Answer:

Explanation:

In a frictionless system with no acceleration, the tension in the rope must be F along its entire length

FBD analysis of the lower pulley has two upward acting tension vectors F and one downward acting weight vector W

2F = W

F = W/2

FBD analysis of the upper pulley has one upward acting support vector T and three downward acting tension vectors F

T = 3F

T = 3(W/2)

T = 1.5W

A particle with mass 1.81×10−3 kg and a charge of 1.22×10−8 C has, at a given instant, a velocity v⃗ =(3.00×104m/s)j^. What are

slava [35]

Answer:

The magnitude and direction of the acceleration of the particle is $a= 0.3296\ \hat{k}\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass $m = 1.81\times10^{-3}\ kg$

Velocity $v = (3.00\times10^{4}\ m/s)j$

Charge $q = 1.22\times10^{-8}\ C$

Magnetic field $B= (1.63\hat{i}+0.980\hat{j})\ T$

We need to calculate the acceleration of the particle

Formula of the acceleration is defined as

$F = ma=q(v\times B)$

$a =\dfrac{q(v\times B)}{m}$

We need to calculate the value of $v\times B$

$v\times B=(3.00\times10^{4}\ m/s)j\times(1.63\hat{i}+0.980\hat{j})$

$v\times B=4.89\times10^{4}$

Now, put the all values into the acceleration 's formula

$a =\dfrac{1.22\times10^{-8}\times(-4.89\times10^{4}\hat{k})}{1.81\times10^{-3}}$

$a= -0.3296\ \hat{k}\ m/s^2$

Negative sign shows the opposite direction.

Hence, The magnitude and direction of the acceleration of the particle is $a= 0.3296\ \hat{k}\ m/s^2$

The boiling point of water at sea level is 100 °c. at higher altitudes, the boiling point of water will be

Scilla [17]

The boiling point of water at sea level is 100 °C. At higher altitudes, the boiling point of water will be.....
a) higher, because the altitude is greater.
b) lower, because temperatures are lower.
c) the same, because water always boils at 100 °C.
d) higher, because there are fewer water molecules in the air.
==> e) lower, because the atmospheric pressure is lower.
--------------------------
Water boils at a lower temperature on top of a mountain because there is less air pressure on the molecules.
-------------------
I hope this is helpful.
