Answer:

Please make sure to modify it so the teacher cant find out you used brainly

Explanation:

Teachers are begginng to catch on to the fact we are using brainly,quizlet and other sites for answers. If you do decide to use it please make sure you take the time to heavly modify it so that if the teachers use something to check if you copieed and paste it they cant find jack diddly squat.

Answer: In this lab we wanted to know how motion can be described. So the hypothesis is if the starting height of a sloped racetrack is increased, then the speed at which a toy car travels along the track will increase because the toy car will have a greater acceleration. My prediction is that cars travel faster on higher tracts. So the heighten the track was intentionally manipulated. So it is the independent variable the speed of the car is the dependent variable. The speed at the first quarter checkpoint is 1.09 m/s. The speed at the second quarter checkpoint is 1.95 m/s. The speed at the third quarter checkpoint is 2.373.36 m/s. The speed at the finish line is 2.803.00 m/s. The average speed increases as the height increases.

The cars on the higher track travel farther than the cars on the lower track, in the same time.

This means that the cars on the higher track have a greater average speed than those on the lower track. This is demonstrated by the

slope of the higher track line being greater than the slope of the lower track line.

A student attaches a rope to a 20.0 kg box of books. He pulls with a force of 90.0 N at an angle of 30 degrees with the horizont

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

The magnitude of the acceleration of the box is 2.01 m/s².

Explanation:

Hi there!

Please, see the attached figure for a graphical description of the problem.

We have the following horizontal forces:

Fr = friction force.

Fx = Horizontal component of the applied force, F.

And we have the following vertical forces:

Fy = vertical component of the applied force.

N = normal force exerted on the box.

W = weight of the box.

According to Newton´s second law:

∑F = m · a

Then, in the horizontal direction:

Fx - Fr = m · a

Where "m" is the mass of the box and "a" its acceleration.

Fx can be obtained by trigonometry (see figure):

Fx = F · cos 30°

Fx = 90.0 N · cos 30°

Fr is calculated as follows:

Fr = μ · N

Where μ is the coefficient of friction and N the normal force.

So, we have to find the magnitude of the normal force.

Using Newton´s second law in the vertical direction:

∑F = N + Fy - W = m · a

Notice that the box has no vertical acceleration, then:

N + Fy - W = 0

Solving for N:

N = W - Fy

The weight is calculated as follows:

W = m · g

Where g is the acceleration due to gravity:

W = 20.0 kg · 9.8 m/s² = 196 N

And the vertical component of the applied force can be obtained by trigonometry:

Fy = F · sin 30°

Fy = 90.0 N · sin 30°

The normal force will be:

N = W - Fy = 196 N - 90.0 N · sin 30°

N = 151 N

Now, we can calculate the friction force:

Fr = μ · N

Fr = 0.250 · 151 N

Fr = 37.8 N

And now, we can obtain the acceleration of the box:

Fx - Fr = m · a

(Fx - Fr) / m = a

(90.0 N · cos 30° - 37.8 N ) / 20.0 kg = a

a = 2.01 m/s²

The magnitude of the acceleration of the box is 2.01 m/s².

A 1.4-kg cart is attached to a horizontal spring for which the spring constant is 50 N/m . The system is set in motion when the

marin [14]

Answer:

0.395 m

2.4 m/s

Explanation:

$m$ = mass of the cart = 1.4 kg

$k$ = spring constant of the spring = 50 Nm⁻¹

$x$ = initial position of spring from equilibrium position = 0.21 m

$v_{i}$ = initial speed of the cart = 2.0 ms⁻¹

$A$ = amplitude of the oscillation = ?

Using conservation of energy

Final spring energy = initial kinetic energy + initial spring energy

$(0.5) kA^{2} = (0.5) m v_{i}^{2} + (0.5) k x_{i}^{2} \\kA^{2} = m v_{i}^{2} + k x_{i}^{2} \\(50) A^{2} = (1.4) (2.0)^{2} + (50) (0.21)^{2} \\A = 0.395 m$

$m$ = mass of the cart = 1.4 kg

$k$ = spring constant of the spring = 50 Nm⁻¹

$A$ = amplitude of the oscillation = 0.395 m

$v_{o}$ = maximum speed at the equilibrium position

Using conservation of energy

Kinetic energy at equilibrium position = maximum spring potential energy at extreme stretch of the spring

$(0.5) m v_{o}^{2} = (0.5) kA^{2}\\m v_{o}^{2} = kA^{2}\\(1.4) v_{o}^{2} = (50) (0.395)^{2}\\v_{o} = 2.4 ms^{-1}$

Plane polarized light with intensity I0 is incident on a polarizer. What angle should the principle axis make with respenct to t

Nataliya [291]

Answer:

Q = 47.06 degrees

Explanation:

Given:

- The transmitted intensity I = 0.464 I_o

- Incident Intensity I = I_o

Find:

What angle should the principle axis make with respect to the incident polarization

Solution:

- The relation of transmitted Intensity I to to the incident intensity I_o on a plane paper with its principle axis is given by:

I = I_o * cos^2 (Q)

- Where Q is the angle between the Incident polarized Light and its angle with the principle axis. Hence, Using the relation given above:

Q = cos ^-1 (sqrt (I / I_o))

- Plug the values in:

Q = cos^-1 ( sqrt (0.464))

Q = cos^-1 (0.6811754546)

Q = 47.06 degrees
