If you want to delay a pulse of light in a laser experiment, you can send the light through a long coil of fiber optic cable. Li

ght travels somewhat slower in the glass core of a fiber than it does in vacuum. We will approximate the speed of light in the fiber as 2.04 x 108 m/s. What length of fiber (in meters) should you use if you want to delay the arrival of light by 557 ns

Answer:

d = 113.6 m

Explanation:

For this exercise, the first thing we must notice is that the speed of the laser beam in the fiber is constant, so we can use the uniform motion relationships to find the necessary distance

          v = d / t

let's reduce to SI units

         t = 557 ns = 557 10⁻⁹ s

         d = v t

         d = 2.04 10⁸ 557 10⁻⁹

         d = 1.136 102 m

         d = 113.6 m

This is the distance of the fiber for the laser to arrive with the desired delay

A river flows at 2m/s. The velocity of a ferry relative to the shore is 4m /s at right angle to the current. What is the velocit
monitta

The velocity of the ferry relative to the current is 4.5 m/s.

<h3>Relative velocity</h3>
  • Relative velocity is the velocity of a body as observed from the reference point of another body either stationary or in motion.

Since the river is flowing parallel to the shore and the ferry is moving perpendicular to the shore, their velocities are at right angles to each other.

The two velocities form a right angled-triangle of sides 2, 4 and a hypotenuse which gives the relative velocity of the ferry to the current.

Using Pythagoras rule:

  • c² = a² + b²
  • Let c be the hypotenuse
  • a =  velocity of the ferry, and
  • b = the velocity of the current, and

c² = 4² + 2²

c² = 16 + 4

c = 20

c = √20

c = 4.47 m/s

c ≈ 4.5 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the ferry relative to the current is 4.5 m/s.

Gibbons, small Asian apes, move by brachiation, swinging below a handhold to move forward to the next handhold. A 9.0 kg gibbon
LiRa [457]

Answer:

241.8 N.

Explanation:

The force on branch provides a reaction to the ape's weight force plus the centripetal force needed to keep the gibbon in a circular motion of radius 0.60 m.

Centripetal force = mv^2/r

F = mg + mv²/r

F = m(g + v²/r)

where,

m = mass

= 9 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity

= 9.8 m/s²

v = 3.2 m/s

r = 0.60 m

F = 9 * (9.8 + 3.2²/0.60)

= 241.8 N.
