Block 1 and Block 2 have the same mass, m, and are released from the top of two inclined planes of the same height making 30 deg

ree and 60 degree angles with the horizontal direction, respectively. If the coefficient of friction is the same in both cases, which of the blocks is going faster when it reaches the bottom of its respective incline?
a. Block 1 is faster.
b. Block 2 is faster.
c. We must know the actual masses of the blocks to answer.
d. Both blocks have the same speed at the bottom.
e. There is not enough information to answer the question because we do not know the value of the coefficient of kinetic friction.

An experiment is designed to test what color of light will activate a photoelectric cell the best. The photocell is set in a cir
Natalija [7]

A photoelectric cell is an electronic device which is used to convert light energy into electric energy.The operation of this device is based on photoelectric effect.

Light of suitable frequency i.e greater or equal to threshold frequency will fall on the cathode maintained at negative potential.The electron emission will take place and these electrons are drifted towards the anode which is at positive potential.

Here,only those radiations will be capable of emitting electrons irrespective of surface barrier of metals whose energy is greater than the work function.

We know that the radiation having long wavelength has least energy as energy and wavelength are inversely proportional to each other.

Mathematically\ energy\ E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}

Here h is the Planck's constant,c is the velocity of light.

Here we have been given red light and blue light.

In the visible spectrum of radiation, the red light has longer wavelength than all other colors of light.Hence blue light has more energy as it's wavelength is less as compared to red light.

Hence, the blue light will activate the most and red the least.

What is the volume of an irregularly shaped object that has a mass 3.0 grams and a density of 6.0 g/mL
pogonyaev

Answer: The volume of an irregularly shaped object is 0.50 ml

Explanation:

To calculate the volume, we use the equation:

\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}

Density of object = 6.0g/ml

mass of object = 3.0 g

Volume of object = ?

Putting in the values we get:

6.0g/ml=\frac{3.0g}{\text{Volume of substance}}

{\text{Volume of substance}}=0.50ml

Thus the volume of an irregularly shaped object is 0.50 ml

A 75-hp (shaft output) motor that has an efficiency of 91.0 percent is worn out and is to be replaced by a high- efficiency moto
daser333 [38]

Convert the shaft ouput from HP to kW

Shaft output = 75HP = 55.93kW

 

1st: Finding for the power consumption based on 55.93kW output

Power consumption (Old) = 55.93kW / .910 = 61.46kW

Power consumption (New) = 55.93kW / .954 = 58.63kW

 

2nd: Total power used in kWh:

Power Used = Power consumption * load factor * Hours:

Power (Old) = 61.46kW * .75 * 4368 = 201343 kWh

Power (New) = 58.63kW * .75 * 4368 = 192072 kWh

Energy saved = 201343 kWh - 192072 kWh = 9,271 kWh

 

3rd: Calculating for the price:

Price = kW-Hr * $/kWh

Price (Old) = 201343kWh * $0.08/kWh = $16107.44

Price (New) = 192072 kWh * $0.08/kWh = $15365.76

Cost saved = $16107.44 - $15365.76 =  $741.68/yr

 

4th: Setting up the cost equation:

Cost over time, F(t) = Motor_Cost + (Price * Number of Years, t)

Cost (Old) = 5449 + 16107.44*t

Cost (New) = 5520 + 15365.76*t

Equate the two to find for t when they cost equally:

5449 + 16107.44*t = 5520 + 15365.76*t

16107.44*t = 15365.76*t +71

16107.44*t - 15365.76*t = 71

741.68*t = 71

t = 71 / 741.68 = .095 years = 35 days

So the payback period is after 35 days.

A ship maneuvers to within 2.50 x 103 m of anisland's 1.80 x 103 m high mountain peak and fires aprojectile at an enemy ship 6.1
const2013 [10]

Answer:

Distance between peak height (vertically) of projectile and mountain height = (2975.2 - 1800) = 1175.2 m

Distance between where the projectile lands and ship B = (3188.8 - 3110) = 8.8 m

Explanation:

Given the velocity and angle of shot of the projectile, one can calculate the range and maximum height attained by the projectile.

H = (v₀² Sin²θ)/2g

v₀ = initial velocity of projectile = 2.50 × 10² m/s = 250 m/s

θ = 75°, g = 9.8 m/s²

H = 250² (Sin² 75)/(2 × 9.8) = 2975.2 m

Range of projectile

R = v₀² (sin2θ)/g

R = 250² (sin2×75)/9.8

R = 250² (sin 150)/9.8 = 3188.8 m

Height of mountain = 1.80 × 10³ = 1800 m

Maximum height of projectile = 2975.2 m

Distance between peak height (vertically) of projectile and mountain height = 2975.2 - 1800 = 1175.2 m

Distance of ship B from ship A = 2.5 × 10³ + 6.1 × 10² = 2500 + 610 = 3110 m

Range of projectile = 3188.8 m

Distance between where the projectile lands and ship B = 3188.8 - 3110 = 8.8 m
