s

the total time would be:

t_t=85.1+6.4\\t_t=91.5s

d=v*t_t\\d=1.1m/s*91.5s\\d=101m

The 60-W fan of a central heating system is to circulate air through the ducts. The analysis of the flow shows that the fan need
MArishka [77]

Answer:

the highest possible average flow velocity is 17 m/s

Explanation:

given data

power  = 60 W

pressure = 50 Pa

diameter = 30 cm = 0.3 m

to find out

Determine the highest possible average flow velocity in the duct

solution

we will apply here energy balance equation that is

energy in = energy out

power  + m(Pv)1 = m (Pv)2

power = mv ( P2 -P1)

power = V ΔP

here P is pressure and V is maximum volume flow rate

put here value and find  V

60 = V ( 50)

maximum volume v = 1.2 m³/s

and

maximum average velocity is

Velocity = \frac{V}{\frac{\pi }{4} D^2 }

here D is diameter and V is volume

so

velocity = \frac{1.2}{\frac{\pi }{4} 0.3^2 }

velocity = 17 m/s

so the highest possible average flow velocity is 17 m/s

A student needs to use the metric system while measuring the length of a box. Which units should he use?
Andrews [41]
It depends on the size of the box.

-- If it's one of the boxes printed on a sheet of graph paper,
then he should report the measurement in millimeters.

-- If it's the box that his new smartphone arrived in, then
he should probably use centimeters.

-- If it's the box that the new tractor was shipped to his
grandfather's farm in, then meters is the best unit.
