Answer: The final answer is 1,700 J

Explanation: According to first law of thermodynamics:

=Final energy-initial energy=Change in internal energy

q = heat absorbed or released

w = work done by or on the system

w = work done by the system= {Work done by the system is negative as the final volume is greater than initial volume}

q = +500J {Heat absorbed by the system is positive}

w = work done by the system = -300J

U2- 1500J= + 500J --300J

U2= 1700J

A straight 1.20 m long conductor has a 2.00 A current travelling toward the East. Earth's magnetic field in this location is 4.9

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

Force's magnitude $=1.176\,10^{-4}\,N$

Direction: down (towards the center of the Earth)

Explanation:

Recall that the magnetic force on a conductor of length L carrying a current I in a magnetic field B is given by the equation: $F=I\,L\,B$ in the case the magnetic field B and the direction of the current are at 90 degrees from each other (which is our case). The direction of the force will be given by the "right hand rule" associated with the vector product that defines this force.

Since the current is moving East, and the magnetic field of the Earth goes from North to South, the resultant Force vector will be pointing towards the Earth (and perpendicular to the plane defined by the current's direction and the magnetic field B)

The magnitude of the force, is given by the formula above, and given that all quantities to be considered are is SI units, it will result in Newtons (N):

$F=I\,L\,B\\F=2\,*\,1.2\,*\,4.9\,10^{-5}\,N\\F=1.176\,10^{-4}\,N$

An object with mass 3.5 kg is attached to a spring with spring stiffness constant k = 270 N/m and is executing simple harmonic m

Elanso [62]

Answer:

Part a)

A = 0.066 m

Part b)

maximum speed = 0.58 m/s

Explanation:

As we know that angular frequency of spring block system is given as

$\omega = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$

here we know

m = 3.5 kg

k = 270 N/m

now we have

$\omega = \sqrt{\frac{270}{3.5}}$

$\omega = 8.78 rad/s$

Part a)

Speed of SHM at distance x = 0.020 m from its equilibrium position is given as

$v = \omega \sqrt{A^2 - x^2}$

$0.55 = 8.78 \sqrt{A^2 - 0.020^2}$

$A = 0.066 m$

Part b)

Maximum speed of SHM at its mean position is given as

$v_{max} = A\omega$

$v_{max} = 0.066(8.78) = 0.58 m/s$

A 2 nC point charge is at the origin, and a second 5 nC point charge is on the x-axis at x = 8 m. Find the electric field (magni

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric field is 5.75 N/C towards positive x- axis.

Explanation:

Given that,

Point charge at origin = 2 nC

Second charge = 5 nC

Distance at x axis = 8 m

We need to calculate the electric field at the point x = 2 m

Using formula of electric field

$E=\dfrac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_{0}}(\dfrac{q_{1}}{r_{1}^2}+\dfrac{q_{2}}{r_{2}^2})$

Put the value into the formula

$E=9\times10^{9}\times(\dfrac{2\times10^{-9}}{2^2}+\dfrac{5\times10^{-9}}{(8-2)^2})$

$E=5.75\ N/C$

The direction is toward positive x- axis.

Hence, The magnitude of the electric field is 5.75 N/C towards positive x- axis.

A balloon is expanded to the same volume as that of a human head. Do an order-of-magnitude estimate of the volume of this balloo

cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

Volume of balloon = 1000 cm^3

Explanation:

The head of a normal person can be assumed as a sphere with radius 10 cm.

Volume of sphere $=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3$ , where r is the radius.

We have approximate radius = 10 cm.

Approximate volume of head $=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3=\frac{4}{3} *\pi* 10^3=4188cm^3$

In the given options the closest value to the approximate volume is 1000 cm^3.

So, volume of head = Volume of balloon = 1000 cm^3
