A mass of 790 kg is hanging from a crane (neglect the mass of the cable and the hook). While the mass is being lowered, it is sp

Margarita [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of object hanging from crane is $m=790\ kg$

mass is speeding up with $a=2.7\ m/s^2$

If T is the Tension in the cable then

$mg-T=ma$

$T=mg-ma$

$T=m(g-a)$

$T=790\times (9.8-2.7)$

$T=790\times 7.1$

$T=5609\ N$

A person walks 9.0 km directly east and then turns left and heads directly north for 12.0 km. What is his displacement from the

Readme [11.4K]

Explanation:

Given that,

A person walks 9.0 km directly east and then turns left and heads directly north for 12.0 km.

We need to find his displacement from the starting position.

We know that,

Displacement = shortest path covered

$D=\sqrt{9^2+12^2} \\\\D=15\ km$

For direction,

$\theta=\tan^{-1}(\dfrac{d_y}{d_x})\\\\\theta=\tan^{-1}(\dfrac{12}{9})\\\\= $$53.13^{\circ}$

Hence, this is the required solution.

the book has a mass of 2.5 kg. What net force must act on the book to mak it accelerate to the left at a rate of 7.0m/s2?

Reil [10]

Answer:

17.5 N

Explanation:

<h2>Given :</h2>

Mass (m) = 2.5 kg
Acceleration (a) = 7.0 m/s²

<h2>To calculate :</h2>

Force exerted (F)

<h2>Calculation :</h2>

→ F = (2.5 × 7.0) N

→ F = 25/10 × 7 N

→ F = 5/2 × 7 N

→ F = (5 × 7)/2 N

→ F = 35/2 N

→ <u>F</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>1</u><u>7</u><u>.</u><u>5</u><u> </u><u>N</u><u> </u><u>towards</u><u> </u><u>left</u>

Hence, 17.5 N of net force must act on the book to make it accelerate to the left.

‏Explain how an electron emitted by the photoelectric effect can have kinetic energy less than threshold energy ?

xenn [34]

Answer:

the photons (quanta of light) collide with the electrons, these electrons have to overcome the threshold energy that is the energy of union with the metal, and the energy that remains is converted to kinetic energy.

K = E - Ф

Explanation:

The photoelectric effect is the emission of electrons from the surface of a metal.

This was correctly explained by Einstein, in his explanation the energy of the photons (quanta of light) collide with the electrons, these electrons have to overcome the threshold energy that is the energy of union with the metal, and the energy that remains is converted to kinetic energy.

E = hf

E = K + Ф

K = E - Ф

The energy of the photons is given by the Planck relation E = hf and according to Einstein the number of joints must be added

E = n hf

Therefore, depending on the value of this energy, the emitted electrons can have energy from zero onwards.

A hot air balloon is traveling vertically upward at a constant speed of 4.5 m/s. When it is 28 m above the ground, a package is

ella [17]

Answer:

1.97 seconds

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 21=4.5t+\frac{1}{2}\times -9.8\times t^2\\\Rightarrow 21=-4.5t-4.9t^2\\\Rightarrow 4.9t^2+4.5t-28=0\\\Rightarrow 49t^2+45t-280=0$

Solving the above equation we get

$t=\frac{-45+\sqrt{45^2-4\cdot \:49\left(-280\right)}}{2\cdot \:49}, \frac{-45-\sqrt{45^2-4\cdot \:49\left(-280\right)}}{2\cdot \:49}\\\Rightarrow t=1.97, -2.89$

So, the time the package was in the air is 1.97 seconds
