Astronaut Jill leaves Earth in a spaceship and is now traveling at a speed of 0.280c relative to an observer on Earth. When Jill left Earth, the spaceship was equipped with all kinds of scientific instruments, including a meter stick. Now that Jill is underway, how long does she measure the meter stick to be?
A) 0.280 m
B) 1.00 m
C) 0.960 m
D) 1.28 m
E) 1.04 m

Answers

Answer 1

(B) 1.00 m

Explanation:

Since the meter stick is traveling with Jill, it will have the same speed as she does so relative to Jill, the meter stick is stationary so its length remains 1.00 m as measured by her.

Answer 2

When astronaut Jill leaves Earth in a spaceship and is now traveling at a speed of 0.280c and measure the meter stick to be 1 meter. Hence, option B is correct.

What is length contraction?

Length contraction is defined as the phenomenon of the moving object being shorter than its appropriate length, measured in the object's rest frame.

When the object travels with the speed of light, the length of the object gets more contracted than its original length, relative to the observer. It is also known as the Lorentz-Fitgerald contraction.

Length contraction, L = L₀√(1-v²/c²), where L is the original length, L₀ is the contracted length. c² is known as the velocity of light. v² is the velocity of the speed of the object.

From the given,

speed of the spaceship = 0.280c      (c is the speed of the light)

Length contraction, L = L₀ √(1-v²/c²)

The stick also travels in the spaceship. Hence, the length of the meter stick does not change. It remains at its original length of one meter.  Thus, the ideal solution is option B.

The work done by gravity on a ball of 2 kg which is moving with a constant speed of 6 meter per second is zero. Thus, the correct option is A.

What is Work?

Work is the energy transfer to or from an object through the application of force along with the displacement. For a constant force aligned with the direction of motion, the work done is equal to the product of the force strength which is applied and the distance traveled by the object.

Work = Force × Displacement

Force = Mass × Acceleration

Acceleration of the ball is zero as it is moving with a constant speed. Therefore, the work done by the gravity is zero.

Therefore, the correct option is A.

11. From this lab we can conclude that a) the heat transferred when objects are rubbed together creates an energy that can cause objects to move towards or away from each other. b) objects such as balloons and sweaters have a natural affinity towards each other. They will attract each other whether they are rubbed together or not. c) charges exert forces on other charges. do) charges do not exert forces on other charges.

Answers

Answer:

c) charges exert forces on other charges.

Explanation:

When two different materials are rubbed together, there is a transfer of electrons from one material to the other material so this causes one object to become positively charged and the other object is negatively charged so they will attract each other not repel each other. Charges exert forces on other charges i.e. opposite charges attract each other whereas similar charges repel each other so in both cases force are exerted on one another.

A block of mass 0.260 kg is placed on top of a light, vertical spring of force constant 5 200 N/m and pushed downward so that the spring is compressed by 0.090 m. After the block is released from rest, it travels upward and then leaves the spring. To what maximum height above the point of release does it rise

Answers

After being released, the restoring force exerted by the spring performs

1/2 (5200 N/m) (0.090 m)² = 12.06 J

of work on the block. At the same time, the block's weight performs

- (0.260 kg) g (0.090 m) ≈ -0.229 J

of work. Then the total work done on the block is about

W ≈ 11.83 J

The block accelerates to a speed v such that, by the work-energy theorem,

W = ∆K   ==>   11.83 J = 1/2 (0.260 kg) v ²   ==>   v ≈ 9.54 m/s

Past the equilibrium point, the spring no longer exerts a force on the block, and the only force acting on it is due to its weight, hence it has a downward acceleration of magnitude g. At its highest point, the block has zero velocity, so that

0² - v ² = -2gy

where y is the maximum height. Solving for y gives

y = v ²/(2g) ≈ 4.64 m

Two 51 g blocks are held 30 cm above a table. As shown in the figure, one of them is just touching a 30-long spring. The blocks are released at the same time. The block on the left hits the table at exactly the same instant as the block on the right first comes to an instantaneous rest. What is the spring constant?

Answers

The concept of this question can be well understood by listing out the parameters given.

The mass of the block = 51 g = 51 × 10⁻³ kgThe distance of the block from the table = 30 cmLength of the spring = 30 cm

The purpose is to determine the spring constant.

Let us assume that the two blocks are Block A and Block B.

At point A on block A, the initial velocity on the block is zero

i.e. u = 0

We want to determine the time it requires for Block A to reach the table. The can be achieved by using the second equation of motion which can be expressed by using the formula.

[tex]\mathsf{S = ut + \dfrac{1}{2}gt^2}[/tex]

From the above formula,

The distance (S) = 30 cm; we need to convert the unit to meter (m).

Since 1 cm = 0.01 mThen, 30cm = 0.3 m

The acceleration (g) due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

inputting the values into the equation above, we have;

[tex]\mathsf{0.3 = (0)t + \dfrac{1}{2}*(9.80)*(t^2)}[/tex]

[tex]\mathsf{0.3 = \dfrac{1}{2}*(9.80)*(t^2)}[/tex]

[tex]\mathsf{0.3 =4.9*(t^2)}[/tex]

By dividing both sides by 4.9, we have:

[tex]\mathsf{t^2 = \dfrac{0.3}{4.9}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathsf{t^2 = 0.0612}[/tex]

[tex]\mathsf{t = \sqrt{0.0612}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{t =0.247 \ seconds}[/tex]

However, block B comes to an instantaneous rest on point C. This is achieved by the dropping of the block on the spring. During this process, the spring is compressed and it bounces back to oscillate in that manner. The required time needed to get to this point C is half the period, this will eventually lead to the bouncing back of the block with another half of the period, thereby completing a movement of one period.

By applying the equation of the time period of a simple harmonic motion.

[tex]\mathbf{T = 2 \pi \sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}}[/tex]

where the relation between time (t) and period (T) is:

[tex]\mathsf{t = \dfrac{T}{2}}[/tex]

T = 2t

T = 2(0.247)

T = 0.494 seconds

[tex]\mathbf{T = 2 \pi \sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}}[/tex]

By making the spring constant (k) the subject of the formula:

[tex]\mathbf{\dfrac{T}{2 \pi } = \sqrt{ \dfrac{m}{k}}}[/tex]

[tex]\Big(\dfrac{T}{2 \pi }\Big)^2 = { \dfrac{m}{k}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{T^2}{(2 \pi)^2 }= { \dfrac{m}{k}[/tex]

[tex]\mathsf{ T^2 *k = 2 \pi^2*m} \\ \\ \mathsf{ k = \dfrac{2 \pi^2*m}{T^2}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathsf{ k =\Big( \dfrac{(2 \pi)^2*(51 \times 10^{-3})}{(0.494)^2} \Big) N/m}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{ k =8.25 \ N/m}[/tex]

Therefore, we can conclude that the spring constant between the two 51 g blocks held at a distance 30 cm above a table as a result of instantaneous rest caused by the compression of the spring is 8.25 N/m.

Consider two closely spaced and oppositely charged parallel metal plates. The plates are square with sides of length L and carry charges Q and -Q on their facing surfaces. What is the magnitude of the electric field in the region between the plates

Answers

Answer:

  E_ {total} = [tex]\frac{Q }{L^2 \epsilon_o}[/tex]

Explanation:

In this exercise you are asked to calculate the electric field between two plates, the electric field is a vector

         E_ {total} = E₁ + E₂

         E_ {total} = 2 E

where E₁ and E₂ are the fields of each plate, we have used that for the positively charged plate the field is outgoing and for the negatively charged plate the field is incoming, therefore in the space between the plates for a test charge the two fields point in the same direction

to calculate the field created by a plate let's use Gauss's law

          Ф = ∫ E . dA = q_{int} /ε₀

As a Gaussian surface we use a cylinder with the base parallel to the plate, therefore the direction of the electric field and the normal to the surface are parallel, therefore the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product.

           E 2A = q_{int} / ε₀

where the 2 is due to the surface has two faces

indicate that the surface has a uniform charge for which we can define a surface density

           σ = q_{int} / A

           q_{int} = σ A

we substitute

           E 2A = σ A /ε₀

           E = σ / 2ε₀  

therefore the total field is

           E_ {total} = σ /ε₀

let's substitute the density for the charge of the whole plate

           σ= Q / L²

           

            E_ {total} = [tex]\frac{Q }{L^2 \epsilon_o}[/tex]

Explanation:

For this exercise it must be solved in two parts, the first part we look for the critical angle, for this we use the law of refraction with the angle in the middle of transmission of tea = 90º

        n₁ sin θ₁= n₂ sin  90

        θ₁ = sin⁻¹ [tex]\frac{n_2}{n_1}[/tex]

        θ₁ = sin⁻¹ (1.33 / 1.43)

They indicate that the angle of incidence is half of the critical angle

        θ₃ = 68.4 / 2 = 34.2º

Let's use the law of refraction again

         n₁ sin θ₃ = n₂ sin θ₄

         sin θ₄ = [tex]\frac{n_1}{n_2}[/tex]   sin θ₃

What is meant by a simple pendulum ?

When a point mass is suspended from a fixed support by a light, non-extensible string, the instrument is said to be a simple pendulum.

Here,

Let the mass of the bob be m. The simple pendulum is attached to the fixed support with a string having length l. The pendulum makes an angle of 15° with the vertical from the equilibrium point.

Let T be the tension acting on the string.

As, the bob passes through the angle,

The weight of the bob becomes equal to the vertical component of the tension.

mg = T cos15°

Also, the horizontal component of the tension,

T sin15° = ma

By solving these two equations, we get that,

Acceleration of the simple pendulum,

a = g tan15°

a = 9.8 x 0.267

a = 2.62 m/s²

Hence,

Acceleration of the simple pendulum is 2.62 m/s².
