Answer:

the weight of astronauts on earth is greater than his weight on d moon

Explanation:

due to the greater gravitational pull in earth the weight seems to me more

but for the moon where there is less gravity

its weight will be less causing slight flotation

the maximum displacement of an oscillatory motion is A=0.49m. determine the position x at which the kinetic energy of the partic
kipiarov [429]

Answer:0.4 m

Explanation:

Given

Maximum displacement A=0.49

The sum of kinetic and elastic potential energy is \frac{1}{2}kA^2

where k=spring constant

U+K.E.=\frac{1}{2}kA^2

when K.E.=U/2

K.E.=kinetic energy

U=Elastic potential Energy

\rightarrow \ U+\frac{U}{2}=\frac{1}{2}KA^2\\\rightarrow \ \frac{3U}{2}=\frac{1}{2}KA^2\\\rightarrow \ U=\frac{1}{3}KA^2\\\rightarrow \ \frac{Kx^2}{2}=\frac{1}{3}KA^2\\\\x=\sqrt{\frac{2}{3}}A\\x=0.4\ m

How much force must be applied on a blade of length 4cm and thickness of 0.1mm to exert a pressure of 4000000pa?
Viktor [21]

Answer:

F= 403429 kpa

Explanation:

Pressure is the product of force and area

Mathematically,

P=F*A -------where F is force and A is area.

A= 40 *0.1 = 4mm² -----convert to m²

A= 4e⁻⁶ m²

P= 4000000 pa

F= P/A = 4000000/4e⁻⁶

F= 403428793.493 pa

F= 403429 kpa

How much conventional current must you run in a solenoid with radius = 0.05 m and length = 0.39 m to produce a magnetic field in
Ugo [173]

Answer:

Explanation:

radius of the solenoid, r = 0.05 m

length of the solenoid, l = 0.39 m

Magnetic field of the solenoid, B = 2 x 10^-5 T

Number of turns, N = 200

The magnetic field of the solenoid is given by

B=\mu _{0}ni

where, i be the current and n be the number of turns per unit length

n = N / l = 200 / 0.39 = 512.8

2\times 10^{-5}=4 \times 3.14\times 10^{-7}\times 512.8\times i

i = 0.031 A

A lawyer drives from her​ home, located 1 mile east and 8 miles north of the town​ courthouse, to her​ office, located 4 miles w
givi [52]

Answer:

d = 13 miles

Explanation:

Lets say the position of court house is origin in this case

her office is located at 4 miles west and 4 miles south of court house

so here we have coordinate of the office with respect to court house is given as

r_1 = (-4\hat i - 4\hat j)

now the position of her home is located at 1 miles east and 8 miles north of the court house

so the coordinates of her home is given as

r_2 = (1\hat i + 8 \hat j)

now the change in the position is given as the distance between office and home

d = r_2 - r_1

d = 5 \hat i + 12 \hat j

d = \sqrt{5^2 + 12^2} = 13 miles
