Given Information:  

Inclined plane length = 8 m

Inclined plane height = 2 m

Weight of ice block = 300 N

Required Information:  

Force required to push ice block = F = ?  

Answer:  

Force required to push ice block =  75 N

Explanation:  

The force required to push this block of ice on a inclined plane is given by

F = Wsinθ

Where W is the weight of the ice block and θ is the angle as shown in the attached image.

Recall from trigonometry ratios,

sinθ = opposite/hypotenuse

Where opposite is height of the inclined plane and hypotenuse in the length of the inclined plane.

sinθ = 2/8

θ = sin⁻¹(2/8)

θ = 14.48°

F = 300*sin(14.48)

F = 75 N

Therefore, a force of 75 N is required to push this ice block on the given inclined plane.

A 0.65-T magnetic field is perpendicular to a circular loop of wire with 73 turns and a radius of 18 cm. If the magnetic field i
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

40.25 V

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Initial magnetic field, B1 = 0.65 T

Final magnetic field, B2 = 0 T

Number of turns, N = 73

Radius of loop, r = 18 cm = 0.18 m

Time taken, Δt = 0.12 s

The magnitude of the EMF induced in a loop of wire due to a changing magnetic field is given as:

V = | [-N * A * (B2 - B1)] / Δt |

Where A = area of loop

Area of loop = πr²

Therefore, the magnitude of the EMF induced will be:

V = | [-N * πr² * (B2 - B1)] / Δt |

V = | [-73 * π * 0.18² * (0 - 0.65)] / 0.12 |

V = |40.25| V

V = 40.25 V

This is the magnitude of the EMF induced in the loop of wire.

A 10-kg dog is running with a speed of 5.0 m/s. what is the minimum work required to stop the dog in 2.40 s?
Tasya [4]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

<em>Work = 125 joules </em>

<h3><u>Explanation and solution</u>;</h3>
  • Work is the product of force and the distance covered. Therefore, Work = force × distance.
  • Work is measured in joules.
  • Work is also a change in energy, such that work is done when energy changes, so when kinetic energy, or potential energy changes the there is work being done.

Thus; kinetic energy = work done

Kinetic energy = 1/2mv²

                       = 1/2 × 10× 5²

                       = 5 × 25

                       = 125 joules

Hence, work done is 125 joules.

A tank of water is in the shape of a cone (assume the ""point"" of the cone is pointing downwards) and is leaking water at a rat
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

a) dh/dt = -44.56*10⁻⁴ cm/s

b) dr/dt = -17.82*10⁻⁴ cm/s

Explanation:

Given:

Q = dV/dt = -35 cm³/s

R = 1.00 m

H = 2.50 m

if h = 125 cm

a) dh/dt = ?

b) dr/dt = ?

We know that

V = π*r²*h/3

and

tan ∅ = H/R = 2.5m / 1m = 2.5  ⇒ h/r = 2.5

⇒  h = (5/2)*r

⇒  r = (2/5)*h

If we apply

Q = dV/dt = -35 = d(π*r²*h/3)*dt

⇒  d(r²*h)/dt = 3*35/π = 105/π   ⇒   d(r²*h)/dt = -105/π

a) if   r = (2/5)*h

⇒  d(r²*h)/dt = d(((2/5)*h)²*h)/dt = (4/25)*d(h³)/dt = -105/π

⇒  (4/25)(3*h²)(dh/dt) = -105/π

⇒  dh/dt = -875/(4π*h²)

b) if  h = (5/2)*r

Q = dV/dt = -35 = d(π*r²*h/3)*dt

⇒  d(r²*h)/dt = d(r²*(5/2)*r)/dt = (5/2)*d(r³)/dt = -105/π

⇒  (5/2)*(3*r²)(dr/dt) = -105/π

⇒  dr/dt = -14/(π*r²)

Now, using h = 125 cm

dh/dt = -875/(4π*h²) = -875/(4π*(125)²)

⇒  dh/dt = -44.56*10⁻⁴ cm/s

then

h = 125 cm  ⇒  r = (2/5)*h = (2/5)*(125 cm)

⇒  r = 50 cm

⇒  dr/dt = -14/(π*r²) = - 14/(π*(50)²)

⇒  dr/dt = -17.82*10⁻⁴ cm/s
