A student builds the apparatus shown above. A light string is attached to an object of unknown mass and passed through a tube su

ch that the other end of the string is attached to a second object of mass M M . By holding on to the tube, the student swings the object of unknown mass in a horizontal circle of radius r r while the object of mass M M hanging from the string remains at a constant height. In each trial, the radius r r of the circular path is changed and the tangential speed ν ν of the object of unknown mass is calculated. How can the student determine the value of the unknown mass by using the radius of its circular path and its speed?

A person weighing 0.70 kn rides in an elevator that has an upward acceleration of 1.5 m/s2. what is the magnitude of the normal
creativ13 [48]
First of all, we can find the mass of the person, since we know his weight W:
W=mg=0.70 kN=700 N
And so
m= \frac{W}{g}= \frac{700 N}{9.81 m/s^2}=71.4 kg

We know for Newton's second law that the resultant of the forces acting on the person must be equal to the product between the mass and the acceleration a of the person itself:
\sum F =  ma
There are only two forces acting on the person: his weight W (downward) and the vincular reaction Rv of the floor against the body (upward). So we can rewrite the previous equation as
R_v -W = ma
We know the acceleration of the system, a=1.5 m/s^2 (upward, so with same sign of Rv), so we can solve to find the value of Rv, the normal force exerted by the elevator's floor on the person:
R_v = ma+W=(71.4 kg)(1.5 m/s^2)+700 N =807N

What is the explanation for how a modern transmission electron microscope (TEM) can achieve a resolution of about 0.2 nanometers
IgorC [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

A simple light microscope uses light for imaging of objects where as a transmission electron microscope uses a monochromatic beam of electrons.

This beam is passed by a magnetic field which is very strong and thus act as a lens.

Its resolution of very high which is about 0.2 nanometers because of the separation between two atoms.

Because of this reason its resolution is about 1000 times greater than light microscope.

The magnetic field around a current-carrying wire is ________proportional to the current and _________proportional to the distan
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:Thus, The magnetic field around a current-carrying wire is <u><em>directly</em></u>  proportional to the current and <u><em>inversely</em></u>  proportional to the distance from the wire.  If the current triples while the distance doubles, the strength of the magnetic field increases by <u><em>one and half (1.5)</em></u> times.

Explanation:

Magnetic field around a long current carrying wire is given by

B=\frac{\mu _o I}{2\pi r}

where B= magnetic field

           \mu _o= permeability of free space

           I= current in the long wire and

           r= distance from the current carrying wire

Thus, The magnetic field around a current-carrying wire is <u><em>directly</em></u>  proportional to the current and <u><em>inversely</em></u>  proportional to the distance from the wire.  

Now if I'=3I and r'=2r then magnetic field B' is given by

B'=\frac{\mu _oI'}{2\pi r'}=\frac{\mu _o3I}{2\pi 2r}=1.5B

Thus If the current triples while the distance doubles, the strength of the magnetic field increases by <u><em>one and half (1.5)</em></u> times.

Determine the maximum weight of the bucket that the wire system can support so that no single wire develops a tension exceeding
stellarik [79]
Let there be N number of wires.

Maximum tension a wire can withstand = 100 lb

so, Total tension N wires can withstand =  100 N

now, total tension in N wires = Maximum weight of bucket

100 N  = W

so, W = 100N

W is the weight of bucket and 100N is its maximum value.
