Answer:As the air bubbles rise to the surface, the pressure on them decreases. This decrease in pressure allows the air to expand and each bubble increases in size. Boyle’s law explains why this occurs.

In a supermarket, you place a 22.3-N (around 5 lb) bag of oranges on a scale, and the scale starts to oscillate at 2.7 Hz. What
allsm [11]

Answer:

Force constant, k = 653.3 N/m

Explanation:

It is given that,

Weight of the bag of oranges on a scale, W = 22.3 N

Let m is the mass of the bag of oranges,

m=\dfrac{W}{g}

m=\dfrac{22.3}{9.8}

m = 2.27 kg

Frequency of the oscillation of the scale, f = 2.7 Hz

We need to find the force constant (spring constant) of the spring of the scale. We know that the formula of the frequency of oscillation of the spring is given by :

f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}

k=4\pi^2 f^2m

k=4\pi^2 \times (2.7)^2\times 2.27

k = 653.3 N/m

So, the force constant of the spring of the scale is 653.3 N/m. Hence, this is the required solution.

A thin, uniform rod is hinged at its midpoint. To begin with, one-half of the rod is bent upward and is perpendicular to the oth
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

\omega_1 = 6.06 rad/s

Explanation:

Initially rod is bent into L shaped at mid point

So we will have rotational inertia of the rod given as

I = \frac{mL^2}{3} + (\frac{mL^2}{12} + m(L^2 + \frac{L^2}{4}))

I = \frac{5mL^2}{3}

Now when rod becomes straight during the rotation

then we will have

I_2= \frac{(2m)(2L)^2}{3} = \frac{8mL^2}{3}

now from angular momentum conservation we have

I \omega_o = I_1 \omega_1

(\frac{5mL^2}{3}) (9.7) = \frac{8mL^2}{3}\omega_1

\omega_1 = 6.06 rad/s

A stone is dropped from rest from the top of a cliff into a pond below. If its initial height is 10 m, what is its speed when it
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

14 m/s

Explanation:

The problem can be solved by using the law of conservation of energy. In fact:

- The mechanical energy of the stone at the top of the cliff is just gravitational potential energy (because the stone is at rest, so its kinetic energy is zero), and it is given by

E=U=mgh (1)

where m is the mass of the stone, g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity, and h=10 m is the height of the cliff.

- The mechanical energy of the stone when it hits the water is just kinetic energy (because the height of the stone has become zero, so the gravitational potential energy is zero), so it is

E=K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2 (2)

where v is the speed of the stone when it hits the water.

Since the mechanical energy is conserved, we can equalize (1) and (2), and solving for v we find:

mgh=\frac{1}{2}mv^2\\v=\sqrt{2gh}=\sqrt{2(9.8 m/s^2)(10 m)}=14 m/s
