bazaltina [42]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

19.6N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of rock = 2kg

Speed  = 30m/s

Unknown:

Net force on the rock  = ?

Solution:

The net force acting on this rock is a function of the acceleration due to gravity acting upon it.

 Net force  = weight  = mass x acceleration due to gravity

 Net force  = 2 x 9.8  = 19.6N downward

For a body to be in SHM, the restoring force must be __________ to displacement from equilibrium.
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

Proportional

Explanation:

The conditions that must be met to produce SHM are;

-The restoring force must be proportional to the displacement and act opposite to the direction of motion with no drag forces or friction.

- The frequency of oscillation does not depend on the amplitude.

If you touch the two terminals of a power supply with your two fingertips on opposite hands, the potential difference will produ
LiRa [457]

Answer:

Yes the body will receive a dangerous shock in both cases.

Explanation:

Different parts of the body has different resistance. skin has the high resistance as compared to other organs of the body.

Dry skin has high resistance than wet skin this is because water is relatively good conductor of electricity, it adds parallel path to the current flow and hence reduces skin resistance.

Dry hands body has approximately 500 kΩ resistance and if 120 V electricity supply current received will be:

I = V/R= 120/ 500*10^3

I= 0.24 mA

Even the current seems is much lower than the safe zone but this is the case in case of DC voltage in case of AC voltage the body will receive a shock this is because the skin pass more current when the voltage is changing i.e. AC.

Similarly for wet hands body resistance is 1 kΩ. so the current through the body seems to be:

I = 120 / 1000

I = 12 mA

The current is higher than safe zone so the body will receive a dangerous shock.

How much would a 75kg man weigh due to the effect of gravity
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer: 735 N

Explanation:

Weight W is a measure of the gravitational force acting on an object and is directly proportional to the product of the mass m of the body by the acceleration of gravity g:  

W=m.g

In the case of our planet Earth, the acceleration due gravity is g=9.8 m/s^{2}. So for a man whose mass is m=75 kg, his weight is:

W=(75 kg)(9.8 m/s^{2})

W=735 N

A baseball of mass m = 0.31 kg is spun vertically on a massless string of length L = 0.51m. The string can only support a tensio
natulia [17]

Given data:

* The mass of the baseball is 0.31 kg.

* The length of the string is 0.51 m.

* The maximum tension in the string is 7.5 N.

Solution:

The centripetal force acting on the ball at the top of the loop is,

\begin{gathered} T+mg=\frac{mv^2}{L}_{} \\ v^2=\frac{L(T+mg)}{m} \\ v=\sqrt[]{\frac{L(T+mg)}{m}} \end{gathered}

For the maximum velocity of the ball at the top of the vertical circular motion,

v_{\max }=\sqrt[]{\frac{L(T_{\max }+mg)}{m}}

where g is the acceleration due to gravity,

Substituting the known values,

\begin{gathered} v_{\max }=\sqrt[]{\frac{0.51(7.5_{}+0.31\times9.8)}{0.31}} \\ v_{\max }=\sqrt[]{\frac{0.51(10.538)}{0.31}} \\ v_{\max }=\sqrt[]{17.34} \\ v_{\max }=4.16\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}

Thus, the maximum speed of the ball at the top of the vertical circular motion is 4.16 meters per second.

12) Water flows through a horizontal pipe of cross-sectional area 10.0 cm2 at a pressure of 0.250 atm with a flow rate is 1.00 L
masha68 [24]

Answer:

The pressure after passing the valve is 23,8 [Kpa] ( 0,234 atm) and the pressure drop is about 1,53 [Kpa]

Explanation:

We need to use the formula of bernoulli, in the attached image we can see the fluid throw the pipe, we also can calculate the velocity inside the pipe using the flow rate and the cross sectional area.

For this case, we don't use the elevation difference and therefore those terms can be cancelled.

When the area has reduced the velocity of the fluid is increased but there is a drop pressure through the valve.
