Answer:

Net Force = 10N

Acceleration = 2m/s^2

Explanation:

calculate the net force and the acceleration on the block

Net force on the block F = mass * acceleration

Net force acting in the positive direction = 4N + 6N = 10N

Mass = 5kg

According to newton's second law;

a = F/m

a = 10N/5

a = 2m/s^2

hence the acceleration on the block is 2m/s^2

PAPER CLIPS ON NOSE OF A PAPER AIRPLANE

Purpose: To determine if the number of paperclips on the nose of a paper airplane affects the velocity and speed, measured in meters per seconds.

Make a Hypothesis Based on the Learning Thus Far: If the number of paperclips on the nose of a paper airplane increases, then the speed will _increase______ (increase, decrease, stay the same) in a __linear_______ (linear, exponential, logarithmic) mathematical relationship, and the velocity will (increase, decrease, stay the same) in a __exponential____ (linear, exponential, logarithmic) mathematical relationship. (Fill in the appropriate words for your hypothesis.)

Pictures: Insert at least 3 pictures of yourself conducting the experiment into this lab report. At least 2 pictures must show your face as you conduct the investigation. You may need to ask someone to help take these photos.

A flat sheet of paper of area 0.365 m2 is oriented so that the normal to the sheet is at an angle of 60 ∘ to a uniform electric

andriy [413]

Answer:

A.) 3.65 N*m²/C B) No C) 0º D) 90º

Explanation:

A) The electric flux, when the electric field is uniform across a gausssian surface, can be calculated as the dot product of the electric field vector, and the vector representing the area of the surface (normal to the surface and directed outward it by convention), as follows:

Flux = E*A*cos φ

where E = 20 N/C, A = 0.365 m², φ = 60º.

Replacing by the values, we can get the value of the electric flux, as follows:

Flux = 20 N/C* 0.365 m²*0.5 = 3.65 N*m²/C

B) While the area remains constant, and doesn't change orientation, the value of the flux will be the same, regardless the shape of the sheet.

C) When the normal to the sheet and the electric field are parallel each other, the surface will intercept the maximum number of field lines, i.e. the flux will be directly E*A*cos 0º = E*A (maximum value possible).

D) When the electric field is tangent to the surface, this means that no field lines will be intercepted by the sheet, so the flux is zero.

In this case, φ = 90º, cos φ = 0

⇒ E*A*cos 90º = E*A*0 = 0

What is the frequency of a wave having a period equal to 18 seconds <br>

Ivanshal [37]

Explanation:

The time taken by a wave crest to travel a distance equal to the length of wave is known as wave period.

The relation between wave period and frequency is as follows.

T = \frac{1}{f}T=

where, T = time period

f = frequency

It is given that wave period is 18 seconds. Therefore, calculate the wave period as follows.

T = \frac{1}{f}T=

or, f = \frac{1}{T}f=

= \frac{1}{18 sec}

18sec

= 0.055 per second (1cycle per second = 1 Hertz)

or, f = 5.5 \times 10^{-2} hertz5.5×10 −2 hertz

<h3>Thus, we can conclude that the frequency of the wave is 5.5 \times 10^{-2} hertz5.5×10 −2 hertz .</h3>

Joey is riding in an elevator which is accelerating upwards at 2.0 m/s2. The elevator weighs 300.0 kg, and Joey weighs 60.0 kg.

vodka [1.7K]

4200 N is the tension in the cable that pulls the elevator upwards.

The correct option is A.

<h3>What does tension ?</h3>

Tension is the force that is sent through a rope, thread, or wire whenever two opposing forces pull on it. Along the whole length of the wire, the tensile stress pulls equally on all objects at the ends. Every physical object that comes into contact with that other one exerts force on it.

<h3>Briefing:</h3>

We employ the following formula to determine the cable's tension.

Formula:

T = mg+ma............ Equation 1

Where:

T is the cable's tension.

M = Mass of the elevator and the Joey

Accelerating with a

g = Gravitational acceleration

Considering the query,

Given:

m = (300+60) = 360 kg

a = 2 m/s²

g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 2

T = (360×9.8)+(360×2)

T = 3528+720

T = 4248 N

T ≈ 4200 to the nearest hundred.
