Hey there, I have a physics question that sadly I can't figure out since the pearson e book keeps crashing. Also I am blind and CAN'T SEE PICTURES OR GRAPHS!! So for the question: Let θ be the angle that the vector A⃗ makes with the +x-axis, measured counterclockwise from that axis. Find the angle θ for a vector that has the following components.Part AAx= 4.20 m, Ay= -2.10 mExpress your answer in degrees.
ANSWER:
333.4°
STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:
To find angle for a vector:
[tex]\theta=\tan ^{-1}\mleft(\frac{A_y}{A_x}\mright)[/tex]We substitute the values of this case and the angle would then be:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \theta=\tan ^{-1}\mleft(\frac{-2.10}{4.20}\mright) \\ \theta=\tan ^{-1}(-0.5) \\ \theta=-26.56\cong-26.6 \\ \theta=360-26.6 \\ \theta=333.4\text{\degree} \end{gathered}[/tex]The angle is 333.4°
Before an impact, object 1 has a momentum of 25 kg m/s straight north and object 2 has amomentum of 75 kg m/s straight south. What is the total momentum after the impact?
Answer:
50 kg m/s straight south.
Explanation:
By the conservation of momentum, the total momentum after the impact is equal to the momentum before the impact. Since the objects have momentum in opposite directions, we need to subtract the values, so
[tex]\begin{gathered} p=75\text{ kg m/s - 25 kg m/s} \\ p=50\text{ kg m/s} \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the total momentum after the impact is 50 kg m/s straight south.

[tex]\begin{gathered} Y=5.05\times10^4 \\ Y=5.05\times10000 \\ Y=50500 \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, the standard notation of this number is 50500.
Thus, the correct option for the above question is A.
The binding energy of a nucleus is always negative.Question 4 options:TrueFalse
ANSWER
False.
EXPLANATION
Nuclear binding energy is the energy that is required to split the nucleus (of an atom) into nucleons: protons and neutrons.
The binding energy of a nucleus is always positive because nuclei require energy to separate them and it is impossible for nuclei to gain energy by being separated.
Therefore, the answer is false.

A 0.86 m tall object is placed 3.35 m away from a lens. If the image is 4.58 m tall, how far away from the lens was the image produced? O
The magnification is the ratio of the image size to the object size. If the image and object are in the same medium, it is just the image distance divided by the object distance:
[tex]M=\frac{i}{o}[/tex]On the other hand:
[tex]M=\frac{h^{\prime}}{h}[/tex]Where h' is the size of the image and h is the size of the object.
Therefore:
[tex]\frac{h^{\prime}}{h}=\frac{i}{o}[/tex]Substitute h'=4.58m, h=0.86m and o=3.35m to find i, the distance from the lens at which the image is produced:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \Rightarrow i=\frac{h^{\prime}}{h}\cdot o \\ =\frac{4.58m}{0.86m}\cdot3.35m \\ =17.84m \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the image is produced 17.84m away from the lens.

Physics is the branch of science that deals with the energy and matter and how they are relate to each other. Physics is simply as a natural science that depends on the approximation, measurements and mathematical analysis.
Define electricity in detail.
Electricity is the phenomenon of the flow of electric charges due to the potential difference.
The flow of electric charges across the conductor is known as electric current.
Unit of electric current is Ampere.
Potential difference is the difference of potential between two charges.
There are two charges namely positive and negative.
Uneven distribution of charges causes the potential difference.
Suppose A and B are two points on a conductor where A has a 5 C charge and B has a 3 C charge.
Thus, the current will flow from higher potential to lower potential which is from A to B.
Resistance is the opposing property of the conductor which opposes the flow of current.
The unit of resistance is ohm.
Two spherical objects have masses of 1.5 x 105 kg and 8.5 x 102 kg. Their centers are separated by a distance of 2500 m. Find the gravitational attraction between them.
Given data
*The mass of the first spherical object is m = 1.5 × 10^5 kg
*The mass of the second spherical object is M = 8.5 × 10^2 kg
*The separated distance between the two spherical objects is r = 2500 m

Given:
The mass of the cup, m=0.40 kg
The pressure applied by the cup, P=1000 N/m²= 1000 Pa

McKenna is performing an experiment. She is testing the relationship between the temperature of water, and how long it takes for rust to form on iron plates. If she finds that higher temperatures lead to lower times for rusting, what is the qualitative relationship?positive correlationno correlationnegative correlationinverse square correlation
As with the increase in the temperature, the time taken to form the rust on the iron plate decreases.
This correlation is known as a negative correlation.
Thus, the relationship between the temperature of the water and the time taken to form rust on the iron plate is a negative correlation.
Hence, the third option is the correct answer.
Part 3/3 find the thermal energy transferred. Answer in units of KJ
0.0We are asked to determine the volume of a gas given the moles, the temperature, and the pressure. To do that, we use the following formula:
[tex]PV=nRT[/tex]Where:
[tex]\begin{gathered} P=pressure \\ V=\text{ volume} \\ n=\text{ number of moles} \\ R=\text{ universal gas constant} \\ T=\text{ temperature} \end{gathered}[/tex]Now, we substitute the values for the final state. Since the process is isothermally this means that the final temperature is the same as the initial temperature. we get:
[tex](1.8atm)V_f=(2mol)(8.31415\frac{J}{Kmol})(243K)[/tex]We need to convert the pressure from atmospheres to Pascals. To do that we use the following conversion factor:
[tex]1atm=101325Pa[/tex]Multiplying by the conversion factor we get:
[tex]1.8atm\times\frac{101325Pa}{1atm}=182385Pa[/tex]Now, we substitute the value in the formula:
[tex](182385Pa)V_f=(2mol)(8.3145\times\frac{J}{Kmol})(243K)[/tex]Solving the operations:
[tex](182385Pa)V_f=4040.847J[/tex]Now, we divide both sides by 182385Pa:
[tex]V_f=\frac{4040.847J}{182385Pa}[/tex]Solving the operations:
[tex]V_f=0.022m^3[/tex]Therefore, the final volume is 0.022 cubic meters.
Part B. We are asked to determine the work done. To do that we will use the formula for isothermic work:
[tex]W=nRT\ln(\frac{P_0}{P_f})[/tex]Where:
[tex]P_0,P_f=\text{ initial and final pressure}[/tex]Now, we plug in the values:
[tex]W=(2mol)(8.31451\frac{J}{Kmol})(243K)\ln(\frac{0.21atm}{1.8atm})[/tex]Now, we solve the operations:
[tex]W=-8681.51J[/tex]Therefore, the work done is -8681.51 Joule. To convert to kilojoules we divide by 1000:
[tex]W=-8681.51J\times\frac{1kJ}{1000J}=-8.68kJ[/tex]Part 3. In an isothermic process the change in internal energy is zero, therefore, according to the first law of thermodynamics we have:
[tex]Q-W=0[/tex]Therefore:
[tex]Q=W[/tex]Therefore, the amount of heat is equal to the amount of work. Therefore, the thermal energy transferred is:
[tex]Q=-8.68kJ[/tex]An escalator is used to move 20 passengers every 60s from the first floor of a department store to the second. The second floor is located above the first floor. The average passenger's mass is 54.9 kg. Determine the power requirement of the escalator in order to move this number of passengers in this amount of time
From the information given,
The average passenger's mass is 54.9 kg
Force exerted by each passenger = weight of passenger = mg
where
m = mass = 54.9
g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s^2
Force = weight = 54.9 x 9.8 = 538.02 N
We would determine the work done in moving one passenger. The formula for calculating work is
work = force x distance
distance = 5.2
Work = 538.02 x 5.2 = 2797.704 J
Work done in moving 20 passengers = 2797.704 x 20 = 55954.08
Recall,
Power = work/time
Given that time = 60s,
Power = 55954.08/60
Power = 933 W
the power requirement of the escalator in order to move this number of passengers in this amount of time is 933 W
A wave traveling on a Slinky® that is stretched to 4 m takes 4.97 s to travel the length of the Slinky and back again.(a) What is the speed (in m/s) of the wave? 1.61 m/s b) Using the same Slinky® stretched to the same length, a standing wave is created which consists of seven antinodes and eight nodes. At what frequency (in Hz) must the Slinky be oscillating? Hz =
Given:
The length of the slinky is: L = 4 m.
The time taken by the wave to travel the length and back again is: t = 4.97 s
To find:
a) The speed of the wave
b) The frequency of the wave
Explanation:
a)
As the wave on the slinky travels along the length and back again, it covers a distance that is double the distance of the slinky.
Thus, the total distance "d" traveled by the wave will be 2L.
The speed "v" of the wave is given as:
[tex]\begin{gathered} v=\frac{d}{t} \\ \\ v=\frac{2L}{t} \end{gathered}[/tex]Substituting the values in the above equation, we get:
[tex]\begin{gathered} v=\frac{2\times4\text{ m}}{4.97\text{ s}} \\ \\ v=\frac{8\text{ m}}{4.97\text{ s}} \\ \\ v=1.61\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, the speed of the wave is 1.61 m/s
b)
The standing wave created consists of seven antinodes and eight nodes. Thus, the length of the slinky is 7/2 times the wavelength of the wave.
[tex]L=\frac{7}{2}\lambda[/tex]Rearranging the above equation, we get:
[tex]\lambda=\frac{2}{7}L[/tex]Substituting the values in the above equation, we get:
[tex]\lambda=\frac{2}{7}\times4\text{ m}=\frac{8\text{ m}}{7}=1.143\text{ m}[/tex]The speed "v" of the wave is related to its wavelength "λ" and a frequency "f" as:
[tex]v=f\lambda[/tex]Rearranging the above equation, we get:
[tex]f=\frac{v}{\lambda}[/tex]Substituting the values in the above equation, we get:
[tex]\begin{gathered} f=\frac{1.61\text{ m/s}}{1.143\text{ m}} \\ \\ f=1.41\text{ Hz} \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, the frequency of the wave on the slinky is 1.41 Hz.
Final answer:
a) The speed of the wave is 1.61 m/s.
b) The frequency of the oscillation of the slinky is 1.41 Hz.

Given data:
The mass of the block on table is M=500 g.
The hanging mass is m=300 g.
The kinetic friction is μ=0.25.
Part (a)
The free body diagram of the block on table is shown below,
The free body diagram of hanging mass is shown below,
Part (b)
The equation according Newton's second law for 500 g mass will be,
[tex]\begin{gathered} F_{net}=Ma \\ T-f=Ma \\ T-\mu N=Ma \\ T-\mu Mg=Ma \\ T=M(a+\mu g)\ldots\ldots(1) \end{gathered}[/tex]Here, f is the friction force, N is the normal force, and T is the tension in the string.
Part (c)
The equation according Newton's second law for 300 g mass will be,
[tex]\begin{gathered} F_{net}=ma \\ mg-T=ma \\ T=mg-ma \\ T=m(g-a)\ldots\ldots(2) \end{gathered}[/tex]Part (d)
Equating equation (1) and (2) to solve for acceleration,
[tex]\begin{gathered} M(a+\mu g)=m(g-a) \\ 500(a+0.25(9.81))=300(9.81-a) \\ a+2.45=0.6(9.81-a) \\ a+2.45=5.886-0.6a \\ a+0.6a=5.886-2.45 \\ 1.6a=3.436 \\ a=2.14m/s^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, the acceleration of the blocks are 2.14 m/s².
Part (e)
Substitute the value of acceleration in equation (1) to calculate the tension,
[tex]\begin{gathered} T=M(a+\mu g) \\ T=500(2.14+(0.25)(9.81)) \\ T=2296gm/s^2\times\frac{1\text{ N}}{1000gm/s^2} \\ T=2.296\text{ N} \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, the tension in the sting is 2.296 N.

Object A has a mass of 3 kg and a velocity of 2 m/s. It collides and sticks to object B which had a mass of 10 kg and a velocity of 1 m/s. How fast will the object AB be moving after the collision?
Object AB is moving with the velocity of 1.23 m/s.
Givne data:
The mass of object A is m=3 kg.
The velocity of object A is u=2 m/s.
The mass of object B is M=10 kg
The velocity of object B is v=1 m/s.
Applying the conservation of momentum before and after the collision,
[tex]\begin{gathered} mu+Mv=(m+M)V \\ (3)(2)+(10)(1)=(3+10)V \\ V=1.23\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, the object AB moving with a velocity of 1.23 m/s after the collision.
In a dart gun, a spring with k = 400.0 N/m is compressed 8.0 cm when the dart (mass m = 20.0 g) is loaded.

K. E. = [tex]\frac{1}{2} mv^{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{2} *0.02*v^{2}= 0.01 v^{2}[/tex]
Now, P.E. = K.E.
[tex]0.01 v^{2} = 1.28 \\\\v^{2} =\frac{1.28}{0.01} \\\\v^{2} = 128\\ \\v = 11.3[/tex]

If a bullet leaves the muzzle of a rifle with a speed of 600 m/s, and the barrel of the rifle is 0.800 m long, at what rate is the bullet accelerated while in the barrel?That is the question I am having trouble with
Given that the final velocity of the bullet is
[tex]V_f=600\text{ m/s}[/tex]The initial velocity of the bullet is
[tex]V_i=0\text{ m/s}[/tex]The distance traveled by the bullet is x = 0.8 m
We have to find the acceleration.
Let the acceleration be denoted by a.
The equation which can be used to calculate acceleration is
[tex](V_f)^2-(V_i)^2=2ax[/tex]Substituting the values, acceleration will be
[tex]\begin{gathered} (600)^2-0^2=2\times a\times0.8 \\ a=\frac{360000}{1.6} \\ =225000m/s^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus the acceleration will be 225000 m/s^2.
Two large parallel plates are 17 cm apart and have equal but opposite charges on the surfaces facing each other. An electron is placed half way between the plates. Find the potential difference between the plates if the force on the electron is 5.2×10^(−15) N .
The potential difference between the plates is equal to 5525 V if the force on the electron is 5.2 ×10⁻¹⁵N.
What is the formula for the electric field of a capacitor?The magnitude of the electric field of the parallel plate capacitor can be calculated from the formula given below:
E = F /q
Where E is the electric field, q is the charge on the electrons and F is the force.
Given the distance between plates, d = 17 cm = 0.17 m
The force, F = 5.2 ×10⁻¹⁵ N, q = 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C
E = 5.2 ×10⁻¹⁵/1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹
E = 32500 N/C
The potential difference , V = E × d
V = 32500 × 0.17
V = 5525 V
