Open Box. Consider a hollow box with the top missing. The sides have negligible thickness and each has length L and mass m. (a) Find the x-coordinate of the center of mass.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x_{cm} = L / 2

Explanation:

The center of mass is defined by

         [tex]x_{cm}[/tex] = 1 / M ∑ m_{i}  x_{i}

where M is the total mass of the system

in this case the system is continuous so, for which we use the density

      ρ = dm / dx

      dm = ρ dx

substituting

        x_{cm} = 1 / M ∫ x ρ dx

        x_{cm} = ρ / M ∫ x dx

we integrate and evaluate from x = 0 to x = L

        x_{cm} = ρ / M (L² /2 -0)

       

we introduce the density which is constant

        ρ = M / L

        x_{cm} = 1 /M (M/L)  L² / 2

        x_{cm} = L / 2

As the ball falls, how will the kinetic energy change? How will the gravitational potential energy change? How will the mechanical energy change?

Answers

Answer:

the Kinetic energy of the ball also increases.

the potential energy of the ball also increases.

mechanical energy of ball remains same.

Explanation:

KINETIC ENERGY:

The kinetic energy of the object depends upon the velocity of the object. As the formula suggests:

K.E = (1/2)mv²

As, the ball is falling down, it accelerates with a value equal to acceleration due to gravity. Thus, the speed increases as the ball falls.

Therefore, the Kinetic energy of the ball also increases.

POTENTIAL ENERGY:

Th potential energy of an object depends upon its height. As, the formula suggests:

P.E = mgh

As, the ball falls, its height decreases.

Therefore, the potential energy of the ball also increases.

MECHANICAL ENERGY:

Mechanical energy is the sum of kinetic energy and potential energy. According to law of conservation of energy, the total energy of the system always remains constant. It may change the forms but the total energy remains same. Thus, in this case potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.

Therefore, mechanical energy of ball remains same.

How many turns are in its secondary coil, if its input voltage is 120 V and the primary coil has 210 turns

Answers

Complete Question

How many turns are in its secondary coil, if its input voltage is 120 V and the primary coil has 210 turns.

The output from the secondary coil is  12 V

Answer:

The value  is  [tex]N_s  =  21 \  turns [/tex]

Explanation:

From the equation we are told that

   The input voltage is  [tex]V_{in}  = 120 \ V[/tex]

   The number of turns of the primary coil is [tex]N_p =  210 \  turn[/tex]

    The output from the secondary is [tex]V_o =  12V[/tex]

From the transformer equation

   [tex]\frac{N_p}{V_{in}}  =\frac{N_s}{V_o}[/tex]

Here [tex]N_s[/tex] is the number of turns in the secondary coil

=> [tex]N_s  =  \frac{N_p}{V_{in}}  *  V_s[/tex]

=>[tex]N_s  =  \frac{210}{120}  *  12[/tex]

=>[tex]N_s  =  21 \  turns [/tex]

A 30.0-kgkg box is being pulled across a carpeted floor by a horizontal force of 230 NN , against a friction force of 210 NN . What is the acceleration of the box?

Answers

Answer:

The acceleration of the box is 0.67 m/s²

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of box = 30.0 kg

Horizontal force = 230 N

Friction force = 210 N

We need to calculate the acceleration of the box

Using balance equation

[tex]F-f_{k}=ma[/tex]

[tex]a=\dfrac{F-f_{k}}{m}[/tex]

Where, F = horizontal force

[tex]f_{k}[/tex] =frictional force

m= mass of box

a = acceleration

Put the value into the formula

[tex]a=\dfrac{230-210}{30}[/tex]

[tex]a=0.67\ m/s^2[/tex]

Hence, The acceleration of the box is 0.67 m/s²

What is the energy contained in a 1.30 m3 volume near the Earth's surface due to radiant energy from the Sun

Answers

Answer:

The energy contained is 5.856 x 10⁻ J

Explanation:

Average energy density of electromagnetic radiation per unit volume is given by the equation;

[tex]U_{avg} = \frac{1}{2} \epsilon _o E_o[/tex]²

where;

[tex]\epsilon _o[/tex] is permittivity of free space

[tex]E_o[/tex] is maximum electric field strength, this can be calculated from the intensity of sun reaching the Earth's surface.

[tex]E_o = \sqrt{\frac{2I}{\epsilon_o C} }[/tex]

The intensity of sun reaching the Earth is 1350 W/m²

[tex]E_o = \sqrt{\frac{2*1350}{8.885*10^{-12}*3*10^8 } } \\\\E_o = 1008.96 \ V/m\\[/tex]

Average energy density of electromagnetic radiation per unit volume;

[tex]U_{avg} = \frac{1}{2} \epsilon_o E_o^2\\\\U_{avg} = \frac{1}{2} (8.85*10^{-12})(1008.96)^2\\\\U_{avg} = 4.505 *10^{-6} \ J/m^3[/tex]

The energy contained in a 1.30 m³ volume is given by;

E = (4.505 x 10⁻⁶)(1.3)

E = 5.856 x 10⁻ J

Therefore, the energy contained is 5.856 x 10⁻ J

A car moving with an intial velocity of 60m/s is brought to rest in 30 seconds calculate the acceleration

Answers

Answer:

a = 2 [m/s^2]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the expressions of kinematics, we must bear in mind that when a body is at rest its velocity is zero.

[tex]v_{f} = v_{i} - (a*t)[/tex]

where:

Vf = final velocity = 0

Vi = initial velocity = 60 [m/s]

a = desacceleration [m/s^2]

t = time = 30 [s]

Note: the negative sign of the above equation means that the car is slowing down, i.e. its speed decreases.

0 = 60 - (a*30)

a = 2 [m/s^2]

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.

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 .

(iii) Why do right angle mirrors produce three images of the object?​

Answers

Explanation:

The two mirrors inclined to each other formed the first two images with are of the same size as the object while the third mirror is produced from the intersection of rays that emanated during the production of the first two images to produce a third image which is smaller than the object and there making the total number of images to be 3.

Hence this mirrors produces 3 images due to the third image formed from the intersection of the rays that produces the first two images.

The formula that relates the image produced by inclined mirror and the angle of inclination is expressed as:

number of images n = 360/θ - 1

θ is the angle of inclination of the two mirrors

n is the number of images

If the mirrors are inclined at right angles, then θ = 90°

Substitute into the formula;

n = 360/90 -1

n = 36/9 -1

n = 4-1

n = 3

(Answer: A. 16.2m/s B. 11.5m)

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the velocity be v .

vertical component of the velocity = v sin 60 = √3 v /2

it reaches maximum height of 10 m .

v² = 2 gh

( √3 v/2 )² = 2 x 9.8 x 10

3 v² = 196 x 4

v² = 65.33 x 4

v = 16.2  m /s

Let time taken to reach height of 10 m

v = u - gt

v sin 60 = 9.8 t

16.2 x √3  /2 = 9.8 t

t = 1.43 s

horizontal distance covered = v cos 60 x t

16.2 x .5 x 1.43 = 11 .5 m

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.
