Answer:

The greatest horizontal force that can be exerted without moving the table is 168.56N.

Explanation:

The maximum friction force is determined from the coefficient of static friction as follows:

F_{fr}=\mu\cdot F_{norm} = 0.43\cdot F_{norm}

where the the normal force is exerted by the ground as a reaction to the weight of the table, and has same magnitude as but opposite direction to the gravitational force on the table:

F_{fr} = 0.43\cdot 40kg\cdot 9.8 \frac{m}{s^2} = 168.56 N

This is the <em>maximum</em> static force, so the friction force will be matching and opposing any horizontal force up to 168.56N.

The force equals the coefficient of static friction times the weight. Use gravity g=9.8 m/s^2
0.43*40*9.8=16.856 N

A high school physics instructor catches one of his students chewing gum in class. He decides to discipline the student by askin
KengaRu [80]

a) 219.8 rad/s

b) 20.0 rad/s^2

c) 2.9 m/s^2

d) 7005 m/s^2

e) Towards the axis of rotation

f) 0 m/s^2

g) 31.9 m/s

Explanation:

a)

The angular velocity of an object in rotation is the rate of change of its angular position, so

\omega=\frac{\theta}{t}

where

\theta is the angular displacement

t is the time elapsed

In this problem, we are told that the maximum angular velocity is

\omega_{max}=35 rev/s

The angle covered during 1 revolution is

\theta=2\pi rad

Therefore, the maximum angular velocity is:

\omega_{max}=35 \cdot 2\pi = 219.8 rad/s

b)

The angular acceleration of an object in rotation is the rate of change of the angular velocity:

\alpha = \frac{\Delta \omega}{t}

where

\Delta \omega is the change in angular velocity

t is the time elapsed

Here we have:

\omega_0 = 0 is the initial angular velocity

\omega_{max}=219.8 rad/s is the final angular velocity

t = 11 s is the time elapsed

Therefore, the angular acceleration is:

\alpha = \frac{219.8-0}{11}=20.0 rad/s^2

c)

For an object in rotation, the acceleration has two components:

- A radial acceleration, called centripetal acceleration, towards the centre of the circle

- A tangential acceleration, tangential to the circle

The tangential acceleration is given by

a_t = \alpha r

where

\alpha is the angular acceleration

r is the radius of the circle

Here we have

\alpha =20.0 rad/s^2

d = 29 cm is the diameter, so the radius is

r = d/2 = 14.5 cm = 0.145 m

So the tangential acceleration is

a_t=(20.0)(0.145)=2.9 m/s^2

d)

The magnitude of the radial (centripetal) acceleration is given by

a_c = \omega^2 r

where

\omega is the angular velocity

r is the radius of the circle

Here we have:

\omega_{max}=219.8 rad/s is the angular velocity when the fan is at full speed

r = 0.145 m is the distance of the gum from the centre of the circle

Therefore, the radial acceleration is

a_c=(219.8)^2(0.145)=7005 m/s^2

e)

The direction of the centripetal acceleration in a rotational motion is always towards the centre of the axis of rotation.

Therefore also in this case, the direction of the centripetal acceleration is towards the axis of rotation of the fan.

f)

The magnitude of the tangential acceleration of the fan at any moment is given by

The tangential acceleration is given by

a_t = \alpha r

where

\alpha is the angular acceleration

r is the radius of the circle

When the fan is rotating at full speed, we have:

\alpha=0, since the fan is no longer accelerating, because the angular velocity is no longer changing

r = 0.145 m

Therefore, the tangential acceleration when the fan is at full speed is

a_t=(0)(0.145)=0 m/s^2

g)

The linear speed of an object in rotational motion is related to the angular velocity by the formula:

v=\omega r

where

v is the linear speed

\omega is the angular velocity

r is the radius

When the fan is rotating at maximum angular velocity, we have:

\omega=219.8 rad/s

r = 0.145 m

Therefore, the linear speed of the gum as it is un-stucked from the fan will be:

v=(219.8)(0.145)=31.9 m/s

A man is dragging a trunk up the loading ramp of a mover’s truck. The ramp has a slope angle of 20.0°, and the man pulls upward
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

(a)  104 N

(b) 52 N

Explanation:

Given Data

Angle of inclination of the ramp: 20°

F makes an angle of 30° with the ramp

The component of F parallel to the ramp is Fx = 90 N.  

The component of F perpendicular to the ramp is Fy.

(a)  

Let the +x-direction be up the incline and the +y-direction by the perpendicular to the surface of the incline.  

Resolve F into its x-component from Pythagorean theorem:  

Fx=Fcos30°

Solve for F:  

F= Fx/cos30°  

Substitute for Fx from given data:  

Fx=90 N/cos30°

   =104 N

(b) Resolve r into its y-component from Pythagorean theorem:

     Fy = Fsin 30°

   Substitute for F from part (a):

     Fy = (104 N) (sin 30°)  

          = 52 N

An electron and a proton are held on an x axis, with the electron at x = + 1.000 m and the proton at x = - 1.000 m. Part A How m
r-ruslan [8.4K]

PART A)

Electrostatic potential at the position of origin is given by

V = \frac{kq_1}{r_1} + \frac{kq_2}{r_2}

here we have

q_1 = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} C

q_2 = -1.6 \times 10^{-19} C

r_1 = r_2 = 1 m

now we have

V = \frac{Ke}{r} - \frac{Ke}{r}

V = 0

Now work done to move another charge from infinite to origin is given by

W = q(V_f - V_i)

here we will have

W = e(0 - 0) = 0

so there is no work required to move an electron from infinite to origin

PART B)

Initial potential energy of electron

U = \frac{Kq_1e}{r_1} + \frac{kq_2e}{r_2}

U = \frac{9\times 10^9(-1.6\times 10^{-19}(-1.6 \times 10^{-19})}{19} + \frac{9\times 10^9(1.6\times 10^{-19}(-1.6 \times 10^{-19})}{21}

U = (2.3\times 10^{-28})(\frac{1}{19} - \frac{1}{21})

U = 1.15\times 10^{-30}

Now we know

KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

KE = \frac{1}{2}(9.1\times 10^{-31}(100)^2

KE = 4.55 \times 10^{-27} kg

now by energy conservation we will have

So here initial total energy is sufficient high to reach the origin

PART C)

It will reach the origin

A 10-turn coil of wire having a diameter of 1.0 cm and a resistance of 0.50 Ω is in a 1.0 mT magnetic field, with the coil orien
n200080 [17]

Answer:

The voltage across the capacitor is 1.57 V.

Explanation:

Given that,

Number of turns = 10

Diameter = 1.0 cm

Resistance = 0.50 Ω

Capacitor = 1.0μ F

Magnetic field = 1.0 mT

We need to calculate the flux

Using formula of flux

\phi=NBA

Put the value into the formula

\phi=10\times1.0\times10^{-3}\times\pi\times(0.5\times10^{-2})^2

\phi=7.85\times10^{-7}\ Tm^2

We need to calculate the induced emf

Using formula of induced emf

\epsilon=\dfrac{d\phi}{dt}

Put the value into the formula

\epsilon=\dfrac{7.85\times10^{-7}}{dt}

Put the value of emf from ohm's law

\epsilon =IR

IR=\dfrac{7.85\times10^{-7}}{dt}

Idt=\dfrac{7.85\times10^{-7}}{R}

Idt=\dfrac{7.85\times10^{-7}}{0.50}

Idt=0.00000157=1.57\times10^{-6}\ C

We know that,

Idt=dq

dq=1.57\times10^{-6}\ C

We need to calculate the voltage across the capacitor

Using formula of charge

dq=C dV

dV=\dfrac{dq}{C}

Put the value into the formula

dV=\dfrac{1.57\times10^{-6}}{1.0\times10^{-6}}

dV=1.57\ V

Hence, The voltage across the capacitor is 1.57 V.

Two loudspeakers, A and B, are driven by the same amplifier and emit sinusoidal waves in phase. The frequency of the waves emitt
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

The distance of the speaker B would be 1 meters.

Explanation:

Given that,

Frequency of the waves emitted, f = 172 Hz

You are 8.00 m from the speaker.

The speed of sound in air to be 344 m/s.

The wavelength of the wave is given in terms of frequency and the speed of sound. It is given by :

v=f\lambda\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{344\ m/s}{172\ Hz}\\\\\lambda=2\ m

Since, the distance from the Speaker A is 8 m which is the integral multiple of the wavelength. Let the closest distance of the speaker B would be given by :

d=\dfrac{\lambda}{2}\\\\d=\dfrac{2}{2}\\\\d=1\ m

So, the distance of the speaker B would be 1 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.
