A scale reads 184 N when a piece of copper is hanging from it. What does it read (in N) when it is lowered so that the copper is

submerged in water?

Answer:

163 N

Explanation:

The density of copper is about 8.96. The ratio of the weight in water to the weight in air is about 1-1/ρ, so is about 0.8884.

0.8884 × 184 N ≈ 163 N

The submerged weight is about 163 N.

We wrap a light, nonstretching cable around a 8.00 kg solid cylinder with diameter of 30.0 cm. The cylinder rotates with negligi

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

h = 16.67m

Explanation:

If the kinetic energy of the cylinder is 510J:

$Kc=510=1/2*Ic*\omega c^2$

$\omega c=\sqrt{510*2/Ic}$

Where the inertia is given by:

$Ic=1/2*m_c*R_c^2=1/2*(8)*(0.15)^2=0.0225kg.m^2$

Replacing this value:

$\omega c=106.46rad/s$

Speed of the block will therefore be:

$V_b=\omega_c*R_c=106.46*0.15=15.969m/s$

By conservation of energy:

Eo = Ef

Eo = 0

$Ef = 510+1/2*m_b*V_b^2-m_b*g*h$

So,

$0 = 510+1/2*m_b*V_b^2-m_b*g*h$

Solving for h we get:

h=16.67m

A man does 4,780 J of work in the process of pushing his 2.70 103 kg truck from rest to a speed of v, over a distance of 25.5 m.

wolverine [178]

Answer:

(A) Velocity will be 1.88 m/sec

(b) Force will be 187.45 N

Explanation:

We have given work done = 4780 j

Distance d = 25.5 m

(A) Mass of the truck m = $m=2.70\times 10^3kg$

We know that kinetic energy is given by

$KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

So $v=\sqrt{\frac{2KE}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 4780}{2.7\times 10^3}}=1.88m/sec$

(B) We know that work done is given by

W = Fd

So $F=\frac{W}{d}=\frac{4780}{25.5}=187.45N$

What is the energy range (in joules) of photons of wavelength 410 nm to 750 nm ? Express your answers using two significant figu

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

4.9 x 10^-19 J, 2.7 x 10^-19 J

Explanation:

first wavelength, λ1 = 410 nm = 410 x 10^-9 m

Second wavelength, λ2 = 750 nm = 750 x 10^-9 m

The relation between the energy and the wavelength is given by

E = h c / λ

Where, h is the Plank's constant and c be the velocity of light.

h = 6.63 x 10^-34 Js

c = 3 x 10^8 m/s

So, energy correspond to first wavelength

E1 = (6.63 x 10^-34 x 3 x 10^8) / (410 x 10^-9) = 4.85 x 10^-19 J

E1 = 4.9 x 10^-19 J

So, energy correspond to second wavelength

E2 = (6.63 x 10^-34 x 3 x 10^8) / (750 x 10^-9) = 2.652 x 10^-19 J

E2 = 2.7 x 10^-19 J

Stels [109]

Resistors Working Together.

Resistors are shown coupled in parallel to a voltage source in Figure 10.3.4. When all of the resistors' ends are connected to one another by a continuous wire of minimal resistance and their other ends are also connected to one another by a continuous wire of minimal resistance, the resistors are said to be in parallel. There is a constant potential drop across all resistors. Ohm's law, I=V/R, can be used to determine the current flowing through each resistor while the voltage is constant across each resistor. For instance, the headlights, radio, and other components of an automobile are linked in parallel so that each subsystem can use the entire voltage of the source and function independently. The wiring in your home or any other structure shares the same

The original circuit is shown in part a with two parallel resistors linked to a voltage source, and the equivalent circuit is shown in part b with one equivalent resistor connected to the voltage source.
