Answer:

The force exerted by each string is 25 N

Explanation:

Net Force

The net force is the vector sum of forces acting on a body. The net force is a single force that represents the effect of the original forces on the body's motion. It gives the particle the same acceleration as all those actual forces together as described by Newton's second law of motion.

The picture described in the problem is hanging at rest supported by two vertical strings. This means that the net force acting on it is zero.

Assume the magnitude of each of these equal forces is F, and the picture has a weight of W=50 N, thus the net force is:

F + F - W

The positive signs indicate an upwards direction and the negative sign means a downwards direction. Since the net force is zero:

F + F - W = 0

2F = W

F = W/2 = 50 N/2

F = 25 N

The force exerted by each string is 25 N

A car approaches you at a constant speed, sounding its horn, and you hear a frequency of 76 Hz. After the car goes by, you hear

Talja [164]

Answer:

70.07 Hz

Explanation:

Since the sound is moving away from the observer then

$f_o = f_s\frac {(v+vs)}{v}$ and $f_o = f_s\frac {(v-vs)}{v}$ when moving towards observer

With $f_o$ of 76 then taking speed in air as 343 m/s we have

$76 = f_s\times\frac {(343-vs)}{343}$

$f_s=\frac {343\times 76}{343-v_s}$

Similarly, with $f_o$ of 65 we have

$65 = f_s\times\frac {(343+vs)}{343}\\f_s=\frac {343\times 65}{343+v_s}$

Now

$f_s=\frac {343\times 65}{343+v_s}=\frac {343\times 76}{343-v_s}$

v_s=27.76 m/s

Substituting the above into any of the first two equations then we obtain

$f_s=70.07 Hz$

A proton is initially moving west at a speed of 1.10 106 m/s in a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.281 T directed verticall

kifflom [539]

Answer:

so here it will move in circle with radius 4.06 cm

Explanation:

As we know that proton is moving towards west while the magnetic field is vertically upwards

So here the force on the proton must be perpendicular to the velocity

So here we have

$F = q(\vec v \times \vec B)$

so here we have

$F = qvB sin90$

since force is perpendicular to the velocity so here it must be centripetal force

here we have

$\frac{mv^2}{R} = qvB$

so we have

$R = \frac{mv}{qB}$

$R = \frac{(1.66 \times 10^{-27})(1.10 \times 10^6)}{(1.6 \times 10^{-19})(0.281)}$

$R = 4.06 cm$

so here it will move in circle with radius 4.06 cm

MissTica

The correct answer to this question is C - Gravity is a force. Gravity is also an example of a universal law. Well, according to Isaac Newton, anyway. According to Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation, 'every point mass attracts every single point mass by a force pointing along the line intersecting both paths.'

Particle A and particle B are held together with a compressed spring between them. When they are released, the spring pushes the

leonid [27]

Answer:

$KE_A=33\ J$

$KE_B=99\ J$

Explanation:

Given:

Let mass of the particle B be, $m_B=m$

then the mass of particle A, $m_A=3m$

Energy stored in the compressed spring, $E=132\ J$

Now when the compression of the particles with the spring is released, the spring potential energy must get converted into the kinetic energy of the particles and their momentum must be conserved.

Kinetic energy:

$\frac{1}{2}m_A.v_A^2+\frac{1}{2}m_B.v_B^2=132$
