Since the law of gravitation is an inverse square law if you quadruple the radius the f will drop by a factor of 16 SO the object would weigh 200/16 = 12.5N

In other words, as the distance, or radius, quadruples the weight becomes 1/16 of the original weight. Just plug in 4 for r and when you square it you get 16. The numerator is 1 so that is how the weight becomes 1/16.

16) A wheel of moment of inertia of 5.00 kg-m2 starts from rest and accelerates under a constant torque of 3.00 N-m for 8.00 s.
KiRa [710]

Answer:

57.6Joules

Explanation:

Rotational kinetic energy of a body can be determined using the expression

Rotational kinetic energy = 1/2Iω²where;

I is the moment of inertia around axis of rotation. = 5kgm/s²

ω is the angular velocity = ?

Note that torque (T) = I¶ where;

¶ is the angular acceleration.

I is the moment of inertia

¶ = T/I

¶ = 3.0/5.0

¶ = 0.6rad/s²

Angular acceleration (¶) = ∆ω/∆t

∆ω = ¶∆t

ω = 0.6×8

ω = 4.8rad/s

Therefore, rotational kinetic energy = 1/2×5×4.8²

= 5×4.8×2.4

= 57.6Joules

A positive point charge Q1 = 2.5 x 10-5 C is fixed at the origin of coordinates, and a negative point charge Q2 = -5.0 x 10-6 C
mario62 [17]

Answer:

3.62 m  and - 1.4 m

Explanation:

Consider a location towards the positive side of x-axis beyond the location of charge Q₂

x = distance of the location from charge Q₂

d = distance between the two charges = 2 m

For the electric field to be zero at the location

E₁ = Electric field by charge Q₁ at the location = E₂ = Electric field by charge Q₂ at the location

\frac{kQ_{1}}{(2 + x)^{2}}= \frac{kQ_{2}}{x^{2}}

\frac{2.5\times 10^{-5}}{(2 + x)^{2}}= \frac{5 \times 10^{-6}}{x^{2}}

x = 1.62 m

So location is 2 + 1.62 = 3.62 m

Consider a location towards the negative side of x-axis beyond the location of charge Q₁

x = distance of the location from charge Q₁

d = distance between the two charges = 2 m

For the electric field to be zero at the location

E₁ = Electric field by charge Q₁ at the location = E₂ = Electric field by charge Q₂ at the location

\frac{kQ_{1}}{(x)^{2}}= \frac{kQ_{2}}{ (2 + x)^{2}}

\frac{2.5\times 10^{-5}}{(x)^{2}}= \frac{5 \times 10^{-6}}{(2+x)^{2}}

x = - 1.4 m

Wrapping paper is being unwrapped from a 5.0-cm radius tube, free to rotate on its axis. if it is pulled at the constant rate of
lisov135 [29]
So the equation for angular velocity is

Omega = 2(3.14)/T

Where T is the total period in which the cylinder completes one revolution.

In order to find T, the tangential velocity is

V = 2(3.14)r/T

When calculated, I got V = 3.14

When you enter that into the angular velocity equation, you should get 2m/s

Plug variables expressed in SI units in the kinematic equation given in article: a = -v0^2/(2sg). What value of g you get as exp
Elanso [62]

Answer:

1) acceleration is increased by a factor of four 4X

2) the acceleration increases a factor of 2X

3) the correct answer of 400g

Explanation:

This is a kinematics exercise, where you use the velocity equation to obtain the acceleration, with the final velocity equal to zero.

           v² = v₀² + 2 a x

           0 = v₀² + 2 a x

           a = - v₀² / 2 x

           

In the case of wanting to give the acceleration as a function of g, we can find the relationship between the two quantities

         a / g = - v₀² / (2 x g)

Let's answer the different questions about this equation

1. The initial velocity is doubled, how much the acceleration is worth

           

       a/g = - (2v₀) 2 / 2xg

       a = 4 (-v₀² / 2xg) g

acceleration is increased by a factor of four 4X

2. if the stopping distance is reduced by 2, that is, x = x₀ / 2

we substitute

        a/g = (- v₀² / 2g) 2/x

         

        a =2  (-v₀² / 2x₀g)  g

       

therefore the acceleration increases a factor of 2X

3. the initial velocity of the hockey player is v₀ = 20 m / s and the stopping distance is

x = 5cm = 0.05m

we calculate the acceleration

        a / g = - 20² / (2 0.05)

        a / g = - 4000 / g

        a / g = - 4000 / 9.8 = 408

        a = 408 g

the correct answer of 400g, the value matches exactly if g = 10 m / s2 is taken

How much heat Q1 is transferred by 25.0 g of water onto the skin? To compare this to the result in the previous part, continue t
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

The heat transferred  from water to skin  is 6913.5 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of water = 25.0 g

Suppose that water and steam, initially at 100°C, are cooled down to skin temperature, 34°C, when they come in contact with your skin. Assume that the steam condenses extremely fast. We will further assume a constant specific heat capacity c=4190 J/(kg°K) for both liquid water and steam.

We need to calculate the heat transferred  from water to skin

Using formula for stream

Q=mc\Delta T

Put the value into the formula

Q=25\times10^{-3}\times4190\times(373-307)

Q=6913.5\ J

Hence, The heat transferred  from water to skin  is 6913.5 J.
