<span><span>1.       </span>If the ramp has a length of 10 and has a mechanical advantage (MA) of 5. Then we need to find the height of the ramp.
Formula:
MA = L / H
Since we already have the mechanical advantage and length, this time we need to find the height .
MA 5 = 10 / h
h = 10 / 5
h = 2 meters

Therefore, the ramp has a length of 10 meters, a height of 2 meters with a mechanical advantage of 5.</span>

A 150 g particle at x = 0 is moving at 8.00 m/s in the +x-direction. As it moves, it experiences a force given by Fx=(0.850N)sin
krok68 [10]

Answer:

9.98 m/s

Explanation:

The force acting on the particle is defined by the equation:

F=(0.850) sin (\frac{x}{2.00}) [N]

where x is the position in metres.

The acceleration can be found by using Newton's second law:

a=\frac{F}{m}

where

m = 150 g = 0.150 kg is the mass of the particle. Substituting into the equation,

a=\frac{0.850}{0.150}sin (\frac{x}{2.00})=5.67 sin(\frac{x}{2.00}) [m/s^2]

When x = 3.14 m, the acceleration is:

a=5.67 sin(\frac{3.14}{2.00})=5.67 m/s^2

Now we can find the final speed of the particle by using the suvat equation:

v^2-u^2=2ax

where

u = 8.00 m/s is the initial velocity

v is the final velocity

a=5.67 m/s^2

x = 3.14 m is the displacement

Solving for v,

v=\sqrt{u^2+2ax}=\sqrt{8.00^2+2(5.67)(3.14)}=9.98 m/s

And the speed is just the magnitude of the velocity, so 9.98 m/s.

Charge: A piece of plastic has a net charge of +2.00 μC. How many more protons than electrons does this piece of plastic have? (
snow_lady [41]

Answer

given,

net charge = +2.00 μC

we know,

1 coulomb charge =  6.28 x 10¹⁸electrons

1 micro coulomb  charge =  6.28 x 10¹⁸ x 10⁻⁶ electron

                                         = 6.28 x 10¹² electrons

2.00 μC = 2 x 6.28 x 10¹² electrons

              = 1.256 x 10¹³ electrons

since net charge is positive.

The number of protons should be 1.256 x 10¹³ more than electrons.

hence, +2.00 μC have 1.256 x 10¹³ more protons than electrons.

A coat rack weighs 65.0 lbs when it is filled with winter coats and 40.0 lbs when it is empty. The base of the coat rack has an
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

0.056 psi more pressure is exerted by filled coat rack than an empty coat rack.

Explanation:

First we find the pressure exerted by the rack without coat. So, for that purpose, we use formula:

P₁ = F/A

where,

P₁ = Pressure exerted by empty rack = ?

F = Force exerted by empty rack = Weight of Empty Rack = 40 lb

A = Base Area = 452.4 in²

Therefore,

P₁ = 40 lb/452.4 in²

P₁ = 0.088 psi

Now, we calculate the pressure exerted by the rack along with the coat.

P₂ = F/A

where,

P₂ = Pressure exerted by rack filled with coats= ?

F = Force exerted by filled rack = Weight of Filled Rack = 65 lb

A = Base Area = 452.4 in²

Therefore,

P₂ = 65 lb/452.4 in²

P₂ = 0.144 psi

Now, the difference between both pressures is:

ΔP = P₂ - P₁

ΔP = 0.144 psi - 0.088 psi

<u>ΔP = 0.056 psi</u>

Nuclear waste disposal is one of the largest issues with nuclear power. Cesium-137 is one of the high level waste products in an
vodomira [7]

Answer:

A sample of 5.2 mg  decays to .65 mg or to 1/8 of its original amount.

1/8 = 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 or 3 half-lives.

3 * 30.07 = 90 yrs for 5.2 mg to decay to .65 mg

You can get these other numbers similarly:

5.2 / .0102 = 510  requires about 9  half-lives which is 30 * 9 = 270 yrs
