It is late and Carlos is sliding down a rope from his third-floor window to meet his friend Juan. As he slides down the rope fas

ter and faster, he becomes frightened and grabs harder on the rope, increasing the tension in the rope. As soon as the upward tension in the rope becomes equal to his weight:

Answer:

It would help Carlos stop sliding down and he would stay in his place in the air.

Explanation:

According to Newton's 1st Law of Motion, a body is said to be at rest or uniform motion when no net force is acting on it. This explains that when the tension in the rope becomes equal to Carlos' weight, the net force becomes zero which means the body (Carlos), is at rest and remains in the air instead of sliding down the rope.

ss7ja [257]

Answer:

P = 1471500 [Pa]

Explanation:

We must remember that pressure is defined as the relationship between Force over the area.

P=F/A

where:

P = pressure [Pa] (units of pascals)

F = force [N] (units of Newtons)

A = area of contact = 4 [cm²]

But first we must convert from cm² to m²

A = 4[cm^{2}]*\frac{1^{2} m^{2} }{100^{2} cm^{2} }

A = 0.0004 [m²]

Also, the weight should be calculated as follows:

w = m*g

where:

m = mass = 60 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

Now replacing:

w = 60*9.81\\w = 588.6[N]

And the pressure:

P=588.6/0.0004\\P=1471500 [Pa]

Because 1 [Pa] = 1 [N/m²]

In a particular beam of radiation, which is traveling in a vacuum, the amounts of energy per second at an ultraviolet wavelength
Darina [25.2K]

Answer: d)

Explanation: In order to justify the answer we have to consider that the energy of photons directely depent on the frequency so the energy is inverselly dependent of the wavelegth.

If both beams have the same power, this means Energy/time so the number of photons per second must be different. As consequence a) is wrong as  b) since it is not posible since UV photon  have more energy that IR photons. c) It is no necessary know the frequency since the wavelength is related in the form:

c=λν  c is the speed of light, λ the wavelegth and ν the frequency.

d) Certainly will be more more IR photons than UV photons to get the same beam power.

What is the pressure at 5000 km below the surface of the earth
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

The centre of the earth is harder to study than the centre of the sun." Temperatures in the lower mantle the reach around 3,000-3,500 degrees Celsius and the barometer reads about 125 gigapascals, about one and a quarter million times atmospheric pressure.

Suppose a car of mass m is moving at a constant speed v of
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The angle of banked curve that makes the reliance on friction unnecessary is

\arcsin(v^2/(gR))

Explanation:

In order the car to stay on the curve without friction, the net force in the direction of radius should be equal or smaller than the centripetal force. Otherwise the car could slide off the curve.

The only force in the direction of radius is the sine component of the weight of the car

w_r = mg\sin(\theta)

The cosine component is equivalent to the normal force, which we will not be using since friction is unnecessary.

Newton’s Second Law states that

F_{net} = ma = mg\sin(\theta)\\\sin(\theta) = a/g

Also, the car is making a circular motion:

a = \frac{v^2}{R}

Combining the equations:

\sin(\theta) = \frac{a}{g} = \frac{v^2/R}{g} = \frac{v^2}{gR}

Finally the angle is

\arcsin(v^2/(gR))
