Answer:
A galvanometer is converted into an ammeter by connecting a low resistance in parallel with the galvanometer.
Explanation:
This low resistance is called shunt resistance S. The scale is now calibrated in ampere and the range of the ammeter depends on the values of the shunt resistance.
Use the pressure meter to read the pressure in Fluid A at the bottom of the tank. Do not move the pressure meter. Switch to Fluid B and read the pressure in fluid B. Based on the two readings, compare the density of fluid B to the density of fluid A. Which statement is correct?
Answer:
[tex]P_b = \frac{\rho_b}{\rho_a} \ P_a[/tex]
Explanation:
The pressure at a depth of a fluid is
P = ρ g y
where ρ is the density of the fluid, y the depth of the gauge measured from the surface of the fluid.
In this case the pressure for fluid A is
Pa = ρₐ g y
the pressure for fluid B is
P_b = ρ_b g y
depth y not changes as the gauge is stationary
if we look for the relationship between these pressures
[tex]\frac{P_a}{P_b} = \frac{ \rho_a}{\rho_b}[/tex]
[tex]P_b = \frac{\rho_b}{\rho_a} \ P_a[/tex]
therefore we see that the pressure measured for fluid B is different from the pressure of fluid A
if ρₐ < ρ_b B the pressure P_b is greater than the initial reading
ρₐ> ρ_b the pressure in B decreases with respect to the reading in liquid A
1. A 63 kg driver gets into an empty taptap to start the day's work. The springs compress 1.5x10-2 m. What is the effective spring constant of the spring system in the taptap?
2. After driving a portion of the route, the taptap is fully loaded with a total of 24 people including the driver, with an average mass of 68 kg per person. In addition, there are three 15-kg goats, five 3-kg chickens, and a total of 25 kg of bananas on their way to the market. Assume that the springs have somehow not yet compressed to their maximum amount. How much are the springs compressed?
(1) When the driver is at rest, the restoring force exerted by spring is equal in magnitude to the driver's weight, so that
∑ F = s - mg = 0 ==> s = mg = 617.4 N
If the spring is compressed 0.015 m, then the spring constant k is such that
617.4 N = k (0.015 m) ==> k = 41,160 N/m ≈ 41 kN/m
(2) The total mass of the passengers is
24 (68 kg) + 3 (15 kg) + 5 (3 kg) + 25 kg = 1717 kg
so that if everyone is at rest, the spring is compressed a distance x such that
kx = (1717 kg) g ==> x ≈ 0.41 m

Answer:
D) Q = 80 C
Explanation:
Given;
current flowing in the light bulb, I = 2A
time of current flow, t = 40,000 ms = 40,000 x 10⁻³ s = 40 s
The quantity of the charge is calculated as;
Q = It
where;
Q is the quantity of the charge (Coulombs)
Q = (2 ) x (40)
Q = 80 C
Therefore, the quantity of charge flowing in the circuit is 80 C
D) Q = 80 C
Pascal's principle says: a A change in pressure at one point in an incompressible fluid is felt at every other point in the fluid. b The buoyant force equals the weight of the displaced fluid. c Matter must be conserved in a flowing, ideal fluid. d Energy is conserved in a flowing, ideal fluid. e A small input force causes a large output force.
Answer:
A change in pressure at one point in an incompressible fluid is felt at every other point in the fluid.
Explanation:
Pascal's principle states that ''pressure applied to an enclosed fluid will be transmitted without a change in magnitude to every point of the fluid and to the walls of the container.''(Science direct).
The implication of this law is; that a change in pressure at one point in an incompressible fluid is felt at every other point in the fluid. Hence the correct answer chosen above.
The Pascal's principle is applied in hydraulic jacks and automobile brakes.
A 69.0-kg astronaut is floating in space, luckily he has his trusty 28.0-kg physics book. He throws his physics book and accelerates at 0.0130 m/s2 in the opposite direction. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the physics book?
Answer:
0.032 [tex]m/s^2[/tex]
Explanation:
Given :
Weight of the astronaut = 69 kg
Weight of the physics book = 28 kg
Acceleration of the astronaut = 0.0130 [tex]m/s^2[/tex]
The force that is applied on the astronaut :
[tex]F=ma[/tex]
[tex]$=69 \times 0.013$[/tex]
= 0.897 N
Therefore, by Newton's 3rd law, we know that the force applied on the physics book is also F = 0.897 N
Therefore, the acceleration of the physics book is given by :
[tex]$a = \frac{\text{Force on physics book}}{\text{mass of physics book}}$[/tex]
[tex]$a = \frac{0.897}{28}$[/tex]
a = 0.032 [tex]m/s^2[/tex]
Hence, the acceleration of the physics book is 0.032 [tex]m/s^2[/tex].
Answer:
The acceleration of astronaut is 5.27 x 10^-3 m/s^2.
Explanation:
mass of astronaut, M = 69 kg
Mass of book, m = 28 kg
acceleration of book, a = 0.013 m/s^2
Let the acceleration of astronaut is A.
According to the Newton's third law, for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
So, the force acting on the book is same as the force acting on the astronaut but the direction is opposite to each other.
M A = m a
69 x A = 28 x 0.013
A = 5.27 x 10^-3 m/s^2
A physical pendulum in the form of a planar object moves in simple harmonic motion with a frequency of 0.680 Hz. The pendulum has a mass of 2.00 kg, and the pivot is located 0.340 m from the center of mass. Determine the moment of inertia of the pendulum about the pivot point.
Answer:
Therefore, the moment of inertia is:
[tex]I=0.37 \: kgm^{2} [/tex]
Explanation:
The period of an oscillation equation of a solid pendulum is given by:
[tex]T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{I}{Mgd}}[/tex] (1)
Where:
I is the moment of inertiaM is the mass of the pendulumd is the distance from the center of mass to the pivotg is the gravityLet's solve the equation (1) for I
[tex]T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{I}{Mgd}}[/tex]
[tex]I=Mgd(\frac{T}{2\pi})^{2}[/tex]
Before find I, we need to remember that
[tex]T = \frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{0.680}=1.47\: s[/tex]
Now, the moment of inertia will be:
[tex]I=2*9.81*0.340(\frac{1.47}{2\pi})^{2}[/tex]
Therefore, the moment of inertia is:
[tex]I=0.37 \: kgm^{2} [/tex]
I hope it helps you!

The exponent of the exponential function contains RC for the given circuit, which is called the time constant. Use the units of R and C to find units of RC. Write ohms in terms of volts and amps and write farads in terms of volts and coulombs. Simplify until you get something simple. Show your work below.
Answer:
The unit of the time constant RC is the second
Explanation:
The unit of resistance, R is the Ohm, Ω and resistance, R = V/I where V = voltage and I = current. The unit of voltage is the volt, V while the unit of current is the ampere. A.
Since R = V/I
Unit of R = unit of V/unit of I
Unit of R = V/A
Ω = V/A
Also, The unit of capacitance, C is the Farad, F and capacitance, F = Q/V where Q = charge and V = voltage. the unit of charge is the coulomb, C while the unit of voltage is the volt, V
Since C = Q/V
Unit of C = unit of Q/unit of V
Unit of C = C/V
F = C/V
Now the time constant equals RC.
So, the unit of the time constant = unit of R × unit of C = Ω × F = V/A × C/V = C/A
Also. we know that the 1 Ampere = 1 Coulomb per second
1 A = 1 C/s
So, substituting 1 A in the denominator, we have
unit of RC = C/A = C ÷ C/s = s
So, the unit of RC = s = second
So, the unit of the time constant RC is the second
A object of mass 3.00 kg is subject to a force Fx that varies with position as in the figure below. A coordinate plane has a horizontal axis labeled x (m) and a vertical axis labeled Fx (N). There are three line segments. The first segment runs from the origin to (4,3). The second segment runs from (4,3) to (11,3). The third segment runs from (11,3) to (17,0). (a) Find the work done by the force on the object as it moves from x = 0 to x = 4.00 m. J (b) Find the work done by the force on the object as it moves from x = 4.00 m to x = 11.0 m. J (c) Find the work done by the force on the object as it moves from x = 11.0 m to x = 17.0 m. J (d) If the object has a speed of 0.450 m/s at x = 0, find its speed at x = 4.00 m and its speed at x = 17.0 m.
Answer:
Explanation:
An impulse results in a change of momentum.
The impulse is the product of a force and a distance. This will be represented by the area under the curve
a) W = ½(4.00)(3.00) = 6.00 J
b) W = (11.0 - 4.00)(3.00) = 21.0 J
c) W = ½(17.0 - 11.0)(3.00) = 9.00 J
d) ASSUMING the speed at x = 0 is in the direction of applied force
½(3.00)(v₄²) = ½(3.00)(0.450²) + 6.00
v₄ = 2.05 m/s
½(3.00)(v₁₇²) = ½(3.00)(0.450²) + 6.00 + 21.0 + 9.00
v₁₇ = 4.92 m/s
If the initial speed is NOT in the direction of applied force, the final speed will be slightly less in both cases.
A roller coaster has a mass of 1200.0kg. The coaster is going 22.0 m/s at the bottom
of the third loop-the-loop that is 2.5m above the ground. Determine the height of
the first hill that is required, assuming the cart is stationary at the top of the first hill
before it falls.
Answer:
h = 27.17 m
Explanation:
First, we will calculate the total mechanical energy of the system at the bottom point of the third loop:
Mechanical Energy = Kinetic Energy + Potential Energy
[tex]E = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + mgh[/tex]
where,
E = Total Mechanical Energy = ?
m = mass of the roller coaster = 1200 kg
v = velocity of the roller coaster = 22 m/s
g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²
h = height of roller coaster = 2.5 m
Therefore,
[tex]E = \frac{1}{2}(1200\ kg)(22\ m/s)^2+(1200\ kg)(9.81\ m/s^2)(2.5\ m)\\\\E = 290400 J +29430\ J\\\\E = 319830\ J = 319.83\ KJ[/tex]
Now, the total mechanical energy at the top position of the first hill must also be the same:
[tex]E = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + mgh[/tex]
where,
v = 0 m/s
h = ?
Therefore,
[tex]319830\ J = \frac{1}{2}(1200\ kg)(0\ m/s)^2+(1200\ kg)(9.81\ m/s^2)(h)\\\\h = \frac{319830\ J}{11772\ N}\\\\[/tex]
h = 27.17 m

Two concentric current loops lie in the same plane. The smaller loop has a radius of 3.0 cm and a current of 12 A. The bigger loop has a current of 20 A. The magnetic field at the center of the loops is found to be zero.
Required:
What is the radius of the bigger loop?
Answer:
the radius of the bigger loop is 5 cm.
Explanation:
Given;
current in the smaller loop, I₁ = 12 A
current in the larger loop, I₂ = 20 A
radius of the smaller loop, r₁ = 3 cm
let the radius of the larger loop, = r₂
Apply Biot-Savart's law to determine the magnetic field at the center of the circular loops.
[tex]B= \frac{\mu_0 I}{2r}[/tex]
The magnetic field at the center of the smaller loop;
[tex]B_1 = \frac{\mu_0 I_1}{2 r_1}[/tex]
The magnetic field at the center of the bigger loop;
[tex]B_2 = \frac{\mu_0 I_2}{2 r_2}[/tex]
If the magnetic field at the center is zero, then B₁ = B₂
[tex]B_1 = B_2 = \frac{\mu_0 I_1}{2 r_1} = \frac{\mu_0 I_2}{2 r_2} \\\\\frac{I_1}{ r_1} = \frac{ I_2}{r_2} \\\\r_2 = \frac{I_2 r_1}{ I_1} = \frac{(20 \ A) \times (3.0 \ cm)}{12 \ A} = 5 \ cm[/tex]
Therefore, the radius of the bigger loop is 5 cm.

mass, m = 84.2 kg
The grindstone is a disc.
The torque is given by
torque = force x radius
Torque = 314 x 0.281 = 88.234 Nm
The torque is given by
Torque = Moment of inertia x angular acceleration
[tex]88.234 = 0.5 mr^2 \alpha \\\\88.234 = 0.5\times 84.2\times 0.281\times 0.281\times \alpha \\\\\alpha = 26.6 rad/s^2[/tex]

Introduction
Waves are important for building up and breaking down shorelines. Waves transport sand onto and off of beaches. They transport sand along beaches. Waves carve structures at the shore.
Wave Action and Erosion
All waves are energy traveling through some type of material, such as water (Figure below). Ocean waves form from wind blowing over the water.
Ocean waves are energy traveling through water.
The largest waves form when the wind is very strong, blows steadily for a long time, and blows over a long distance.
The wind could be strong, but if it gusts for just a short time, large waves won’t form. Wave energy does the work of erosion at the shore. Waves approach the shore at some angle so the inshore part of the wave reaches shallow water sooner than the part that is further out. The shallow part of the wave ‘feels’ the bottom first. This slows down the inshore part of the wave and makes the wave ‘bend.’ This bending is called refraction.
Wave refraction either concentrates wave energy or disperses it. In quiet water areas, such as bays, wave energy is dispersed, so sand is deposited. Areas that stick out into the water are eroded by the strong wave energy that concentrates its power on the wave-cut cliff (Figure below).
The wave erodes the bottom of the cliff, eventually causing the cliff to collapse.
Other features of wave erosion are pictured and named in Figure below. A wave-cut platform is the level area formed by wave erosion as the waves undercut a cliff. An arch is produced when waves erode through a cliff. When a sea arch collapses, the isolated towers of rocks that remain are known as sea stacks.
(a) The high ground is a large wave-cut platform formed from years of wave erosion. (b) A cliff eroded from two sides produces an arch. (c) The top of an arch erodes away, leaving behind a tall sea stack.
Wave Deposition
Rivers carry sediments from the land to the sea. If wave action is high, a delta will not form. Waves will spread the sediments along the coastline to create a beach (Figure below). Waves also erode sediments from cliffs and shorelines and transport them onto beaches.
Sand deposits in quiet areas along a shoreline to form a beach.
Beaches can be made of mineral grains, like quartz, rock fragments, and also pieces of shell or coral (Figure below).
Quartz, rock fragments, and shell make up the sand along a beach.
Waves continually move sand along the shore. Waves also move sand from the beaches on shore to bars of sand offshore as the seasons change. In the summer, waves have lower energy so they bring sand up onto the beach. In the winter, higher energy waves bring the sand back offshore.
Some of the features formed by wave-deposited sand are in Figure below. These features include barrier islands and spits. A spit is sand connected to land and extending into the water. A spit may hook to form a tombolo.
Examples of features formed by wave-deposited sand.
Shores that are relatively flat and gently sloping may be lined with long narrow barrier islands (Figure below). Most barrier islands are a few kilometers wide and tens of kilometers long.
(a) Barrier islands off of Alabama. A lagoon lies on the inland side. (b) Barrier islands, such as Padre Island off the coast of Texas, are made entirely of sand. (c) Barrier islands are some of the most urbanized areas of our coastlines, such as Miami Beach.
In its natural state, a barrier island acts as the first line of defense against storms such as hurricanes. When barrier islands are urbanized (Figure above), hurricanes damage houses and businesses rather than vegetated sandy areas in which sand can move. A large hurricane brings massive problems to the urbanized area.
Protecting Shorelines
Intact shore areas protect inland areas from storms that come off the ocean (Figure below).
Dunes and mangroves along Baja California protect the villages that are found inland.

A rugby player passes the ball 7.00 m across the field, where it is caught at the same height as it left his hand.
(a) At what angle was the ball thrown if its initial speed was 12.0 m/ s, assuming that the smaller of the two possible angles was used?
(b) What other angle gives the same range, and why would it not be used?
(c) How long did this pass take?
Answer:
a) θ = 14.23º, b) θ₂ = 75.77, c) t = 0.6019 s
Explanation:
This is a missile throwing exercise.
a) the reach of the ball is the distance traveled for the same departure height
R = [tex]\frac{v_o^2 \ sin 2 \theta }{g}[/tex]
sin 2θ = [tex]\frac{Rg}{v_o^2}[/tex]
sin 2θ = 7.00 9.8 / 12.0²
2θ = sin⁻¹ (0.476389) = 28.45º
θ = 14.23º
the complementary angle that gives the same range is the angle after 45 that the same value is missing to reach 90º
θ ’= 90 -14.23
θ’= 75.77º
b) the two angles that give the same range are
θ₁ = 14.23
θ₂ = 75.77
the greater angle has a much greater height so the time of the movement is greater and has a greater chance of being intercepted by the other team.
C) the time of the pass can be calculated with the expression
x = v₀ₓ t
t = x / v₀ₓ
t = 7 / 11.63
t = 0.6019 s

Imagine you’re driving along a road and you approach a bridge. You notice a sign that reads, “Bridge freezes before road.” Why do bridges become covered with ice before roads do? Research this question and respond in depth, writing a full paragraph. Be sure to include examples. At the end of your response, provide at least two authoritative sources that you used in your research.
Answer:
During wet and freezing temperatures, ice is able to form at a faster pace on bridges because freezing winds blow from above and below and both sides of the bridge, causing heat to quickly escape. The road freezes slower because it is merely losing heat through its surface.Sources:

[tex]\pho=m*l\\\\\pho=46*579\\\\\pho=0.0799kg/m[/tex]
Therefore
[tex]v=\sqrt{\frac{3423}{0.0799}}[/tex]
[tex]v=206.896m/s[/tex]
b)
Generally the equation for length of string is mathematically given by
[tex]L=\frac{3\lambda}{2}[/tex]
Where
[tex]\lambda=\frac{v}{f}[/tex]
[tex]\lambda=\frac{206.89}{46}[/tex]
[tex]\lambda=4.498[/tex]
Therefore
[tex]L=\frac{3*4.498}{2}[/tex]
[tex]L=6.749m[/tex]
Two masses of 3 kg and 5 kg are connected by a light string that passes over a smooth polley as shown in the Figure.

Determine:
i. the tension in the string,
ii. the acceleration of each mass, and
iii. the distance each mass moves in the first second of motion if they start from rest
i. [tex]T = 36.8\:\text{N}[/tex]

iii. [tex]x = 1.23\:\text{m}[/tex]
Explanation:
Let's write Newton's 2nd law for each object. We will use the sign convention assigned for each as indicated in the figure. Let T be the tension on the string and assume that the string is inextensible so that the two tensions on the strings are equal. Also, let a be the acceleration of the two masses. And [tex]m_1 = 3\:\text{kg}[/tex] and [tex]m_2 = 5\:\text{kg}[/tex]
Forces acting on m1:
[tex]T - m_1g = m_1a\:\:\:\:\:\:\:(1)[/tex]
Forces acting on m2:
[tex]m_2g - T = m_2a\:\:\:\:\:\:\:(2)[/tex]
Combining Eqn(1) and Eqn(2) together, the tensions will cancel out, giving us
[tex]m_2g - m_1g = m_2a + m_1a[/tex]
or
[tex](m_2 - m_1)g = (m2 + m_1)a[/tex]
Solving for a,
[tex]a = \left(\dfrac{m_2 - m_1}{m_2 + m_1}\right)g[/tex]
[tex]\:\:\:\:= \left(\dfrac{5\:\text{kg} - 3\:\text{kg}}{5\:\text{kg} + 3\:\text{kg}}\right)(9.8\:\text{m/s}^2)[/tex]
[tex]\:\:\:\:= 2.45\:\text{m/s}^2[/tex]
We can solve for the tension by using this value of acceleration on either Eqn(1) or Eqn(2). Let's use Eqn(1).
[tex]T - (3\:\text{kg})(9.8\:\text{m/s}^2) = (3\:\text{kg})(2.45\:\text{m/s}^2)[/tex]
[tex]T = (3\:\text{kg})(9.8\:\text{m/s}^2) + (3\:\text{kg})(2.45\:\text{m/s}^2)[/tex]
[tex]\:\:\:\:= 29.4\:\text{m/s}^2 + 7.35\:\text{m/s}^2 = 36.8\:\text{N}[/tex]
Assuming that the two objects start from rest, the distance that they travel after one second is given by
[tex]x = \frac{1}{2}at^2 = \frac{1}{2}(2.45\:\text{m/s}^2)(1\:\text{s})^2 = 1.23\:\text{m}[/tex]
