Accuracy refers to how closely a measured value agrees with the correct value. Precision refers to how closely individual measurements agree with each other. ... The number of significant figures is the number of digits believed to be correct by the person doing the measuring.

A mass M of 3.80E-1 kg slides inside a hoop of radius R=1.10 m with negligible friction. When M is at the top, it has a speed of
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

N = 26.59 N

Explanation:

given,

mass = 0.38 kg

radius of the hoop = 1.10 m

speed = 5.35 m/s

force = ?

now,

\dfrac{1}{2}mv_t^2 + mg(2R) = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 + mgR(1-cos \theta)

mv^2 = mv_t^2 + 2mgR(1 + cos \theta)

we know that,

N - mgcos \theta = \dfrac{mv^2}{R}

N - mgcos \theta = \dfrac{mv_t^2 + 2mgR(1 + cos \theta)}{R}

N - mgcos \theta = \dfrac{mv_t^2 }{R}+ 2mg(1 + cos \theta)

N  = \dfrac{mv_t^2 }{R}+ 2mg + 3mgcos \theta)

N  = \dfrac{0.38\times 5.35^2 }{1.1}+ 2\times 0.38\times 9.8 + 3\times 0.38 \times 9.8 cos 34^0)

N = 26.59 N

WHAT WILL BE YOUR CONCLUSI0N ABOUT ELECTROMAGNETIC WAVE
andrezito [222]

Answer:

It's really important waves type for fulfill human's needs

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves composed by the perpendicular oscillating electric and magnetic fields.

EM waves have both Electrical and magnetic features.

they travel in the velocity of light (3*10⁸ ms⁻¹)

they does not require any media to travel. It has two perpendicular electric field and the magnetic field which are perpendicular to each other

They travel perpendicular to each of those electric and magnetic fields.

Example :  

  • Radio Wave
  • Micro Wave
  • IR wave
  • Light Wave
  • UV rays
  • X rays
  • Gamma rays
  • Cosmic rays

The main importance of em waves is they allow energy to be stored within them and then can be propagated over a large distance using the dielectric and magnetic properties of materials .

This performance has been used in many fields wisely and effectively to make the things easy.

Ex : medicine , Telecommunication , energy , Engineering etc

How large a force is necessary to stretch a 4.0-mm-diameter steel wire from its original length by 1.0%?
jekas [21]

The force needed to stretch the steel wire by 1% is 25,140 N.

The given parameters include;

  • diameter of the steel, d = 4 mm
  • the radius of the wire, r = 2mm = 0.002 m
  • original length of the wire, L₁
  • final length of the wire, L₂ = 1.01 x L₁ (increase of 1% = 101%)
  • extension of the wire e = L₂ - L₁ = 1.01L₁ - L₁ = 0.01L₁
  • the Youngs modulus of steel, E = 200 Gpa

The area of the steel wire is calculated as follows;

A = \pi r^2\\\\ A= 3.142 \times (0.002)^2\\\\ A= 1.257 \times 10^{-5} \ m^2

The force needed to stretch the wire is calculated from Youngs modulus of elasticity given as;

E = \frac{stress}{strain} = \frac{F/A}{e/L} = \frac{FL}{Ae} \\\\F = \frac{EAe}{L}

F = \frac{200 \times 10^9\  \times\  1.257\times 10^{-5}\  \times \ 0.01l_1}{l_1} \\\\F = 25,140\ N

Thus, the force needed to stretch the steel wire by 1% is 25,140 N.
