Answer:

Tstring = 343.35 [N].

Explanation:

Since the block is in equilibrium, we can say that the sum of the forces on the Y-axis or vertical is equal to zero.

∑Fy = 0

$T_{string}-W=0$

where:

Tstring = tension of the string [N]

W = weight of the block [N]

And the weight can be calculated multiplying the mass of the block by the gravity acceleration.

Now replacing:

$T_{string}=m*g\\T_{string}=35*9.81\\T_{string}=343.35[N]$

OLga [1]

Answer:

(a), The SSD will be 723.9 ft.

(b-1), The SSD will be 620.2 ft.

(b-2), The SSD will be $723.91>SSD>620.2$

(c), The SSD will be 910.5 ft.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed = 70 mph

Suppose, a perception reaction time of 2.5 sec and the coefficient of friction is 0.35

We need to calculate the stopping sight distance

Using formula of SSD

$SSD=1.47\times v\times t+\dfrac{v^2}{30\times(f\pm g)}$

Where, v = speed of vehicle

t = perception reaction time

f = coefficient of friction

g = gradient of road

(a). If the gradient of road is zero.

Then, the stopping sight distance will be

$SSD=1.47\times 70\times 2.5+\dfrac{70^2}{30\times(0.35)}$

$SSD=723.9\ ft$

(b-1). If the gradient of road is 0.1

Then, the stopping sight distance will be

$SSD=1.47\times 70\times 2.5+\dfrac{70^2}{30\times(0.35+0.1)}$

$SSD=620.2\ ft$

(b-2). If the grade continuously decrease then the SSD will be increase.

But if the grade is increase then the SSD will be decrease and for flat grade the SSD will be more.

So, The SSD will be $723.91>SSD>620.2$

(c). When the vehicle is traveling downhill on a roadway of constant grade then the vehicle take will be more SSD

So, The SSD will be

$SSD=1.47\times 70\times 2.5+\dfrac{70^2}{30\times(0.35-0.1)}$

$SSD=910.5\ ft$

Hence, (a), The SSD will be 723.9 ft.

(b-1), The SSD will be 620.2 ft.

(b-2), The SSD will be $723.91>SSD>620.2$

(c), The SSD will be 910.5 ft.

A spherical capacitor is formed from two concentric spherical conducting shells separated by vacuum. The inner sphere has a radi

Svetlanka [38]

Answer: a) 73.41 10^-12 F; b)4.83* 10^3 N/C; c) 3.66 *10^3 N/C

Explanation: To solve this problem we have to consider the following: The Capacity= Charge/Potential Difference

As we know the capacity is value that depend on the geometry of the capacitor, in our case two concentric spheres.

So Potential Difference between the spheres is given by:

ΔV=- $\int\limits^a_b {E} \, dx$

Where E = k*Q/ r^2

so we have $\int\limits^a_b {K+Q1/r} \, dr$

then

Vb-Va=k*Q(1/b-1/a)=kQ (ab/b-a)

Finally using C=Q/ΔV=ab/(k(b-a))

To caclulate the electric firld we first obtain the charge

Q=ΔV*C=120 V*73.41 10^-12 F=8.8 10^-9 C

so E=KQ/r^2 for both values of r

r=12.8 cm ( in meters)

r2=14.7 cm

E(r1)=4.83* 10^3 N/C

E(r2)=3.66 *10^3 N/C

A small 16 kilogram canoe is floating downriver at a speed of 4 m/s. What is the canoe's kinetic energy?

seraphim [82]

Kinetic Energy,K.E=1/2MV²

mass,m=16kg

velocity,v=4m/s

K.E=1/2×16×4²

=128kgm²/s²

=128 Joules

Which location, 23 degrees or 48 degrees would experience the same earthquake at stronger intensity?Explain why.

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

48 degress

Explanation:

An earthquake causes many different intensities of shaking in the area of the epicenter where it occurs. So the intensity of an earthquake will vary depending on where you are. Sometimes earthquakes are referred to by the maximum intensity they produce. In the United States, we use the Modified Mercalli Scale. Earthquake intensity is a ranking based on the observed effects of an earthquake in each particular place. Therefore, each earthquake produces a range of intensity values, ranging from highest in the epicenter area to zero at a distance from the epicenter.
