Answer:
3.1 kg
Explanation:
Applying,
R = m(g-a)..................... Equation 1
Where R = weight of the scale when the elevator is coming down, a = acceleration of the elevator, g = acceleration due to gravith.
From the question,
Given: m = 5 kg, a = 3.8 m/s²
Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²
Substitute these values into equation 1
R = 5(9.8-3.8)
R = 5(6)
R = 30 N
Hence the spring scale is
m' = R/g
m' = 30/9.8
m' = 3.1 kg

According to Newton's law of universal gravitation, the force F between two bodies of constant mass m and M is given by the formula F = G m M d 2 , where G is the gravitational constant and d is the distance between the bodies. a. Suppose that are constants. Find the rate of change of force F with respect to distance d .
Answer:
One can write F = K d^-2 where K = G M m
So dF/dd = -2 K d^-3 = -2 K / d^3 (As d increases F decreases - it is opposite to the direction of F)
A nylon string on a tennis racket is under a tension of 285 N . If its diameter is 1.10 mm , by how much is it lengthened from its untensioned length of 29.0 cm ? Use ENylon=5.00×109N/m2.
Answer:
1.74×10⁻³ m
Explanation:
Applying,
ε = Stress/strain............. Equation 1
Where ε = Young's modulus
But,
Stress = F/A.............. Equation 2
Where F = Force, A = Area
Strain = e/L.............. Equation 3
e = extension, L = Length.
Substitute equation 2 and 3 into equation 1
ε = (F/A)/(e/L) = FL/eA............. Equation 4
From the question,
Given: F = 285 N, L = 29 cm = 0.29 m, ε = 5.00×10⁹ N/m²,
A = πd²/4 = 3.14(0.0011²)/4 = 9.4985×10⁻⁶ m²
Substitute these values into equation 4
5.00×10⁹ = (285×0.29)/(9.4985×10⁻⁶×e)
Solve for e
e = (285×0.29)/(5.00×10⁹×9.4985×10⁻⁶)
e = 82.65/4.74925×10⁴
e = 1.74×10⁻³ m

A man is pulling a 20 kg box with a rope that makes an angle of 60 with the horizontal.If he applies a force of 150 N and a frictional force of 15 N is present, calculate the acceleration of the box.
∑ F (horizontal) = (150 N) cos(60°) - 15 N = (20 kg) a
==> a = ((150 N) cos(60°) - 15 N)/(20 kg) = 3 m/s²
To calculate the acceleration of the box, we need to consider the net force acting on it. So, the acceleration of the box is 3 m/s².
The net force is the vector sum of the applied force and the force of friction. First, let's find the horizontal and vertical components of the applied force:
Horizontal component of the applied force (F[tex]_{horizontal}[/tex]) = F[tex]_{applied}[/tex] × cos(θ)
F[tex]_{horizontal}[/tex] = 150 N × cos(60°)
F[tex]_{horizontal}[/tex] = 150 N × 0.5
F[tex]_{horizontal}[/tex] = 75 N
Vertical component of the applied force (F[tex]_{vertical}[/tex]) = F[tex]_{applied}[/tex] × sin(θ)
F[tex]_{vertical}[/tex] = 150 N × sin(60°)
F[tex]_{vertical}[/tex] = 150 N × (√3 / 2)
F[tex]_{vertical}[/tex] ≈ 129.9 N
Now, let's calculate the net force in the horizontal direction:
Net Force in the horizontal direction (F[tex]_{net horizontal}[/tex]) = F[tex]_{horizontal}[/tex] - F[tex]_{friction}[/tex]
F[tex]_{net horizontal}[/tex] = 75 N - 15 N
F[tex]_{net horizontal}[/tex] = 60 N
Now, we can calculate the acceleration (a) using Newton's second law of motion, F = ma:
F[tex]_{net horizontal}[/tex] = m × a
60 N = 20 kg × a
Now, solve for acceleration (a):
a = 60 N / 20 kg
a = 3 m/s²
So, the acceleration of the box is 3 m/s².

A physics instructor wants to project a spectrum of visible-light colors from 400 nm to 700 nm as part of a classroom demonstration. She shines a beam of white light through a diffraction grating that has 600 lines per mm, projecting a pattern on a screen 2.9 m behind the grating.
Required:
How wide is the spectrum corresponding to m=1?
Answer:
Dr = 263 10⁻⁶ m
Explanation:
The diffraction pattern for constructive interference is described by
a sin θ = m λ
in this it indicates that the order of diffraction is m = 1
Let's use a direct proportion rule to find the separation of two slits. If there are 600 lines in 1 me, what is the distance between 2 slits
a = 2 lines 1/600
a = 2/600
a = 3.33 10⁻³ mm = 3.33 10⁻⁴ cm
let's use trigonometry
tan θ = y / L
as the measured angles are small
tan θ = sin θ / cos θ sin θ
sin θ = y / L
we substitute
a y/L = λ
y = λ L / a
for λ = 400 10-9 m
I = 400 10⁻⁹ 2.9 / 3.33 10⁻³
i = 346.89 10⁻⁶ m
f
or λ = 700 nm
y_f = 700 10⁻⁻⁹ 2.9 / 3.33 10⁻³
y_f = 609.609 10⁻⁶ m
the separation of this spectrum
Δr = v_f - i

Q.3. The equivalent resistance across AB is:
(a)1
(c)2
(b)3
(d)4
Answer:
1 ohm
Explanation:
First of all, the equivalent resistance for two resistors (r₁ and r₂) in parallel is given by:
1 / Eq = (1 / r₁) + (1 / r₂)
The equivalent resistance for resistance for two resistors (r₁ and r₂) in series is given by:
Eq = r₁ + r₂
Hence as we can see from the circuit diagram, 2Ω // 2Ω, and 2Ω // 2Ω, hence:
1/E₁ = 1/2 + 1/2
1/E₁ = 1
E₁ = 1Ω
1/E₂ = 1/2 + 1/2
1/E₂ = 1
E₂ = 1Ω
This then leads to E₁ being in series with E₂, hence the equivalent resistance (E₃) of E₁ and E₂ is:
E₃ = E₁ + E₂ = 1 + 1 = 2Ω
The equivalent resistance (Eq) across AB is the parallel combination of E₃ and the 2Ω resistor, therefore:
1/Eq = 1/E₃ + 1/2
1/Eq = 1/2 + 1/2
1/Eq = 1
Eq = 1Ω

A rocket explodes into two fragments, one 25 times heavier than the other. The magnitude of the momentum change of the lighter fragment is A) 25 times as great as the momentum change of the heavier fragment. B) The same as the momentum change of the heavier fragment. C) 1/25 as great as the momentum change of the heavier fragment. D) 5 times as great as the momentum change of the heavier fragment. E) 1/4 as great as the momentum change of the heavier fragment.
Answer:
B) The same as the momentum change of the heavier fragment.
Explanation:
Since the initial momentum of the system is zero, we have
0 = p + p' where p = momentum of lighter fragment = mv where m = mass of lighter fragment, v = velocity of lighter fragment, and p' = momentum of heavier fragment = m'v' where m = mass of heavier fragment = 25m and v = velocity of heavier fragment.
0 = p + p'
p = -p'
Since the initial momentum of each fragment is zero, the momentum change of lighter fragment Δp = final momentum - initial momentum = p - 0 = p
The momentum change of heavier fragment Δp' = final momentum - initial momentum = p' - 0 = p' - 0 = p'
Since p = -p' and Δp = p and Δp' = -p = p ⇒ Δp = Δp'
So, the magnitude of the momentum change of the lighter fragment is the same as that of the heavier fragment.
So, option B is the answer
A transparent. dielectric coating is applied to glass (εr = 4.μr=1, σ= 0) to eliminate the reflection of red light (wavelength in air of 750 nm).
a. What is the required dielectric constant and minimum thickness of the coating?
b. If violet light (wavelength in air of 420 nm) is shone onto this glass coating (6-0). what percentage of the incident power will be reflected?
Answer:
a) Dielectric constant ( λ ) = 750 * 10^-9 m
minimum thickness of coating ( d ) = 187.5 nm
b) 3.6%
Explanation:
Given data:
wavelength of red light in air = 750 nm
εr = 4
μr = 1, σ = 0
a) Determine the required dielectric constant and min thickness of coating used
Refractive index of coating ( n ) = √εr * μr = √4*1 = 2
the refractive index of glass( ng) = 1.5 which is < 2
λ = 750 * 10^-9 m
Dielectric constant ( λ ) = 750 * 10^-9 m
To determine the minimum thickness we will apply the formula below
d = m λ/2n ; where m = 1
∴ d = 750 nm / 2 ( 2 )
= 187.5 nm
minimum thickness of coating ( d ) = 187.5 nm
b) Determine the percentage of the incident power that will be reflected
R = [ ( n-1 / n + 1 ) - ( n - ng / ng + n ) ]^2
= [ ( 2 - 1 / 2 + 1 ) - ( 2 - 1.5 / 1.5 + 2 ) ]^2
= 0.03628 = 3.6%

K/2.
K.
2K.
greater than 2K.
Answer:
2K
Explanation:
Given that the kinetic energy of photo electrons is given by;
K= E -Wo
Where;
K = kinetic energy
E= energy of incident photon
Wo = work function
But;
E= hf
Wo = fo
h= Plank's constant
f= frequency of incident photon
fo= Threshold frequency
So:
K= hf - hfo
Where the frequency of incident light is doubled;
K= 2hf - hfo
Hence, maximum kinetic energy of the emitted electrons in this case will be 2K

What is the maximum possible acceleration the truck can give the SUV?
At this acceleration, what is the force of the SUV's bumper on the truck's bumper?
Answer:
The net magnitude of the force of the SUV's bumper on the truck's bumper is 9120 N.
Explanation:
Concepts and reason
The concept required to solve this problem is Newton’s second law of motion.
Initially, write an expression for the force according to the Newton’s second law of motion. Later, rearrange the expression for the acceleration. Finally, substitute the value of the acceleration obtained to find the new force.
Fundamentals
According to the Newton’s second law of motion, the net force is equal to the product of the mass and the acceleration of an object. The expression for the Newton’s second law of motion is as follows:
F = maF=ma
Here, m is mass and a is the acceleration.
(a)
Rearrange the equation F = maF=ma for a.
a = \frac{F}{m}a=
m
F
Substitute 18,000 N for F and \left( {2300{\rm{ kg + 2400 kg}}} \right)(2300kg+2400kg) for m in the equation a = \frac{F}{m}a=
m
F
.
\begin{array}{c}\\a = \frac{{18,000{\rm{ N}}}}{{\left( {2300{\rm{ kg + 2400 kg}}} \right)}}\\\\ = \frac{{18,000{\rm{ N}}}}{{\left( {4700{\rm{ kg}}} \right)}}\\\\ = 3.83{\rm{ m/}}{{\rm{s}}^2}\\\end{array}
a=
(2300kg+2400kg)
18,000N
=
(4700kg)
18,000N
=3.83m/s
2
(b)
Substitute 3.83{\rm{ m/}}{{\rm{s}}^2}3.83m/s
2
for a and 2400 kg for m in the equation F = maF=ma .
\begin{array}{c}\\F = \left( {2400{\rm{ kg}}} \right)\left( {3.83{\rm{ m/}}{{\rm{s}}^2}} \right)\\\\ = 9120{\rm{ N}}\\\end{array}
F=(2400kg)(3.83m/s
2
)
=9120N
Ans: Part a
The maximum possible acceleration the truck can give the SUV is 3.83{\rm{ m/}}{{\rm{s}}^2}3.83m/s
2
.
Part b
The net magnitude of the force of the SUV's bumper on the truck's bumper is 9120 N.
The maximum possible acceleration the truck can give the SUV is equal to 4 m/s².
The force of the SUV's bumper on the truck's bumper is 10000N
What is acceleration?Acceleration of an object can be described as as the change in the velocity of an object w.r.t. time. The acceleration is a vector quantity, contains both magnitude and direction. Acceleration is the second derivative of position w.r.t. time and the first derivative of velocity w.r.t. time.
According to Newton's second law of motion, the force is equal to the product of acceleration and mass of an object.
F = ma
And, a = F/m
Given, the mass of the ruck , m = 2000 Kg
The mass of the SUV, M = 2500 Kg
The total mass of the both = 2000 + 2500 = 4500 Kg
The maximum force on the trick , F = 18000 N
The maximum acceleration of the truck can give the SUV:
[tex]a_{max} = \frac{F_{max}}{m+M}[/tex]
a = 18000/4500
a = 4 m/s²
The force of the SUV's bumper on the truck's bumper will be:
[tex]F_{max} -f= ma_{max}[/tex]
[tex]f= 18000-2000\times 4[/tex]
[tex]f =10000N[/tex]

Why is oiling done time and again in a sewing machine?
Answer:
to prevent friction on the surfaces
Answer:
Explanation:
Oiling reduces friction between parts with relative motion between them.
Repeated oiling is needed as the film of oil reducing the friction becomes thinner with time as some of the oil gets pushed off of the areas of motion where it can no longer be useful.
Oil also becomes oxidized which reduces the oil's ability to decrease friction.
Oil can also be fouled by dirt, lint or other material. This added material becomes coated in oil and typically gets sequestered away from the moving parts reducing the oil available for lubrication purposes.
friction always opposes the _____
Answer:
Friction always opposes the motion

If 56.5 m3 of a gas are collected at a pressure of 455 mm Hg, what volume will the gas occupy if the pressure is changed to 632 mm Hg? *
Assuming ideal conditions, Boyle's law says that
P₁ V₁ = P₂ V₂
where P₁ and V₁ are the initial pressure and temperature, respectively, and P₂ and V₂ are the final pressure and temperature.
So you have
(455 mm Hg) (56.5 m³) = (632 mm Hg) V₂
==> V₂ = (455 mm Hg) (56.5 m³) / (632 mm Hg) ≈ 40.7 m³
A planet of mass m = 4.25 x 1024 kg orbits a star of mass M = 6.75 x 1029 kg in a circular path. The radius of the orbits R = 8.85 x 107 km. What is the orbital period Tplanet of the planet in Earth days?
285.3 days
Explanation:
The centripetal force [tex]F_c[/tex] experienced by the planet is the same as the gravitational force [tex]F_G[/tex] so we can write
[tex]F_c = F_G[/tex]
or
[tex]m\dfrac{v^2}{R} = G\dfrac{mM}{R^2}[/tex]
where M is the mass of the star and R is the orbital radius around the star. We know that
[tex]v = \dfrac{C}{T} = \dfrac{2\pi R}{T}[/tex]
where C is the orbital circumference and T is orbital period. We can then write
[tex]\dfrac{4\pi^2R}{T^2} = G\dfrac{M}{R^2}[/tex]
Isolating [tex]T^2[/tex], we get
[tex]T^2 = \dfrac{4\pi^2R^3}{GM}[/tex]
Taking the square root of the expression above, we get
[tex]T = 2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{R^3}{GM}}[/tex]
which turns out to be [tex]T = 2.47×10^7\:\text{s}[/tex]. We can convert this into earth days as
[tex]T = 2.47×10^7\:\text{s}×\dfrac{1\:\text{hr}}{3600\:\text{s}}×\dfrac{1\:\text{day}}{24\:\text{hr}}[/tex]
[tex]\:\:\:\:\:= 285.3\:\text{days}[/tex]
An observer on Earth sees spaceship 1 fly by at 0.80c. 6.0 years later, the observer on Earth sees spaceship 2 fly by at 0.80c, traveling in the same direction as the first. Both spaceships continue to travel with constant velocities. An observer in spaceship 1 observes Earth to pass spaceship 2 ____ years after Earth passed spaceship 1.
Answer:
[tex]t_2=10[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Velocity of both spaceships [tex]V=0.8c[/tex]
Time [tex]t_1=6[/tex]
Generally the equation for time of spaceship 2 through earth is mathematically given by
[tex]t_2=\frac{t_1}{\sqrt{1-v^2}}[/tex]
[tex]t_2=\frac{6}{\sqrt{1-0.8^2}}[/tex]
[tex]t_2=10[/tex]
