Answer:

a) 8280 Joules

b) -7920 Joules

c) 360 Joules

Explanation:

Knowns:

Wt = 1500 [N] ==> Weight of crate

F = 345 [N] ==> Force applied on crate

μk = .220 ==> Coefficient of friction between crate and floor

Uknowns:

Wworker ==> Work done by worker on the crate

Wfloor ==> Work done by floor on the crate

Wnet ==> Net work done on the crate

First off, let´s explain what work is. Work is a physical quantity that results from the dot product of Force and displacement. Since it is a dot product or scalar product, the force and displacement must be parallel.

  • W = Fd

Where W = Work, F = Force, d = displacement

Now that we know what work is, let´s solve the problem:

a) Wworker = 345 [N] * 24 [m] = 8280 [J]

b) To solve b, we need to find out what is the Force of friction acting on the crate. We know the coefficient of friction and the weight of the crate. The equation for Force of friction is:

  • Ff = μN

Where N is the normal force acting on the Crate. Since we know the weight of the crate, we know that the floor must be exerting the same force on the crate as the crate is exerting on the floor (Newtons third law). Therefore

  • N = Wt = 1500 [N]

Also, the Force of Friction is acting in opposite direction of the worker´s force, this means any work done by friction on the crate will be negative:

Wfloor = -μNd = .22*1500[N]*24[m] = -7920 [J]

c) Finally, the net work done is the sum of any work done on the system.

Wnet = Wworker + Wfloor

Wnet = 8280 [J] + (-7920[J])

Wnet = 360 [J]

Which statement about electrons and atomic orbitals is NOT true?
balandron [24]

<em>An electron has the same amount of energy in all orbitals  is not true</em>

\boxed{\boxed{\bold{Further~explanation}}}

In an atom there are levels of energy in the skin and sub skin.

  • This energy level is expressed in the form of electron configurations.

Writing electron configurations starts from the lowest to the highest sub-shell energy level.

So electrons that occupy the orbitals in the lowest sub-skin have the lowest energy level

  • In the principle of Pauli's prohibition it was stated that there are no two electrons in one atom that can have the same four quantum numbers.

So suppose that there are two electrons occupying one orbital can have the same main quantum number (n), azimuth (l) and magnetic (m), then the last quantum number that is the quantum spin number (s) must be different.

So that the two electrons are different from just the quantum spin number, even though the other quantum numbers are the same.

So in one orbital only a maximum of 2 electrons is occupied, because if there is a third electron, this third electron will have the same quantum spin number as the previous electron

  • The electron cloud is a visual representation of the location of electrons in an atom.

Orbital is the place around the nucleus where electrons may be found

Electron clouds show the state of electrons in their orbitals

So electron clouds can show the condition of all orbitals in an atom

The lowest energy level of an electron occupies a sub-skin of 1s which has only one orbital

Charging electrons in the sub skin uses the following sequence:

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p⁶, 5s², 4d¹⁰, 5p⁶, 6s², etc.

Statement about electrons and atomic orbitals is not true is An electron has the same amount of energy in all orbitals

A physics department has a Foucault pendulum, a long-period pendulum suspended from the ceiling. The pendulum has an electric ci
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

t=37 mins -> 2220sec

We want "T" which is the pendulum time constant

Using this equation

.5A=Ae^(-t/T)

The .5A is half the amplitude

Take ln of both sides to get ride of Ae

=ln(.5)=-2220/T

Now rearrange to = T

T=-2220/ln(.5) = 3202.78sec / 60 secs = 53.38 mins -> first part of the answer.

The second part is really easy. It took 37 mins to decay half way. meaning to decay another half of 50% which equals 25% it will take an additional 37 mins!

If the mass of a material is 45 grams and the volume of the material is 8 cm^3, what would the density of the material be?
Svet_ta [14]
The density of the substance is the ratio of its mass over the space it occupies. In mathematical equation, this can be expressed as,

        ρ = m / v

where ρ is density, m is mass, and v is volume. 

Substituting the known values from the given,
 
    ρ = (45 g) / (8 cm³)

     ρ = 5.625 g/cm³

<em>ANSWER: 5.625 g/cm³</em>

1) A capacitor consists of two metal surfaces separated by an electrical insulator with no electrically conductive path through
ki77a [65]

Answer:

Current flows in a resistor-capacitor circuit because of the varying electric field across the plates of a capacitor induced by an AC voltage source <em>(displacement current)</em>

Explanation:

In a capacitor, current does not flow the same way it does in a circuit, that is through conduction. This is because there is a highly resistive material in between the plates of the capacitor. Rather current flows through a phenomenon called displacement current.

Because of change in charge accumulation with time above the plates, the electric field changes causing the displacement current.

Displacement current arises due to the flow of electrons as a result of the varying magnetic fields set up on the plates of the capacitor when supplied with an AC voltage. It is important to note that a DC voltage does not induce any displacement current.

<em>Through this, phenomenon discovered by Maxwell,  current is able to flow in a resistor-capacitor circuit despite the absence of an electrically conductive path through the plates.</em>
