Answer:

Option B.

Explanation:

Assuming the stick is in vertical position, its shadow depends on two factors: its length and the angle between the sun rays and the stick. When the angle is bigger, the lenght of the shadow increases, and vice versa. So, when the sun rays are parallel to the stick, the shadow may be small. Since they are nearly perpendicular to the Earth's surface at 12 o'clock, the shadow of the stick at that time should be minimal. It means that the measured shadow of 75 cm at 12:30 p.m. is almost impossible (Option B).

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

B_o = 1.013μT

Explanation:

To find B_o you take into account the formula for the emf:

\epsilon=-\frac{d\Phi_b}{dt}=-\frac{dBAcos\theta}{dt}=-Acos\theta\frac{dB}{dt}

where you used that A (area of the loop) is constant, an also the angle between the direction of B and the normal to A.

By applying the derivative you obtain:

\epsilon=-Acos\theta (2\pi f) B_ocos(2\pi f t+ \alpha)

when the emf is maximum the angle between B and the normal to A is zero, that is, cosθ = 1 or -1. Furthermore the cos function is 1 or -1. Hence:

\epsilon=2\pi fAB_o=2\pi (100*10^3Hz)(\pi (0.1m)^2)B_o=19739.20Hzm^2B_o\\\\B_o=\frac{20*10^{-3}V}{19739.20Hzm^2}=1.013*10^{-6}T=1.013\mu T

hence, B_o = 1.013μT

Some plants disperse their seeds when the fruit splits and contracts, propelling the seeds through the air. The trajectory of th
Anton [14]

Answer:

Option B, 93 cm

Explanation:

An diagram of the seed's motion is attached to this solution.

This is very close to a projectile motion question. And the quantity to be calculated, how far along the grant a seed released would travel is called the Range.

And this would be obtained from the equations of motion,

First of, the height of the plant is related to some quantities of the motion with this relation.

H = u(y) t + 0.5g(t^2)

U(y) = initial vertical component of velocity = 0 m/s, H = height at which motion began, = 20cm = 0.2 m

That means t = √(2H/g)

The horizontal distance covered, R,

R = u(x) t + 0.5g(t^2) = u(x) t (the second part of the equation goes to zero as the vertical component of the acceleration of this motion is 0)

(substituting the t = √(2H/g) derived from above

R = u(x) √(2H/g)

Where u(x) = the initial horizontal component of the bomb's velocity = maximum initial speed, that is, 4.6 m/s, H = vertical height at which the seed was released = 20 cm = 0.2 m, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s2

R = 4.6 √(2×0.2/9.8) = 0.929 m = 0.93 m = 93 cm. Option B.

A coin with a diameter 3.00 cm rolls up a 30.0 inclined plane. The coin starts out with an initial angular speed of 60.0 rad/s
sweet [91]

This question is in complete.The question is

A coin with a diameter 3.00 cm rolls up a 30.0° inclined plane. The coin starts out with an initial angular speed of 60.0 rad/s and rolls in a straight line without slipping. If the moment of inertia of the coin is(1/2) MR² , how far will the coin roll up the inclined plane (length along the ramp)? Hint: Conservation of mechanical energy.

Answer:

distance=0.124 m

Explanation:

mgh=mglSin\alpha =(1/2)Iw_{i}^{2}+(1/2)mv^{2}\\   v=wR\\Solve for L\\L=((1/2)(1/2)0.015^{2}*60^{2}+(1/2)(60*0.015^{2} ))/9.8Sin30\\   L=0.124m
