There are three forces acting on the book.
1. Force due to gravity
2. Force exerted downward by the hamster
3. Normal Force in reaction to the downward forces
Since the book is not moving, the net force is zero. The summation of all forces must be zero. Then we could find the normal force which is unknown (denoted as x).
∑F = -(4 kg)(9.81 m/s2) - 3 N + x =0
∑F = -39.24 N - 3N + x =0
x = 42 N
Therefore, the normal force is 42 N.
Answer:
16.2 days
Explanation:
Find the number of halflives:
1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4 so <u>two</u> halflives have passed
2 * 8.1 days = 16.2 days
Answer:
Explanation:
The problem is based on resolving power of instruments . Resolving power of instruments is related to wavelength of light as follows
resolving power of telescope ∝ 1 / λ
Higher the resolving power closer the object that can be looked separately.
Wave length of blue light is shorter than that of red light so resolving power in case of blue light will be higher. So we have better chance of distinguishing separate bulbs when color light is blue.
Answer:
= 0.7 A,
= 1.3 A and ε = 7.4 V
Explanation:
From the given circuit, applying Kirchhoff's rule;
Ammeter reading,
= 2 A
⇒
=
+
= 2 A
Dividing the circuit to loops 1 and 2.
a. From loop 1,
15 + 7
- 5
= 0
15 + 7
- 10 = 0 (since
= 2 A)
7
- 5 = 0
= 0.7 A
But,
=
+ 
⇒ 2 = 0.7 + 
= 1.3 A
b. From loop 2,
ε + 2
- 5
= 0
ε + 2
- 10 = 0
ε + 2.6 - 10 = 0
ε - 7.4 = 0
ε = 7.4 V
Therefore,
= 0.7 A,
= 1.3 A and ε = 7.4 V.
Answer:
2.598×
Explanation:
The length of the contraction is given by
here
is length of the ruler at rest which is given as 12 inches
l is the length of the ruler in moving condition which is given as 6 inches c is the speed of the light and v is the velocity of the ruler.
