pickupchik [31]

Answer:

The acceleration due to gravity at Pluto is 0.0597 m/s^2.

Explanation:

Length, L = 1 m

10 oscillations in 257 seconds

Time period, T = 257/10 = 25.7 s

Let the acceleration due to gravity is g.

Use the formula of time period of simple pendulum

$T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}\\\\25.7 = 2 \times 31.4\sqrt{\frac{1}{g}}\\\\g = 0.0597 m/s^2$

Answer: I = 111.69 pA

Explanation: The hall effect is all about the fact that when a semiconductor is placed perpendicularly to a magnetic field, a voltage is generated which could be measured at right angle to the current path. This voltage is known as the hall voltage.

The hall voltage of a semiconductor sensor is given below as

V = I×B/qnd

Where V = hall voltage = 1.5mV =1.5/1000=0.0015V

I = current =?,

n= concentration of charge (electron density) = 5.8×10^20cm^-3 = 5.8×10^20/(100)³ = 5.8×10^14 m^-3

q = magnitude of an electronic charge=1.609×10^-19c

B = strength of magnetic field = 5T

d = thickness of sensor = 0.8mm = 0.0008m

By slotting in the parameters, we have that

0.0015 = I × 5/5.8×10^14 × 1.609×10^-19×0.0008

0.0015 = I×5/7.446×10^-8

I = (0.0015 × 7.446×10^-8)/5

I = 111.69*10^(-12)

I = 111.69 pA

If two objects A and B have the same kinetic energy but A has three times the momentum of B, what is the ratio of their inertias

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

$\frac{inertia_B}{inertia_A}=9$

Explanation:

First of all, let's remind that:

- The kinetic energy of an object is given by $K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$ , where m is the mass and v is the speed

- The momentum of an object is given by $p=mv$

- The inertia of an object is proportional to its mass, so we can write $I=km$ , where k just indicates a constant of proportionality

In this problem, we have:

- $K_A = K_B$ (the two objects have same kinetic energy)

- $p_A = 3 p_B$ (A has three times the momentum of B)

Re-writing both equation we have:

$\frac{1}{2}m_A v_A^2 = \frac{1}{2}m_B v_B^2\\m_A v_A = 3 m_B v_B$

If we divide first equation by second one we get

$v_A = 3 v_B$

And if we substitute it into the first equation we get

$m_A (3 v_B)^2 = m_B v_B^2\\9 m_A v_B^2 = m_B v_B^2\\m_B = 9 m_A$

So, B has 9 times more mass than A, and so B has 9 times more inertia than A, and their ratio is:

$\frac{I_B}{I_A}=\frac{km_B}{km_A}=\frac{9m_A}{m_A}=9$

Which of the following is an example of acceleration?

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

When a satellite is orbiting the earth , a constant force is being applied on it which means it must has acceleration. Also the direction of satellite is always being changed when it is orbitting to there is always change in the velocity vector which means acceleration.

You can view in the attached diagram to understand how the velocity is being changed.
