The maximum speed the mass can have before it breaks is 2.27 m/s.

The given parameters:

maximum mass the string can support before breaking, m = 17.9 kg
radius of the circle, r = 0.525 m

The maximum speed the mass can have before it breaks is calculated as follows;

$T = ma_c\\\\Mg = \frac{Mv^2}{r} \\\\v^2 = rg\\\\v = \sqrt{rg} \\\\v_{max} = \sqrt{0.525 \times 9.8} \\\\v_{max} = 2.27 \ m/s$

Thus, the maximum speed the mass can have before it breaks is 2.27 m/s.

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

C. Each capacitor carries the same amount of charge.

Explanation:

When two or more different capacitors are connected in series across a potential source, each capacitor carries the same amount of charge.

In a series connected capacitor, sane amount of charge flows through the capacitors while different potential difference is passed across them.

The capacitors have the same charge as the charge flowing out directly from the potential source called emf since the emf is the driving force of charge in a circuit.

In a collision between two unequal masses, which mass receives a greater magnitude impulse?

Contact [7]

The answer to this question depends upon Newton's third law of motion. For every action, there's an equal and opposite reaction. Because of this law, during the collision between two unequal masses, the impulse that each mass receives will be of equal magnitude and and opposite sign.

A tube of mercury with resistivity 9.84 × 10 -7 Ω ∙ m has an electric field inside the column of mercury of magnitude 23 N/C tha

slava [35]

Answer:

The current through the tube is 73.39A.

Explanation:

The relationship between the resistivity $\rho$ , the electric field $E$ , and the current density $J$ is given by

$\rho = \dfrac{E}{J}$

This equation can be solved for $J$ to get:

$J = \dfrac{E}{\rho}$

Since the current is $I = J\cdot A$

$I= J\cdot A = \dfrac{E}{\rho} \cdot A$

Now, for the tube of mercury $\rho = 9.84*10^{-7}\: \Omega \cdot m$ , $E = 23N/C$ , and the area is $A = \pi r^2 = \pi (1.0*10^{-3}m)^2 = 3.14*10^{-6}m^2$ ; therefore,

$I= \dfrac{23N/C}{9.84*10^{-7}\Omega\cdot m } *3.14*10^{-6}m^2$

$\boxed{I = 73.39A.}$

Hence, the current through the mercury tube is 73.39A.

At which temperature do the lattice and conduction electron contributions to the specific heat of Copper become equal.

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

At 3.86K

Explanation:

The following data are obtained from a straight line graph of C/T plotted against T2, where C is the measured heat capacity and T is the temperature:

gradient = 0.0469 mJ mol−1 K−4 vertical intercept = 0.7 mJ mol−1 K−2

Since the graph of C/T against T2 is a straight line, the are related by the straight line equation: C /T =γ+AT². Multiplying by T, we get C =γT +AT³ The electronic contribution is linear in T, so it would be given by the first term: Ce =γT. The lattice (phonon) contribution is proportional to T³, so it would be the second term: Cph =AT³. When they become equal, we can solve these 2 equations for T. This gives: T = √γ A .

We can find γ and A from the graph. Returning to the straight line equation C /T =γ+AT². we can see that γ would be the vertical intercept, and A would be the gradient. These 2 values are given. Substituting, we f ind: T =

√0.7/ 0.0469 = 3.86K.
