Actually Welcome to the Concept of the Force and Power.

Since, according to the Newton's law,

Force = mass * Acceleration.

hence, here

Force = 142 N, accelration = 22.75 m/s2

hence, mass = 142/22.75

===> Mass = 6.24 Kg

hence the mass of the shot is 6.24 Kg

It has to be D because the arrow will drop as it moves, if it were a gun, you'd lead the target so fire below it, but due to it being an arrow, you aim high not low. Also, they didnt specify how fast anything is, so you'd probably miss if you actually did it.

2. Two long parallel wires each carry a current of 5.0 A directed to the east. The two wires are separated by 8.0 cm. What is th

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

The magnitude of magnetic field at given point = $5.33$ × $10^{-5}$ T

Explanation:

Given :

Current passing through both wires = 5.0 A

Separation between both wires = 8.0 cm

We have to find magnetic field at a point which is 5 cm from any of wires.

From biot savert law,

We know the magnetic field due to long parallel wires.

⇒ $B = \frac{\mu_{0}i }{2\pi R}$

Where $B =$ magnetic field due to long wires, $\mu_{0} =$ $4\pi \times10^{-7}$ , $R =$ perpendicular distance from wire to given point

From any one wire $R_{1} =$ 5 cm, $R_{2} =$ 3 cm

so we write,

∴ $B = B_{1} + B_{2}$

$B = \frac{\mu_{0} i}{2\pi R_{1} } + \frac{\mu_{0} i}{2\pi R_{2} }$

$B =\frac{ 4\pi \times10^{-7} \times5}{2\pi } [\frac{1}{0.03} + \frac{1}{0.05} ]$

$B = 5.33\times10^{-5} T$

Therefore, the magnitude of magnetic field at given point = $5.33\times10^{-5} T$

Two identical copper blocks are connected by a weightless, unstretchable cord through a frictionless pulley at the top of a thin

likoan [24]

Answer:

13.6 N

Explanation:

Since one side of the wedge is vertical and the wedge makes and angle of 33 with the horizontal, the angle between the weight of the copper block on the incline and the incline is thus 90 - 33 = 57.

Let M be the mass of the block that hangs, m be the mass of the block on the incline and T be the tension in the weightless unstretchable cord.

We assume the motion is downwards in the direction of the hanging block, M.

We now write equations of motion for each block.

Mg - T = Ma (1) and T - mgcos57 - F = ma where F is the frictional force on the block on the incline and a is their acceleration.

Now, since both blocks do not move, a = 0.

So, Mg - T = M(0) = 0 and T - mgcos57 - F = m(0) = 0

Mg - T = 0 (3) and T - mgcos57 - F = 0 (4)

From (3), T = Mg

Substituting T into (4), we have

T - mgcos57 - F = 0

Mg - mgcos57 - F = 0

So, Mg - mgcos57 = F

F = Mg - mgcos57

F = (M - mcos57)g

Since g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s², and M = 2.94 kg and m = 2.85 kg.

We find F, thus

F = (2.94 kg - 2.85 kgcos57)9.8 m/s²

F = (2.94 kg - 2.85 kg × 0.5446)9.8 m/s²

F = (2.94 kg - 1.552 kg)9.8 m/s²

F = (1.388 kg)9.8 m/s²

F = 13.6024 kgm/s²

F ≅ 13.6 N
