A rope connects boat A to boat B. Boat A starts from rest and accelerates to a speed of 9.5 m/s in a time t = 47 s. The mass of

boat B is 540 kg. Assuming a constant frictional force of 230 N acts on boat B, what is the magnitude of the tension in the rope that connects the boats during the time that boat A is accelerating?

Answer: 339.148N

Explanation:

Given data:

Time (t) = 47s

Initial speed (U) = 0m/s

Final speed (V) = 9.5m/s

Mass of B = 540kg

Frictional force on B = 230N

Since both boats are linked, movement of A causes B to move as well.

What is the acceleration of boat A?

Applying the motion formula:

V = u + at

9.5 = 0 + a * 47

a = 9.5 / 47

a = 0.2021 m/s²

To determine the force necessary to accelerate boat B, as both boats experience the same force:

F = Mass * acceleration

F = 540 * 0.2021 = 109.14N

Given that there is a frictional force of 230N acting on boat B, the overall force (Tension) becomes:

Tension = frictional force + applied force = (109.14 + 230)N = 339.148N

A square loop of wire with initial side length 10 cm is placed in a magnetic field of strength 1 T. The field is parallel to the
kicyunya [3294]

Answer:

Induced EMF is 2 x 10⁻³ volts

Explanation:

B = strength of the magnetic field aligning with the loop's axis = 1 T

\frac{dA}{dt} = area change rate of the loop = 20 cm²/s = 20 x 10⁻⁴ m²

θ = the angle formed by the magnetic field and area vector = 0

E = the induced EMF across the loop

EMF can be calculated using the formula

E = B \frac{dA}{dt}

E = (1) (20 x 10⁻⁴ )

E = 2 x 10⁻³ volts

E = 2 mV

A baseball is hit high into the upper bleachers of left field. Over its entire flight the work done by gravity and the work done
serg [3582]

Answer:

Explanation:

As the baseball ascends, gravitational forces as well as air resistance act downward, whereas the displacement is moving upward which results in an angle of 180° between the force and displacement. Therefore, the work done by both the gravitational force and air resistance is negative, confirming option (d) as accurate.

A single resistor is connected across the terminals of a battery. Which one or more of the following changes in voltage and curr
Maru [3345]

Answer:

Every option provided is accurate

Explanation:

The electrical power dissipated by a single resistor linked to a battery can be expressed as:

P=VI = I^2 R=\frac{V^2}{R}

where

V signifies the voltage

I denotes the current

R represents the resistance

Now, let's evaluate each scenario:

A) When the voltage is doubled (V'=2V) while the current is halved (I'=I/2), the resulting power dissipation turns out to be:

P'=V'I'=(2V)(\frac{I}{2})=VI=P --> the power remains the same

B) When the voltage is increased to double (V'=2V) and the resistance quadruples (R'=4R), the new power dissipation becomes:

P'=\frac{V'^2}{R'}=\frac{(2V)^2}{4R}=\frac{V^2}{R} --> the power is unchanged

C) If the current is doubled (I'=2I) while the resistance diminishes to one-fourth (R'=R/4), the new power dissipation is:

P'=I'^2 R'=(2I)^2(\frac{R}{4})=I^2 R --> the power is unchanged

Softa [3030]

Answer:

a) ∆x∆v = 5.78*10^-5

∆v = 1157.08 m/s

b) 4.32*10^{-11}

Explanation:

This problem can be addressed using Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, which is expressed as:

\Delta x\Delta p \geq \frac{\hbar}{2}

Where h represents Planck’s constant (6.62*10^-34 J s).

Assuming that the electron's mass remains the same, we proceed as follows:

\Delta x \Delta (m_ev)=m_e\Delta x\Delta v \geq \frac{\hbar}{2}

Utilizing the electron's mass (9.61*10^-31 kg) and the uncertainty in position (50 nm), we can compute ∆x∆v and ∆v:

\Delta x \Delta v\geq\frac{\hbar}{2m_e}=\frac{(1.055*10^{-34}Js)}{2(9.1*10^{-31}kg)}=5.78*10^{-5}\ m^2/s

\Delta v\geq\frac{5.78*10^{-5}}{50*10^{-9}m}=1157.08\frac{m}{s}

If we treat the electron like a classic particle, the time required to cross the channel is determined using the upper limit of the uncertainty in velocity:

t=\frac{x}{v}=\frac{50*10^{-9}m}{1157.08m/s}=4.32*10^{-11}s
