When the cart moves on an incline at constant speed, it is in equilibrium; i.e., the net force on it is zero. Does it require mo

Answer:

It requires more tension to pull up the track

Explanation:

Net force must be zero to maintain constant velocity.

Weight force will always be pointed down the slope. Call it W

Friction force (Call it Ff) will be down slope when movement is up slope.

Friction force will be up slope when movement is down slope.

W and Ff are always positive numbers

Call the pulling force T

If Up slope is considered the positive direction

Moving up slope

Tu - Ff - W = 0

Tu = Ff + W

Moving down slope

Td + W - Ff = 0

Td = Ff - W

Ff + W > Ff - W therefore Tu > Td

Two parallel wires carry currents in the same direction. If the currents in the wires are 1A and 4A and the wires are 5 m apart.
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

1.6\times 10^{-7} N

2.4\times 10^{-7} N

Explanation:

i_{1} = 1 A

i_{2} = 4 A

r = distance between the two wire = 5 m

F = Force per unit length acting between the two wires

Force per unit length acting between the two wires is given as

F = \frac{\mu _{o}}{4\pi }\frac{2i_{1}i_{2}}{r}

F = (10^{-7})\frac{2(1)(4)}{5}

F = 1.6\times 10^{-7} N

r'} = distance of each wire from the midpoint = 2.5 m

Magnetic field midway between the two wires is given as

B = \frac{\mu _{o}}{4\pi } \left \left ( \frac{2i_{2}}{r'} \right - \frac{2i_{1}}{r'} \right \right ))

B = (10^{-7}) \left \left ( \frac{2(4)}{2.5} \right - \frac{2(1)}{2.5} \right \right ))

B = 2.4\times 10^{-7}

A woman is applying 300N/m2 of pressure on to door with her hand. Her hand has area of 0.02m2. Work out the force being applied​
never [62]

Answer:

6N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Pressure applied by the woman  = 300N/m²

Area = 0.02m²

Unknown:

Force applied  = ?

Solution:

Pressure is the force per unit area on a body

        Pressure  = \frac{force}{area}

         Force  = Pressure x area

        Force  = 300 x 0.02  = 6N

A heavy solid disk rotating freely and slowed only by friction applied at its outer edge takes 120 seconds to come to a stop.
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

The time is 16 min.

Explanation:

Given that,

Time = 120 sec

We need to calculate the moment of inertia

Using formula of moment of inertia

I=\dfrac{1}{2}MR^2

If the disk had twice the radius and twice the mass

The new moment of inertia

I'=\dfrac{1}{2}\times2M\times(2R)^2

I'=8I

We know,

The torque is

\tau=F\times R

We need to calculate the initial rotation acceleration

Using formula of acceleration

\alpha=\dfrac{\tau}{I}

Put the value in to the formula

\alpha=\dfrac{F\times R}{\dfrac{1}{2}MR^2}

\alpha=\dfrac{2F}{MR}

We need to calculate the new rotation acceleration

Using formula of acceleration

\alpha'=\dfrac{\tau}{I'}

Put the value in to the formula

\alpha=\dfrac{F\times R}{8\times\dfrac{1}{2}MR^2}

\alpha=\dfrac{2F}{8MR}

\alpha=\dfrac{\alpha}{8}

Rotation speed is same.

We need to calculate the time

Using formula angular velocity

\Omega=\omega'

\alpha\time t=\alpha'\times t'

Put the value into the formula

\alpha\times120=\dfrac{\alpha}{8}\times t'

t'=960\ sec

t'=16\ min

Hence, The time is 16 min.
