A truck with a heavy load has a total mass of 7100 kg. It is climbing a 15∘ incline at a steady 15 m/s when, unfortunately, the
Andrej [43]

Answer:

The load has a mass of 2636.8 kg

Explanation:

Step 1 : Data given

Mass of the truck = 7100 kg

Angle = 15°

velocity = 15m/s

Acceleration = 1.5 m/s²

Mass of truck = m1 kg

Mass of load = m2 kg

Thrust from engine = T

Step 2:

⇒ Before the load falls off, thrust (T) balances the component of total weight downhill:

T = (m1+m2)*g*sinθ

⇒ After the load falls off, thrust (T) remains the same but downhill component of weight becomes  m1*gsinθ .

Resultant force on truck is F = T – m1*gsinθ  

F causes the acceleration of the truck: F= m*a

This gives the equation:

T – m1*gsinθ = m1*a  

T = m1(a + gsinθ)

Combining both equations gives:

(m1+m2)*g*sinθ = m1*(a + gsinθ)

m1*g*sinθ + m2*g*sinθ =m1*a + m1*g*sinθ

m2*g*sinθ = m1*a

Since m1+m2 = 7100kg, m1= 7100 – m2. This we can plug into the previous equation:

m2*g*sinθ = (7100 – m2)*a

m2*g*sinθ = 7100a – m2a

m2*gsinθ + m2*a = 7100a

m2* (gsinθ + a) = 7100a

m2 = 7100a/(gsinθ  + a)

m2 = (7100 * 1.5) / (9.8sin(15°) + 1.5)

m2 = 2636.8 kg

The load has a mass of 2636.8 kg

A circular track has a radius of 50m.What is the displacement?
stepladder [879]

The displacement of a moving object is the straight-line distance between the place it starts from and the place where it stops.

The displacement of anything moving along a circular track depends on how  far around it goes before it stops.  The greatest displacement it can possibly have is the diameter of the track ... 100m on this particular one ... because that's as far apart as two places on a circle can ever be.

The most interesting case is when the object goes around the circle exactly once.  Then it stops at the same place it started from, the distance between the starting point and ending point is zero, and after all that motion, the displacement is zero.

The intensity of an earthquake wave passing through the earth is measured to be 2.5×106 j/(m2⋅s) at a distance of 43 km from the
vampirchik [111]

r₁ = distance of the point from the source = 43 km = 43000 m

I₁ = intensity of earthquake wave at distance "r₁" = 2.5 x 10⁶ W/m²

r₂ = distance of the point from the source = 1.5 km = 1500 m

I₂ = intensity of earthquake wave at distance "r₂" = ?

we know that , for a constant power , the intensity of wave is inversely proportional to the distance from the source .

I α 1/r²             where I = intensity of wave , r = distance from source

hence we can write

I₁/I₂ = r₂²/r₁²

inserting the values

(2.5 x 10⁶) /I₂ = (1500/43000)²

I₂ = 2.1 x 10⁹ W/m²

What provides the source of the earth’s magnetic field?
ololo11 [35]
<h2>Answer: the core of the earth</h2>

The explanation accepted by science until now, indicates that Earth's magnetic field is generated in the deepest of the terrestrial nucleus.

This is due to the movements of liquid metals in the core of the planet.

To explain it in more detail:

Right in the center of the Earth there is an internal core of solid iron at a very high temperature, this iron is as hot as the surface of the Sun, however, the pressure caused by the gravity force prevents it from becoming liquid. Around this inner core is the outer core, a layer of approximately 2000 km thick, composed of iron, nickel and small amounts of other metals in liquid state. Due to the lower pressure of the outer core, in relation to the inner core, the metal here is fluid (molten).

The differences in temperature, pressure and composition within the outer core cause convection currents in the molten metal, as the cold, dense matter sinks, and the warm, less dense matter rises. In addition, the Coriolis force, resulting from the spin of the Earth, also causes eddies in this mixture of molten metals.

This is how the movement of liquid iron inside the Earth generates electric currents, which in turn produce magnetic fields, and the spiral caused by the Coriolis force causes the magnetic fields to align in approximately the same direction, being this combined effect added to produce a vast magnetic field that envelops the entire planet.

This field extends from the terrestrial nucleus, progressively attenuating itself in outer space. However, it should be noted that unlike the field of a bar magnet, the Earth's magnetic field changes over time because it is actually generated by the movement of the iron alloys in the Earth's outer core, which causes the poles to move.
