Answer:

80N

Explanation:

Force = mass x acceleration

Mass = 8kg

Acceleration due to gravity = 10m/s^2

F = 8 x 10

= 80N

Someone plans to float a small, totally absorbing sphere 0.500 m above an isotropic point source of light,so that the upward rad

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

468449163762.0812 W

Explanation:

m = Mass = $\rhoV$

V = Volume = $\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

r = Distance of sphere from isotropic point source of light = 0.5 m

R = Radius of sphere = 2 mm

$\rho$ = Density = 19 g/cm³

c = Speed of light = $3\times 10^8\ m/s$

A = Area = $\pi R^2$

I = Intensity = $\dfrac{P}{4\pi r^2}$

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Force due to radiation is given by

$F=\dfrac{IA}{c}\\\Rightarrow F=\dfrac{\dfrac{P}{4\pi r^2}{\pi R^2}}{c}\\\Rightarrow F=\dfrac{PR^2}{4r^2c}$

According to the question

$F=mg\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{PR^2}{4r^2c}=\rho \dfrac{4}{3}\pi R^3g\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{16r^2\rho c\pi Rg}{3}\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{16\times 0.002\times 19000\times \pi\times 0.5^2\times 9.81\times 3\times 10^8}{3}\\\Rightarrow P=468449163762.0812\ W$

The power required of the light source is 468449163762.0812 W

(a) Aircraft sometimes acquire small static charges. Suppose a supersonic jet has a 0.500 - μC charge and flies due west at a sp

12345 [234]

(a) $2.64\cdot 10^{-8} N$ north

We can treat the aircraft as a single point charge moving in a magnetic field. In this case, the magnetic force exerted on the plane is

$F=qvB sin \theta$

where

$q=0.500 \mu C = 0.500\cdot 10^{-6} C$ is the charge on the plane

v = 660 m/s is the velocity

$B=8.00\cdot 10^{-5} T$ is the magnitude of the magnetic field

$\theta=90^{\circ}$ is the angle between the direction of motion of the jet and of the magnetic field

Substituting,

$F=(0.5\cdot 10^{-6})(660)(8.0\cdot 10^{-5})=2.64\cdot 10^{-8} N$

The direction can be found by using Fleming's left hand rule. We have:

- index finger: magnetic field direction (straight up)

- middle finger: velocity of the plane (due west)

- force: thumb --> north

(b) Not negligible

As we can see from part (a), the magnitude of the force is not really big, so the effects are negligible.

For instance, we can compare this force with the weight of a plane. If we take a Boeing 737, its mass is about 80,000 kg, so its weight is

$W=mg=(80000)(9.8)=784,000 N$

As we can see, this is several orders of magnitude bigger than the magnetic force calculated at point (a), so the effects of the magnetic force are negligible.

A mouse runs along a baseboard in your house. The mouse's position as a function of time is given by x(t)=pt2+qt, with p = 0.36

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

0.60 m/s

Explanation:

The average velocity from t = a to t = b is:

v_avg = (x(b) − x(a)) / (b − a)

Given that x(t) = 0.36t² − 1.20t, and the time is from 1.0 to 4.0:

v_avg = (x(4.0) − x(1.0)) / (4.0 − 1.0)

v_avg = [(0.36(4.0)² − 1.20(4.0)) − (0.36(1.0)² − 1.20(1.0))] / 3.0

v_avg = [(5.76 − 4.8) − (0.36 − 1.20)] / 3.0

v_avg = [0.96 − (-0.84)] / 3.0

v_avg = 0.60

The average speed is 0.60 m/s.

kozerog [31]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Though fiber active cable is based on the concept of internal reflection but it is achieved by refractive index which transmit data through fast traveling pulses of light. It has a layer of glass and insulating casing called “cladding,”and this is is wrapped around the central fiber thereby causing light to continuously bounce back from the walls of the Cable.
