In a spy movie, the hero, James, stands on a scale that is positioned horizontally on the floor. It registers his weight as 810 N . Unknown to our hero, the floor is actually a trap door, and when the door suddenly disappears, James and the scale fall at the acceleration of gravity, down towards an unknown fate. As James falls, he looks at the scale to see his weight. What does he see

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

His weight would be zero on the scale i.e he is weightless at that instance.

Explanation:

weight = mg

where m is the mass of the object, and g is the acceleration of gravity.

⇒ 810 = mg

During free fall, the weight of an object can be determined by:

W = mg - ma (provided that acceleration of gravity is greater than acceleration of the object)

where a is the acceleration of the object.

But since James fall at the acceleration of gravity, then:

g = a

mg = ma = 810 N

So that;

W = 810 - 810

    = 0 N

Therefore though the weight of James is 810 N, but the scale reads 0 N. this condition is referred to as weightlessness.

Suppose a signal from a vibrating motor is to be sampled discretely with a digital data acquisition system to determine the RPM of the motor. It is known that the maximum possible RPM is 1800. What is the minimum sampling frequency (in Hz) with which the signal can be sampled in order to measure the RPM of the motor

Answers

Answer:

f > 60 Hz

Explanation:

According to Nyquist's Sampling Theorem, to be fully reconstructed without any aliasing,  the signal must be sampled at least more than twice during the period of the maximum frequency of the signal.In this case, the signal to be sampled has only one frequency.However, as we have the information in RPM, we need to convert this to cycles/sec (Hz) first, as follows:

       [tex]f = \frac{1800 rev}{min} * \frac{1 min}{60 sec} = 30 Hz[/tex]

Per Nyquist, fs > 2*30 Hz

        ⇒ fs > 60 Hz

Why is our (a person's) gravitational pull NOT as strong as the Earth's gravitational pull
on us?
Gravity doesn't act on us
The Earth is closer to us than the Moon
Our mass doesn't change so the pull is really the same
We are much smaller than the Earth.

Answers

Answer:With gravity, two things with mass will want to move toward each other. However, we humans don't feel our gravity pulling on another person because it's not very big, but we do all feel the pull of Earth's gravity all the time - we're not all floating in the air, because that would be happening without Earth's gravity!

Answers

Answer:speeding up constantly

Explanation:

The graph between the time and the speed of the car shows that the speed is increasing constantly, so, option C is correct.

What is speed?

A moving object's rate of change in distance traveled is measured as speed. Speed is a scalar, which implies it is a measurement with a magnitude but no direction.

A thing that moves quickly and with high speed, covering a lot of ground in a short time. On the other hand, a slow-moving object traveling at a low speed covers a comparatively small distance in the same amount of time. An object with zero speed does not move at all.

Given:

The graph shows the speed of a car traveling east over a 12-second period,

As you can see from the graph, at time t = 0 sec the speed is 10 m/s,

At t = 3 sec, the speed = 15.3 m/s

At t = 6 sec, the speed = 20.3 m/s

Thus, speed is increasing constantly.

The car alarm on a stationary car emits sound waves with a frequency of 450 Hz. If you are moving away from the stationary car at 20 m/s, what alarm frequency do you perceive

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The frequency of wave is directly proportional to velocity

f = kV

k = f/V

f1/V1 = f2/V2

Given

f1 = 450Hz

V1 = 343m/s

f2 = ?

V2 = 20m/s

Substitute into the formula

450/343 = f2/20

Cross multiply

343f2 = 450×20

343f2 = 9000

f2 = 9000/343

f2 = 26.24Hz

block of mass m sits at rest on a rough inclined ramp that makes an angle with the horizontal. What must be true about normal force F on the block due to the ramp

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

For a body on a ramp with mass m, the forces acting on the body along the vertical component are the weight and the normal reaction.

The weight of the body acts in the negative y direction while the normal reaction acts in the positive y direction

Taking the sum of forces along the y component

Sum Fy = -W+R = ma

Since acceleration is zero

-W+R = m(0)

-W+R = 0

-W = -R

W = R

Hence the Normal reaction force acting on the on the body is equal to normal force

In each of the given pairs, choose which element will have the bigger atom. Give reasons for your choice. (a) Mg (atomic number 12) or Cl (atomic number 17) (b) Na (atomic number 11) or K (atomic number 19)

Answers

Answer:

Mg (atomic number 12)

K (atomic number 19)

Explanation:

The size of an atom is estimated in terms of its atomic radius.

The atomic radius is taken as half of the inter-nuclear distance between two covalently bonded atoms of non-metallic elements or half of the distance (d) between two nuclei in the solid - state of metals.

Across a period, atomic radii decrease progressively from left to right. This is due to the progressive increase in the nuclear charge without increase in the number of electronic shells. Down a group, atomic radii increase progressively due to the successive shells of electrons being added which have been compensated for by the increase in nuclear charge.

Cl is further right of Mg in the third period

K is below Na in the first group

SOH-CAH-TOA is used to solve for the ________
velocities in a full/angled projectile.

a. final (x and y)
b. overall
c. initial (x and y)
d. resultant

Answers

Answer:

c. initial (x and y)

Explanation:

When a projectile is launched at a velocity with a launch angle, to solve it, we must first resolve the initial velocity into the x and y components. To do this will mean we have to treat it like a triangle due to the launch angle and the direction of the projectile.

Therefore, we will have to make use of trigonometric ratios which is also known by the mnemonic "SOH CAH TOA"

Thus, this method resolves the initial x and y velocities.

A car starts from rest and accelerates for 7.2 s with an acceleration of 1.4 m/s2. How far does it travel? Answer in units of m.

Answers

Answer:

xn = 36.28 [m]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the following equation of kinematics, which is ideal for a body that moves with constant acceleration.

[tex]x=x_{0}+(v_{o} *t)+(\frac{1}{2} )*a*t^{2}[/tex]

where:

x - xo = displacement of the car [m]

Vo = initial velocity = 0

t = time = 7.2 [s]

a = acceleration = 1.4 [m/s^2]

The initial velocity is zero, as the car begins its movement from rest.

xn = (x - xo), Now replacing

xn = (0*7.2) + 0.5*1.4*(7.2^2)

xn = 36.28 [m]

A car at the top of a ramp starts from rest and rolls to the bottom of the ramp, achieving a certain final speed. If you instead wanted the car to achieve twice as much speed at the bottom of the ramp, how high should the ramp be compared to the first case

Answers

Answer:

It must be 4 times high.

Explanation:

Assuming that the car can be treated as a point mass, and that the ramp is frictionless, the total mechanical energy must be conserved.This means, that at any time, the following must be true:ΔK (change in kinetic energy) = ΔU (change in gravitational potential energy)

⇒      [tex]m*g*h = \frac{1}{2} * m*v^{2}[/tex]

Let's call v₁, to the final speed of the car, and h₁ to the height of the ramp.

       So, at the bottom of the ramp, all the gravitational potential energy

      must be equal to the kinetic energy of the car (Defining the bottom of

      the ramp as our zero reference for the gravitational potential energy):

       [tex]m*g*h_{1} = \frac{1}{2} * m*v_{1} ^{2}[/tex]  (1)

Now, let's do v₂ = 2* v₁Replacing in (1) we get:

        [tex]m*g*h_{2} = \frac{1}{2} * m*(2*v_{1}) ^{2}[/tex] (2)

Dividing (2) by (1), and rearranging terms, we get:h₂ = 4* h₁

A curve that has a radius of is banked at an angle of . If a -kg car navigates the curve at without skidding, what is the minimum coefficient of static friction between the pavement and the tires

Answers

Answer:

0.65

Explanation:

For whatever reasons, the parameters are not giving. So, I will assume by myself to make the calculations easier. You can substitute whatever it is to it from your question.

Given that

Radius of the road, r = 63 m

Speed of the car, v = 20 m/s

The relationship between a car that is passing through a curve and it's frictional force is said to be

U(s) * g = v²/r

In the formula above,

U(s) = coefficient of static friction

g = acceleration due to gravity, 9.8 m/s²

v = velocity of the car

r = radius of the road

Now when we substitute the earlier stated values, we have

U(s) * 9.8 = 20² / 63

U(s) * 9.8 = 400 / 63

U(s) * 9.8 = 6.35

U(s) = 6.35 / 9.8

U(s) = 0.65

Thus, our coefficient of static friction, based on the stated values is 0.65

A chef places an open sack of flour on a kitchen scale. The scale reading of
40 N indicates that the scale is exerting an upward force of 40 N on the sack. The magnitude of this force equals the magnitude of the force of Earth’s gravitational attraction on the sack. The chef then exerts an upward force of
10 N on the bag and the scale reading falls to 30 N.Draw a free-body diagram of the latter situation.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Initial reading on scale =40 N

So, we can conclude that weight of the sack is 40 N

After this a 10 N force is applied upward on the sack such that the net force becomes (40-10) N downward (because downward force is more)

This net downward force is the resultant of earth graviational pull and the applied upward force.

So, this downward force acts on the machine which inturn applies an upaward force of same magnitude called Normal reaction.

Peter is running laps around a circular track with a diameter of 100 meters. If it takes Peter 12 minutes to run 4 laps, how quickly is he running (in meters per second)?

Answers

Answer:

v = 1.74 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Diameter of a circular track, d = 100 m

Distance covered for the 4 laps,

[tex]D=4\pi d\\\\D=4\pi \times 100\\\\D=1256.63\ m[/tex]

Time, t = 12 minutes = 720 s

We need to find the velocity of the peter. It can be calculated as follows :

[tex]v=\dfrac{D}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{1256.63\ m}{720\ s}\\\\v=1.74\ m/s[/tex]

So, the speed is running with a velocity of 1.74 m/s.

Peter is running at 1.7453 m/sec.

Given to us,

Diameter of the circular track, D = 100 meters,

Number of laps Peter run, L = 4 laps,

Time taken by Peter, t = 12 minutes,

1 lap = circumference of the circle,

4 laps = 4 x circumference of the circle,

As we know, the circumference of a circle is given by πD.

So, 4 laps = 4 x circumference of the circle,

[tex]\begin{aligned}4 laps &= 4\times \pi \times D\\&= 4 \times \pi \times 100\\& = 1,256.6370\ meters\\\end{aligned}[/tex]

Also, we know that 1 minute has 60 sec.

so, 4 minutes = (4 x 60) seconds

Further, speed is given [tex]\bold{(\dfrac{Distance}{Time} )}[/tex]

Thus,

[tex]\begin{aligned}speed &= \dfrac{Distance\ coverd\ by\ Peter}{Time\ taken\ by\ Peter}\\&=\dfrac{1,256.6370}{12\times 60}\\&=1.7453\ m/sec \end{aligned}[/tex]

Hence, Peter is running at 1.7453 m/sec.

A fountain shoots a jetof water straight up. The nozzle is 1 cm in diameter and the speed of the water exiting the nozzle is 30 m/s. What is the force exerted by the water jet

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of water coming out per second = A x v where A is area of cross section of the nozzle and v is velocity of water

A = 3.14 x .005²

= 785 x 10⁻⁷ m²

mass of water coming out per second = 785 x 10⁻⁷ x 30 = 23.55 x 10⁻⁴ kg

momentum of this mass = 23.55 x 10⁻⁴ x 30 = 706.5 x 10⁻⁴ kg m /s .

Rate of change of momentum  = 706.5 x 10⁻⁴

Let force be F

F - mg = 706.5 x 10⁻⁴

F = mg + 706.5 x 10⁻⁴

F =  23.55 x 10⁻⁴  x 9.8 + 706.5 x 10⁻⁴

= 937.3 x 10⁻⁴ N .
