If the loss of 3500 kcal is equal to a loss of 1.0 lb, how many days will it take charles to lose 5.0 lb

We are missing an important piece of information needed to answer this question: the number of kcal Charles losses per day. However, we can come up with a general equation in which kcal/day is the only independent variable.

We know that it takes 3500 kcal to lose one pound. To lose 5 pounds, Charles needs to lose 5 x 3500 kcal = 17,500 kcal. 

To find how many days it takes Charles to lose 17,500 kcal (5 pounds), we must divide that amount by the number of kcal Charles loses per day. 
Here is the equation to calculate that number

Number of days= 17500 / (kcal per day)

If given calories, remember that 1000 calories = 1 kcal, and .001 kcal = 1 cal

A circular coil 17.0 cm in diameter and containing nine loops lies flat on the ground. The Earth's magnetic field at this locati
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

The torque in the coil is  4.9 × 10⁻⁵ N.m  

Explanation:

T = NIABsinθ

Where;

T is the  torque on the coil

N is the number of loops = 9

I is the current = 7.8 A

A is the area of the circular coil = ?

B is the Earth's magnetic field = 5.5 × 10⁻⁵ T

θ is the angle of inclination = 90 - 56 = 34°

Area of the circular coil is calculated as follows;

A = \frac{\pi d^2}{4} \\\\A = \frac{\pi 0.17^2}{4} =0.0227 m^2

T = 9 × 7.8 × 0.0227 × 5.5×10⁻⁵ × sin34°

T = 4.9 × 10⁻⁵ N.m

Therefore, the torque in the coil is  4.9 × 10⁻⁵ N.m

The length of a wire 2.00 m is measured as 2.02m. What is the percentage error in the measurement?
n200080 [17]

Answer:

1%

Explanation:

Percent error can be found by dividing the absolute error (difference between measure and actual value) by the actual value, then multiplying by 100.

Percent Error=\frac{V_{measured}- V_{true} } {V_{true}} *100

The measured value is 2.02 meters and the actual value is 2.00 meters.

V_{measured}=2.02\\\\V_{true}=2.00

Percent Error=\frac{2.02-2.00}{2.00} *100

First, evaluate the fraction. Subtract 2.00 from 2.02

Percent Error=\frac{0.02}{2.00}*100

Next, divide 0.02 by 2.00

PercentError=0.01 *100

Finally, multiply 0.01 and 100.

Percent  Error=1\\Percent  Error= 1 \%

The percent error is 1%.

Cylinder A is moving downward with a velocity of 3 m/s when the brake is suddenly applied to the drum. Knowing that the cylinder
Xelga [282]

Answer:

Incomplete question

Check attachment for the given diagram

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial Velocity of drum

u=3m/s

Distance travelled before coming to rest is 6m

Since it comes to rest, then, the final velocity is 0m/s

v=3m/s

Using equation of motion to calculate the linear acceleration or tangential acceleration

v²=u²+2as

0²=3²+2×a×6

0=9+12a

12a=-9

Then, a=-9/12

a=-0.75m/s²

The negative sign shows that the cylinder is decelerating.

Then, a=0.75m/s²

So, using the relationship between linear acceleration and angular acceleration.

a=αr

Where

a is linear acceleration

α is angular acceleration

And r is radius

α=a/r

From the diagram r=250mm=0.25m

Then,

α=0.75/0.25

α =3rad/sec²

The angular acceleration is =3rad/s²

b. Time take to come to rest

Using equation of motion

v=u+at

0=3-0.75t

0.75t=3

Then, t=3/0.75

t=4 secs

The time take to come to rest is 4s

A proton is released from rest at the positive plate of a parallel-plate capacitor. It crosses the capacitor and reaches the neg
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

=2,012,319.36 \ m/s

Explanation:

-The only relevant force is the electrostatic force

-The formula for the electrostatic force is:

F = Eq

E is the electric field and q is the magnitude of the charge.

#Since the electric field is the same in both cases, and the charge of the protons and electrons have the same magnitude, you can state that the magnitude of the electric forces acting in both proton and electron are the same.

F_e = F_p\\\\F_e= Force \ on \ electron\\F_p = Force \ on \ proton

-Applying Newton's 2nd Law:

F=ma

F_e=M_ea_e

F_p=M_pa_p

#equate the two forces:

F_e = F_p\\\\M_ea_e=M_pa_p\\\\a_e=\frac{M_pa_p}{M_e}

#The equations for velocity in uniform acceleration:

V_f^2=V_o^2+2ad\\\\V_o^2=0\\\\\therefore V_f^2=2ad

#For the proton:

V_f^2=2a_pd\\\\a_p=\frac{V_f^2}{2d}\\\\a_p=\frac{47000m/s)^2}{2d}

#For the electron:

V_f^2=2{a_e}^2\times 2d\\\\A_e=M_p\times A_p/M_e\\\\V_f^2=M_p\times (47000m/s)^2/2d\times2d/M_e\\\\V_f^2=M_p\times (47000m/s)^2/M_e\\\\V_f=47000m/s\times\sqrt{\frac{M_p}{M_e}}

The mass values of the proton and electron are:

M_p=1.67\times 10^{-27} kg\\\\M_e=9.11\times10^{-31}kg

The speed of the ion is therefore calculated as:

V_f=47000m/s\times\sqrt{\frac{M_p}{M_e}}\\\\=47000m/s\times\sqrt{\frac{1.67\times10^{-27}}{9.11\times10^{-31}}\\\\=2,012,319.36 \ m/s

Hence, the ion's speed at the negative plate is =2,012,319.36 \ m/s
