The complete question is :

A hot-air balloon has a volume of 2100 m3 . The balloon fabric (the envelope) weighs 860 N . The basket with gear and full propane tanks weighs 1300 N .

If the balloon can barely lift an additional 3400 N of passengers, breakfast, and champagne when the outside air density is 1.23kg/m3, what is the average density of the heated gases in the envelope?

Solution :

Given volume of the hot air balloon $=2100 \ m^3$

The balloon fabric weights = 860 N

The weight of the basket with the gear and propane tank = 1300 N

Density of outside air $= 1.23 \ kg/m^3$

∴  Total pay load = Weight of the air displaced - weight of gas inside the balloon

Total pay load = 860 + 1300 + 3400

                        = 5560 N

Mass = density x volume

Weight  $= \text{mass} \times g$

Weight = volume x density $\times \text{ acceleration due to gravity (g)}$

Weight of the displaced air = 2100 x 1.23 x 9.8

                                             = 25313 N

Weight of the gas inside the balloon = density $\times \text{ acceleration due to gravity (g)}$ x volume

                                                             = density x 9.8 x 2100

                                                             = density x 20580 N

Therefore substituting the values, we get

⇒ 25313 - (density x 20580) = 5560

⇒ density $=\frac{19753}{20580}$

                 $= 0.96 \ kg/m^3$

So the density of the heated gas $= 0.96 \ kg/m^3$

Answer:

41°

Explanation:

Kinetic energy at bottom = potential energy at top

½ mv² = mgh

½ v² = gh

h = v²/(2g)

h = (2.4 m/s)² / (2 × 9.8 m/s²)

h = 0.294 m

The pendulum rises to a height of  above the bottom.  To determine the angle, we need to use trigonometry (see attached diagram).

L − h = L cos θ

cos θ = (L − h) / L

cos θ = (1.2 − 0.294) / 1.2

θ = 41.0°

Rounded to two significant figures, the pendulum makes a maximum angle of 41° with the vertical.

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer: Fmax = 5.54*10^-12 N

Explanation: From the question, we have the potential difference (V) =20kv = 20,000v and strength of magnetic field (B) =0.41 T.

The maximum force experienced by a charge of magnitude (q) is given as

Fmax = qvB

Where v = velocity of electron.

The velocity of the electron can be gotten by using the work energy theorem.

The kinetic energy of the electron (mv²/2) equals the work done needed to accelerate it.

mv²/2 = qV.

Where m = mass of an electronic charge = 9.11×10^-31 kg, q = magnitude of an electronic charge = 1.609×10^-19 c, v = velocity of electron, V = potential difference = 20,000v.

By substituting the parameters, we have that

(9.11×10^-31 × v²)/2 = 1.609×10^-19 × 20000

(9.11×10^-31 × v²) = 1.609×10^-19 × 20000 ×2

v² = (1.609×10^-19 × 20000 ×2)/9.11×10^-31

v² = 64.36*10^(-16)/9.11×10^-31

v² = 7.0647×10^15

v = √7.0647×10^15

v = 8.40×10^7 m/s

Fmax = 1.609×10^-19 × 8.40×10^7 × 0.41

Fmax = 5.54*10^-12 N
