Answer:

Explanation:

F=ma

F in this case is the gravity acting on the 2kg object. Acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s^2. SF=ma, so

F = 2kg*(9.8 m/s^2) = 19.6 N

Now use this force to determine the mass of the object on the table:

F=ma

19.6 N (1N=kg*m/s^2) = m*(1.8 m/s^2)

m = 10.89 kg

A passenger compartment of a rotating amusement park ride contains a bench on which a book of mass
Basile [38]

a) 120 s

b) v = 0.052R [m/s]

Explanation:

a)

The period of a revolution in a simple harmonic motion is the time taken for the object in motion to complete one cycle (in this case, the time taken to complete one revolution).

The graph of the problem is missing, find it in attachment.

To find the period of revolution of the book, we have to find the time between two consecutive points of the graph that have exactly the same shape, which correspond to two points in which the book is located at the same position.

The first point we take is t = 0, when the position of the book is x = 0.

Then, the next point with same shape is at t = 120 s, where the book returns at x = 0 m.

Therefore, the period is

T = 120 s - 0 s = 120 s

b)

The tangential speed of the book is given by the ratio between the distance covered during one revolution, which is the perimeter of the wheel, and the time taken, which is the period.

The perimeter of the wheel is:

L=2\pi R

where R is the radius of the wheel.

The period of revolution is:

T=120 s

Therefore, the tangential speed of the book is:

v=\frac{L}{T}=\frac{2\pi R}{120}=0.052R

A) A mass spectrometer has a velocity selector that allows ions traveling at only one speed to pass with no deflection through s
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

(A). The speed of the ions is 1.2\times10^{6}\ m/s

(B). The radius of curvature of a singly charged lithium ion is 2.0\times10^{6}\ m

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric field = 60000 N/C

Magnetic field = 0.0500 T

(A). We need to calculate the velocity

For no deflection

F_{E}=F_{B}

Eq=Bqv

v = \dfrac{E}{B}

v=\dfrac{60000}{0.0500}

v=1.2\times10^{6}\ m/s

(B). We need to calculate the radius

Using magnetic force balance by centripetal force

Bqv=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

r=\dfrac{mv^2}{Bqv}

Put the value into the formula

r=\dfrac{1.16\times10^{-26}\times(1.2\times10^{6})^2}{0.0500\times1.6\times10^{-19}}

r=2.0\times10^{6}\ m

Hence, (A). The speed of the ions is 1.2\times10^{6}\ m/s

(B). The radius of curvature of a singly charged lithium ion is 2.0\times10^{6}\ m

Which example best illustrates kinetic energy?
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

A.

Explanation:

In all actuality. The car may not be fully moving but since it's on a hill and the earth moves it makes the most sense. Also since the car is at a slope by the law of motion what goes up must come down so the car is in fact moving.
