Answer:

When while light is diffracted and at a particular location blue color is seen, this means that blue color is reflected while all other colors will be absorbed. When the blue color is seen denotes the shortest wavelength being reflected and all other being absorbed at the specified location.

Answer:

This is because white light consists of 7 colours with different angles o deviation or retraction.

Explanation:

When a narrow beam of light is refracted by a prism the light spreads into a band of colours (called the spectrum of light )

But in this case if a blue colour is observed it is due to the angle of refraction ,for instance red is refracted the least and hence is seen

Two 13 cm -long thin glass rods uniformly charged to +11nC are placed side by side, 4.0 cm apart. What are the electric field st

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

E1 = 10.15 * 10^4 N/C

E2 = 0

E3 = 10.15 *10^4 N/C

Explanation:

Given data:

Two 13 cm-long thin glass rods ( L ) = 0.13 m

charge (Q) = +11nC

distance between thin glass rods = 4 cm .

<u>Calculate the electric field strengths </u>

electric charge due to a single glass rod in the question ( E ) = $\frac{Q}{2\pi e_{0}rL }$

equation 1 can be used to determine E1, E2 and E3 because the points lie within the two rods hence the net electric field produced will be equal to the difference in electric fields produced

applying equation 1 to determine E1

E1 = $\frac{Q}{2\pi e_{0}rL }$ $( \frac{1}{0.01} - \frac{1}{0.03} )$ ( distance from 1 rod is 0.01 m and from the other rod is 0.03 )

= $\frac{11*10^{-9} }{2*3.14*8.85*10^{-12}*0.13 } ( 66.67 )$

= 10.15 * 10^4 N/C

applying equation 1 to determine E2

E2 = $\frac{Q}{2\pi e_{0}rL }$ $( \frac{1}{0.02} - \frac{1}{0.02} )$

therefore E2 = 0

E1 = E3

hence E3 = 10.15*10^4 N/C

A single mass (m1 = 3.5 kg) hangs from a spring in a motionless elevator. The spring constant is k = 278 N/m. 1)What is the dist

artcher [175]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

0.126m

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

According to Hooke's law, the force (F) acting on a spring to cause an extension or compression (e) is given by;

F = k x e -------------------(i)

Where;

k = the spring's constant.

From the question, the force acting on the spring is the weight(W) of the mass. i.e

F = W -----------------------(ii)

<em>But;</em>

W = m x g;

where;

m = mass of the object

g = acceleration due to gravity [usually taken as 10m/s²]

<em>From equation (ii), it implies that;</em>

F = W = m x g

<em>Now substitute F = m x g into equation(i) as follows;</em>

F = k x e

m x g = k x e ------------------(iii)

<em>From the question;</em>

m = m1 = 3.5kg

k = 278N/m

<em>Substitute these values into equation (iii) as follows;</em>

3.5 x 10 = 278 x e

35 = 278e

<em>Now solve for e;</em>

e = 35/278

e = 0.126m

Therefore, the distance the spring is stretched from its unstretched length (which is the same as the extension of the spring) is 0.126m

A close coiled helical spring of round steel wire 10 mm diameter having 10 complete turns with a mean radius of 60 mm is subject

kow [346]

Answer:

The deflection of the spring is 34.56 mm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Diameter = 10 mm

Number of turns = 10

$Radius_{mean} = 60\ mm$

$Diameter_{mean} = 120\ mm$

Load = 200 N

We need to calculate the deflection

Using formula of deflection

$\delta=\dfrac{8pD^3n}{Cd^4}$

Put the value into the formula

$\delta=\dfrac{8\times200\times(120)^3\times10}{80\times10^{3}\times10^4}$

$\delta =34.56\ mm$

Hence, The deflection of the spring is 34.56 mm.

According to the text, there is no energy shortage now, nor will there ever be. what reason (s) is given to support this stateme

Bas_tet [7]

The reason why there is no energy shortage nor will there ever be is because energy is being preserved and conserved and only changes form. It never gets lost or increased.

A block (mass = 61.2 kg) is hanging from a massless cord that is wrapped around a pulley (moment of inertia = 1/2MR2 kg · m2, wh

kolezko [41]

Answer:

The angular velocity is $w = 53.35 \ rounds /minute$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the block is $m = 61.2kg$

The of the pulley is $M = 14.2 kg$

The radius of the pulley is $R = 1.5m$

The radius of the cord around the pulley is $r = 1.5 m$

The distance of the block to the floor is $d = 8.0 m$

From the question we are told that the moment of inertia of the pulley is

$I = \frac{1}{2} MR^2 kg \cdot m^2$

Substituting value

$I = \frac{1}{2} * 14.2 * (1.5)^2$

$I = 15.975 kg \cdot m^2$

Using the Newtons law we can express the force acting on the vertical axis as

$ma = mg -T$

=> $T = mg -ma$

Now when the pulley is rotated that torque generated on the massless cord as a r result of the tension T and the radius of the cord around the pulley is mathematically represented as

$\tau = I \alpha$

Here $\alpha$ is the angular acceleration

Here $\tau$ is the torque which can be equivalent to

$\tau = T r$

Substituting this above

$Tr = I \alpha$

Substituting for T

$(mg - ma ) r = I\ r \alpha$

Here $a$ is the linear acceleration which is mathematically represented as

$a = r\alpha$

$(mg - m(r\alpha ) ) r = I\ r \alpha$

$mgr = I\alpha + m(r\alpha ) r$

$mgr = \alpha [ I + mr^2]$

making $\alpha$ the subject

$\alpha = \frac{mgr}{I -mr ^2}$

Substituting values

$\alpha = \frac{61.2 * 1.5 * 9.8}{15.975 + (61.2 ) * (1.5)^2}$

$\alpha =5.854 rad /s^2$

Now substituting into the equation above to obtain the acceleration

$a = 5.854 * 1.5$

$a=8.78 m/s^2$

This acceleration is $a = \frac{v}{t}$

and v is the linear velocity with is mathematically represented as

$v = \frac{d}{t}$

Substituting this into the formula acceleration

$a = \frac{d}{t^2}$

making t the subject

$t = \sqrt{\frac{d}{a} }$

substituting value

$t = \sqrt{\frac{8}{8.78}}$

$t = 0.9545 \ s$

Now the linear velocity is

$v = \frac{8}{0.9545}$

$v = 8.38 m/s$

The angular velocity is

$w = \frac{v}{r}$

So

$w = \frac{8.38}{1.5}$

$w = 5.59 rad/s$

Generally 1 radian is equal to 0.159155 rounds or turns

So 5.59 radian is equal to x

Now x is mathematically obtained as

$x = \frac{5.59 * 0.159155}{1}$

$= 0.8892 \ rounds$

Also

60 second = 1 minute

So 1 second = z

Now z is mathematically obtained as

$z = \frac{ 1}{60}$

z $= 0.01667 \ minute$

Therefore

$w = \frac{0.8892}{0.01667}$

$w = 53.35 \ rounds /minute$
