Answer:

The buoyant force acting on the block from the water is 10 N

Explanation:

The buoyant force (F_B) experienced by a block is defined as the difference between its actual weight in air and its weight when submerged in water.

The data provided indicates:

A metal block weighs 40 N in air and 30 N in water.

Thus, F_B = 40 - 30 = 10 N

therefore,  the buoyant force acting on the block from the water amounts to 10 N

Answer:

The buoyant force is 10 N

Explanation:

We have the information that

The weight of the metal block in air is 40 N

The real weight of the object corresponds to the weight in air

The true weight of the metal block is 40 N

Its apparent weight while submerged in water is

The weight of the block in water amounts to 30 N

The apparent weight of the block is 30 N

Water density is 1000 kg / cubic meter

We are to determine the buoyant force acting on the block due to water.

The buoyant force is established as the difference between the actual weight and the apparent weight

Hence, the buoyant force on the block due to the water is computed as 40 - 30 = 10 N

Thus, the buoyant force acting on the block from the water equals 10 N

Sav [3153]
It is stated that, in a typical pulsed-field machine, the magnetic field rises from 0 T to 2.5 T within 200 μs. The change in the magnetic field and time interval are relevant here. The diameter is 2.3 cm, translating to a radius of 0.0115 m. As the magnetic field changes, an induced emf occurs within the ring, determined by: E = 5.19 volts. Thus, the induced emf in the ring equates to 5.19 volts, which is the sought solution.

Charge is placed on two conducting spheres that are very far apart and connected by a long thin wire. The radius of the smaller
Softa [3030]

Answer:

σ₁ = 3.167 * 10^{-6} C/m²

σ₂ = 7.6 * 10 ^{-6}  C/m²

Explanation:

Provided Information:

i) Smaller sphere's radius ( r ) = 5 cm.

ii) Larger sphere's radius ( R ) = 12 cm.

iii) Electric field at the larger sphere's surface  ( E₁ ) = 358 kV/m, which is equivalent to 358 * 1000 v/m

E_{1} = (\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon }) (\frac{Q_{1} }{R^{2} } )

358000 = 9 * 10^{9 } *\frac{Q_{1} }{0.12^{2} }

Charge (Q₁) = 572.8 * 10^{-9} C

Since the electric field inside a conductor is zero, the electric potential ( V ) remains constant.

V = constant

∴\frac{Q_{1} }{R} = \frac{Q_{2} }{r}

Q_{2} = \frac{r}{R} *Q_{1}

Q_{2} = \frac{5}{12} *572.8*10^{-9}   = 238.666 *10^{-9} C

Surface charge density ( σ₁ ) for the larger sphere.

Calculated Area ( A₁ )  = 4 * π * R²  = 4 * 3.14 * 0.12 = 0.180864 m².

σ₁  = \frac{Q_{1} }{A_{1} } = \frac{572.8 *10^{-9} }{0.180864} = 3.167 * 10^{-6}  C/m².

Surface charge density ( σ₂ ) for the smaller sphere.

Calculated Area ( A₂ )  = 4 * π * r²  = 4 * 3.14 * 0.05²  = 0.0314 m².

σ₂ =\frac{Q_{2} }{A_{2} } = \frac{238.66 *10^{-9} }{0.0314} = 7.6 * 10 ^{-6} C/m²

To study torque experimentally, you apply a force to a beam. One end of the beam is attached to a pivot that allows the beam to
kicyunya [3294]

Answer:

a)  τ = i ^ (y F_{z} - z F_{y}) + j ^ (z Fₓ - x F_{z}) + k ^ (x F_{y} - y Fₓ)

b) τ = (-0.189i ^ -5.6 j ^ + 33.978k ^) N m

c) α = (-7.8 10⁻⁴ i ^ - 2.3 10⁻² j ^ + 1.4 10⁻¹ k ^) rad / s²

Explanation:

a) The torque can be expressed as

        τ = r x F

To tackle this equation, using the determinant approach is the most straightforward method

        \tau =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\x&y&z\\F_{x}&F_{y} &F_{z}\end{array}\right]  

The resulting expression is

      τ = i ^ (y F_{z} - z F_{y}) + j ^ (z Fₓ - x F_{z}) + k ^ (x F_{y} - y Fₓ)

b) Now let's compute

     τ = i ^ (0.075 1.4 -0.035 8.4) + j ^ (0.035 2.8 - 4.07 1.4) + k ^ (4.07 8.4 - 0.075 2.8)

     τ = i ^ (- 0.189) + j ^ (-5.6) + k ^ (33,978)

     τ = (-0.189i ^ -5.6 j ^ + 33.978k ^) N m

c) To find angular acceleration, we use

       τ = I α

       α = τ / I

The moment of inertia being a scalar means that only the magnitude of each component changes, orientation remains constant.

           

     α = (-0.189i^  -5.6 j^  + 33.978k^) / 241

     α = (-7.8 10⁻⁴ i ^ - 2.3 10⁻² j ^ + 1.4 10⁻¹ k ^) rad / s²
