An astronaut on a small planet wishes to measure the local value of g by timing pulses traveling down a wire which has a large o

bject suspended from it. Assume a wire of mass 4.00 g is 1.60 m long and has a 3.00-kg object suspended from it. A pulse requires 65.6 ms to traverse the length of the wire. Calculate gplanet from these data. (You may neglect the mass of the wire when calculating the tension in it.)

Answer:

The gplanet is 0.193 m/s^2

Explanation:

The speed of the pulse is:

v=\frac{lengthofthewipe}{traveltime} =\frac{1.6}{0.0656} =15.24m/s

v=\sqrt{\frac{MgL}{m} } \\v^{2} =\frac{MgL}{m} \\g=\frac{mv^{2} }{ML}

where

m=mass of the wire=4 g= 4x10^-3 kg

M=mass of the object= 3 kg

Replacing values:

g=\frac{4x10^{-3}*15.24^{2}  }{3*1.6} =0.193 m/s^{2}

The magnitude of the force associated with the gravitational field is constant and has a value FF . A particle is launched from
uysha [10]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the particle will be 12U₀

Explanation:

Given that,

A particle is launched from point B with an initial velocity and reaches point A having gained U₀ joules of kinetic energy.

Constant force = 12F

According to question,

The kinetic energy is

U_{0}=Fx....(I)

Constant force = 12F

A resistive force field is now set up ,

Resistive force is given by,

F_{r}=12F

When the particle moves from point B to point A then,

We need to calculate the kinetic energy

Using formula for kinetic energy

U=F_{r}x

Put the value of F_{r}

U=12Fx

Now, from equation (I)

U=12U_{0}

Hence, The kinetic energy of the particle will be 12U₀.

Distance versus Displacement Worksheet
Umnica [9.8K]

when we find the distance we will add all the blocks so

distance = 6+6+4

distance = 14blocks

when we find the displacement we will add and minus too

As you can read he goes to the south 6 and to north 6 so he leave that place and back to the place again so the displacement is 0. and again he goes to the west 4 blocks so the displacement = <em><u>4blocks</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>to</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>the</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>west</u></em>
