Two objects are dropped from rest from the same height. Object A falls through a distance Da and during a time t, and object B f
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Da=(1/4)Db

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

When s = Da, t = t

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow Da=0\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times a\times t^2\\\Rightarrow Da=\frac{1}{2}at^2

When s = Db, t = 2t

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow Da=0\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times a\times (2t)^2\\\Rightarrow Db=\frac{1}{2}a4t^2

Dividing the two equations

\frac{Da}{Db}=\frac{\frac{1}{2}at^2}{\frac{1}{2}a4t^2}=\frac{1}{4}\\\Rightarrow \frac{Da}{Db}=\frac{1}{4}\\\Rightarrow Da=\frac{1}{4}Db

Hence, Da=(1/4)Db

block of mass 0.5kg on a horizontal surface is attached to a horizontal spring of negligible mass and spring constant 50N/m . Th
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

The mass of the block is 0.5kg

m = 0.5kg.

The spring constant is 50N/m

k =50N/m.

When the spring is stretch to 0.3m

e=0.3m

The spring oscillates from -0.3 to 0.3m

Therefore, amplitude is A=0.3m

Magnitude of acceleration and the direction of the force

The angular frequency (ω) is given as

ω = √(k/m)

ω = √(50/0.5)

ω = √100

ω = 10rad/s

The acceleration of a SHM is given as

a = -ω²A

a = -10²×0.3

a = -30m/s²

Since we need the magnitude of the acceleration,

Then, a = 30m/s²

To know the direction of net force let apply newtons second law

ΣFnet = ma

Fnet = 0.5 × -30

Fnet = -15N

Fnet = -15•i N

The net force is directed to the negative direction of the x -axis

The image on the left shows the charges on a balloon after it’s been rubbed with a wool cloth. The image on the right is a piece
taurus [48]

When wool is rubbed with a balloon, the wool is left with a positive charge as electrons have travelled from the wool to the balloon which means the balloon now has a negative charge.

Now that the balloon has a negative charge, you need to know:
The tissue paper originally contains electrons and protons
The fact that the balloon has a negative charge, it will ATTRACT protons because protons are POSITIVE and electrons are NEGATIVE.
So once they are attracted, they will move closer to one another.

The Bernoulli equation is valid for steady, inviscid, incompressible flows with a constant acceleration of gravity. Consider flo
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

p+\frac{1}{2}ρV^{2}+ρg_{0}z-\frac{1}{2}ρcz^{2}=constant

Explanation:

first write the newtons second law:

F_{s}=δma_{s}

Applying bernoulli,s equation as follows:

∑δp+\frac{1}{2} ρδV^{2} +δγz=0\\

Where, δp is the pressure change across the streamline and V is the fluid particle velocity

substitute ρg for {tex]γ[/tex] and g_{0}-cz for g

dp+d(\frac{1}{2}V^{2}+ρ(g_{0}-cz)dz=0

integrating the above equation using limits 1 and 2.

\int\limits^2_1  \, dp +\int\limits^2_1 {(\frac{1}{2}ρV^{2} )} \, +ρ \int\limits^2_1 {(g_{0}-cz )} \,dz=0\\p_{1}^{2}+\frac{1}{2}ρ(V^{2})_{1}^{2}+ρg_{0}z_{1}^{2}-ρc(\frac{z^{2}}{2})_{1}^{2}=0\\p_{2}-p_{1}+\frac{1}{2}ρ(V^{2}_{2}-V^{2}_{1})+ρg_{0}(z_{2}-z_{1})-\frac{1}{2}ρc(z^{2}_{2}-z^{2}_{1})=0\\p+\frac{1}{2}ρV^{2}+ρg_{0}z-\frac{1}{2}ρcz^{2}=constant

there the bernoulli equation for this flow is p+\frac{1}{2}ρV^{2}+ρg_{0}z-\frac{1}{2}ρcz^{2}=constant

note: ρ=density(ρ) in some parts and change(δ) in other parts of this equation. it just doesn't show up as that in formular

A vessel, divided into two parts by a partition, contains 4 mol of nitrogen gas at 75°C and 30 bar on one side and 2.5 mol of ar
Elena L [17]

Answer:

assume nitrogen is an ideal gas with cv=5R/2

assume argon is an ideal gas with cv=3R/2

n1=4moles

n2=2.5 moles

t1=75°C   <em>in kelvin</em> t1=75+273

t1=348K

T2=130°C  <em>in kelvin</em> t2=130+273

t2=403K

u=пCVΔT

U(N₂)+U(Argon)=0

<em>putting values:</em>

=>4x(5R/2)x(Tfinal-348)=2.5x(3R/2)x(T final-403)

<em>by simplifying:</em>

Tfinal=363K
