The drag force on a falling coffee filter can be modeled as a linear function with respect to velocity, F⃗ D =−bv, where b is a

positive constant related to the surface area and shape of the coffee filter. The teacher demonstrates how the value of constant b can be determined by releasing coffee filters from rest and having them fall toward a motion detector, as shown. The students repeat the activity and use the motion detector to measure the position, velocity, and acceleration of different coffee filters as they fall. Which of the following would provide the data needed to determine the value of b ?

Newton's second law and graphical analysis allow us to find the correct answer for the measure of the constant b is:

    D) Stack several filters to change the mass measure the acceleration of the system.

Newton's second law establishes a relationship between the net force, the mass and the acceleration of the bodies.  

         ∑ F = m a

Where the bold letters indicate vectors, F is the force, m the mass and the acceleration of the body.

They indicate that the drag force on the filters is

         F = - b v

Where b is a positive constant that depends on the shape and area of ​​the filter and v is the speed of the filter.

Let's write Newton's second law.

         W - fr  = ma

         W -bv  = ma

         

In the experiment the students indicate that they can measure the position, velocity and acceleration of the body.

Based on the above, if we place several filter weights and measure their speed and acceleration in each case, we can make a graph of velocity versus acceleration, we can take the value of the constant b from the slope.

Let's analyze the different answers:

A) False. The constant b depends on the shape of the filter therefore it must be kept constant.

B) False. The constant depends on the area, so it must be kept constant.

C) May be. In this case, since we have the terminal velocity, the acceleration is zero, Newton's second law remains.

                    B v - W = 0

                    b = \frac{W}{v}  

The problem with the method is the difficulty of measuring the compression terminal velocity.

D) True. According to the discussion of the velocity versus acceleration. graph, the constant b is equal to the slope of the graph.

E) May be. The problem with this method is finding a reliable value for the terminal velocity.

In conclusion, using Newton's second law and graphical analysis we can find the correct answer for the measure of the constant b is:

 D) Stack several filters to change the mass measure the acceleration of the system.

Several springs are connected as illustrated below in (a). Knowing the individual springs stiffness k1 = 20 N/m, k2 = 30 N/m, k3
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

The equivalent stiffness of the string is 8.93 N/m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Spring stiffness is

k_{1}=20\ N/m

k_{2}=30\ N/m

k_{3}=15\ N/m

k_{4}=20\ N/m

k_{5}=35\ N/m

According to figure,

k_{2} and k_{3} is in series

We need to calculate the equivalent

Using formula for series

\dfrac{1}{k}=\dfrac{1}{k_{2}}+\dfrac{1}{k_{3}}

k=\dfrac{k_{2}k_{3}}{k_{2}+k_{3}}

Put the value into the formula

k=\dfrac{30\times15}{30+15}

k=10\ N/m

k and k_{4} is in parallel

We need to calculate the k'

Using formula for parallel

k'=k+k_{4}

Put the value into the formula

k'=10+20

k'=30\ N/m

k_{1},k' and k_{5} is in series

We need to calculate the equivalent stiffness of the spring

Using formula for series

k_{eq}=\dfrac{1}{k_{1}}+\dfrac{1}{k'}+\dfrac{1}{k_{5}}

Put the value into the formula

k_{eq}=\dfrac{1}{20}+\dfrac{1}{30}+\dfrac{1}{35}

k_{eq}=8.93\ N/m

Hence, The equivalent stiffness of the string is 8.93 N/m.

In Lesson 20, a magnesium strip was used to ignite the thermite reaction. When magnesium is placed in a flame from a small blow
nadezda [96]

Answer:

2 electrons will be needed by unbound oxygen in order to fill its 2nd shell.

Explanation:

The chemical reaction between magnesium and oxygen gives magnesium oxide as a product.The reaction is chemically represented as:

2Mg(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2MgO(s)

Magnesium is a metal of group-2 with 2 valence electrons.It has atomic number of 12.

[Mg]=1s^22s^22p^63s^2

In order to attain noble gas configuration it will loose two electrons.

[Mg]^{2+}=1s^22s^22p^6

Mg\rightarrow Mg^{2+}+2e^-...[1]

Oxygen is a non metal of group-16 with 6 valence electrons..It has atomic number of 8.

[O]=1s^22s^22p^4

In order to attain noble gas configuration it will gain two electrons.

[O]^{2-}=1s^22s^22p^6

O+2e^-\rightarrow O^{2-}..[2]

2 electrons will be needed by unbound oxygen in order to fill its 2nd shell.

A ball is dropped from a building of height h. Assume the ball starts from rest and that air friction can be ignored. Derive an
agasfer [191]

Answer:

t=\sqrt{h/g}

Explanation:

We use the kinematics equation to solve this question:

y(t)=y_{o}+v_{o}t+1/2*a*t^{2}

v_{o}=0    because the ball is dropped

a=-g         the acceleration is the gravity, negative because it points downwards

y_{o}=h     initial height

y(t)=h/2     final height

So:

h/2=h-1/2*g*t^{2}

t=\sqrt{h/g}
