To solve this problem we will use the concepts related to the flow rate, which describes the volumetric amount of a fluid that travels a point in a given time. Mathematically it can be expressed as

Q = AV

Where

A= Area

V = Volume

Our values are given as

A = 15*8 = 120m^2

V = 2.5m/s

Replacing we have to

Q = 120*2.5

Q = 300m^3/s

At this point we know that 1 m ^ 3 of water is equivalent to 1000Kg (Its value in density at normal conditions)

Q = 300\frac{m^3}{s} (\frac{1000kg}{1m^3})

Q= 3*10^5kg/s

An green hoop with mass mh = 2.8 kg and radius rh = 0.13 m hangs from a string that goes over a blue solid disk pulley with mass
Otrada [13]
The only force on the system is the mass of the hoop F net = 2.8kg*9.81m/s^2 = 27.468 N The mass equal of the rolling sphere is found by: the sphere rotates around the contact point with the table. 
So by applying the theorem of parallel axes, the moment of inertia of the sphere is computed by:I = 2/5*mR^2 for rotation about the center of mass + mR^2 for the distance of the axis of rotation from the center of mass of the sphere. 
I = 7/5*mR^2 M = 7/5*m 
Therefore, linear acceleration is computed by:F/m = 27.468 / (2.8 + 1/2*2 + 7/5*4) = 27.468/9.4 = 2.922 m/s^2

We observe that a moving charged particle experiences no magnetic force. From this we can definitely conclude that:_______
Leto [7]

Answer:

b. the particle must be moving parallel to the magnetic field.

Explanation:

The magnetic force on a moving charged particle is given by;

F = qvBsinθ

where;

q is the charge of the particle

v is the velocity of the particle

B is the magnetic field

θ is the angle between the magnetic field and velocity of the moving particle.

When is the charge is stationary the magnetic force on the charge is zero.

Also when the charge is moving parallel to the magnetic field, the magnetic force is zero.

Therefore, when a moving charged particle experiences no magnetic force, we can definitely conclude that the particle must be moving parallel to the magnetic field.

b. the particle must be moving parallel to the magnetic field.

A student must design an experiment to determine the relationship between the mass of an object and the resulting acceleration w
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

D) Slide an object of known mass across a rough surface, using a constant applied force that can be measured by a force sensor. Place a motion detector behind the object so that its speed can be measured as it slides across the surface. Repeat the experiment for different applied forces.

Explanation:

"The motion detector will provide information about the object’s speed as a function of time as it slides as a result of the applied force. The information about the object’s speed as a function of time can be used to determine the acceleration of the object. The force sensor measures the applied force exerted on the object, and the mass of the object is known. Therefore, this experiment can be used to determine how an object’s mass is related to the net force exerted on the object and the acceleration of the object."

It cannot be A because we need an acceleration will be determined by gravity.

It cannot be B because the term constant speed means that there is no net force, which is required by the initial question.

It cannot be C because the experiment is good for determining the coefficient of friction but not for determining how the mass relates to the acceleration.

It must be D because the object is moving and we have a motion detector, we can graph the acceleration vs time graph. So D allows you to have a lot of the different acceleration values which helps with determining the relationship between acceleration and the mass.

During a race the dirt bike was observed to leap up off the small hill at A at an angle of 60^o with the horizontal. If the poin
const2013 [10]

Answer:

Velocity is equal to 27.3 feet per second  and time is equal to 1.4668 seconds

Explanation:

Given

The horizontal distance traveled by  dirt bike before landing = 20 feet

Angle of flight = 60 degree

As we know that Horizontal distance (H) is equal to

= H_0 + V_0 * t\\

Where H_0 is the initial horizontal distance

V_0 is the velocity with which the bike is travelling in horizontal direction

and t is the time in seconds

Substituting the given values, we get -

H = H_0 + v*t\\20 = 0 + v * cos \theta * t\\20 = v * cos 60 * t\\t = \frac{20}{v * cos 60} \\t = \frac{40}{v}

Now distance traveled in vertical direction is equal to

Y = Y_0 + v_0 * t + \frac{1}{2} a * t^2

here acceleration will be equal to acceleration due to gravity which is equal to - 32.2 \frac{ft}{s^2}. It is negative as its is acting in upward direction

Thus,

Y = 0 + v * sin 60 + \frac{1}{2}  * (-32.2) * (\frac{40}{v} )^2\\0 = 0  + 0.866 v + \frac{-25760}{v^2} \\0.866 v = \frac{-25760}{v^2}\\v^3 = \frac{-25760}{0.866} \\v = 27.3

Velocity is equal to 27.3 feet per second  and time is equal to 1.4668 seconds

A 4.15-volt battery is connected across a parallel-plate capacitor. Illuminating the plates with ultraviolet light causes electr
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

a ) 2.13 X 10⁶ m/s .

b ) 1.28 X 10⁶ m/s

Explanation:

When electrons are repelled by negative plates and attracted by positive plates , it will increase their kinetic energy.

Increase in their energy = 4.15 eV

= 4.5 X 1.6 X 10⁻¹⁹ J

= 6.64 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

Initial kinetic energy

= 1/2 mv²

= 1/2 x 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ x ( 1.76 x 10⁶)²

= 14.09 X 10⁻¹⁹ J

Total energy

= 6.64 x 10⁻¹⁹+14.09 X 10⁻¹⁹

= 20.73 x 10⁻¹⁹

If V be the increased velocity

1/2 m V² = 20.73 X 10⁻¹⁹

.5 X 9.1 X 10⁻³¹ V² = 20.73 X 10⁻¹⁹

V = 2.13 X 10⁶ m/s .

b ) When electrons are released from positive plate , their speed are reduced because of attraction between electrons and positively charge plates.

Initial kinetic energy

= 14.09 x 10⁻¹⁹ J (see above )

reduction in kinetic energy  

= 6.64 x 10⁻¹⁹ J ( See above )

Total energy with electron -

= 14.09 x 10⁻¹⁹  - 6.64 x 10⁻¹⁹

= 7. 45 x 10⁻¹⁹ J .

If V be the energy of electrons reaching the negative plate,

1/2 m V² =7. 45 x 10⁻¹⁹

V = 1.28 X 10⁶ ms⁻¹
