100000 Pascal

Explanation:

pressure= force/area

Max pressure= force/min area

so f=5

min area= 5×10^-5

5÷5*10^-5 = 100000pascal

a baseball player is dashing toward home plate with a speed of 200 feet per hour. When he decides to hit the dirt. he slides for

Serggg [28]

To solve this problem we will use the kinematic formula for the final velocity.

$V_f_x = V_0_x + a_xt$

The final speed is 0 at the moment the player stops.

The time until it stops is 1.3 s

The initial speed is 200 feet / s Note (check the speed units in the problem statement, 200ft / s is very much and 200ft / h is very small)

Then, we clear the formula.

$a_x = \frac{(Vfx-V0x)}{t}\\ a_x = \frac{(0-200)}{1.3}\\ a_x = -153.5 ft / s ^ 2$

Because the player is slowing down, the acceleration goes in the opposite direction to the player's movement, and that is why it is negative.

To answer part b) we use the following formula.

$Vf ^ 2 = Vo ^ 2 + 2a * (x_2 - x_1)\\\\ (x_2 - x_1)= \frac{(V_f ^ 2-V_0 ^ 2)}{2a}\\\\ (x_2 - x_1)= \frac{(0-200 ^ 2)}{- 2 * 153.5}\\\\ (x_2 - x_1)= 130.29 feet$

What current flows through a 2.56-cm-diameter rod of pure silicon that is 20.0 cm long, when 1.00 ✕ 103 V is applied to it? (Suc

vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Current, I = 0.0011 A

Explanation:

It is given that,

Diameter of rod, d = 2.56 cm

Radius of rod, r = 1.28 cm = 0.0128 m

The resistivity of the pure silicon, $\rho=2300\ \Omega-m$

Length of rod, l = 20 cm = 0.2 m

Voltage, $V=1\times 10^3\ V$

The resistivity of the rod is given by :

$R=\rho\dfrac{L}{A}$

$R=2300\ \Omega-m\dfrac{0.2\ m}{\pi (0.0128\ m)^2}$

R = 893692.30 ohms

Current flowing in the rod is calculated using Ohm's law as :

V = I R

$I=\dfrac{V}{R}$

$I=\dfrac{10^3\ V}{893692.30\ \Omega}$

I = 0.0011 A

So, the current flowing in the rod is 0.0011 A. Hence, this is the required solution.

(a) what is the acceleration of two falling sky divers (mass 132 kg including parachute) when the upward force of air resistance

Komok [63]

As per the question the mass of two falling sky drivers is 132 kg.

First we have to calculate their acceleration.

Whenever a body falls freely under gravity,its acceleration is acceleration due to gravity i.e g whose value is 9.8 m/s^2.

The earth pulls the object with a force equal to the weight of the body.

Hence the force gravity F=W= mg [ here m is mass of the body]

Here m =132 kg.

Hence force of gravity F= mg

=132 kg ×9.8 m/s^2

=1293.6 kg m/s^2

=1293.6 N [ here N[newton] is the unit of force.]

As per the question the air resistance is one fourth of weight of the bodies.

Hence air resistance F' =1/4 mg

$=\frac{1}{4} *1293.6N$

$=323.4 N$

Here F acts in vertically downward direction while F' acts in vertically upward direction.

Hence the net force acting on the particle is F-F'.

$F_{net} =1293.6N -323.4N$

$=970.2 N$

From Newton's second law of motion we know that net force is the product of mass and acceleration i.e

$F_{net} =ma$ [Here a is the acceleration]

$a =\frac{F_{net} }{m}$

$= \frac{970.2}{132} m/s^2$

$=7.35 m/s^2$

In the second question it has been told that they descend with uniform speed.hence acceleration of the two bodies will be zero.

we know that F= ma

=m×0

=0 N

Hence they will not get any force when they will descend with a uniform speed.
