Hi = L(1 – cos theta), theta = 40

A chain has a mass of 10.0 kg. It is hanging freely, at rest, with one end connected to a ceiling hook.

Elza [17]

Answer:

Identify the object to be analyzed. For some systems in equilibrium, it may be necessary to consider more than one object. Identify all forces acting on the object. Identify the questions you need to answer. Identify the information given in the problem. In realistic problems, some key information may be implicit in the situation rather than provided explicitly.

A physics student stands on a cliff overlooking a lake and decides to throw a softball to her friends in the water below. She th

aliina [53]

Answer:

58.5 m

Explanation:

First of all, we need to find the total time the ball takes to reach the water. This can be done by looking at the vertical motion only.

The initial vertical velocity of the ball is

$u_y = u sin \theta$

where

u = 21.5 m/s is the initial speed

$\theta=33.5^{\circ}$ is the angle

Substituting,

$u_y = (21.5) sin 33.5^{\circ} =11.9 m/s$

The vertical position of the ball at time t is given by

$y = h + u_y t + \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

where

h = 13.5 m is the initial heigth

$g = -9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity (negative sign because it points downward)

The ball reaches the water when y = 0, so

$0 = h + u_yt +\frac{1}{2}gt^2\\0 = 13.5 +11.9 t - 4.9t^2$

Which gives two solutions: t = 3.27 s and t = -0.84 s. We discard the negative solution since it is meaningless.

The horizontal velocity of the ball is

$u_y = u cos \theta = (21.5) cos 33.5^{\circ} =17.9 m/s$

And since the motion along the horizontal direction is a uniform motion, we can find the horizontal distance travelled by the ball as follows:

$d= u_x t = (17.9)(3.27)=58.5 m$

Why you do scientists collect multiple trials?

sergiy2304 [10]

"When we do experiments it's a good idea to do multiple trials, that is, do the same experiment lots of times. When we do multiple trials of the same experiment, we can make sure that our results are consistent and not altered by random events. Multiple trials can be done at one time."

Two rigid tanks of equal size and shape are filled with different gases. The tank on the left contains oxygen, and the tank on t

fredd [130]

Answer:

The number of oxygen molecules in the left container greater than the number of hydrogen molecules in the right container.

Explanation:

Given:

Molar mass of oxygen, $M_O=32$

Molar mass of hydrogen, $M_H=2$

We know ideal gas law as:

$PV=nRT$

where:

P = pressure of the gas

V = volume of the gas

n= no. of moles of the gas molecules

R = universal gs constant

T = temperature of the gas

∵ $n=\frac{m}{M}$

where:

m = mass of gas in grams

M = molecular mass of the gas

∴Eq. (1) can be written as:

$PV=\frac{m}{M}.RT$

$P=\frac{m}{V}.\frac{RT}{M}$

as: $\frac{m}{V}=\rho\ (\rm density)$

So,

$P=\rho.\frac{RT}{M}$

Now, according to given we have T,P,R same for both the gases.

$P_O=P_H$

$\rho_O.\frac{RT}{M_O}=\rho_H.\frac{RT}{M_H}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{\rho_O}{32}=\frac{\rho_H}{2}$

$\rho_O=16\rho_H$

∴The molecules of oxygen are more densely packed than the molecules of hydrogen in the same volume at the same temperature and pressure. So, <em>the number of oxygen molecules in the left container greater than the number of hydrogen molecules in the right container.</em>
