A 0.100 kg limestone cube is released from rest, and proceeds to slide down a frictionless ramp. At the bottom of the ramp, the

limestone cube makes an elastic collision with a steel cube whose mass is 0.200 kg, which is initially at rest. At what vertical height should the limestone cube be placed such that the steel cube has a velocity of 1.50 m/s after the collision

Answer:

the height at which the limestone cube must be placed is 0.23 m.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of limestone cube, m₁ = 0.1 kg

initial velocity of the limestone cube, u₁ = 0

mass of steel cube, m₂ = 0.2 kg

initial velocity of the steel cube, u₂ = 0

final velocity of the steel cube, v₂ = 1.5 m/s

Apply the principle of conservation of energy to determine the height of the limestone cube.

Potential energy of the limestone cube at top = Kinetic energy of steel cube at base

m₁gh = ¹/₂m₂v₂²

where;

h is the height at which the limestone cube is placed

h = \frac{m_2v_2^2}{2m_1g} \\\\h = \frac{0.2\times 1.5 ^2}{2 \times 0.1 \times 9.8} \\\\h =0.23 \ m

Therefore, the height at which the limestone cube must be placed is 0.23 m.

What is the magnitude of electrical force of attraction between an copper nucleus (29 protons) and its innermost electron if the
Agata [3.3K]
The charge of the copper nucleus is 29 times the charge of one proton:
Q=29 q= 29 \cdot 1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C=4.64 \cdot 10^{-18}C
the charge of the electron is
e=-1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C
and their separation is
r=1.0 \cdot 10^{-12} m

The magnitude of the electrostatic force between them is given by:
F=k_e  \frac{Qe}{r^2}
where k_e is the Coulomb's constant. If we substitute the numbers, we find (we can ignore the negative sign of the electron charge, since we are interested only in the magnitude of the force)
F=(8.99 \cdot 10^9 Nm^2C^{-2}) \frac{(4.64 \cdot 10^{-18}C)(1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C)}{(1.0 \cdot 10^{-12} m)^2}=6.68 \cdot 10^{-3} N

olga55 [171]

Answer:

A). A few of the positive particles aimed at a gold foil seemed to bounce back off of the thin metallic foil.

Explanation:

Scientists decided to change the model of the atom when they discovered new evidence that showed 'few of the positive particles aimed at a gold foil seemed to bounce back off of the thin metallic foil.' On this ground, <u>Rutherford concluded that atom is mostly made up of empty space and thus, he proposed a nucleus model of atom in which the atom comprises of the tiny and positively charged nucleus is surrounded by electrons with a negative charge</u>. Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.

A steel piano wire, of length 1.150 m and mass 4.80 g is stretched under a tension of 580.0 N.

A steel piano wire, of length 1.150 m and mass of 4.80 g is stretched under a tension of 580.0 N.the speed of transverse waves on the wire would be  372.77 m/s

<h3>What is a sound wave?</h3>

It is a particular variety of mechanical waves made up of the disruption brought on by the movements of the energy. In an elastic medium like the air, a sound wave travels through compression and rarefaction.

For calculating the wave velocity of the sound waves generated from the piano can be calculated by the formula

V= √F/μ

where v is the wave velocity of the wave travel on the string

F is the tension in the string of piano

μ is the mass per unit length of the string

As given in question a steel piano wire, of length 1.150 m and mass of 4.80 g is stretched under a tension of 580.0 N.

The μ is the mass per unit length of the string would be

μ = 4.80/(1.150×1000)

μ = 0.0041739 kg/m

By substituting the respective values of the tension on the string and the density(mass per unit length) in the above formula of the wave velocity

V= √F/μ

V=√(580/0.0041739)

V =  372.77 m/s

Thus,  the speed of transverse waves on the wire comes out to be  372.77 m/s
