A pulley in the shape of a solid cylinder of mass 1.50 kg and radius 0.240 m is free to rotate around a horizontal shaft along t

he axis of the pulley. There is friction between the pulley and this shaft. A light, nonstretching cable is wrapped around the pulley, and the free end is tied to a 2.00 kg textbook. You release the textbook from rest a distance 0.900 m above the floor. Just before the textbook hits the floor, the angular speed of the pulley is 10.0 rad/s.

Answer:

the speed the textbook reaches just before landing is 2.4 m/s

Explanation:

  Given the parameters in the question;

pulley mass = 1.50 kg

pulley radius = 0.240 m

textbook mass = 2.0 kg

height from which the textbook is released = 0.9 m

angular speed of the pulley = 10.0 rad/s

the speed of the textbook just before it touches the ground =?

the speed of the textbook v = angular speed of the pulley × radius of pulley

substituting gives us

v = 10.0 rad/s × 0.240 m

v = 2.4 m/s

Thus, the speed of the textbook upon impact with the floor is 2.4 m/s

Wire A has the same length and twice the radius of wire B. Both wires are made of the same material and carry the same current.
serg [3582]

Answer:

V_A= \frac{I_A}{n_A e A_A}= \frac{I}{ne 4A_B}= \frac{1}{4} \frac{I}{neA_B}

V_B= \frac{I_B}{n_B e A_B}= \frac{I}{ne A_B}

Consequently, we find that:

V_A = \frac{1}{4} V_B

Thus, the most suitable answer would be:

a. vA = vB/4

Explanation:

In this situation, we can establish the following conditions:

L_A = L_B =L both wires share the same length

both wires carry an identical currentI_A = I_B =I

Both wires are constructed of the same material, indicating that the electron density (n) remains constant across both wires

n_A = n_B =n

We also know that r_A = 2 r_B where r signifies the radius.

Given that wires are cylindrical in shape, we can determine the area for each case:

A_A= \pi r^2_A = \pi (2r_B)^2 = 4 \pi r^2_B= 4 A_B

A_B = \pi r^2_B

Thus, we conclude that

A_A = 4 A_B

Now we are aware that the drift velocity of an electron in a wire can be described by:

v_d = \frac{I}{neA}

Where I denotes the current, n is the electron density, e represents the electron charge, and A signifies the area.

By substituting, we arrive at:

V_A= \frac{I_A}{n_A e A_A}= \frac{I}{ne 4A_B}= \frac{1}{4} \frac{I}{neA_B}

V_B= \frac{I_B}{n_B e A_B}= \frac{I}{ne A_B}

So we observe that:

V_A = \frac{1}{4} V_B

Thus, the most fitting answer is:

a. vA = vB/4

Two electrodes, separated by a distance d, in a vacuum are maintained at a constant potential difference. An electron, accelerat
Yuliya22 [3333]

Answer:

Explanation:

The distance between the electrodes is denoted as d.

The kinetic energy of the electron is represented as Ek when the electrodes are positioned at a distance of "d" apart.

Our goal is to determine the kinetic energy when they are separated by a distance of d/3.

K.E = ½mv²

It’s important to note that the mass remains constant; only velocity varies.

Additionally,

K.E = Work done by the electron

K.E = F × d

K.E = W = ma × d

Assuming constant acceleration

Hence, m and a are fixed,

therefore,

K.E is directly related to d

Thus, as d increases, K.E increases, and conversely, when d decreases, K.E decreases.

Consequently,

K.E_1 / d_1 = K.E_2 / d_2

With K.E_1 equating to E_k

and d_1 being d

while d_2 is represented as d/3

This leads to K.E_2 = K.E_1 / d_1 × d_2

Thus, K.E_2 = E_k × ⅓d / d

Finally,

K.E_2 = ⅓E_k

Therefore, the resultant kinetic energy is one third of the original E_k

(a) Calculate the absolute pressure at the bottom of a fresh- water lake at a depth of 27.5 m. Assume the density of the water i
kicyunya [3294]

Response:

a) P = 370.993\,kPa, b) F = 25.948\,kN

Clarification:

a) The absolute pressure at a depth of 27.5 meters is:

P = P_{atm} + P_{man}

P = 101.3\,kPa + \left(1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}\right)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (27.5\,m)\cdot \left(\frac{1\,kPa}{1000\,Pa} \right)

P = 370.993\,kPa

b) The force applied by the water is:

F = (P - P_{atm})\cdot A

F = (370.993\,kPa-101.3\,kPa)\cdot \left(\frac{\pi}{4} \right)\cdot (0.35\,m)^{2}

F = 25.948\,kN

An electric toaster is rated 1200 watts at 120 volts. what is the total electrical energy used to operate the toaster for 30 sec
Yuliya22 [3333]
Energy can be determined using the formula power multiplied by time, thus for a power of 1200 W (or 1200 Joules per second) and a duration of 30 seconds, the calculation yields 36000 J or 36 kJ of electrical energy.

If you need the electrical charge or current: Power equals voltage times current. Therefore, with a power of 1200 watts and a voltage of 120 V, the current can be found as 1200 W divided by 120 V, which results in 10 Amperes. The charge is obtained by multiplying 10 A by 30 s, yielding 300 C.
