Answer:

972 J

Explanation:

At the bottom, all the gravitational potential energy was converted into kinetic energy. If you calculate the GPE, its value will be the same that the KE at the bottom. The GPE can be calculated this way:

GPE = mass×gravity×heigth

GPE = 2.2×9.8×45.08 ≈ 972

An electron (q=-1.602×10-19C) is placed .03m away from spherical object with a net charge of -7.2 C.

vovangra [49]

Answer:

Explanation:

electric field at the location of electron

= 9 x 10⁹ x 7.2 / .03²

= 72 x 10¹² N/C

force on electron = electric field x charge on electron

= 72 x 10¹² x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹

= 115.2 x 10⁻⁷ N .

C )

work done = charge on electron x potential difference at two points

potential at .03 m

= 9 x 10⁹ x 7.2 / .03

= 2.16 x 10¹² V

potential at .001 m

= 9 x 10⁹ x 7.2 / .001

= 64.8 x 10¹² V

potential difference = (64.8 - 2.16 )x 10¹² V

= 62.64 x 10¹² V .

work done = 62.64 x 10¹² x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹

= 100.224 x 10⁻⁷ J .

D )

There will be no change in the magnitude of force on positron except that the direction of force will be reversed . In case of electron , there will be repulsion and in case of positron , there will be attraction .

Work done in case of electron will be positive and work done in case of positron will be negative .

electric field due to charge will be same in both the cases .

The two masses in the Atwood's machine shown in the figure are initially at rest at the same height. After they are released, th

Inga [223]

According to the description given in the photo, the attached figure represents the problem graphically for the Atwood machine.

To solve this problem we must apply the concept related to the conservation of energy theorem.

PART A ) For energy conservation the initial kinetic and potential energy will be the same as the final kinetic and potential energy, so

$E_i = E_f$

$0 = \frac{1}{2} (m_1+m_2)v_f^2-m_2gh+m_1gh$

$v_f = \sqrt{2gh(\frac{m_2-m_1}{m_1+m_2})}$

PART B) Replacing the values given as,

$h= 1.7m\\m_1 = 3.5kg\\m_2 = 4.3kg \\g = 9.8m/s^2 \\$

$v_f = \sqrt{2gh(\frac{m_2-m_1}{m_1+m_2})}$

$v_f = \sqrt{2(9.8)(1.7)(\frac{4.3-3.5}{3.5+4.3})}$

$v_f = 1.8486m/s$

Therefore the speed of the masses would be 1.8486m/s

Musya8 [376]

Answer:

(a) Most reactive ${}$ Metal B

${}$ Metal D

${}$ Metal A

Least reactive ${}$ Metal C

(b) (i) Bubbles should form very slowly

(ii) No reaction takes place

Explanation:

(a) The given metals arranged in their order of reactivity are;

Most reactive ${}$ Metal B

${}$ Metal D

${}$ Metal A

Least reactive ${}$ Metal C

The other of reactivity is based on the nature of their reactivity of the metals in air

(b) (i) Based on the reactivity of the metals in air, whereby metal A reacts very slowly and an oxide is formed, we have that, based on the reactivity of the metal A, when mixed with dilute hydrochloric acid, bubbles should form very slowly

(ii) Similarly, given that metal C is unreactive, we have that when small pieces of metal C are added to dilute hydrochloric acid, no reaction takes place.

Solve for the BMI weight 58kg Height 1.61

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

BMI= weight/(height × height) ; weight in kilogram and height in metter

= 58kg / (1.61m × 1.61m )

= (58/ 2.5921) kg/ $m^{2}$

= 22.375 kg/ $m^{2}$

≈ 22.4 kg/ $m^{2}$

A truck loaded with sand accelerates along a highway. The driving force on the truck remains constant. What happens to the accel

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

Acceleration will increase.

Explanation:

The relation between force, mass and acceleration according to the Newton's second law of motion is given as:

F = ma

We are given that the driving force on the truck remains constant, so F is constant here. We can rewrite the above equation as:

$a=\frac{F}{m}$

Since, F is constant, the acceleration of the truck is inversely proportional to the mass.

There is a hole at the bottom of the truck through which the sand is being lost at a constant rate. Since, the sand is being lost, the overall mass of the truck is being reduced.

Since, the acceleration of the truck is inversely proportional to the mass, the reduced mass will result in an increased acceleration.

So, the acceleration of the truck will increase.
