The time taken for him to move the bin 6.5 m is 2.30 s.

The given parameters;

weight of the load, w = 557 N
force applied , F = 410 N
angle of force, = 15°
coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.46
distance moved, d = 6.5 m

The net horizontal force on the recycling bin is calculated as follows;

$Fcos\theta - F_k = ma$

where;

m is the mass of the recycling bin
$F_k$ is the frictional force

W = mg

$557 = 9.8m\\\\m = \frac{557}{9.8} \\\\m = 56.84 \ kg$

The net horizontal force on the recycling bin is calculated as;

$Fcos \theta - F_k = ma\\\\Fcos\theta - \mu_kF_n = ma\\\\410\times cos(15) \ - \ 0.46(557) = 56.84 a\\\\139.8 = 56.84a\\\\a = \frac{139.8}{56.84} \\\\a = 2.46 \ m/s^2$

The time taken for him to move the bin 6.5 m is calculated as follows;

$s = v_0t + \frac{1}{2} at^2\\\\6.5 = 0 + \frac{1}{2} \times 2.46\times t^2\\\\6.5 = 1.23 t^2\\\\t^2 = \frac{6.5 }{1.23} \\\\t^2 = 5.285\\\\t = \sqrt{5.285} \\\\t = 2.30 \ s$

Thus, the time taken for him to move the bin 6.5 m is 2.30 s.

if you are in Birmingham AL, and you want to use your cell phone to talk to your cousin in Houston, TX, what must occur in order

lesantik [10]

Answer:

For communication to be communicated between you and your cousin who is in Houston,Texas, when a call is made by you, a request is made to the specific phone, and the telephone tower will get the request from the mobile phone. Then a signal is sent via a transmitter underground, by this the satellite communicates with the local receiver in Houston, that is linked to the local tower over there, the tower would request for your cousin's number and connects the two of you, once a link is set.

Explanation:

From the example stated, what is required for such for a far distance, is a communication satellite link.

When a call is made by you, the a connection request is sent to the specified phone.The telephone tower receives the request from The mobile phone. The local tower(Birmingham,Al) is linked to a ground transmitter by the means of a Fiber optical cable.

A signal is sent to satellite via the ground transmitter.The satellite then set's off the local receiver in (Houston,Texas) which on it's end is connected to the local tower there. This tower then ask for your cousin's mobile for a call that will be incoming, a link is set, once he/she receives the call, from there a conversation can be done.

Explanation:

Question 6:

The density of gold is 19.3 g/cm³

The density of silver is 10.5 g/cm³

The density of the substance in Crown A;

Density = mass ÷ volume = $\frac{1930}{100}$ = 19.3 g/cm³

Since the density of gold, given, is 19.3 g/cm³ and the density of the substance in Crown A has a density of 19.3 g/cm³ , then that substance must be gold.

The density of the substance in Crown B;

Density = mass ÷ volume = 1930 ÷ 184 = 10.48913043 g/cm³ ≈ 10.5 g/cm³ (answer rounded up to one decimal place)

Since the density of the substance in Crown B is approximately equal to 10.5 g/cm³ , then that substance is Silver.

The density of substance in Crown C;

Density = mass ÷ volume = 1930g ÷ 150cm³ = 12.86666667 ≈ 12.9 cm³ (answer rounded up to one decimal place)

<h3>The density of the mixture:</h3><h3 />

For 2 cm³ of the mixture, its mass equal 19.3 g + 10.5 g = 29.8 g

∴ for 1 cm³ of the mixture, its mass equal to $\frac{29.8}{2}$ = 14.9 g

Hence the density of the mixture = 14.9 g/cm³ and is not equal to the density of the substance in Crown C.

* Crown C is not made up of a mixture of gold and silver.

Question 7:

An empty masuring cylinder has a mass of 500 g.

Water is poured into measuring cylinder until the liquid level is at the 100 cm³ mark.

The total mass is now 850 g

The mass of water that occupied the 100 cm³ space of the container = total mass - mass of the empty container = 850 g - 500 g = 350 g

Density of the liquid (water) poured into the container = mass ÷ volume = 350 g ÷ 100 cm³ = 3.5g/cm³

Question 8:

A tank filled with water has a volume of 0.02 m³

(a) 1 liter = 0.001 m³

How many liters? = 0.02 m³ ?

Cross multiplying gives:

$\frac{0.02 * 1}{0.001}$ = 20 liters

(b) 1 m³ = 1,000,000 cm³

0.02 m³ = how many cm³ ?

Cross-multiplying gives;

$\frac{0.02 * 1,000,000}{1}$ = 20,000 cm³

∴ 0.02 m³ of the water = 20,000 cm³ = 20,000 ml

Question 9:

Caliper (a) measurement = 3.2 cm

Caliper (b) measurement = 3 cm

Question 10:

A stone is gently and completely immersed in a liquid of density 1.0 g/cm³
in a displacement can
The mass of liquid which overflow is 20 g

The mass of the liquid which overflow = mass of the stone = 20 g

1 gram of the liquid occupies 1 cm³ of space.

20 g of the liquid will occupy; $\frac{20 * 1}{1}$ = 20 cm³

(a) Since the volume of the water displaced is equal to the volume of the stone.

∴ The volume of the stone = 20 cm³

(b) Mass = density × volume

Density of the stone = 5.0 g/cm³

Volume of the stone = 20 cm³

Mass of the stone = 5 g/cm³ × 20 cm³ = 100 g

gAn optical engineer needs to ensure that the bright fringes from a double-slit are 15.7 mm apart on a detector that is from the

igomit [66]

Answer:

d = 68.5 x 10⁻⁶ m = 68.5 μm

Explanation:

The complete question is as follows:

An optical engineer needs to ensure that the bright fringes from a double-slit are 15.7 mm apart on a detector that is 1.70m from the slits. If the slits are illuminated with coherent light of wavelength 633 nm, how far apart should the slits be?

The answer can be given by using the formula derived from Young's Double Slit Experiment:

$y = \frac{\lambda L}{d}\\\\d =\frac{\lambda L}{y}\\\\$

where,

d = slit separation = ?

λ = wavelength = 633 nm = 6.33 x 10⁻⁷ m

L = distance from screen (detector) = 1.7 m

y = distance between bright fringes = 15.7 mm = 0.0157 m

Therefore,

$d = \frac{(6.33\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m)(1.7\ m)}{0.0157\ m}\\\\$

d = 68.5 x 10⁻⁶ m = 68.5 μm

HURRY Which change is an example of transforming potential energy to kinetic energy

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

C. changing nuclear energy to radiant energy

Explanation:

Nuclear energy takes atoms in their potential state, split them (fission) or fuse them (fusion) creating chain reactions of radiant energy. Most nuclear electrical power plants use fission, radiant energy heats water making steam to spin turbines.

Or think of the atom bomb. Definitely potential energy until the fuse starts detonation and chain reactions. The radiant kinetic energy and shock waves were horrendous.
