4. Two forces act on a 2 kg object as shown. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the object?

Physics

4 0

The resultant force on the object is

∑ <em>F</em> = 〈0, 8〉 N + 〈6, 0〉 N = 〈6, 8〉 N

which has a magnitude of

<em>F</em> = √((6 N)² + (8 N)²) = √(100 N²) = 10 N

By Newton's second law, the acceleration has magnitude <em>a</em> such that

<em>F</em> = <em>m a</em>

10 N = (2 kg) <em>a</em>

<em>a</em> = (10 N) / (2 kg)

<em>a</em> = 5 m/s²

so the answer is B.

Bullets from two revolvers are fired with the same velocity. The bullet from gun #1 is twice as heavy as the bullet from gun #2.
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

option C

Explanation:

Let mass of the bullet be m and velocity be v

mass of gun be M and bullet be V

now,

using conservation of momentum for gun 1

(M+m) V' = 2 mv + 3 MV

V' = 0

3 M V = - 2 mv

momentum of gun 1 =- 2 mv---------(1)

now for gun 2

(M+m) V' = mv + MV

V' = 0

M V = - mv

momentum of gun 1 = -mv-----------(2)

dividing equation (1) by (2)

\dfrac{P_m1}{P_m2} = \dfrac{- 2mv}{-mv}

\dfrac{P_m1}{P_m2} = \dfrac{2}{1}

the correct answer is option C

A motorboat and a pwc are approaching head-on. what action should be taken?
SashulF [63]
In this situation, both of the vehicles turn towards starboard.

By turning to the starboard, or right, side, the vehicles are able to avoid collision. Because waterways are not marked in a manner like roads are, it is necessary to place such conventions of turning in situations where vehicles approach one another head on. If a convention was not in place, the risk of collision would be many times greater. For example, the motorboat operator may turn left, while the PWC operator turns right, resulting in a collision.

HELP + extra pts // Two 10-m high diving platforms are at opposing ends of a 30-m pool. How fast must two clowns run straight of
ZanzabumX [31]

Explanation:

The clowns need to leave the diving boards with enough horizontal velocity such that each travels 15 m (half the width of the pool) in the same time that they fall (vertically) the 10-m from the top of the diving board.

We'll assume no force acts on the clowns horizontally to slow them down while they are in flight. And we'll assume that only gravity acts on the clowns vertically.

We can treat the horizontal and vertical components separately. This will help simplify the problem.

Let's start with the vertical displacement. Let's say the clown is dropped from a height of 10-m. How long would it take them to fall that distance?

Using our equations of motion (with constant, linear acceleration), we can solve for this time. d = vt + \frac{1}{2} at^2

Where d is the distance travelled, v is the initial velocity, a is acceleration, and t is time.

If the clown is dropped, they have an initial velocity of 0 (zero). We assumed only gravity acts on the clown, so acceleration equals the gravitational acceleration on earth. a = 9.8m/s^2

The distance the clown travels is 10-m from the diving board to the surface of the water.

Let's solve. 10 = 0*t + \frac{1}{2} (9.8) t^2 \rightarrow 20/9.8 = t^2 \rightarrow t = \sqrt{20/9.8}

Now that we know time, we can calculate how fast the clown needs to be running when they leap from the diving board to cover a distance of 15-m (Remember, half the width of the pool.)

Using our equations of motion, we know that d = vt + 0.5at^2

We assumed no forces act horizontally on the clown, therefore a = 0. We just need to solve for v. Substituting in the time we just solved for, we get something like this. 15 = v \sqrt{20/9.8}

I'll leave it to you to solve this equation.

A straight wire of length 0.62 m carries a conventional current of 0.7 amperes. What is the magnitude of the magnetic field made
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

Magnetic field at point having a distance of 2 cm from wire is 6.99 x 10⁻⁶ T

Explanation:

Magnetic field due to finite straight wire at a point perpendicular to the wire is given by the relation :

B=\frac{\mu_{0}I }{2\pi R }\times\frac{L}{\sqrt{L^{2}+R^{2}  } }      ......(1)

Here I is current in the wire, L is the length of the wire, R is the distance of the point from the wire and μ₀ is vacuum permeability constant.

In this problem,

Current, I = 0.7 A

Length of wire, L = 0.62 m

Distance of point from wire, R = 2 cm = 2 x 10⁻² m = 0.02 m

Vacuum permeability, μ₀ = 4π x 10⁻⁷ H/m

Substitute these values in equation (1).

B=\frac{4\pi\times10^{-7}\times  0.7 }{2\pi \times0.02 }\times\frac{0.62}{\sqrt{(0.62)^{2}+(0.02) ^{2}  } }

B = 6.99 x 10⁻⁶ T
