Describe the forces that are acting on a person who is standing still on a sidewalk, and identify whether the forces are balanced or unbalanced. Describe how the forces would change if the person started walking.

Answers

Answer:

a. i His weight and the normal force on him due to the ground

ii The weight and the normal force are balance

b. There are four forces acting on him while he is walking. These are the backward push due to his leg on the ground and the frictional force between his feet in the horizontal direction and, his weight and normal force on his feet in the vertical direction.

Explanation:

a. i Describe the forces that are acting on a person who is standing still on a sidewalk

His weight and the normal force on him due to the ground act on him while the person is standing on the sidewalk

ii. identify whether the forces are balanced or unbalanced.

The weight and the normal force are balance because, the person does not move in the vertical or horizontal direction.

b. Describe how the forces would change if the person started walking.

When the person starts walking, the backward push due to his leg on the ground and the frictional force between his feet and the ground now acts on him in the horizontal direction. The frictional force acts in the forward direction and tends to move him forward. His weight and normal force on his feet still act vertically and are both balanced since he does not move in the vertical direction.

So, there are four forces acting on him while he is walking. These are the backward push due to his leg on the ground and the frictional force between his feet in the horizontal direction and, his weight and normal force on his feet in the vertical direction.

The energy of a photon was found to be 3.38 x 10-19 J. Planck's constant is 6.63 x 10-34 J. S. Which color of light corresponds to this photon?
violet
green
yellow
red ​

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is (c).

Explanation:

Given that,

The energy of a photon is, [tex]E=3.38\times 10^{-19}\ J[/tex]

We need to tell the color of this light. We know that, the energy of a photon is given by :

[tex]E=\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}[/tex]

Where

c is the speed of light

[tex]\lambda=\dfrac{hc}{E}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{6.63\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{3.38 \times 10^{-19}}\\\\\lambda=5.88\times 10^{-7}\ m\\\\\lambda=588\ nm[/tex]

The wavelength of yellow light is approx 580 nm. Hence, we can say that this photon corresponds to yellow light.

2. Why is alcohol thermometer not suitable to measure high temperature?​

Answers

Answer:

Alcohol thermometers are used rather than mercury thermometers in very cold regions because alcohol has a lower freezing point than mercury. Pure ethanol freezes at -115 degrees C, while mercury freezes at -38 degrees C.

Explanation:

It is less durable because alcohol evaporates faster than mercury. It cannot measure high temperature because of a low boiling point. It wets the walls of the thermometer, which can adversely impact the accuracy of readings

If the vehiche has a speed of 24.0 m/s at point a what is the force of the track on the vehicle at this point?

Answers

Question:

A roller-coaster vehicle has a mass of 500 kg when fully loaded with passengers.  If the vehicle has a speed of 20.0 m/s at point A, what is the force exerted by the track on the vehicle at this point?

See attachment

Answer:

33700 Newton

Explanation:

Given

[tex]m = 500kg\\v = 24.0m/s\\r=10m[/tex]

First, we determine the forces acting on mass m.

They are: the force exerted by the track (Fn) and the weight of the vehicle (W)

So, the net force is:

[tex]F_{net} = F_n - W[/tex]

[tex]W=mg[/tex]

So:

[tex]F_{net} = F_n - mg[/tex]

Make Fn the subject

[tex]F_n = F_{net} + mg[/tex]

Fnet is calculated as:

[tex]F_{net} = F_c = \frac{mv^2}{r}[/tex] --- i.e. the centripetal force

So:

[tex]F_n = F_{net} + mg[/tex]

[tex]F_n = \frac{mv^2}{r} + mg[/tex]

[tex]F_n = \frac{500 * 24^2}{10} + 500 * 9.8[/tex]

[tex]F_n = 28800 + 4900[/tex]

[tex]F_n = 33700N[/tex]

what forces are being used when walking a dog and how ?

Answers

There are tons of forces that balance out on your body while you walk. Subsequent physics classes will tell you about each and how they are represented. Here are a few in order of how people usually learn them.

Gravity: The earth exerts a gravitational force on each particle in your body that has mass. Overall, this can be represented as a single force that pulls directly toward the center of the earth from the point called your center of mass.

Normal Force: The contact between your feet/shoes and the ground exerts a force normal (straight out from) the ground. If you are on flat ground, this force is directly opposite the force of gravity, and in most cases will be equal to it such that you have no vertical net force.

Friction: Friction between your shoes/feet and the ground, pointing parallel to the ground and in the direction of your walking motion creates the force necessary for you to move. The microscopic peaks and valleys of the ground and your feet/shoes create small normal forces that can sum into a direction of motion.

Air Buoyancy: Since you are in a fluid, the mass of the fluid you displace creates an upward force away from the center of the earth. Since the density of air is miniscule, this force is generally neglected except in the most precise of circumstances.

Drag and Air resistance: While you walk, as you move through a fluid, that fluid exerts friction on your body in the form of drag. It is usually small unless you’re moving very fast relative to the fluid.

Air pressure, blood pressure, body tensions: Your body has a balance of blood pressure, muscle tensions, which oppose outside air pressures which equalize out to form the shape your body is in.

Internal forces: Many forces act within you such as air pressure, other muscle tensions, and internal stresses which balance out. Usually in physics these are lumped under internal forces.

A mechanic uses a screw driver to install a 1⁄4-20 UNC bolt into a mechanical brace. What is the mechanical advantage of the system? What is the resistance force if the effort force is 5 lb

Answers

Answer:

15.7 ; 78.5

Explanation:

Given that

The mechanic use a screw driver to install 1⁄4-20 UNC bolt

And, the effort force is 5lb

We need to find out the mechanical advantage

And, the resistance force

As we know that

The Mechanical advantage of a screw = Circumference ÷ pitch

where,  

Circumference = pi × d

 pi = 3.142, D = diameter

So,  

Circumference = 3.142 × (1 ÷ 4)

= 0.785 in

Now

Pitch = 1 ÷ TPI

Here TPI (thread per inch) = 20

Pitch = 1 ÷  20 = 0.05

So,

Mechanical advantage = 0.785 ÷ 0.05

= 15.7

Now Resistance force if effort force is 5lb

We know that

Mechanical advantage = Fr ÷ Fe

Here

Fe = effort force, Fr = resistance force

15.7 = Fr ÷ 5

Fr = 15.7 × 5

= 78.5 lbs

notes of Vibrational Motion or what they are

Answers

Answer:

Vibration means quickly moving back and forth (or up and down) about a point of equilibrium. ... Something that is vibrating may shake at the same time. If it vibrates in a regular way, it may produce a musical note because it can make the air vibrate. This vibration will send sound waves to the ear and to the brain.

Explanation:

Vibration, periodic back-and-forth motion of the particles of an elastic body or medium, commonly resulting when almost any physical system is displaced from its equilibrium condition and allowed to respond to the forces that tend to restore equilibrium.

A student is blowing against the mouthpiece of a 668mm flute (open at both ends) causing it to resonate. (The air inside and outside the flute is 24.5°C)

1) what is the speed of the sound in the flute?

2) what is the fundamental frequency of the note produced?

3) what is the wavelength of the sound wave?

Answers

Answer:

a)     v = 345.5 m / s,  b)    f = 183.8 Hz,  c)  λ = 1,336 m

Explanation:

a) the speed of sound depends on the density of the medium and this depends on the temperature, therefore

         v = [tex]v_o \ \sqrt{1+ \frac{T}{273} }[/tex]

where v₀ is the speed of sound at 0ºC v₀ = 331 m / s

         v = 331  [tex]\sqrt{1 + \frac{24.5}{273} }[/tex]

         v = 345.5 m / s

c) In the exercise they indicate that the flute is a tube with the two ends open, so that at each end there is a belly, the resonance is

        λ / 2 = L

        λ = 2L

        λ = 2 0.668

        λ = 1,336 m

b) let's apply the relationship between speed, wavelength and frequency

        v = λ f

        f = v /λ

        f = 345.5 / 1.336

        f = 183.8 Hz
