1. The constant horizontal force applied by the woman:
a. has the same magnitude as the weight of the box
b. is greater than the weight of the box
c. has the same magnitude as the total force which resists themotion of the box
d. is greater than the total force which resists the motion ofthe box

Answer:C

Explanation:

When a constant horizontal force is applied to the box, box started moving in the horizontal direction such that it moves with constant velocity v_0

Constant velocity implies that net force on the box is zero

i.e. there must be an opposing force which is equal to the applied force and friction force can serve that purpose.

So option c is the correct choice.

slega [8]

Answer:

\epsilon = 2.96 \times 10^{-11} \ V

Explanation:

given,

magnetic field strength =  1.40 ✕ 10⁻³ T

frequency of oscillation = 60 Hz

diameter of RBC = 7.5 μm

EMF = ?

\epsilon = NBA\omega

\epsilon = NB(\pi\ r^2)\ (2\pi f)

\epsilon = NB(\pi\ (\dfrac{d}{2})^2)\ (2\pi f)

\epsilon = (1)\ 1.4 \times 10^{-3}(\pi\ (\dfrac{7.5 \times 10^{-6}}{2})^2)\ (2\pi\times 60)

\epsilon = 2.96 \times 10^{-11} \ V

maximum emf that can generate around the perimeter of the cell \epsilon = 2.96 \times 10^{-11} \ V

A swimmer does 3,560 J of work in 55 s. What is the swimmer’s power output? Round your answer to two significant figures. The po
Natasha2012 [34]
The value of the swimmer's power output is calculated by dividing the work done by the time it took for the work to be completed. From the given in this item,
                              P = 3560 J/ 55 s = 64.73 W
Rounding off to two significant figures will give us 65 W.

We need the power law for the change in potential energy (due to the Coulomb force) in bringing a charge q from infinity to distance r from charge Q. We are only interested in the ratio U₁/U₂, so I'm not going to bother with constants (like the permittivity of space).

Consider an object with s=12cm that produces an image with s′=15cm. Note that whenever you are working with a physical object, t
Leni [432]

A. 6.67 cm

The focal length of the lens can be found by using the lens equation:

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{s}+\frac{1}{s'}

where we have

f = focal length

s = 12 cm is the distance of the object from the lens

s' = 15 cm is the distance of the image from the lens

Solving the equation for f, we find

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{12 cm}+\frac{1}{15 cm}=0.15 cm^{-1}\\f=\frac{1}{0.15 cm^{-1}}=6.67 cm

B. Converging

According to sign convention for lenses, we have:

- Converging (convex) lenses have focal length with positive sign

- Diverging (concave) lenses have focal length with negative sign

In this case, the focal length of the lens is positive, so the lens is a converging lens.

C. -1.25

The magnification of the lens is given by

M=-\frac{s'}{s}

where

s' = 15 cm is the distance of the image from the lens

s = 12 cm is the distance of the object from the lens

Substituting into the equation, we find

M=-\frac{15 cm}{12 cm}=-1.25

D. Real and inverted

The magnification equation can be also rewritten as

M=\frac{y'}{y}

where

y' is the size of the image

y is the size of the object

Re-arranging it, we have

y'=My

Since in this case M is negative, it means that y' has opposite sign compared to y: this means that the image is inverted.

Also, the sign of s' tells us if the image is real of virtual. In fact:

- s' is positive: image is real

- s' is negative: image is virtual

In this case, s' is positive, so the image is real.

E. Virtual

In this case, the magnification is 5/9, so we have

M=\frac{5}{9}=-\frac{s'}{s}

which can be rewritten as

s'=-M s = -\frac{5}{9}s

which means that s' has opposite sign than s: therefore, the image is virtual.

F. 12.0 cm

From the magnification equation, we can write

s'=-Ms

and then we can substitute it into the lens equation:

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{s}+\frac{1}{s'}\\\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{s}+\frac{1}{-Ms}

and we can solve for s:

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{M-1}{Ms}\\f=\frac{Ms}{M-1}\\s=\frac{f(M-1)}{M}=\frac{(-15 cm)(\frac{5}{9}-1}{\frac{5}{9}}=12.0 cm

G. -6.67 cm

Now the image distance can be directly found by using again the magnification equation:

s'=-Ms=-\frac{5}{9}(12.0 cm)=-6.67 cm

And the sign of s' (negative) also tells us that the image is virtual.

H. -24.0 cm

In this case, the image is twice as tall as the object, so the magnification is

M = 2

and the distance of the image from the lens is

s' = -24 cm

The problem is asking us for the image distance: however, this is already given by the problem,

s' = -24 cm

so, this is the answer. And the fact that its sign is negative tells us that the image is virtual.

Jenny puts a book on her desk. she lifts the book up with her finger, using a force of 0.5N .The cover is 10cm wide .
zepelin [54]

The turning moment on the cover of the book is 0.05 Nm.

Explanation:

Given:

Force applied (F) = 0.5 N

Distance covered (d) = 10 cm

Converting Distance covered from cm to meter we get (d)= 0.1 m

To find:

Turning Moment (M) on the cover of the book = ?

Formula to be used:                                    

Turning Moment (M) = F × d

                                  = 0.5 × 0.1

                                   = 0.05 Nm

Thus the turning moment on the cover of the book is found to be 0.05 Nm
