Answer:

Force exerted by car on truck will be 6000 N in opposite direction

Explanation:

It is given that mass of the car is one quarter of the mass of the truck

Force exerted by the truck on the car is 6000 N

We have to find the force exerted by car on the truck

According to newtons third law for any action there is equal and opposite reaction

So force exerted by car on the truck will be equal to 6000 N in opposite direction

A thin, horizontal, 18-cm-diameter copper plate is charged to -3.8 nC. Assume that the electrons are uniformly distributed on th

son4ous [18]

Answer:

Part a)

$E = 8436.7 N/C$

Part b)

$E = 8436.7 N/C$

Explanation:

Part a)

Electric field due to large sheet is given as

$E = \frac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}$

$\sigma = \frac{Q}{A}$

$Q = -3.8 nC$

$A = \pi(0.09)^2$

$A = 0.025 m^2$

$\sigma = \frac{-3.8\times 10^{-9}}{0.025}$

$\sigma = -1.5 \times 10^{-7} C/m^2$

now the electric field is given as

$E = \frac{-1.5 \times 10^{-7}}{2(8.85 \times 10^{-12})}$

$E = 8436.7 N/C$

Part b)

Now since the electric field is required at same distance on other side

so the field will remain same on other side of the plate

$E = 8436.7 N/C$

garik1379 [7]

Answer:

T=2.94*10^-10 N/m.

Explanation:

Biologists think that some spiders "tune" strands of their web to give enhanced response at frequencies corresponding to those at which desirable prey might struggle. Orb spider web silk has a typical diameter of 20μm, and spider silk has a density of 1300 kg/m³.

To have a fundamental frequency at 150Hz , to what tension must a spider adjust a 14cm -long strand of silk?

l=length of the spider silk, 14cm

velocity of wave = √(T/μ)

where T = tension and

μ = mass per unit length)

λ/2=l

for fundamental frequency λ/2 =14cm

(λ= wavelength of standing wave; as there will be no node

except the endpoints of silk strand)

λ = 28 cm = 0.28 m

and since frequency * wavelength = speed of wave. we have,

150 * 0.28 = √(T/μ) ..................(#)

now μ = mass/length = [volume * density]/length = [(length*area) * density] / length = area * density

= [π * (10 * 10^(-6))²] * 1300 = 13π * 10^(-8).

now putting this in equation (#) we get

150 * 0.28 = √(T/[13π * 10^(-8)]).

thus T = [13π * 10^(-8)] * (42)² =

2.94*10^-10 N/m.

calculate the time rate of change in air density during expiration. Assume that the lung has a total volume of 6000mL, the diame

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The time rate of change in air density during expiration is 0.01003kg/m³-s

Explanation:

Given that,

Lung total capacity V = 6000mL = 6 × 10⁻³m³

Air density p = 1.225kg/m³

diameter of the trachea is 18mm = 0.018m

Velocity v = 20cm/s = 0.20m/s

dv /dt = -100mL/s (volume rate decrease)

= 10⁻⁴m³/s

Area for trachea =

$\frac{\pi }{4} d^2\\= 0.785\times 0.018^2\\= 2.5434 \times10^-^4m^2$

0 - p × Area for trachea =

$\frac{d}{dt} (pv)=v\frac{ds}{dt} + p\frac{dv}{dt}$

$-1.225\times2.5434\times10^-^4\times0.20=6\times10^-^3\frac{ds}{dt} +1.225(-1\times10^-^4)$

$-1.225\times2.5434\times10^-^4\times0.20=6\times10^-^3\frac{ds}{dt} +1.225(-1\times10^-^4)$

⇒ $-0.623133\times10^-^4+1.225\times10^-^4=6\times10^-^3\frac{ds}{dt}$

$\frac{ds}{dt} = \frac{0.6018\times10^-^4}{6\times10^-^3} \\\\= 0.01003kg/m^3-s$

ds/dt = 0.01003kg/m³-s

Thus, the time rate of change in air density during expiration is 0.01003kg/m³-s

The severity of a fall depends on your speed when you strike the ground. All factors but the acceleration from gravity being the

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

<em>The object could fall from six times the original height and still be safe</em>

Explanation:

<u>Free Falling</u>

When an object is released from rest in free air (no friction), the motion is completely dependant on the acceleration of gravity g.

If we drop an object of mass m near the Earth surface from a height h, it has initial mechanical energy of

$U=m.g.h$

When the object strikes the ground, all the mechanical energy (only potential energy) becomes into kinetic energy

$\displaystyle K=\frac{1}{2}m.v^2$

Where v is the speed just before hitting the ground

If we know the speed v is safe for the integrity of the object, then we can know the height it was dropped from

$\displaystyle m.g.h=\frac{1}{2}m.v^2$

Solving for h

$\displaystyle h=\frac{m.v^2}{2mg}=\frac{v^2}{2g}$

If the drop had occurred in the Moon, then

$\displaystyle h_M=\frac{v_M^2}{2g_M}$

Where hM, vM and gM are the corresponding parameters on the Moon. We know v is the safe hitting speed and the gravitational acceleration on the Moon is g_M=1/6 g

$\displaystyle h_M=\frac{v^2}{2\frac{1}{6}g}$

$\displaystyle h_M=6\frac{v^2}{2g}=6h$

This means the object could fall from six times the original height and still be safe
