An empty cardboard box falls from a high platform. Through the use of special equipment it was found that the energy of the cardboard box at the top of the fall was more than the energy of the box at the bottom of the fall. Explain.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The mechanical energy of the cardboard box, M.E. = K.E. + P.E.

Where;

P.E. = The potential energy of the cardboard box = m·g·h

K.E. = The kinetic energy of the cardboard box = (1/2)·m·v²

Where;

m = Mass of the cardboard box

g = The (constant) acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.81 m/s²

h = The height of the cardboard box

v = The velocity of the cardboard box

At the top of the fall, where h = The height of the platform = [tex]h_{platform}[/tex], and v = 0 (the box is initially at rest at the top), the M.E. is given as follows;

[tex]M.E._{top}[/tex] = P.E. + K.E. = m·g·[tex]h_{platform}[/tex] + (1/2) × m × 0² = m·g·[tex]h_{platform}[/tex]

However, at the bottom of the fall, the height of the box, h = 0, the velocity of the box, v = 0, therefore, the total energy at the bottom, after the box comes to rest, [tex]M.E._{bottom}[/tex] = 0

Therefore;

The total energy of the box at the top of the fall, .[tex]M.E._{top}[/tex] = m·g·[tex]h_{platform}[/tex] was more than the total energy of the box at the bottom of the fall,

[tex]M.E._{bottom}[/tex] = 0

Annie has a soccer ball and a cake ball she kicks each ball with the same Force the soccer ball accelerates at 3 m per second squared and the kickball accelerates at 5 m per second squared use Newton's law to describe why the kickball has a greater acceleration

Answers

Answer: The acceleration will be greater in the kickball than the soccer ball since the kick ball has a smaller mass and provided they are acted upon with equal force magnitude.

Explanation:

We can prove this by substituting with numerical values.

Say the force she kicked both balls with was 30 N. The mass of the soccer ball is 10kg and the mass of the kickball is 6kg.

Applying Newtons Second Law, F = ma

For the soccer ball:

30 = 10a
a = 30/10
a = 3

For the kickball:

30 = 6a
a = 30/6
a = 5

Hence the kickball will travel with a greater acceleration given the same force is acted upon and has a smaller mass than the soccer ball

1. The hydrogen balloons which are used to collect weather information from the atmosphere is made of plastic and never completely filled. Thus the pressure inside and outside are same. The balloon is filled with 150 litres of hydrogen, the air temperature is 27°C and the atmospheric pressure is 98 kPa. The balloon rises to a height where it radios back that the pressure is 30kPa and the temperature is - 33°C. i. What is the Kelvin temperature equivalent to 27°C and -33°C? (1 mark) ii. What is the volume of hydrogen at this height? (2 marks)​

Answers

Answer:

Answer:- Volume of the balloon is 5.78 L.

Solution:- There are 0.24 moles of hydrogen gas in a balloon at 35 degree C and 1.05 atm pressure. It asks to calculate the volume of the balloon.

This problem is based on ideal gas law equation:

P = 1.05 atm, n = 0.24 mole, T = 35 + 273 = 308 K

R =

V = ?

The equation could be rearranged for the volume as:

Let's plug in the values and do the calculations to get the volume of the balloon:

V = 5.78 L

So, the volume of the gas balloon is 5.78 L.

A jet airplane is in level flight. The mass of the airplane is m=8950 kg. The airplane travels at a constant speed around a circular path of radius R=9.33 mi and makes one revolution every T=0.123 h. Given that the lift force acts perpendicularly upward from the plane defined by the wings, what is the magnitude of the lift force acting on the airplane?

Answers

Answer:

The net force is 91780.8 N.

Explanation:

mass, m = 8950 kg

Radius, R = 9.33 miles = 15015.2 m

Time, T = 0.123 h = 442.8 s

There are two forces acting on the plane.

Horizontal force is the centripetal force and the vertical force is the weight.

[tex]Fx =m R w^2\\\\Fx = m R \frac{4\pi^2}{T^2}\\\\Fx = 8950\times 15015.2\times \frac{4\times 3.14\times 3.14}{442.8\times 442.8}\\\\Fx = 27030.8 N \\\\Fy = m g \\\\ Fy = 8950\times 9.8 \\\\Fy = 87710 N[/tex]

The net force is

[tex]F = \sqrt{Fx^2 + Fy^2}\\\\F = \sqrt {27030.8^2 + 87710^2}\\\\F = 91780.8 N[/tex]

A washing machine heats 10kg of water in each wash cycle. How much energy is saved by washing at 30'c instead of 50'c if the starting temperature of the cold water is 16'c? The specific heat capacity of water is 4200 J/Kg'c

Answers

Answer:

[tex]8.4 \times 10^{5}\; \rm J[/tex], assuming that there's no heat exchange between the washing machine and the environment.

Explanation:

Let [tex]m[/tex] denote the mass of water and [tex]c[/tex] the specific heat capacity of water. The energy required to raise the temperature of that much water by [tex]\Delta T[/tex] would be:

[tex]Q = c \cdot m \cdot \Delta T[/tex].

Washing at [tex]30\; \rm ^{\circ} C[/tex] would require a temperature change of [tex]\Delta T = 30\; \rm ^{\circ} C - 16\; ^{\circ} \rm C = 14\; \rm K[/tex].

Washing at [tex]50\; \rm ^{\circ} C[/tex] would require a temperature change of [tex]\Delta T = 50\; \rm ^{\circ} C - 16\; ^{\circ} \rm C = 34\; \rm K[/tex].

In both situations, [tex]c = 4.2 \times 10^{3}\; \rm J \cdot kg \cdot K^{-1}[/tex] while [tex]m = 10\; \rm kg[/tex].

Calculate the energy required in either situation:

Washing at [tex]30\; \rm ^{\circ} C[/tex]:

[tex]\begin{aligned}& Q({30\; ^{\circ} {\rm C}}) \\ &= c \cdot m \cdot \Delta T \\ &= 4.2 \times 10^{3}\; \rm J \cdot kg \cdot K^{-1} \times 10\; \rm kg \times 14\; \rm K \\ &= 588000 \times 10^{5}\; \rm J\end{aligned}[/tex].

Washing at [tex]50\; ^{\circ} {\rm C}[/tex]:

[tex]\begin{aligned}& Q({50\; ^{\circ} {\rm C}}) \\ &= c \cdot m \cdot \Delta T \\ &= 4.2 \times 10^{3}\; \rm J \cdot kg \cdot K^{-1} \times 10\; \rm kg \times 34\; \rm K \\ &= 1428000 \; \rm J\end{aligned}[/tex].

[tex]1428000\; \rm J - 588000\; \rm J = 8.4 \times 10^{5}\; \rm J[/tex].

An instructor wishes to determine the wavelength of the light in a laser beam. To do so, he directs the beam toward a partition with two tiny slits separated by 0.195 mm. An interference pattern appears on a screen that lies 5.10 m from the slit pair. The instructor's measurements show that two adjacent bright interference fringes lie 1.55 cm apart on the screen. What is the laser's wavelength (in nm)

Answers

Answer:

λ = 610.6 nm

Explanation:

We are given;

Separation distance; d = 0.195 mm = 0.195 × 10^(-3) m

Interference pattern distance; D = 4.95 m

Width of the two adjacent bright interference; β = 1.55 cm = 1.55 × 10^(-2) m

Formula for the Fringe width is;

β = Dλ/d

Where;

λ is laser's wavelength

Thus;

λ = (d × β)/(D)

λ = (0.195 × 10^(-3) × 1.55 × 10^(-2))/4.95

λ = 610.6 × 10^(-9) m

λ = 610.6 nm

a car of mass 500 kg travelling with a speed of 54km/hr is brought to rest over a distance of 40 m. find the acceleration and force applied on brakes​

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

[tex]a=\frac{v_f-v_0}{t}[/tex] We don't yet need the mass of the car, as we can see by this equation. What we do need is the velocity of the car, the initial velocity, in meters per second, and right now it's in km/hr. Not good. We need to convert. The conversion is as follows:

[tex]54\frac{km}{hr}*\frac{1000m}{1km}*\frac{1hr}{3600s}=15\frac{m}{s}[/tex] Ok, that's good. Now we have everything we need but the time element. If the car traveled a distance of 40 meters at 15 m/s, then we can use the d = rt equation to solve for t, and when we find t we plug it into the acceleration equation:

40 = 15t and

t = 2.7 seconds. The car traveled for 2.7 seconds to go that 40 meters. That's the only reason we were given the displacement. We need it for nothing else but that.

Filling in the acceleration equation now:

[tex]a=\frac{0-15}{2.7}=-5.6\frac{m}{s^2}[/tex] and the negative indicates we are in fact slowing down. That's the answer for the acceleration portion of the problem; now we need the force, F, applied to the brakes.

F = ma where m is mass (we get to use that value now!) and a is -5.6 m/s/s.

F = 500(-5.6) and

F = -2800 N and the negative here means that the force of the brakes is acting against the motion of the car: the brakes are pulling the car "backwards" to stop while the car's motion is forward. The negative indicates the direction the force is being applied.

Which choice shows the correct sequence of features formed by continued wave erosion?

Answers

Answer:

Wave-cut cliff, sea arch, sea stacks

Explanation:

The effect of a wave erosion is made obvious by the structures formed by the wave action.

The high areas of land adjacent to the incoming wave develop the early features or the formation of wave action, which includes the wave-cut cliff

The continuous undercutting of the cliff by the wave results in the formation of the wave cut platform

The effect of the wave further on a cliff, results in the formation of a sea arch and finally a sea stack

Therefore, the correct sequence is the wave-cut cliff, sea arch, sea stacks

A 4000 N force acts on an object that initially has a momentum of 400 kg-m/s for 0.9 seconds. What is the final momentum of the system?

Answers

Answer:

4360 Kgm/s

Explanation:

Applying,

Ft = M-M'................. Equation 1

Where F = force, t = time, M = Final momentum, M' = Initial momentum.

make M the subject of the equation

M = Ft+M'............ Equation 2

From the question,

Given: F = 4000 N, t = 0.9 seconds, M' = 400 kg-m/s

Substitute these values into equation 2

M = 4000+(0.9×400)

M = 4000+360

M = 4360 kgm/s

Hence the final momentum is 4360 kgm/s

Answers

Answer:

The speed of the first half is 75 km/h and for the second half is 50 km/h.

Explanation:

A person driving a car from a to b 90km apart for the first half of the distance travels with speed v1 the second half of the distance travels with a speed of v2=2v1/3. Calculate his speed per each the distance so that after 1.5 hours that person reaches b

Total distance, D = 90 km

Let the time for he first half is t and for the second half is t'.

Distance = speed x time

45 = v1 x t .... (1)

And

45 = v2 x t' .... (2)

Total time is T = t + t'

[tex]1.5 = \frac{45}{v_1}+\frac{45}{v_2}\\\\1.5 = \frac{45}{v_1}+\frac{3\times 45}{2v_1}\\\\1.5 = \frac{90+135}{2v_1}\\\\3v_1 = 225 \\\\v_1 = 75 km/h[/tex]

Now, v2 = 2 x 75/3 = 50 km/h

Explanation:

A simple machine can be defined as a type of machine with no moving parts but can be used to perform work.

Basically, a simple machine allows for the transformation of energy into work. The six simple machines are; lever, wedge, pulley, screw, wheel and axle, and inclined plane.

Inclined plane is a simple machine set at an angle and then used to lift an object.

In Physics, the velocity ratio of a simple machine is calculated as a ratio of the distance moved by the effort to the vertical distance through which a load is raised.

Mathematically, the velocity ratio of an inclined plane of angle Ɵ, acting as a simple machine is given by the formula;

Velocity ratio (V.R) = 1/sinƟ

Basically, an increase in the angle of inclination (measured in degrees) of an inclined plane increases its velocity ratio.
