Answer:

a) Fg = -27.4 N

b) Fnet = 5.2 N

c) a = 1.9 m/s2

Explanation:

a)

  • There are two forces acting on the ball, one directed upward (assuming this direction as positive, along the y-axis) which is the tension on the string (lifting force), and another aimed downward, which is the attractive force due to gravity.
  • Applying the Newton's Universal Law of Gravitation to a mass close to the surface of the Earth (in this case the ball), we can take the acceleration due to gravity like a constant, that we call by convention g, equal to -9.8 m/s2.
  • So, we can write the following expression for Fg:

       F_{g} = m*g = 2.8 kg*(-9.8m/s2) = -27.4 N (1)

b)

  • The net force on the ball, will be just the difference between the lifting force (32.6 N) and the force due to gravity, Fg:

       F_{net} = T -F_{g} = 32.6 N - 27.4 N = 5.2 N  (2)

c)

  • According Newton's 2nd Law, the acceleration caused by a net force on a point mass (we can take the ball as one) is given by the following expression:

       a = \frac{F_{net} }{m} = \frac{5.2N}{2.8kg} = 1.9 m/s2  (3)

A tetrahedron has an equilateral triangle base with 25.0-cm-long edges and three equilateral triangle sides. The base is paralle
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

electric flux through the three side = 2.35 N m²/C

Explanation:

given,

equilateral triangle of base = 25 cm

electric field strength = 260 N/C

Area of triangle = \dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{4}a^2

                          =  \dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{4} 0.25^2

                          = 0.0271 m³

electric flux = E. A

                   = 260 × 0.0271

                   = 7.046 N m²/C

since, tetrahedron does not enclose any charge so, net flux through tetrahedron is zero.

electric flux through the three side = (electric flux through base)/3

                               = \dfrac{7.046}{3}

electric flux through the three side = 2.35 N m²/C

Estimate the force required to bind the two protons in the He nucleus together. (Hint: Model the protons as point charges. Assum
scoray [572]

Answer:

 F = 2.30 10⁴ N

Explanation:

The force required to link two gates must be equal to or greater than the electrostatic force of repulsion, because the protons have equal charges.

                 F = k q₁ q₂ / r²

Where k is the Coulomb constant that is worth 8.99 10⁹ N m² / C²

   In this case the proton charge is 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ C and the distance between them is approximately the diameter of the core r = 10⁻¹⁵ m

Let's calculate

              F = 8.99 10⁹ (1.6 10⁻¹⁹)² / (10⁻¹⁵)²

              F = 2.30 10⁴ N

The bond strength must be equal to or greater than this value

Estimate how long a 2500 W electric kettle would take to boil away 1.5 Kg of water . The specific latent heat of vaporization of
andrew-mc [135]

The time it would take a 2500 W electric kettle to boil away 1.5 Kg of water is 2400 seconds

<h3>How to calculate the time</h3>

Use the formula:

Power × time = mass × specific heat

Given mass = 1. 5kg

Specific latent heat of vaporization = 4000000 J/ Kg

Power = 2500 W

Substitute the values into the formula

Power × time = mass × specific heat

2500 × time = 1. 5 × 4000000

Make 'time' the subject

time = 1. 5 × 4000000 ÷ 2500 = 6000000 ÷ 2500 = 2400 seconds

Therefore, the time it would take a 2500 W electric kettle to boil away 1.5 Kg of water is 2400 seconds.
