A 0.0502-kg pair of fuzzy dice is attached to the rearview mirror of a car by a short string. The car accelerates at constant ra

te, and the dice hang at an angle of 3.20° from the vertical because of the car's acceleration. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the car?

Answer:

a = 0.55 m/s/s

Explanation:

As the car accelerates in forward direction the string will make some angle with the vertical direction

So here horizontal component of the tension force will accelerates the dice in forward direction along with the car

Vertical component of the tension force will balance the weight of the dice

so we will have

Tcos\theta = mg

Tsin\theta = ma

here we know that

\theta = angle made with the vertical by string

now divide the two equations

\frac{sin\theta}{cos\theta} = \frac{ma}{mg}

so we have

a = g tan\theta

a = 9.81 tan3.20

a = 0.55 m/s^2

In a compound microscope, the objective has a focal length of 1.0 cm, the eyepiece has a focal length of 2.0 cm, and the tube le
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

The  value  is   m \approx   310

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The  focal length of the objective is  f_o =  1.0 \ cm

    The  focal length of the eyepiece is  f_e  =  2.0 \  cm

    The  tube length is  L  =  25 \  cm

Generally the magnitude of the overall magnification is mathematically represented as

            m =  m_o  *  m_e

Where  m_o is the objective magnification which is mathematically represented as

        m_o  =  \frac{L}{f_o }

=>      m_o  =  \frac{25}{1 }

=>      m_o  =  25

m_e is the eyepiece magnification which is mathematically evaluated as

     m_e  =  \frac{L }{f_e }

     m_e  =  \frac{25 }{ 2}

      m_e  =  12.5 \  cm

So

    m =  25 * 12.5

     m \approx   310

Two particles, each of charge Q, are fixed at opposite corners of a square that lies in the plane of the page. A positive test c
amid [387]

Answer:

The magnitude of the net force is √2F.

Explanation:

Since the two particles have the same charge Q, they exert the same force on the test charge; both attractive or repulsive. So, the angle between the two forces is 90° in any case. Now, as we know the magnitude of these forces and that they form a 90° angle, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate the magnitude of the resultant net force:

F_N=\sqrt{F^{2}+F^{2}}\\\\F_N=\sqrt{2F^{2}}\\\\F_N=\sqrt{2}F

Then, it means that the net force acting on the test charge has a magnitude of √2F.

How do seatbelts reduce injury during a collision ?
RoseWind [281]
Among drivers and front-seat passengers, seat belts reduce the risk of death by 45%, and cut the risk of serious injury by 50%. Seat belts prevent drivers and passengers from being ejected during a crash. People not wearing a seat belt are 30 times more likely to be ejected from a vehicle during a crash.

If a 0.200-kilogram ball sits on a shelf 2.00 meters from the floor, how much mechanical energy (me) does it possess? More than
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

Mechanical energy  = 3.92 J

exactly 3.92 j

Explanation:

As we know that mechanical energy is sum of kinetic energy and potential energy of the system

so here we can say that mechanical energy is sum of kinetic energy of ball and its potential energy

Since ball is at rest so kinetic energy of the ball must be ZERO

Now for potential energy we know that

U = mgh

now we know

m = 0.2 kg

h = 2 m

now for potential ene'rgy

U = (0.20)(9.8)(2)

U = 3.92 J

so mechanical energy is given as

Mechanical Energy = 3.92 + 0 = 3.92 J
