Answer:

T1 = 250.57[N] and T2 = 250.57[N]

Explanation:

First we have to extract all the information they give us about the problem, then make a free body diagram with all the forces that act on the body.

In the attached image we can see the free body diagram with the respective forces.

By summing up forces on the Y-axis, we can find the T1 and T2 force, these forces are equal since it is an initial condition of the problem. This equation can therefore be cleared.

The equations and analysis can be seen in the attached image

A silver wire 2.6 mm in diameter transfers a charge of 420 Cin 80 min. Silver contains 5.8 x 10^{28} free electrons per cubic me
never [62]

1) Current in the wire: 0.0875 A

The current in the wire is given by:

I=\frac{Q}{t}

where

Q is the charge passing a given point in the conductor

t is the time elapsed

In this problem, we have

Q = 420 C is the total charge passing through a given point in a time of

t = 80 min = 4800 s

So, the current is

I=\frac{420 C}{4800 s}=0.0875 A

2) Drift velocity of the electrons: 1.78\cdot 10^{-6} m/s

The drift velocity of the electrons in the wire is given by:

u = \frac{I}{nAq}

where

I = 0.0875 A is the current

n=5.8\cdot 10^{28} is the number of free electrons per cubic meter

A is the cross-sectional area

q=1.6\cdot 10^{-19} C is the charge of one electron

The radius of the wire is

r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{2.6 mm}{2}=1.3 mm=0.0013 m

So the cross-sectional area is

A=\pi r^2=\pi (0.0013 m)^2=5.31\cdot 10^{-6} m^2

So, the drift velocity is

u = \frac{(0.0875 A)}{(5.8\cdot 10^{28})(5.31\cdot 10^{-6})(1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C)}=1.78\cdot 10^{-6} m/s

a. For a spring-mass oscillator, if you double the mass but keep the stiffness the same, by what numerical factor does the perio
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

a) factor b=\sqrt{2}

b) factor b=\frac{1}{2}

c) factor b=1

d) factor b=1

Explanation:

Time period of oscillating spring-mass system is given as:

T=\frac{1}{f}

T={2\pi} \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }

where:

f= frequency of oscillation

m= mass of the object attached to the spring

k= stiffness constant of the spring

a) <u>On doubling the mass:</u>

  • New mass, m'=2m

<u>Then the new time period:</u>

T'=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m'}{k} }

T'=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{2m}{k} }

T'=\sqrt{2}\times  2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k} } }

T'=\sqrt{2} \times T

where the factor b=\sqrt{2} as asked in the question.

b) On quadrupling the stiffness constant while other factors are constant:

New stiffness constant, k'=4k

<u>Then the new time period:</u>

T'=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k'} }\\\\T'=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{4k} }\\\\T'=\frac{1}{2} \times  2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k} } }\\\\T'=\frac{1}{2} \times T

where the factor  b=\frac{1}{2}  as asked in the question.

c) On quadrupling the stiffness constant as well as mass:

New stiffness constant, k'=4k

New mas, m'=4m

<u>Then the new time period:</u>

T'=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m'}{k'} }\\\\T'=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{4m}{4k} }\\\\T'=1 \times  2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k} } }\\\\T'=1 \times T

where factor b=1 as asked in the question.

d) On quadrupling the amplitude there will be no effect on the time period because T is independent of amplitude as we can observe in the equation.

so, factor b=1

1. A liquid of mass 250g is heated with an electric heater. Its temperature rises from 30°C to 80°C, the specific heat capacity
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

1) 50 seconds 2) 100°C

Explanation:

(Follows formula of Power=Energy/Time)

1) 500W x X = 2000J/kg°C x .25kg x 50°C

X = 50 seconds.

2) 2000W x 300s = 1000J/kg°C x 2kg x X

X = 300

Initial temperature => 400°C-300°C = 100°C

a box weighing 155 N is pushed horizontally down the hall at constant velocity. the applied force is 83 n what is the coefficien
meriva

Answer:

μ = 0.535

Explanation:

On a level floor, normal force = weight.

N = W

Friction force = normal force × coefficient of friction.

F = Nμ

Substitute:

F = Wμ

83 = 155μ

μ = 0.535

Round as needed.
