An ice skater applies a horizontal force to a 150 N block on frictionless, level ice, causing the block to accelerate uniformly at to the right. After the skater
stops pushing the block, it slides onto a region of ice that is covered with a thin layer of sand. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the
sand-covered ice is 0.36.
Calculate the magnitude of the force of friction acting on the block as it slides over the sand-covered ice
Answer:
The friction force has a magnitude of 54 N and points to the left
Explanation:
Friction Force
When an object is moving and encounters friction in the air or rough surfaces, it loses acceleration because the friction force opposes motion.
The friction force when an object is moving on a horizontal surface is calculated by:
[tex]Fr=\mu N[/tex]
Where \mu is the coefficient of static or kinetics friction and N is the normal force.
If no forces other then the weight and the normal are acting upon the y-direction, then the weight and the normal are equal in magnitude:
N = W
Thus, the friction force is:
[tex]Fr=\mu W[/tex]
The ice skater accelerates a block to the right on frictionless horizontal ice and then stops pushing it. The block continues to move at a constant speed when it finds a sand-covered surface with a kinetic coefficient of friction of 0.36.
The friction force is:
Fr=0.36*150
Fr = 54 N
The friction force has a magnitude of 54 N and points to the left
A 5.0-m-diameter merry-go-round is turning with a 3.7 s period. Part A What is the speed of a child on the rim
Answer:
Speed of a child on the rim is 4.25 m/s.
Explanation:
Given;
diameter of the merry-go-round, d = 5.0 m
period of the motion, t = 3.7 s
one complete rotation of the merry-go-round = πd
one complete rotation of the merry-go-round = π(5) = 15.71 m
Speed is given as distance / time
speed of a child on the rim = 15.71 / 3.7
speed of a child on the rim = 4.25 m/s
Therefore, speed of a child on the rim is 4.25 m/s.
What causes the magnetic field around the wire?
Magnetic field
O A. An electric current
O B. An electric field
PREVIOUS
An electric current causes the magnetic field around the wire. The correct answer is A.
The magnetic field around a wire is caused by the flow of electric current through the wire. When an electric current passes through a wire, it generates a magnetic field that forms circular lines of magnetic flux around the wire. This phenomenon is described by Ampere's law, which states that a magnetic field is produced by an electric current and its strength is directly proportional to the magnitude of the current.
The relationship between the electric current and the magnetic field can be understood using the right-hand rule. If you wrap your right hand around the wire with your thumb pointing in the direction of the current, the curled fingers indicate the direction of the magnetic field lines.
Therefore, an electric field is generated by an electric charge, not by an electric current. While an electric field can exist around a wire if there is a potential difference (voltage) applied across it, it is the flow of electric current that primarily generates the magnetic field.

Karen wants to pump up her car tyre.
Her pump has a piston with an area of 7 cm^2
175 N
area = 7 cm^2
Karen pushes the handle down with a force of 175 N.
(a)
What pressure does she exert on the air in the pump?
Answer:
250000Pa
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Force applied = 175N
Area = 7cm²
Unknown:
Pressure exerted by the air in the pump = ?
Solution:
Pressure is the force per unit area acting on a body;
Pressure = [tex]\frac{force }{area}[/tex]
Area = 7cm² ;
10000cm² = 1m²
7cm² is 7 x 10⁻⁴m²
Pressure = [tex]\frac{175}{0.0007}[/tex] = 250000Pa
1. On a force vs. mass graph, what would be the slope of the line?
2. On a Free Body Diagram, if the forces are all balanced, what do you know about the
object? Can it be moving?
1. By Newton's second law,
F = m a
so the slope of the line would represent the mass of the object.
2. If all the forces are balanced, then the object is in equilibrium with zero net force, which in turn means the object is not accelerating. So the object is either motionless or moving at a constant speed.

Starting with the definitions of momentum and kinetic energy, derive an equation for the kinetic energy of a particle expressed as a function of its momentum.
Answer:
[tex]K.E = (\frac{1}{2})Pv[/tex]
Explanation:
The momentum of a particle is defined as the product of its mass and velocity:
[tex]P = mv[/tex] -------------------- equation (1)
where,
P = momentum of the particle
m = mass of the particle
v = velocity of the particle
The kinetic energy of the particle is given as follows:
[tex]K.E = (\frac{1}{2})mv^2\\\\K.E = (\frac{1}{2})v(mv)[/tex]
using equation (1), we get:
[tex]K.E = (\frac{1}{2})Pv[/tex]

a 16-slug mass is raised by 10 ft. the PE of the mass increased by?
Answer:
The PE of the mass increased by 6,972.95 J
Explanation:
Gravitational Potential Energy
It's the energy stored in an object because of its vertical position or height in a gravitational field.
It can be calculated with the equation:
U=m.g.h
Where m is the mass of the object, h is the height with respect to a fixed reference, and g is the acceleration of gravity or 9.8 m/s^2.
We are given the mass of m=16 slug raised by a height h=10 ft. Both units will be converted to SI standard:
1 slug = 14.59 Kg, thus
16 slug = 16*14.59 Kg=233.44 Kg
1 ft = 0.3048 m, thus:
10 ft = 10*0.3048 m = 3.048 m
Thus, the PE of the mass increased by:
U = 233.44 * 9.8 * 3.048 = 6,972.95 J
the PE of the mass increased by 6,972.95 J
The potential energy will be "5120 ft.lb".
According to the question,
Mass,
m = 16 slugsHeight,
h = 10 ftAs we know the formula,
→ [tex]U = mgh[/tex]
By substituting the values, we get
→ [tex]= 16\times 32\times 10[/tex]
→ [tex]= 5120 \ ft.lb[/tex]
Thus the response above is correct.

Explanation:
An object with mass 3.3 kg is executing simple harmonic motion, attached to a spring with spring constant 260 N/m . When the object is 0.017 m from its equilibrium position, it is moving with a speed of 0.40 m/s . Part A Calculate the amplitude of the motion. Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
Answer: the amplitude of the motion is 0.048 m
Explanation:
Given that;
mass m = 3.3 kg
spring constant k = 260 N/m
When the object is x = 0.017 m from its equilibrium position,
it is moving with a speed of v = 0.40 m/s
amplitude of the motion = ?
we know that;
formula for Potential of the string PE = 1/2kx²------1
Kinetic energy KE = 1/2mv² --------2
Now expression for the maximum potential energy of the spring is
PE_max = 1/2 kx²_max -----3
Now from conservation of Energy
PE_spring = PE + KE
from our equation 1, 2 and 3
1/2kx²_max = 1/2kx² + 1/2mv²
now we rearrange for x_max
x²_max = (1/2kx² + 1/2mv²) / 1/2k
x²_max = (kx² + mv²) / k
x_max = √ [(kx² + mv²) / k]
now we substitute our values into the equation
x_max = √ [(260(0.017)² + 3.3×(0.40)²) / 260]
= √((0.07514 + 0.528) / 260)
= √(0.60314 / 260)
= √ 0.002319
x_max = 0.048 m
Therefore the amplitude of the motion is 0.048 m
What fraction of an iceberg is submerged? (ρice = 917 kg/m3, ,ρsea = 1030 kg/m3.)
Answer:
Choice d. Approximately [tex]89\%[/tex] of the volume of this iceberg would be submerged.
Explanation:
Let [tex]V_\text{ice}[/tex] denote the total volume of this iceberg. Let [tex]V_\text{submerged}[/tex] denote the volume of the portion that is under the liquid.
The mass of that iceberg would be [tex]\rho_\text{ice} \cdot V_\text{ice}[/tex]. Let [tex]g[/tex] denote the gravitational field strength ([tex]g \approx 9.81\; \rm N \cdot kg^{-1}[/tex] near the surface of the earth.) The weight of that iceberg would be: [tex]\rho_\text{ice} \cdot V_\text{ice} \cdot g[/tex].
If the iceberg is going to be lifted out of the sea, it would take water with volume [tex]V_\text{submerged}[/tex] to fill the space that the iceberg has previously taken. The mass of that much sea water would be [tex]\rho_\text{sea} \cdot V_\text{submerged}[/tex].
Archimedes' Principle suggests that the weight of that much water will be exactly equal to the buoyancy on the iceberg. By Archimedes' Principle:
[tex]\text{buoyancy} = \rho_\text{sea} \cdot V_\text{submerged} \cdot g[/tex].
The buoyancy on the iceberg should balance the weight of this iceberg. In other words:
[tex]\underbrace{\rho_\text{ice} \cdot V_\text{ice} \cdot g}_\text{weight of iceberg} = \underbrace{\rho_\text{sea} \cdot V_\text{submerged} \cdot g}_\text{buoyancy on iceberg}[/tex].
Rearrange this equation to find the ratio between [tex]V_\text{submerged}[/tex] and [tex]V_\text{ice}[/tex]:
[tex]\begin{aligned} &\frac{V_\text{submerged}}{V_\text{ice}} \\&= \frac{\rho_\text{ice} \cdot g}{\rho_\text{sea} \cdot g}\\ &= \frac{\rho_\text{ice}}{\rho_\text{sea}}\ = \frac{917\; \rm kg \cdot m^{-3}}{1030\; \rm kg \cdot m^{-3}} \approx 0.89 \end{aligned}[/tex].
In other words, [tex]89\%[/tex] of the volume of this iceberg would have been submerged for buoyancy to balance the weight of this iceberg.

When a tennis ball is spun around in a circle on a string and the string breaks the tennis ball
will be pulled in a curved path away from the center because of Centrifugal force
True or false
Answer:
False
whenever the string breaks, the ball will follow the straight line tangential path
Explanation:
No, the ball will not follow a curved path after the string breaks. Since, the the direction of velocity is tangential to each point of the circular motion. Therefore, it changes at every point. This produces an acceleration in the circle called centripetal acceleration. There is also a tangential component of acceleration acting on the ball during this motion.
So, whenever the string breaks, the ball will follow the straight line tangential path. Hence, the given statement is false.

Max observes a spaceship traveling toward him at 0.75c. He measures its length and finds that the spaceship is 250 m long. The ship brakes hard and skids to a stop on a nearby airstrip. Max remeasures the spaceship. What length does he find
Answer:
380m
Explanation:
We have the speed of the spaceship v = 0.75c
Max measures contracted length L of the spaceship as it travels
We have been given L = 250m
As this ship stops he is going to get exact length of the ship = Lol
We solve using this formula
L = Lo√ 1-v²/c²
From the formula above we make Lo subject of the formula
When we input values
Lo = 250/√1-(0.75c/c)²
= 250/√1-(0.75)²
= 250/√0.4375
= 250/0.6614

what is the velocity of this graph between points b and c
Answer:
D.) 0 m/s
Explanation:
This is a position versus time graph. These graphs compare the position of an object versus the elapsed time. You can find the velocity of position vs. time graphs by determining the slope between the two points.
The formula used to find slope is:
y₁ - y₂ = m(x₁ - x₂)
In this formula, "x₁" and "y₁" represent the values from one point, "x₂" and "y₂" represent the values from the second point, and "m" represents the slope.
If the first point, B, is at (1, 6) and the second point, C, is at (3, 6)...
6 - 6 = m(1 - 3) <----- Insert values from points
0 = m(-2) <----- Subtract
0 = m <----- Divide both sides by -2
In this case, the slope between point B and point C is 0. Thus, there is a constant velocity of 0 m/s between the points.
A 125 g pendulum bob hung on a string of length 35 cm has the same period as when the bob is hung from a spring and caused to oscillate. What is the spring’s elastic constant?a) 3.5 N/mb) 5.2 N/mc) 1.9 N/md) 27 N/m
Answer:
k = 3.5 N/m
Explanation:
It is given that the time period the bob in pendulum is the same as its time period in spring mass system:
[tex]Time\ Period\ of\ Pendulum = Time\ Period\ of\ Spring-Mass\ System\\2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}} = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{l}{g} = \frac{m}{k}\\\\ k = g\frac{m}{l}[/tex]
where,
k = spring constant = ?
g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²
m = mass of bob = 125 g = 0.125 kg
l = length of pendulum = 35 cm = 0.35 m
Therefore,
[tex]k = (9.81\ m/s^2)(\frac{0.125\ kg}{0.35\ m})\\\\[/tex]
k = 3.5 N/m
What do you mean by pressure of a liquid? Write its Sl unit.
Answer:
Explanation:
The pressure of a liquid is the rate of the force applied by the liquid on a surface per unit area of the surface.
i.e P = [tex]\frac{F}{A}[/tex]
where P is the pressure, F is the force and A is the area.
The depth of the liquid determines its pressure at a definite lower point. As the pressure of a liquid at the bottom of a its container is greater than the pressure at the top of the liquid.
Thus,
P = σhg
where P is the pressure, σ is the density of the liquid, h is the height and g is the force of gravity.
It is measured in Pascals or N[tex]m^{-2}[/tex].
The pressure of liquid has a lot of applications, viz: siphon, force pump, lift pump etc.
A monatomic ideal gas with volume 0.230 L is rapidly compressed, so the process can be considered adiabatic. If the gas is initially at 1.01 105 Pa and 3.00 102 K and the final temperature is 489 K, find the work done by the gas on the environment, Wenv.
Answer:
The value is [tex]W = - 17.53 \ J[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The volume is [tex]V = 0.230 \ L = 0.230 *10^{-3} \ m^{-3}[/tex]
The initial pressure is [tex]P_1 = 1.01105 \ Pa[/tex]
The initial temperature is [tex]T_1 = 3.00*10^2 \ K[/tex]
The final temperature is [tex]T_2 = 489 \ K[/tex]
Generally for an adiabatic process the workdone is mathematically represented as
[tex]W = - \Delta U[/tex]
Here [tex]\Delta U[/tex] is the internal energy of the system which is mathematically represented as
[tex]\Delta U = \frac{3}{2} * nR \Delta T[/tex]
So
[tex]W = - \frac{3}{2} * nR \Delta T[/tex]
Generally from ideal gas equation we have that
[tex]n = \frac{P_1V }{ RT_1 }[/tex]
Here R is the gas constant with value [tex]R = 8.314 J/mol\cdot K[/tex]
So
[tex]n = \frac{1.01 *0^{5} * 0.230 *10^{-3}}{ 8.314 * 3.0*10^2 }[/tex]
=> [tex]n = 0.009313 \ mol[/tex]
So
[tex]W = - \frac{3}{2} * 0.009313 * 8.314 * (451 - 3.00*10^2)[/tex]
=> [tex]W = - 17.53 \ J[/tex]
