Two rocks are tied to massless strings and whirled in nearly horizontal circles so that the time to travel around the circle onc

e is the same for both. One string is twice as long as the other. The tension in the longer string is twice the tension in the shorter one. What is the mass m of the rock at the end of the shorter string compared to the mass m2 of the rock at the end of the longer one? A. m1 = m2/4 B. m1=m2 C. m m2 D. m1=2m2 E. m1= 4m2

Answer:m_1=m_2

Explanation:

Given

Time period for both string is same

\frac{2\pi r}{v_1}=\frac{2\pi 2r}{v_2}

2v_1=v_2

and tension in string 2 is  twice the first string

2T_1=T_2

Tension will provide centripetal acceleration

2\frac{m_1v_1^2}{r}=\frac{m_2v_2^2}{2r}

2\frac{m_1v_1^2}{r}=\frac{m_2\times 4v_1}{2r}

thus m_1=m_2

Suppose you are measuring the height of a small child. What will determine the number if significant digits you record?
slega [8]

The number of significant digits of any measurement is determined by the instrument used for such measurement. For example, in this case, we have the height of a small child being measured. We can use a simple ruler for this, and we see that a ruler has ten divisions for 1 cm. This means that the ruler cannot measure beyond the size of 0.1 cm or 1 mm. Hence, when we report the height of the small child, we report it to one significant digit after the decimal place. As an example, if we measure a child's height to be 90 full cm divisions and 8 smaller divisions, we report it as 90.8 cm but not 90.83 or 90.86 cm.

Recall the previous question and the scenario with Zamir and Talia finding their way through a maze. Why is their displacement t
Ad libitum [116K]

Sample Response: Zamir and Talia’s total distances are different because they walked different paths in the maze. Zamir took a longer path. However, they had the same displacement because they both ended at the same position.

What magnitude charge creates a 1.0 n/c electric field at a point 1.0 m away?
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

1.1\cdot 10^{-10}C

Explanation:

The electric field produced by a single point charge is given by:

E=k\frac{q}{r^2}

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q is the charge

r is the distance from the charge

In this problem, we have

E = 1.0 N/C (magnitude of the electric field)

r = 1.0 m (distance from the charge)

Solving the equation for q, we find the charge:

q=\frac{Er^2}{k}=\frac{(1.0 N/c)(1.0 m)^2}{9\cdot 10^9 Nm^2c^{-2}}=1.1\cdot 10^{-10}C

Wave A has an amplitude of 2 and wave B has an amplitude of 2 as shown below. What will happen when the crest of wave A meets th
puteri [66]
Since the two waves have equal amplitudes, if the crest of one wave
meets the trough of the other one, they'll add to produce a level of zero
at that location.
