Sophia is planning on going down an 8-m water slide. Her weight is 50 N. She knows that she has gravitational potential energy (

GPE) at various points on the slide At each point, her GPE can be found by using an equation. GPE = weight * height above ground Graph her GPE versus height every 2 m as she goes down the slide. Use height in meters above ground on the y-axis. Use GPE in Joules on the x-axis.​

Answer:

Explanation:

graph would be a straight line from (0, 0) to (400, 8)

Plot points are

PE = mgh

50(0) = 0 J

50(2) = 100 J

50(4) = 200 J

50(6) = 300 J

50(8) = 400 J

Acceleration, in physics, is the rate of change of velocity of an object with respect to time. <span> Anytime an object's velocity is changing, the object is said to be </span><span>accelerating. It can be calculated as follows:

A solid uniform sphere of mass 1.85 kg and diameter 45.0 cm spins about an axle through its center. Starting with an angular vel
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

The net torque is 0.0372 N m.

Explanation:

A rotational body with constant angular acceleration satisfies the kinematic equation:

\omega^{2}=\omega_{0}^{2}+2\alpha\Delta\theta (1)

with ω the final angular velocity, ωo the initial angular velocity, α the constant angular acceleration and Δθ the angular displacement (the revolutions the sphere does). To find the angular acceleration we solve (1) for α:

\frac{\omega^{2}-\omega_{0}^{2}}{2\Delta\theta}=\alpha

Because the sphere stops the final angular velocity is zero, it's important all quantities in the SI so 2.40 rev/s = 15.1 rad/s and 18.2 rev = 114.3 rad, then:

\alpha=-\frac{-(15.1)^{2}}{2(114.3)}=1.00\frac{rad}{s^{2}}

The negative sign indicates the sphere is slowing down as we expected.

Now with the angular acceleration we can use Newton's second law:

\sum\overrightarrow{\tau}=I\overrightarrow{\alpha} (2)

with ∑τ the net torque and I the moment of inertia of the sphere, for a sphere that rotates about an axle through its center its moment of inertia is:

I = \frac{2MR^{2}}{5}

With M the mass of the sphere an R its radius, then:

I = \frac{2(1.85)(\frac{0.45}{2})^{2}}{5}=0.037 kg*m^2

Then (2) is:

\sum\overrightarrow{\tau}=0.037(-1.00)=0.037 Nm

The magnitude J(r) of the current density in a certain cylindrical wire is given as a function of radial distance from the cente
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

I=68.31\times 10^{-6}\ A

Explanation:

Given that

J(r) = Br

We know that area of small element

dA = 2 π dr

I = J A

dI = J dA

Now by putting the values

dI = B r . 2 π dr

dI= 2π Br² dr

Now by integrating above equation

\int_{0}^{I}dI= \int_{r_1}^{r_2}2\pi Br^2 dr

I={2\pi B}\times \dfrac{r_2^3-r_1^3}{3}

Given that

B= 2.35 x 10⁵ A/m³

r₁ = 2 mm

r₂ = 2+ 0.0115 mm

r₂ = 2.0115 mm

I={2\pi B}\times \dfrac{r_2^3-r_1^3}{3}

By putting the values

I={2\pi \times 2.35 \times 10^5 }\times \dfrac{(2.0115\times 10^{-3})^3-(2\times 10^{-3})^3}{3}\ A

I=68.31\times 10^{-6}\ A

A wave is propagating from left to right in a medium. The particles in the medium are also vibrating from left to right. What ki
Anna71 [15]
Based on the direction of propagation compared to direction of vibration, waves are classified into:
1- Transverse waves: The direction of propagation of the wave is perpendicular to the direction of vibration of the medium particles.
2- Longitudinal waves: The direction of propagation of the wave is the same as the direction of vibration of the medium particles.

For the question we have here, since the direction of the wave is the same as the direction of vibration of particles, therefore, this wave is a longitudinal wave

A 1.15-kg mass oscillates according to the equation x = 0.650 cos(8.40t) where x is in meters and t in seconds. Determine (a) th
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

(a) A = 0.650 m

(b) f = 1.3368 Hz

(c) E = 17.1416 J

(d)  K = 11.8835 J

     U = 5.2581 J

Explanation:

Given

m = 1.15 kg

x = 0.650 cos (8.40t)

(a) the amplitude,

A = 0.650 m

(b) the frequency,

if we know that

ω = 2πf = 8.40    ⇒   f = 8.40 / (2π)

⇒   f = 1.3368 Hz

(c) the total energy,

we use the formula

E = m*ω²*A² / 2

⇒  E = (1.15)(8.40)²(0.650)² / 2

⇒  E = 17.1416 J

(d) the kinetic energy and potential energy when x = 0.360 m.

We use the formulas

K = (1/2)*m*ω²*(A² - x²)       (the kinetic energy)

and

U = (1/2)*m*ω²*x²              (the potential energy)

then

K = (1/2)*(1.15)*(8.40)²*((0.650)² - (0.360)²)

⇒  K = 11.8835 J

U = (1/2)*(1.15)*(8.40)²*(0.360)²

⇒  U = 5.2581 J
