Answer:

9.67 A

Explanation:

The weight of a student with a mass of m = 75 kg is:

$W=mg=(75 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=735 N$

where g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity.

We want the magnetic force on the wire to be equal to this weight. The magnetic force on the wire is

$F=ILB sin \theta$

where

I is the current in the wire

L = 2.0 m is the length of the wire

B = 38 T is the magnetic field

$\theta=90^{\circ}$ is the angle between the direction of B and L

Since we want W=F, we can write

$ILB sin \theta=W$

And we can solve it to find the current I:

$I=\frac{W}{BLsin\theta}=\frac{735 N}{(38 T)(2.0 m)(sin 90^{\circ})}=9.67 A$

Find an expression for the torsional constant k in terms of the moment of inertia I of the disk and the angular frequency ω of s

sasho [114]

Answer:

Explanation:

The general equation for the disk with moment of inertia I when given small angular displacement $\theta$ is given by

$I\frac{\mathrm{d^2} \theta }{\mathrm{d} t^2}=-k\theta$

$\frac{\mathrm{d^2} \theta }{\mathrm{d} t^2}+\frac{k\theta }{I}=0$

Replacing

$\frac{k\theta }{I}=\omega ^2$

where $\omega$ is the angular frequency of oscillation

General solution for this Equation is given by

$\theta =\theta _{max}\sin \left ( \omega t+\phi \right )$

where $\theta _{max}=maximum\ angular\ displacement$

$\phi =Phase\ difference$

Thus K can be written as

$k=I\omega ^2$

Which of the following expressions will have units of kg⋅m/s2? Select all that apply, where x is position, v is velocity, m is m

netineya [11]

Answer: $m \frac{d}{dt}v_{(t)}$

Explanation:

In the image attached with this answer are shown the given options from which only one is correct.

The correct expression is:

$m \frac{d}{dt}v_{(t)}$

Because, if we derive velocity $v_{t}$ with respect to time $t$ we will have acceleration $a$ , hence:

$m \frac{d}{dt}v_{(t)}=m.a$

Where $m$ is the mass with units of kilograms ( $kg$ ) and $a$ with units of meter per square seconds $\frac{m}{s}^{2}$ , having as a result $kg\frac{m}{s}^{2}$

The other expressions are incorrect, let’s prove it:

$\frac{m}{2} \frac{d}{dx}{(v_{(x)})}^{2}=\frac{m}{2} 2v_{(x)}^{2-1}=mv_{(x)}$ This result has units of $kg\frac{m}{s}$

$m\frac{d}{dt}a_{(t)}=ma_{(t)}^{1-1}=m$ This result has units of $kg$

$m\int x_{(t)} dt= m \frac{{(x_{(t)})}^{1+1}}{1+1}+C=m\frac{{(x_{(t)})}^{2}}{2}+C$ This result has units of $kgm^{2}$ and $C$ is a constant

$m\frac{d}{dt}x_{(t)}=mx_{(t)}^{1-1}=m$ This result has units of $kg$

$m\frac{d}{dt}v_{(t)}=mv_{(t)}^{1-1}=m$ This result has units of $kg$

$\frac{m}{2}\int {(v_{(t)})}^{2} dt= \frac{m}{2} \frac{{(v_{(t)})}^{2+1}}{2+1}+C=\frac{m}{6} {(v_{(t)})}^{3}+C$ This result has units of $kg \frac{m^{3}}{s^{3}}$ and $C$ is a constant

$m\int a_{(t)} dt= \frac{m {a_{(t)}}^{2}}{2}+C$ This result has units of $kg \frac{m^{2}}{s^{4}}$ and $C$ is a constant

$\frac{m}{2} \frac{d}{dt}{(v_{(x)})}^{2}=0$ because $v_{(x)}$ is a constant in this derivation respect to $t$

$m\int v_{(t)} dt= \frac{m {v_{(t)}}^{2}}{2}+C$ This result has units of $kg \frac{m^{2}}{s^{2}}$ and $C$ is a constant
