Answer: 6.284N

Explanation:

Pressure is the ratio of force exerted to cross sectional area of the material.

Pressure = Force/Area

Pressure = 500,000Pa

Area = Πd²/4 where d is the diameter of the hole.

If d = 4mm = 0.004m

Area = Π×0.004²/4

Area = 1.26×10^-5m²

Force = Pressure×Area

Force = 500,000× 1.26×10^-5

F = 6.284N

The gum must be able to withstand 6.284N force

Answer:

The radius is $r = 4.434 *10^{-5} \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The magnetic field is $B = 90 mT = 90*10^{-3} \ T$

The electron kinetic energy is $KE = 1.4 eV = 1.4 * (1.60*10^{-19}) =2.24*10^{-19} \ J$

Generally for the collision to occur the centripetal force of the electron in it orbit is equal to the magnetic force applied

This is mathematically represented as

$\frac{mv^2}{r} = qvB$

=> $r = \frac{m* v}{q * B}$

Where m is the mass of electron with values $m = 9.1 *10^{-31} \ kg$

v is the escape velocity which is mathematically represented as

$v = \sqrt{\frac{2 * KE}{m} }$

So

$r = \frac{m}{qB} * \sqrt{\frac{2 * KE}{m} }$

apply indices

$r = \frac{\sqrt{2 * KE * m} }{qB}$

substituting values

$r = \frac{\sqrt{2 * 2.24*10^{-19}* 9.1 *10^{-31}} }{ 1.60 *10^{-19}* 90*10^{-3}}$

$r = 4.434 *10^{-5} \ m$

Kai takes a hamburger off of the grill and puts a piece of cheese on it. Explain how and why the cheese melts when Kai puts it o

Svetllana [295]

If Kai takes the burger off of the grill and puts cheese on it, it melts because the burger still is hot from being on the grill. The heat in and on the burger doesn’t go away immediately, so that is how and why the cheese melts.

Car 1 goes around a level curve at a constant speed of 65 km/h . The curve is a circular arc with a radius of 95 m . Car 2 goes

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

The radius of the curve that Car 2 travels on is 380 meters.

Explanation:

Speed of car 1, $v_1=65\ km/h$

Radius of the circular arc, $r_1=95\ m$

Car 2 has twice the speed of Car 1, $v_2=130\ km/h$

We need to find the radius of the curve that Car 2 travels on have to be in order for both cars to have the same centripetal acceleration. We know that the centripetal acceleration is given by :

$a=\dfrac{v^2}{r}$

According to given condition,

$\dfrac{v_1^2}{r_1}=\dfrac{v_2^2}{r_2}$

$\dfrac{65^2}{95}=\dfrac{130^2}{r_2}$

On solving we get :

$r_2=380\ m$

So, the radius of the curve that Car 2 travels on is 380 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

Find earth's approximate mass from the fact that the moon orbits earth in an average time of 27.3 days at an average distance of

Aleks [24]

We can solve the problem by using Kepler's third law, which states:

$\frac{4 \pi^2}{T^2}=\frac{GM}{r^3}$

where T is the period of revolution of the Moon around the Earth, G is the gravitational constant, M the Earth's mass and r the average distance between Earth and Moon.

Using the data of the problem:

$T=27.3 d \cdot 24 \cdot 60 \cdot 60 = 2358720 s=2.36 \cdot 10^6 s$

$r=384000 km=3.84 \cdot 10^8 m$

We can re-arrange the equation and find the Earth's mass:

$M=\frac{4 \pi^2 r^3}{GT^2}=\frac{4 \pi^2 (3.84 \cdot 10^8 m)^3}{(6.67 \cdot 10^{-11})(2.36 \cdot 10^6 s)^2}=6.0 \cdot 10^{24} kg$
