Potential energy U = 174J = m*g*Δh

m mass
g = 9.81 m/s²
Δh = 5.1 - 5.1cos32° = 0.77

Solve for m.

Dentists' chairs are examples of hydraulic-lift systems. If a chair weighs 1400 N and rests on a piston with a cross-sectional a
NeX [460]

Answer:

Force applied to smaller cross section is

= 82.63 N

Explanation:

As we know

F_2 A_1 = F_1 A_2

where F1, F2 signifies the weight of the two chair in a hydraulic-lift system

And A_1, A_2 signifies the area of the two respective chairs in a hydraulic-lift system

Given -

F2=1400 N

A1 =1220 Square centimeter

A_2 = 72 Square centimeter

Substituting the given values in above equation, we get -

1400 * 72 = F1 * 1220\\F2 = 82.63

Force applied to smaller cross section is

= 82.63 N

At 5000-kg freight car runs into 10000-kg freight car at rest. they couple upon collision and move with a speed of 2 m/s. what w
aliina [53]

Solution for the problem is:

Total momentum before collision is always equal to total momentum after collision. So note that:
Momentum of car A = 5000 x Xm/s 
Momentum of car A + B = 15,000 x 2m/s 

So combining the two, will give us the equation:
15,000/5,000 = 3 
3 x 2 =6m/s

How would the interference pattern change for this experiment if a. the grating was moved twice as far from the screen and b. th
Airida [17]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Solution:-

- Here we will assume that the grating has the line density ( N ) defined by the number of lines per mm.

- The angle that each fringe forms on the screen is defined by ( θ ).

- The order of bright/dark spot is defined by an integer ( n )

- The wavelength of the incident light is ( λ )

- Here we will use the relation given for diffraction grating by the Young's Experiment as follows:

                               n*lambda = \frac{sin(theta)}{N}

- The above given formulation is for constructive interference.

- We will inspect the effect of increasing the distance between the screen and the grating. Consider the length ( L ) from the center of the grating to the center of the screen. The distance ( yn ) will denote the distance between each fringe in vertical direction on the screen.

- For small angles ( θ ) we can make an approximation of sin ( θ ) ≈ tan ( θ ). Where,

                            sin ( θ ) ≈ tan ( θ ) = [ yn / L ]

- Substitute the above approximation in the given relation of diffraction gratings as follows:

                            y_n = n*lamda*L*N

- To double the distance between the screen and grating we will use the above relation with ( 2L ):

                            yn ∝ L

Result: The distance between each order of bright and dark fringe is doubled. The interference pattern would have twice the spread! This also means that less number of bright spots would be seen on the screen as the coverage area would require a larger screen to accommodate the entire interference pattern. The spread also reduces the intensity/contrast between the bright and dark fringes because the distance travelled by each ray of light has increased. The intensity is inversely proportional to the square of distance travelled.

- Similarly, the line density of the grating ( N ) was doubled. Then,

                            yn ∝ N

Result: The distance between each order of bright and dark fringe is doubled. The interference pattern would have twice the spread!This also means that less number of bright spots would be seen on the screen as the coverage area would require a larger screen to accommodate the entire interference pattern.

A green ball has a mass of 0.525 kg and a blue ball has a mass of 0.482 kg. A croquet player strikes the green ball and it gains
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

v' = 1.21 m/s

Explanation:

Mass of a green ball, m = 0.525 kg

Mass of a blue ball, m' = 0.482 kg

Initial velocity of green ball, u = 2.26 m/s

Initial velocity of blue ball, u' = 0 (at rest)

After the collision,

The final velocity of the green ball, v = 1.14 m/s

We need to find the final velocity of the blue ball after the collision if the collision is head on. Let v' is the final velcity of the blue ball. Using the conservation of momentum to find it :

mu+m'u'=mv+m'v'\\\\0.525 (2.26)+0=0.525 (1.14)+0.482v'\\\\0.588=0.482v'\\\\v'=\dfrac{0.588}{0.482}\\\\v'=1.21\ m/s

So, the final velocity of the blue ball is 1.21 m/s.

An electron moves through a uniform electric field vector E = (2.80î + 5.20ĵ) V/m and a uniform magnetic field vector B = 0.400k
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

1.758820×10^11(-2.5i-0.8j) m/s^2

Explanation:

From the question, the parameters given are; E=(2.80i+ 5.20j) v/m, a uniform magnetic field,B= 0.400K T, acceleration, a= ??? and velocity vector, v= 11.0i metre per seconds (m/s)...

We can solve this problem using the formula below;

Ma= q[E+V × B] ---------------(1).

Note: q is negative, m= mass of electron.

Making acceleration,a the subject of the formula and substituting the parameters into equation (1);

a= -e/m × (2.5i + 5.2j +11.0i × 0.400K)

a= -e/m × (2.5i+5.2j-4.4j)

a= e/m × (-2.5i - 0.8j)

e/m= 1.758820×10^11 c/kg

Therefore, slotting in the value of charge to mass(e/m) ratio;

a= 1.7588×10^11×(-2.5i-0.8j) m/s^2
