What is a solenoid?

A coil of wire that carries an electric current is a solenoid. A solenoid is an electromagnet formed by a helical coil of wire. Which generates a magnetic field when an electric current is passed through the coil .

A solenoid is a form of coil that produces a magnetic field when the electric current is passed through it. A solenoid is created when a conductive wire is used to make a loop.

Use your understanding of the magnetic field's form to determine the direction of the magnetic field along the middle of the solenoid.

Because the current wraps around the core of the solenoid in this scenario, it may be controlled with your fingertips. It goes with your thumb since the magnetic field is straight down the inside.

Which would take more force to stop in 10 seconds: an 8.0-kilogram ball rolling in a straight line at a speed of 0.2 m/sec or a 5.0-kilogram ball rolling along the same path at a speed of 1.0 m/sec?​

Answers

Answer:

Higher force would be required to stop 5 kg of ball

Explanation:

The force required to stop a moving object depends on its momentum.

The momentum for 8 kg of rolling ball is = 8 kg * 0.2 m/s = 1.6 kgm/s

The momentum for 5 kg of rolling ball is = 8 kg * 1.0 m/s = 5 kgm/s

Hence, momentum of 5 Kg ball is higher than the momentum of 8 Kg of ball

Hence, higher force would be required to stop 5 kg of ball

a. 45.92m/s
b. 47.85 m
c. 58.2 seconds
d. 35.85 m/s/s

Answers

This is a classic case of 'velocity components.'

Imagine a vector for velocity. Now, consider that this vector could be the hypotenuse of a right triangle, with two other sides going along the x and y-axis. These sides of the triangle will have values, and adding them up using the pythagorean theorem will prove that the sum of their squares equals the square of the original vector.

Well, okay, that's nice and all, you may be saying - but how do we solve the actual question?

Let's apply this thought to the question. This vector can have both an x component and y component (essentially, parts of the vector that travel along the x and y-axis).

Now, what could these components be? We know that the stone is thrown perfectly horizontally, meaning that the x-component is quite literally the velocity.

How about the y-component? Since it's thrown at a perfect horizontal, there isn't really any vertical velocity whatsoever. There's only horizontal velocity.

"Great, fantastic! So, what's the importance of figuring out the horizontal and vertical velocities?"

When a stone is in free fall, it experiences a gravitational acceleration. This acceleration from gravity, though, only affects the vertical velocity. Since gravity is vertical as well, it's essentially impossible for the horizontal velocity to be changed at all.

This means that to solve the horizontal distance, we simply need to find the time it takes for the rock to hit the ground and multiply said time by the horizontal velocity.

Since the vertical velocity is the only thing changed by gravity, we can write out an equation that can solve for the time:

∆Y = [tex]v_{i}[/tex]t + [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]g[tex]t^{2}[/tex]

We know that initial vertical velocity is zero, so:

∆Y = [tex]v_{i}[/tex]t + [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]g[tex]t^{2}[/tex]

∆Y = 0t + [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]g[tex]t^{2}[/tex]

∆Y = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]g[tex]t^{2}[/tex]

We need to solve for t, so let's isolate the variable. Multiply both sides by 2 to get rid of the fraction:

∆Y * 2 =  [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]g[tex]t^{2}[/tex] * 2

2∆Y = g[tex]t^{2}[/tex]

Divide both sides by g:

(2∆Y)/g = [tex]\frac{gt^{2} }{g}[/tex]

Square root both sides:

[tex]\sqrt{(2Y)/g}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{t^{2} }[/tex]

t = [tex]\sqrt{(2Y)/g}[/tex]

Input our values for Y and g (Y is the height of the cliff, and g is gravitational acceleration):

t = [tex]\sqrt{(2*50)/9.80}[/tex]

Solve:

t =  [tex]\sqrt{(2*50)/9.80}[/tex]

t = 3.194 (s)

Whew! That was a lot of steps to find the time! Now that we have the time, we can find the horizontal distance the rock travels:

∆x = [tex]v_{i}[/tex]t + [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]a[tex]t^{2}[/tex]

The horizontal velocity has no acceleration (gravity is vertical!), so:

∆x = [tex]v_{i}[/tex]t + [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]*0*[tex]t^{2}[/tex]

∆x = [tex]v_{i}[/tex]t

The horizontal velocity is 15 m/s, and the time is 3.194:

∆x = [tex]v_{i}[/tex]t

∆x = 15 * 3.194

∆x = 47.91 (m)

Since we rounded the time, it makes sense that our final answer's a little bit off to the options. The closest one is option B, which is only 0.6m off, a tiny difference that may have come from the test maker's use of '10 m/[tex]s^{2}[/tex]' as the gravitational acceleration (while we stayed as accurate as possible with 9.80) as well as our rounding of the final time.

Option B, the stone will have travelled 47.85 meters.

If you have any questions on how I got to the answer or if you're still confused on any topic I attempted to explain, just ask in the comments and I'll try to answer it to the best of my ability! Good luck!

3) El motor de una moto le imprime una velocidad de 90 km/h al aplicar sobre ella una fuerza de 240 N. ¿Cuál es la potencia de la moto en vatios?

Answers

Answer:

P = 6000 W

Explanation:

The given question is "The motor of a motorcycle gives it a speed of 90 km / h when a force of 240 N is applied to it. What is the power of the motorcycle in watts?"

Given that,

Speed of a motorcycle, v = 90 km/h = 25 m/s

Force applied to the motorcycle, F = 240 N

We need to find the power of the motorcycle. We know that,

Power = Fv

So,

P = 240 N × 25 m/s

= 6000 W

So, the required power of the motorcycle is equal to 6000 W.

A 97.3 kg horizontal circular platform rotates freely with no friction about its center at an initial angular velocity of 1.67 rad/s . A monkey drops a 9.67 kg bunch of bananas vertically onto the platform. They hit the platform at 45 of its radius from the center, adhere to it there, and continue to rotate with it. Then the monkey, with a mass of 21.9 kg , drops vertically to the edge of the platform, grasps it, and continues to rotate with the platform. Find the angular velocity of the platform with its load. Model the platform as a disk of radius 1.73 m

Answers

Answer:

w = 1.14 rad / s

Explanation:

This is an angular momentum exercise. Let's define a system formed by the three bodies, the platform, the bananas and the monkey, in such a way that the torques during the collision have been internal and the angular momentum is preserved.

Initial instant. The platform alone

        L₀ = I w₀

Final moment. When the bananas are on the shelf

we approximate the bananas as a point load and the distance is indicated

x = 0.45m

        L_f = (m x² + I ) w₁

angular momentum is conserved

         L₀ = L_f

         I w₀ = (m x² + I) w₁

         w₁ = [tex]\frac{I}{m x^2 + I} \ w_o[/tex]

Let's repeat for the platform with the bananas and the monkey is the one that falls for x₂ = 1.73 m

initial instant. The platform and bananas alone

        L₀ = I₁ w₁

         I₁ = (m x² + I)

           

final instant. After the crash

        L_f = I w

        L_f = (I₁ + M x₂²) w

the moment is preserved

        L₀ = L_f

        (m x² + I) w₁ = ((m x² + I) + M x₂²) w

         (m x² + I) w₁ = (I + m x² + M x₂²) w

we substitute

         w =  [tex]\frac{m x^2 +I}{I + m x^2 + M x_2^2} \ \frac{I}{m x^2 + I} \ w_o[/tex]

         w =  [tex]\frac{I}{I + m x^2 + M x_2^2} \ w_o[/tex]

the moment of inertia of a circular disk is

         I = ½ m_p x₂²

we substitute

         w =  [tex]\frac{ \frac{1}{2} m_p x_2^2 }{ \frac{1}{2} m_p x_2^2 + M x_2^2 + m x^2} \ \ w_o[/tex]

let's calculate

          w =[tex]\frac{ \frac{1}{2} \ 97.3 \ 1.73^2 }{ \frac{1}{2} \ 97.3 \ 1.73^2 + 21.9 \ 1.73^2 + 9.67 \ 0.45^2 } \ \ 1.67[/tex]

          w =  [tex]\frac{145.60 }{145.60 \ + 65.54 \ + 1.958} \ \ 1.67[/tex]

          w = 1.14 rad / s

A 1.2 kg block is held at rest against the spring with a force constant k= 730 N/m. Initially, the spring is compressed a distance d. When the block is released, it slides across a surface that is frictionless except for a rough patch of width 5.0 cm that has a coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.44. Find d, such that the block's speed after crossing the rough patch is 2.3 m/s.

Answers

Answer:

Compression distance: [tex]d \approx 0.102\,m[/tex]

Explanation:

According to this statement, we know that system is non-conservative due to the rough patch. By Principle of Energy Conservation and Work-Energy Theorem, we have the following expression that represents the system having a translational kinetic energy ([tex]K[/tex]), in joules, at the expense of elastic potential energy ([tex]U[/tex]), in joules, and overcoming work losses due to friction ([tex]W_{l}[/tex]), in joules:

[tex]K + W_{l} = U[/tex] (1)

By definitions of translational kinetic and elastic potential energies and work losses due to friction, we expand the equation described above:

[tex]\frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v^{2} +\mu\cdot m\cdot g \cdot s = \frac{1}{2} \cdot k \cdot d^{2}[/tex] (2)

Where:

[tex]m[/tex] - Mass of the block, in kilograms.

[tex]v[/tex] - Final velocity of the block, in meters per second.

[tex]\mu[/tex] - KInetic coefficient of friction, no unit.

[tex]g[/tex] - Gravitational acceleration, in meters per square second.

[tex]s[/tex] - Width of the rough patch, in meters.

[tex]k[/tex] - Spring constant, in newtons per meter.

[tex]d[/tex] - Compression distance, in meters.

If we know that [tex]m = 1.2\,kg[/tex], [tex]v = 2.3\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], [tex]\mu = 0.44[/tex], [tex]g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex], [tex]s = 0.05\,m[/tex] and [tex]k = 730\,\frac{N}{m}[/tex], then the compression distance of the spring is:

[tex]\frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v^{2} +\mu\cdot m\cdot g \cdot s = \frac{1}{2} \cdot k \cdot d^{2}[/tex]

[tex]m\cdot v^{2} + 2\cdot m\cdot g \cdot s = k\cdot d^{2}[/tex]

[tex]d = \sqrt{\frac{m\cdot (v^{2}+2\cdot g\cdot s)}{k} }[/tex]

[tex]d \approx 0.102\,m[/tex]

A 5 kg object experiences a horizontal force, which
causes it to accelerate at 2 m/s2, moving it a distance of
10 m horizontally. How much work is done by the force
on the object?

Answers

Answer:

The work is done by the force 100 NM.

Explanation:

=5kg * 2 m/s^2

=5* 2 N (kg*m/s^2=N)

=10N

Work done = force* distance

=10N* 10

= 100 NM

For an object of mass 5 kg accelerating at the rate of 2 m/s², then the work done by the force on the object will be 100 Nm.

What is Work?

In physics, the word "work" involves the measurement of energy transfer that takes place when an item is moved over a range by an externally applied, at least a portion of which is applied within the direction of the displacement.

The length of the path is multiplied by the element of a force acting all along the path to calculate work if the force is constant. The work W is theoretically equivalent towards the force f times the length d, or W = fd, to portray this concept.

As per the given information in the question,

Mass of the object, m = 5 kg

Acceleration, a = 2 m/s²

Distance, d = 10 m

W = f × d

W = m × a × d

W = 5 × 2 × 10

W = 100 Nm

The magnetic field at point P due to a 2.0-A current flowing in a long, straight, thin wire is 8.0 μT. How far is point P from the wire?

Answers

Answer:

r = 0.05 m = 5 cm

Explanation:

Applying ampere's law to the wire, we get:

[tex]B = \frac{\mu_oI}{2\pi r}\\\\r = \frac{\mu_oI}{2\pi B}[/tex]

where,

r = distance of point P from wire = ?

μ₀ = permeability of free space = 4π x 10⁻⁷ N/A²

I = current = 2 A

B = Magnetic Field = 8 μT = 8 x 10⁻⁶ T

Therefore,

[tex]r = \frac{(4\pi\ x\ 10^{-7}\ N/A^2)(2\ A)}{2\pi(8\ x\ 10^{-6}\ T)}\\\\[/tex]

Out in the ocean, a wave crest 3.2 m high meets a wave trough from another direction which is 2.6 m deep. How high is the resulting wave??

Answers

Answer:

Height of resulting wave = 0.6 meters

Explanation:

Let the higher wave (wave crest) be A while the lower wave (wave trough) be B.

Given the following data;

A = 3.2m

B = 2.6m

To find the height of the resulting wave;

Height = A + B

But the lower wave becomes negative because it is below i.e on the lower trough.

Height = 3.2 + (-2.6)

Height = 3.2 - 2.6

Height of resulting wave = 0.6 meters
