In an experiment performed in a space station, a force of 74 N causes an object to have an acceleration equal to 9 m/s2. What is

the object's mass?
Physics
1 answer:
Stells [14]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 8.2 kg</h3>

Explanation:

The mass of the object can be found by using the formula

m =  \frac{f}{a}  \\

f is the force

a is the acceleration

From the question we have

m =  \frac{74}{9}  \\  = 8.222222...

We have the final answer as

<h3>8.2 kg</h3>

Hope this helps you

Choose all statements that are true about a GFCI outlet.
saveliy_v [14]

GFCI outlets are found in wet areas is the true statement about a GFCI oulet

Answer: Option D.

<u>Explanation: </u>

            GFCI stands for Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter and also named as RCD (Residual Current Device). This is a kind of circuit breaker that cuts off electricity after detecting an imbalance between output and input currents. The switch protects household lines and sockets against overheating and possible fire.  

              GFCI protects the people and is mostly used in bathrooms or kitchen where electrical equipment is used. Also, it is available where the human body can get into contact with the floor or metal fixings that provide an alternative route to power in the event of a fault. These outlets are available in two versions: the circuit breaker installed in the control panel and receptacle type installed into the electrical box.

Current flowing in a circuit depends on two variables. Identify these variables and their relationship to current.
joja [24]

Question is Incomplete, Complete question is given below.

Current flowing in a circuit depends on two variables. Identify these variables and their relationship to current.

A) Current is proportionate to the conductance of the circuit and precisely proportional to the voltage applied across the circuit.

B) Current is conversely proportional to the electrical tension of the circuit and corresponds to the resistance across the circuit.

C) Current is inversely proportional to the resistance of the circuit and directly proportional to the voltage applied across the circuit.

D) Current is commensurate to the resistance of the circuit and directly proportional to the electric pressure applied across the circuit.

Answer:

C) Current is inversely proportional to the resistance of the circuit and directly proportional to the voltage applied across the circuit.

Explanation:

Now Ohms Law states that, "So long as a physical state of a conductor remains the potential difference applied to the conductor is directly proportional to current flowing through it."

I ∝ V

V=IR also I=V/R

where R is the Resistance

Hence, From above equation we can say that Current increases when there is increase in Voltage but Current decreases as the resistance decreases.

Hence,Current is inversely proportional to the resistance of the circuit and directly proportional to the voltage applied across the circuit.

The spreading of waves behind an aperture is more for long wavelengths and less for short wavelengths.Less for long wavelengths
Allisa [31]

Answer:

Increase in wavelength of incident wave also increases the spread angle or spread of the interference pattern.

Explanation:

Solution:-

- The diffraction occurs when light bends in the same medium. The bending is the result of light waves "squeezing" through small openings or "curving" around sharp edges.

- Moreover, waves diffract best when the size of the diffraction opening (or grting or groove) corresponds to the size of the wavelength. Hence, light diffracts more through small openings than through larger openings.

- The formula for diffraction shows a direct relationship between the angle of diffraction (theta) and wavelength:

                                         d sin (θ) = m λ

Where,

     λ : Wavelength , θ : The spread angle , d : Slit opening or grating

- We can see that the wavelength λ and spread angle θ are related proportionally. So if we increase the wavelength of incident wave we also increase the spread angle or spread of the interference pattern.

Two kids are playing on a newly installed slide, which is 3 m long. John, whose mass is 30 kg, slides down into William (20 kg),
yuradex [85]

Answer:

v=3.564\ m.s^{-1}

\Delta v =2.16\ m.s^{-1}

Explanation:

Given:

  • mass of John, m_J=30\ kg
  • mass of William, m_W=30\ kg
  • length of slide, l=3\ m

(A)

height between John and William, h=1.8\ m

<u>Using the equation of motion:</u>

v_J^2=u_J^2+2 (g.sin\theta).l

where:

v_J = final velocity of John at the end of the slide

u_J = initial velocity of John at the top of the slide = 0

Now putting respective :

v_J^2=0^2+2\times (9.8\times \frac{1.8}{3})\times 3

v_J=5.94\ m.s^{-1}

<u>Now using the law of conservation of momentum at the bottom of the slide:</u>

<em>Sum of initial momentum of kids before & after collision must be equal.</em>

m_J.v_J+m_w.v_w=(m_J+m_w).v

where: v = velocity with which they move together after collision

30\times 5.94+0=(30+20)v

v=3.564\ m.s^{-1} is the velocity with which they leave the slide.

(B)

  • frictional force due to mud, f=105\ N

<u>Now we find the force along the slide due to the body weight:</u>

F=m_J.g.sin\theta

F=30\times 9.8\times \frac{1.8}{3}

F=176.4\ N

<em><u>Hence the net force along the slide:</u></em>

F_R=71.4\ N

<em>Now the acceleration of John:</em>

a_j=\frac{F_R}{m_J}

a_j=\frac{71.4}{30}

a_j=2.38\ m.s^{-2}

<u>Now the new velocity:</u>

v_J_n^2=u_J^2+2.(a_j).l

v_J_n^2=0^2+2\times 2.38\times 3

v_J_n=3.78\ m.s^{-1}

Hence the new velocity is slower by

\Delta v =(v_J-v_J_n)

\Delta v =5.94-3.78= 2.16\ m.s^{-1}
