Answer:

It is made up of molecules which are pulled down to Earth by gravity. That pull makes molecules bump into each other, exerting pressure. Our bodies are specially adapted to living under 1 kilogram per square centimeter (14.7 pounds per square inch) of pressure pushing down on us at sea level!Oct 7, 2014

A chair exerts a force of 20 N on a floor and is not moving. What force does

AysviL [449]

The floor exerts 20 N of force on the chair

Explanation:

We can answer this question by using Newton's third law, which states that:

<em>"When an object A exerts a force (called action) on an object B, object B exerts an equal and opposite force (called reaction) on object A"</em>

In this problem, we can identify:

- Object A as the chair

- Object B as the floor

This means that the force of 20 N exerted by the chair on the floor is the action, and so the force exerted by the floor on the chair is the reaction. Newton's third law states that these two forces are equal and opposite: therefore, the force exerted by the floor on the chair is also 20 N, but in the opposite direction.

A solenoid of length 2.50 cm and radius 0.750 cm has 25 turns. If the wire of the solenoid has 1.85 amps of current, what is the

vfiekz [6]

Answer:

13.875 T

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Length of solenoid, L = 2.5 cm = 0.025 m

Radius of solenoid, r = 0.75 cm = 0.0075 m

Number of turns, N = 25 turns

Current, I = 1.85 A

Magnetic field, B, is given as:

B = (N*r*I) /L

B = (25 * 0.0075 * 1.85)/0.025

B = 13.875 T

A simple harmonic oscillator consists of a block (m = 0.50 kg) attached to a spring (k = 128 N/m). The block is pulled a certain

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

0.5 m

14.00595

8 m/s, 0.0625 s

5.71314 m/s

Explanation:

k = Spring constant = 128 N/m

A = Amplitude

E = Energy in spring = 16 J

Energy in spring is given by

$E=\dfrac{1}{2}kA^2\\\Rightarrow A=\sqrt{\dfrac{2E}{k}}\\\Rightarrow A=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 16}{128}}\\\Rightarrow A=0.5\ m$

The amplitude is 0.5 m

Time period is given by

$T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}\\\Rightarrow T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{0.5}{128}}\\\Rightarrow T=0.39269\ s$

Number of oscillations is given by

$N=\dfrac{5.5}{0.39269}\\\Rightarrow N=14.00595$

The number of oscillations is 14.00595

For maximum speed

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=16\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\dfrac{16\times 2}{0.5}}\\\Rightarrow v=8\ m/s$

The maximum speed is 8 m/s

For a distance of 0.5 m which is the amplitude

$Time=\dfrac{Distance}{Speed}\\\Rightarrow Time=\dfrac{0.5}{8}\\\Rightarrow Time=0.0625\ s$

The time taken would be 0.0625 s

The maximum kinetic energy is equal to the mechanical energy

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2+\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2=16$

At x = 0.35 m

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{16-\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2}{\dfrac{1}{2}m}}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\dfrac{16-\dfrac{1}{2}128\times 0.35^2}{\dfrac{1}{2}0.5}}\\\Rightarrow v=5.71314\ m/s$

The speed of the block is 5.71314 m/s
