The wall of a large room is covered with acoustic tile in which small holes are drilled 4.6 mm from center to center. How far ca

n a person be from such a tile in meters and still distinguish the individual holes, assuming ideal conditions, the pupil diameter of the observer's eye to be 4.0 mm, and the wavelength of the room light to be 550 nm?

Answer:

L= 27.42m

Explanation:

We have the variables

D=4.6*10^{-3}m

d= 4*10^{-3}m

\lambda = 550*10^{-9}m

Use the relation,

L=\frac{D}{\theta_R} = \frac{D_d}{1.22\lambda}

L= \frac{(4.6*10^{-3}m)(4*10^{-3}m)}{1.22(550*10^{-9}m)}

L= 27.42m

To measure the coefficient of kinetic friction by sliding a block down an inclined plane the block must be in equilibrium.
lozanna [386]

Answer:

a)

Explanation:

  • A block sliding down an inclined plane, is subject to two external forces along the slide.
  • One is the component of gravity (the weight) parallel to the incline.
  • If the inclined plane makes an angle θ with the horizontal, this component (projection of the downward gravity along the incline, can be written as follows:

        F_{gp} = m*g* sin \theta (1)

       (taking as positive the direction of the movement of the block)

  • The other force, is the friction force, that adopts any value needed to meet the Newton's 2nd Law.
  • When θ is so large, than the block moves downward along the incline, the friction force can be expressed as follows:

       F_{f} = \mu_{k} * N  (2)

  • The normal force, adopts the value needed to prevent any vertical movement through the surface of the incline:

       N = m*g* cos \theta (3)

  • In equilibrium, both forces, as defined in (1), (2) and (3) must be equal in magnitude, as follows:

        m*g* sin \theta =  \mu_{k} * m*g* cos \theta

  • As the block is moving, if the net force is 0, according to Newton's 2nd Law, the block must be moving at constant speed.
  • In this condition, the friction coefficient is the kinetic one (μk), which can be calculated as follows:

        \mu_{k}  = tg \theta

|| Climbing ropes stretch when they catch a falling climber, thus increasing the time it takes the climber to come to rest and r
Otrada [13]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Newton's second law and the kinematic equations of movement description.

Newton's second law is defined as

F = ma

Where,

m = mass

a = acceleration

From this equation we can figure the acceleration out, then

a = \frac{F}{m}

a = \frac{11*10^3}{80}

a = 137.5m/s

From the cinematic equations of motion we know that

v_f^2-v_i^2 = 2ax

Where,

v_f =Final velocity

v_i =Initial velocity

a = acceleration

x = displacement

There is not Final velocity and the acceleration is equal to the gravity, then

v_f^2-v_i^2 = 2ax

0-v_i^2 = 2(-g)x

v_i =\sqrt{2gx}

v_i = \sqrt{2*9.8*4.8}

v_i = 9.69m/s

From the equation of motion where acceleration is equal to the velocity in function of time we have

a = \frac{v_i}{t}

t = \frac{v_i}{a}

t =\frac{9.69}{137.5}

t = 0.0705s

Therefore the time required is 0.0705s

vredina [299]

Answer:

The angular speed after 6s  is \omega = 1466.67s^{-1}.

Explanation:

The equation

I\alpha  = Fd

relates the moment of inertia I of a rigid body, and its angular acceleration \alpha, with the force applied F at a distance d from the axis of rotation.

In our case, the force applied is F = 22N, at a distance d = 6cm =0.06m, to a ring with the moment of inertia of I =mr^2; therefore, the angular acceleration is

$\alpha =\frac{Fd}{I} $

$\alpha =\frac{22N*0.06m}{(1.5kg)*(0.06)^2} $

\alpha  = 244.44\: s^{-2}

Therefore, the angular speed \omega which is

\omega  = \alpha t

after 6 seconds is

\omega = 244.44$\: s^{-2}* 6s

\boxed{\omega = 1466.67s^{-1}}

Come si compongono due forze che agiscono in diversi punti di un corpo rigido? Oof
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

Explanation:

I dont know if this will help but A two force member is a body that has forces (and only forces, no moments) acting on it in only two locations. In order to have a two force member in static equilibrium, the net force at each location must be equal, opposite, and collinear.

The plug has a diameter of 30 mm and fits within a rigid sleeve having an inner diameter of 32 mm. Both the plug and the sleeve
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

P=740 KPa

Δ=7.4 mm

Explanation:

Given that

Diameter of plunger,d=30 mm

Diameter of sleeve ,D=32 mm

Length .L=50 mm

E= 5 MPa

n=0.45

As we know that

Lateral strain

\varepsilon _t=\dfrac{D-d}{d}

\varepsilon _t=\dfrac{32-30}{30}

\varepsilon _t=0.0667

We know that

n=-\dfrac{\epsilon _t}{\varepsilon _{long}}

\varepsilon _{long}=-\dfrac{\epsilon _t}{n}

\varepsilon _{long}=-\dfrac{0.0667}{0.45}

\varepsilon _{long}=-0.148

So the axial pressure

P=E\times \varepsilon _{long}

P=5\times 0.148

P=740 KPa

The movement in the sleeve

\Delta =\varepsilon _{long}\times L

\Delta =0.148\times 50

Δ=7.4 mm
