Answer:

a. β = 8.23 K

b. β = 28.815 K

Explanation:

Heat pump can be find using the equation

β = TH / TH - TC

a.

TH = 15 ° C + 273.15 K = 288.15 K

TC = - 20 ° C + 273.15 K = 253.15 K

β = 288.15 K / 288.15 k - ( 253.15 K )

β = 8.23 K

b.

TH = 15 ° C + 273.15 K = 288.15 K

TC = 5 ° C + 273.15 K = 278.15 K

β = 288.15 K / 288.15 k - ( 278.15 K )

β = 28.815 K

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

A ball of mass 0.4 kg is initially at rest on the ground. It is kicked and leaves the kicker's foot with a speed of 5.0 m/s in a
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

the answer the correct  is 3

Explanation:

Let's use the relationship between momentum and momentum

         I = Δp

         I = m v_{f} - m v₀

     

Let's calculate

         I = 0.4 5.0 - 0

         I = 2.0 N s

By Newton's law of action and reaction the force on the ball is equal to the force that the ball exerts on the foot, therefore the impulse on the foot of equal magnitude, but in the opposite direction

        I = 2.0 Ns with 60°

When reviewing the answer the correct  is 3

The surface charge density on an infinite charged plane is - 2.10 ×10−6C/m2. A proton is shot straight away from the plane at 2.
inn [45]

Explanation:

Formula to calculate electric field because of the plate is as follows.

         E = \frac{\sigma}{2 \times \epsilon_{o}}

            = \frac{2.10 \times 10^{-6}}{2 \times 8.85 \times 10^{-12}}

           = 1.18 \times 10^{5} N/C

Now, we will consider that equilibrium of forces are present there. So,

                   ma = qE

       a = \frac{1.6 \times 10^{-19} \times 1.18 \times 10^{5}}{1.67 \times 10^{-27}}

          = 1.13 \times 10^{13} m/s^2

According to the third equation of motion,

         v^{2} = 2 \times a \times d

or,      d = \frac{v^{2}}{2d}

             = \frac{(2.4 \times 10^{6})^{2}}{2 \times 1.13 \times 10^{13}}

             = 0.254 m

Thus, we can conclude that the proton will travel 0.254 m before reaching its turning point.

If one replaces the conducting cube with one that has positive charge carriers, in what direction does the induced electric fiel
Grace [21]

Answer:

There will be no change in the direction of the electric field .

Explanation:

The direction will remain the same because the sign of the charges has no effect on it.

When one replaces the conducting cube with one that has positive charge carriers there will be no change in the direction of the field as there is no defined relationship between the direction of the electric field and sign of the charge.

An unspecified force causes a 0.20-kg object to accelerate at 0.40 m/s2. If 0.30 kg is added to the 0.20-kg object and the force
Naddik [55]

Answer:

a = 0.16

Explanation:

given,

mass of the object 1 = 0.2 kg

mass of the object 2 = 0.3 kg

acceleration when force is on 0.2 kg = 0.4 m/s²

acceleration when both mass are combine = ?

F = m a

F = 0.2 × 0.4

F = 0.08 N

force acting is same and total mass  = 0.2 + 0.3 = 0.5 Kg

F = m a

a = \dfrac{F}{m}

a = \dfrac{0.08}{0.5}

a = 0.16 m/s²

the acceleration  acting when both the body is attached is a = 0.16
