Answer:

B. Newton's second law of motion

Explanation:

Newton's Second Law of Motion states that the acceleration of a physical object is directly proportional to the net force acting on the physical object and inversely proportional to its mass.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

$Net \; Force = mass * acceleration$

Making acceleration the subject of formula, we have;

$Acceleration = \frac {Net \; Force}{Mass}$

In this scenario, the acceleration of a baseball after it is hit by a bat depends on the mass of the ball and the net force on the ball. Thus, this example best illustrates Newton's second law of motion.

Light of wavelength 500 nm is incident perpendicularly from air on a film 10-4cm thick and of refractive index 1.375. Part of th

Marysya12 [62]

Answer

given,

wavelength (λ)= 500 n m

thickness of film= 10⁻⁴ cm

refractive index = μ = 1.375

distance traveled is double which is equal to 2 x 10⁻⁴ cm

a) Number of wave

$N = \dfrac{d}{\mu\lambda}$

$N = \dfrac{2 \times 10^{-6}}{1.375\times 500 \times 10^{-9}}$

N = 2.91

N = 3

b) phase difference is equal to

Reflection from the first surface has a 180° (½λ) phase change.

There is no phase change for the 2nd surface reflection and there is no phase difference for the 2nd wave having traveled an exact whole number of waves.

net phase difference = $180^0\times \dfrac{3}{2}$

= 270°

The magnetic field at the center of a 1.50-cm-diameter loop is 2.70 mT . Part A. What is the current in the loop?

elixir [45]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Diameter of the circular loop, d = 1.5 cm

Radius of the circular loop, r = 0.0075 m

Magnetic field, $B=2.7\ mT=2.7\times 10^{-3}\ T$

(A) We need to find the current in the loop. The magnetic field in a circular loop is given by :

$B=\dfrac{\mu_o I}{2r}$

$I=\dfrac{2Br}{\mu_o}$

$I=\dfrac{2\times 2.7\times 10^{-3}\times 0.0075}{4\pi \times 10^{-7}}$

I = 32.22 A

(b) The magnetic field on a current carrying wire is given by :

$B=\dfrac{\mu_o I}{2\pi r}$

$r=\dfrac{\mu_o I}{2\pi B}$

$r=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 32.22}{2\pi \times 2.7\times 10^{-3}}$

r = 0.00238 m

$r=2.38\times 10^{-3}\ m$

Hence, this is the required solution.

A vacuum cleaner produces sound with a measured sound level of 75.0 dB. (a) What is the intensity of this sound in W/m2? W/m2 (b

jonny [76]

Answer:

Part a)

$I = 3.16 \times 10^{-5} W/m^2$

Part b)

$P_o = 0.162 Pa$

Explanation:

Part a)

Level of sound = 75 dB

now we know that

$L = 10 Log\frac{I}{I_0}$

here we know that

$I_0 = 10^{-12} W/m^2$

now we have

$75 = 10 Log(\frac{I}{10^{-12}})$

$I = 3.16 \times 10^{-5} W/m^2$

Part b)

Intensity of sound wave is given as

$I = \frac{1}{2}\rho A^2\omega^2 c$

here we know that

$A = \frac{P_o}{Bk}$

so we have

$I = \frac{1}{2}\rho(\frac{P_o}{Bk})^2\omega^2 c$

$I = \frac{1}{2}\rho P_o^2 \frac{c^3}{B^2}$

now we know

$\rho = 1.2 kg/m^3$

$c = 340 m/s$

$B = 1.4 \times 10^5 Pa$

now we have

$3.16 \times 10^{-5} = \frac{1}{2}(1.2)P_o^2\frac{340^3}{(1.4\times 10^5)^2}$

$P_o = 0.162 Pa$

EleoNora [17]

Answer:

183333 Pa

Explanation:

The weight of the football player is : 550 N ,thus the force the player exerts on the floor is 550 N

The area of blades in contact with the floor is = 30cm² = 0.003 m²

Pressure = Force / Area

Pressure = 550 / 0.003

Pressure = 183333 Pa

What are the methods that are used for heat transfer

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Heat can travel from one place to another in three ways: Conduction, Convection and Radiation. Both conduction and convection require matter to transfer heat. If there is a temperature difference between two systems heat will always find a way to transfer from the higher to lower system.
