Answer: C. The case on the inclined surface had the least decrease intotal mechanical energy.

Explanation:

First and foremost, it should be noted that the mechanical energy is the addition of the potential and the kinetic energy.

From the information given, it should be known that when the block is projected with the same speed v up an incline where is slides to a stop due to friction, the box will lose its kinetic energy but there'll be na increase in the potential energy as a result of the veritcal height. This then brings about an increase in the mechanical energy.

Therefore, the total mechanical energy of the block will decrease the least when the case on the inclined surface had the least decrease intotal mechanical energy.

Two billiard balls of equal mass are traveling straight toward each other with the same speed. They meet head-on in an elastic c
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

0 kg m/s before and after collision

Explanation:

Let m, v be the mass and speed of the 2 balls, respectively, before the collision. Since they have the same mass and same speed but in opposite direction, the total momentum of the system would be:

P = mv - mv = 0 kg m/s

As the collision is elastic. The total momentum after the collision is the same as the total momentum before the collision, which is 0.

Using the formula for kinetic energy of a moving particle k=12mv2, find the kinetic energy ka of particle a and the kinetic ener
Flauer [41]
<span>Answer: KE = (11/2)mω²r², particle B must have mass of 2m, while A has mass m. Then the moment of inertia of the system is I = Σ md² = m*(3r)² + 2m*r² = 11mr² and then KE = ½Iω² = ½ * 11mr² * ω² = 11mr²ω² / 2 So I'll proceed under that assumption. For particle A, translational KEa = ½mv² but v = ω*d = ω*3r, so KEa = ½m(3ωr)² = (9/2)mω²r² For particld B, translational KEb = ½(2m)v² but v = ω*r, so KEb = ½(2m)ω²r² so total translational KE = (9/2 + 2/2)mω²r² = 11mω²r² / 2 which is equal to our rotational KE.</span>

A particle with a charge of -1.24 x 10"° C is moving with instantaneous velocity (4.19 X 104 m/s)î + (-3.85 X 104 m/s)j. What is
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

(a) F= 6.68*10¹¹⁴ N (-k)

(b) F =( 6.68*10¹¹⁴ i  + 7.27*10¹¹⁴ j  ) N

Explanation

To find the magnetic force in terms of a fixed amount of charge q that moves at a constant speed v in a uniform magnetic field B we apply the following formula:

F=q* v X B Formula (1 )

q: charge (C)

v: velocity (m/s)

B: magnetic field (T)

vXB : cross product between the velocity vector and the magnetic field vector

Data

q= -1.24 * 10¹¹⁰ C

v= (4.19 * 10⁴ m/s)î + (-3.85 * 10⁴m/s)j

B  =(1.40 T)i  

B  =(1.40 T)k

Problem development

a) vXB = (4.19 * 10⁴ m/s)î + (-3.85* 10⁴m/s)j X (1.40 T)i =

            = - (-3.85*1.4) k = 5.39* 10⁴ m/s*T (k)

1T= 1 N/ C*m/s

We apply the formula (1)

  F= 1.24 * 10¹¹⁰ C*  5.39* 10⁴ m/s* N/ C*m/s (-k)

   F= 6.68*10¹¹⁴ N (-k)

a)  vXB = (4.19 * 10⁴ m/s)î + (-3.85* 10⁴m/s)j X (1.40 T)k =

             =( - 5.39* 10⁴i - 5.87* 10⁴j)m/s*T

1T= 1 N/ C*m/s

We apply the formula (1)

F= 1.24 * 10¹¹⁰ C*  (  5.39* 10⁴i + 5.87* 10⁴j) m/s* N/ C*m/s

F =( 6.68*10¹¹⁴  i  + 7.27*10¹¹⁴  j  ) N

A uniform 1.4-kg rod that is 0.75 m long is suspended at rest from the ceiling by two springs, one at each end of the rod. Both
svetlana [45]

Answer:

7 deg

Explanation:

m = mass of the rod = 1.4 kg

W = weight of the rod = mg = (1.4) (9.8) = 13.72 N

k_{L} = spring constant for left spring = 59 Nm^{-1}

k_{R} = spring constant for right spring = 33 Nm^{-1}

x_{L} = stretch in the left spring

x_{R} = stretch in the right spring

L = length of the rod = 0.75 m

\theta = Angle the rod makes with the horizontal

Using equilibrium of force in vertical direction for left spring

k_{L} x_{L} = (0.5) W\\(59) x_{L} = (0.5) (13.72)\\x_{L} = 0.116 m

Using equilibrium of force in vertical direction for right spring

k_{R} x_{R} = (0.5) W\\(33) x_{R} = (0.5) (13.72)\\x_{R} = 0.208 m

Angle made with the horizontal is given as

\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{(x_{R} - x_{L})}{L} )\\\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{(0.208 - 0.116)}{0.75} )\\\theta = 7 deg

To support a tree damaged in a storm, a 12-foot wire is secured from the ground to the tree at a point 10 feet off the ground. T
podryga [215]

Answer:

The wire meet the ground at an angle of 56.4 degrees

Explanation:

It is given that,

To support a tree damaged in a storm, a 12-foot wire is secured from the ground to the tree at a point 10 feet off the ground.

The hypotenuse is, H = 12 foot

The perpendicular distance is, P = 10 feet

The angle between the tree and the ground is 90 degrees

Using Pythagoras theorem as :

sin\theta=\dfrac{P}{H}

sin\theta=\dfrac{10}{12}

\theta=56.4^{\circ}

So, the wire meet the ground at an angle of 56.4 degrees. Hence, the correct option is (d).
