A dockworker applies a constant horizontal force of 90.0 N to a block of ice on a smooth horizontal floor. The frictional force

Oliga [24]

Answer:

The mass of the ice block is equal to 70.15 kg

Explanation:

The data for this exercise are as follows:

F=90 N

insignificant friction force

x=13 m

t=4.5 s

m=?

applying the equation of rectilinear motion we have:

x = xo + vot + at^2/2

where xo = initial distance =0

vo=initial velocity = 0

a is the acceleration

therefore the equation is:

x = at^2/2

Clearing a:

a=2x/t^2=(2x13)/(4.5^2)=1.283 m/s^2

we use Newton's second law to calculate the mass of the ice block:

F=ma

m=F/a = 90/1.283=70.15 kg

The magnetic field of a long, straight, and closely-wound solenoid, inside the solenoid at a point near the center, is 0.645 T.

Savatey [412]

Answer:

B'=1.935 T

Explanation:

Given that

magnetic field ,B= 0.645 T

We know that magnetic filed in the solenoid is given as

$B=\mu _0 n\ I$

I=Current

n=Number of turn per unit length

μ0 =magnetic permeability

Now when the current increased by 3 factors

I'=3 I

Then the magnetic filed

$B'=\mu _0 n\ I'$

$B'=\mu _0 n\ (3I)$

B'=3 B

That is why

B' = 3 x 0.645 T

B'=1.935 T

Therefore the new magnetic filed will be 1.935 T.

A ray of light traveling through air strikes a piece of diamond at an angle of incidence equal to 56 degrees. Calculate the angu

Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

The angle of separation is $\Delta \theta = 0.93 ^o$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The angle of incidence is $\theta _ i = 56^o$

The refractive index of violet light in diamond is $n_v = 2.46$

The refractive index of red light in diamond is $n_r = 2.41$

The wavelength of violet light is $\lambda _v = 400nm = 400*10^{-9}m$

The wavelength of red light is $\lambda _r = 700nm = 700*10^{-9}m$

Snell's Law can be represented mathematically as

$\frac{sin \theta_i}{sin \theta_r} = n$

Where $\theta_r$ is the angle of refraction

=> $sin \theta_r = \frac{sin \theta_i}{n}$

Now considering violet light

$sin \theta_r__{v}} = \frac{sin \theta_i}{n_v}$

substituting values

$sin \theta_r__{v}} = \frac{sin (56)}{2.46}$

$sin \theta_r__{v}} = 0.337$

$\theta_r__{v}} = sin ^{-1} (0.337)$

$\theta_r__{v}} = 19.69^o$

Now considering red light

$sin \theta_r__{R}} = \frac{sin \theta_i}{n_r}$

substituting values

$sin \theta_r__{R}} = \frac{sin (56)}{2.41}$

$sin \theta_r__{R}} = 0.344$

$\theta_r__{R}} = sin ^{-1} (0.344)$

$\theta_r__{R}} = 20.12^o$

The angle of separation between the red light and the violet light is mathematically evaluated as

$\Delta \theta = \theta_r__{R}} - \theta_r__{V}}$

substituting values

$\Delta \theta =20.12 - 19.69$

$\Delta \theta = 0.93 ^o$

An element's atomic number is 55. How many protons would an atom of this element have?

AfilCa [17]

The atomic number of an element is the number of protons the element has, so the element with the atomic number 55 has 55 protons.
