Answer:

Explanation:

The velocity ratio of  a wheel and axle is the ratio of the radius (R) of the wheel to the radius (r) of the axle. It is expressed as;

VR = R/r

Since radius = diameter/2

VR = (D/2)/(d/2)

VR = D/d

D is the diameter of the wheel and 'd' is the diameter of the axle.

Given VR = 3 and d = 5cm

3 = D/5

D = 15 cm

If the diameter of the wheel is 15cm, the radius of the wheel will be 15/2 = 7.5cm.

b) Workdone by the load = Load * distance moved by load

Given load = 60kg

Distance moved by load = 2π*radius of axle

Distance moved by load  = 2π(0.025) = 0.157

workdone by load = 60* 0.157 = 9.42J

Effort = Workdone by load/distance moved by the wheel

Effort = 9.42/2π(0.075)

Effort = 9.42/0.471

Effort = 20kg

Hence the effort applied is 20kg

c) MA = Load/Effort

MA = 60/20

MA = 3

d) Efficiency = MA/VR * 100%

Efficiency = 3/3 * 100%

Efficiency = 100%

i) A 100 W and 60 W bulb are joined in series and connected to the mains. Which bulb will glow brighter? Why? ii) A 100 W and a 60 W bulb are joined in parallel to the mains. Which bulb will glow brighter? Why?

Answers

Answer:

i) 60 W

ii) 100 W

Explanation:

In each case, the bulb that dissipates the most power is the bulb that glows brighter.  Power is voltage times current (P = VI).  Using Ohm's law, we can rewrite this as P = I²R or P = V²/R.

Bulbs are rated at a certain power for a certain voltage.  P = V²/R, so the bulb with the lower resistance will have the higher power rating.  Therefore, the 100 W bulb has a lower resistance than the 60 W bulb.

i) They are in series, so they have the same current.  P = I²R, so the bulb with the higher resistance will glow brighter.  That's the 60 W bulb.

ii) They are in parallel, so they have the same voltage.  P = V²/R, so the bulb with the lower resistance will glow brighter.  That's the 100 W bulb.

The ways to measure the mass and volume of irregular object​

Answers

Answer:

When we have irregular objects, it may become very hard to calculate the volume of the object, as we actually can not use any simple equation to find it.

The mass is less tricky, just find a scale and wheight it, now we know the mass of the irregular object.

One way to measure the volume of the object is using water... how we do it?

Get some recipient with water, measure the height of the water.

Introduce your object into the water and totally submerge it, now the level of the water will rise. This is because as you introduce the object under the water, you are displacing up a given volume of water that has the same volume as the irregular object.

Now that you know the height of the water before and after you put your object, you can easily calculate the volume of water displaced, and that will be the volume of the object (the tricky part may be totally submerging the object if, for example, is wood and it floats, here you can use a thin wire to push it down but it will affect a little bit the measures.)

Distinguish between concave mirror and convex mirror ​

Answers

Answer:

Concave mirror makes someone looking at it look dwarf or short, while convex mirror stretches the person making the person look weird.

If an object floats, the volume of the displaced water is equal to the volume of the whole object. True or false?

True

For an example:

If you have a drink without a lid in a car and a car suddently the car stop, u will automatically try to catch the drink preventing it from spilling. This is because that the drink that was in motion with the car want to stay in motion, but when the car stop, the drink still wanna be in motion, that's why it will be flying off and spill if u don't catch it.

Answers

Explanation:

It is given that,

The Displacement x of particle moving in one dimension under the action of constant force is related to the time by equation as:

[tex]x=4t^3+3t^2-5t+2[/tex]

Where,

x is in meters and t is in sec

We know that,

Velocity,

[tex]v=\dfrac{dx}{dt}\\\\v=\dfrac{d(4t^3+3t^2-5t+2)}{dt}\\\\v=12t^2+6t-5[/tex]

(a) i. t = 2 s

[tex]v=12(2)^2+6(2)-5=55\ m/s[/tex]

At t = 4 s

[tex]v=12(4)^2+6(4)-5=211\ m/s[/tex]

(b) Acceleration,

[tex]a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}\\\\a=\dfrac{d(12t^2+6t-5)}{dt}\\\\a=24t+6[/tex]

A balloon is ascending at the rate of 4.9 m/s. A packet is dropped from from the balloon when situated at a height of 100m.
How long does it take the packet to reach the ground ?
What is it's final velocity ?

Answers

Answer:

t = 5.04secsv = -44.49m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters

initial velocity u = 4.9m/s

height of drop H = 100m

acceleration due to gravity g = -9.8m/s²(since the body is ascending i.e moving against gravity)

Required

time taken by the packet to reach the ground 't'

Using the equation of motion

S = ut+1/2gt²

0-100 = 4.9t+1/2(-9.8)t²

-100 = 4.9t-1/2(9.8)t²

-100 = 4.9t-4.9t²

4.9t-4.9t² +100 = 0

4.9t²-4.9t² -100 = 0

Multiplying through by 10

49t²-49t-1000 = 0

Using the general equation t = (-b±√b²-4ac)/2a

t = -(-49)±√(-49)²-4(49)(-1000)/2(49)

t = 49±√(2401+196000)/2(49)

t = 49±√(198401)/98

t = 49±√(198401)/98

t = 49±449.42/98

t = (49+449.42)/98

t = 494.42/98

t = 5.04secs

Hence, it took the packet 5.04secs to reach the ground

The final velocity is calculated using the formula v = u + at

v = u-gt

v = 4.9-(9.8)(5.04)

v = 4.9-49.392

v = -44.492m/s

This shows that the final velocity is 44.49m/s(moving downwards)

When the hydraulic conductivity Ks = 10 mm/hr; effective matrix potential Ns = 20 mm, and rainfall intensity I = 30 mm/hr , determine the amount of runoff generated when the runoff rate reaches 15 mm/hr?( 2.7 mm or 0.21 mm or 18 mm or 0.67 mm)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]t = 0.75 \ hr = 0.75 *60 = 45 \ minutes[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  hydraulic conductivity is  [tex]Ks = 10\ mm/hr[/tex]

    The  effective matrix potential [tex]Ns = 20 \ mm[/tex]

    The  intensity of  rainfall is  [tex]I = 30 \ mm/hr[/tex]

    The runoff rate [tex]R = 15 \ mm/hr[/tex]

Generally the run off rate is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]R = (I - Ks) t[/tex]

Here t is the amount of runoff generated

=>   [tex]15 = (30 - 10) t[/tex]

=>  [tex]t = 0.75 \ hr[/tex]

converting to minutes

    [tex]t = 0.75 \ hr = 0.75 *60 = 45 \ minutes[/tex]

Explanation:

ΔS = ΔQ/T

Where ΔS = entropy change

Q = quantity of heat

T = temperature

First reservoir :

T = –30°C = - 30 + 273 = 243K

Q = 400 J

Second reservoir :

T = 0°C = 273K

Q =?

To have same increase in entropy for both reservoirs :

Q/T of first reservoir = Q/T of second reservoir

400/243 = Q/273

243 * Q = 400 * 273

Q = (400 * 273) / 243

Q = 109,200 / 243

Q = 449.38271

Q = 449.38 J

(a) Calculate her acceleration during the slide.
(b) How long (in time) does she slide until she stops?

Answers

a) Her acceleration during the slide is -6.67 m/s².

b) She slides 1.03 seconds until she stops.

a) We can find her acceleration during the slide with Newton's second law:

[tex] F = ma [/tex]                        

Where:

F: is the force    

m: is the mass = 92.45 kg

a: is the acceleration =?

The force acting on the baseball player is equal to the friction force ([tex]F_{\mu}[/tex]), and it is negative because it is in the opposite direction to the motion:

[tex] -\mu N = ma [/tex]

[tex] -\mu mg = ma [/tex]

[tex] a = -\mu g [/tex]

Where:

N: is the normal force = mg

μ: is the coefficient of kinetic firction = 0.68

g: is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Hence, her acceleration during the slide is:

[tex] a = -0.68*9.81 m/s^{2} = -6.67 m/s^{2} [/tex]

b) We can calculate how long does she slide until she stops with the following kinematic equation:

[tex] v_{f} = v_{0} + at [/tex]

Where:

[tex] v_{f} [/tex]: is the final speed = 0 (when she stops)

[tex] v_{0} [/tex]: is the initial speed = 6.87 m/s

t: is the time =?

Then, the time is:

[tex] t = -\frac{v_{0}}{a} = -\frac{6.87 m/s}{-6.67 m/s^{2}} = 1.03 s [/tex]

The glacier will move 976.8 cm when it advances at 7.4 7.4×10⁻⁶ cm/s in 4.2 y

From the question above when we talk about how far, is still the same as distance.

Applying the equation of velocity,

V = d/t................... Equation 1

Where V = velocity, d = distance, t = time

make d the subject of equation 1

From the question,

Given: V = 7.4×10⁻⁶ cm/s, t = 4.2 year = (4.2×3.154×10⁷) seconds = 1.32×10⁸ seconds

Substitute these values into equation 2

d = (7.4×10⁻⁶)(1.32×10⁸)

A drone has been designed that can do monitoring and surveillance at considerable heights due to its light weight of 0.800 kg. For this purpose, they are doing a test to determine its maximum height and they make it start in a vertical direction, using its thrusters it manages to achieve a thrust of 35.0 N during the first 6.00 s. until the battery runs out. What was the maximum height that the drone reached?

Answers

Answer:

2660 m

Explanation:

Sum of the forces in the first 6.00 s:

∑F = ma

F − mg = ma

35.0 N − (0.800 kg) (10 m/s²) = (0.800 kg) a

a = 33.75 m/s²

The height it reaches during this time is:

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δy = (0 m/s) (6.00 s) + ½ (33.75 m/s²) (6.00 s)²

Δy = 607.5 m

The velocity it reaches is:

v = at + v₀

v = (33.75 m/s²) (6.00 s) + 0 m/s

v = 202.5 m/s

After the battery runs out, the drone is in free fall.  At the highest point, the velocity is 0.  The height at this point is:

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

(0 m/s)² = (202.5 m/s)² + 2 (-10 m/s²) (h − 607.5)

h ≈ 2660 m

Because the neutron has no charge, its mass must be found in some way other than by using a mass spectrometer.

The masses of the proton and the deuteron are 1.007 276 467 u and 2.013 553 212 u, respectively. Based on this data, what is the mass of the neutron

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Energy of gamma ray = 2.2233 MeV

Let mass of neutron be n  amu  

mass defect of deuteron = 2.013553212 - ( 1.007 276 467 + n ) u .

in terms of energy this mass defect will be equal to energy of gamma ray

1 amu = 931 MeV

931 [ 2.013553212 - ( 1.007 276 467 + n ) ] =  2.2233

( 1.007 276 467 + n ) -  2.013553212  = .00238807733

n = 1.008664822 amu
