How to keep my family safe during a hurricane?
If you are not advised to evacuate or are unable to do so safely, stay indoors, away from windows, skylights and doors. Continue to monitor weather reports and do not go outside until the storm has passed. And, to protect your children from seeing too many sights and images of the hurricane, limit media exposure.
We have a toy gun with a spring constant of 50 N/m. The spring is compressed by 0.2 m. If you neglect friction and the mass of the spring, at what speed will a 2 g projectile be ejected from the gun
Answer:
[tex]31.6\:\mathrm{m/s}[/tex]
Explanation:
The elastic potential energy of a spring is given by [tex]Us=\frac{1}{2}kx^2[/tex], where [tex]k[/tex] is the spring constant of the spring and [tex]x[/tex] is displacement from point of equilibrium.
When released, this potential energy will be converted into kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is given by [tex]KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex], where [tex]m[/tex] is the mass of the object and [tex]v[/tex] is the object's velocity.
Thus, we have:
[tex]Us=KE,\\\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex]
Substituting given values, we get:
[tex]\frac{1}{2}\cdot 50\cdot 0.2^2=\frac{1}{2}\cdot 0.002\cdot v^2,\\v^2=\frac{50\cdot 0.2^2}{0.002},\\v^2=1000,\\v\approx \boxed{31.6\:\mathrm{m/s}}[/tex]

The Keck Observatory is home to the largest Earth-based twin telescopes. The telescopes are located away from city lights, above the clouds where the atmosphere is clear, calm, and dry. In 1999, additional steps were taken to help the telescopes overcome any distortions caused by changes in the atmosphere by adding a laser sighting system. Now, the Keck telescopes can probe distant galaxies and capture images with more detail than even the Hubble Space Telescope. Scientists can now use the Keck telescopes to investigate many questions. What is one question the Keck telescopes would NOT help scientists answer
Answer:
Option D
Explanation:
The options for the question are
a) How do galaxies rotate?
b) What is the weather on Neptune?
c) What is the core of Saturn made of?
d) What other solar systems have planets?
Solution
The Hubble space telescope was designed and integrated into the extraterrestrial system in order to capture information about the surrounding universe. If the Keck Observatory has a better observation capacity than the Hubble space telescope then the scientist would be interested to know the surrounding planets in the solar system.
Hence, option D is correct

The equation provided (from the textbook) first defines the elastic potential energy of a spring as ΔUsp = −(WB + WW), where WB is work the spring does on an attached block and WW is work the spring does on the wall to which it is attached. But WW is ignored in the next step. Why?
Answer:
The given potential energy of the spring is expressed as follows;
ΔUsp = -(WB + WW)
Where;
WB = Th work done by the spring on the block to which it is attached
WW = The work done by the spring on the wall
We recall that work done, W = Force applied × Distance moved in the direction of the force
The work done by the spring on the block, WB = The spring force × The distance the block moves
The work done by the spring on the wall, WW = The spring force × The distance the wall moves
However, given that the wall does not move, we have;
The distance the wall moves = 0
∴ The work done by the spring on the wall, WW = The spring force × 0 = 0 J
Therefore, WW = 0 J, and the spring does not do work on the wall, and WW can be ignored in the next subsequent) steps

Quanto tempo deve ficar ligado um ferro eletrico de 1000 w para que tenha o mesmo consumo de energia que um chuveiro de 4400 w que fica ligado 10 minutos
Answer:
Thus, the time for the first lamp is 44 minutes.
Explanation:
Power of first lamp, P' = 1000 W
Power of second lamp, P'' = 4400 W
time for second lamp, t'' = 10 minutes
Let the time for first lamp is t'.
As the energy is same, so,
P' x t' = P'' x t''
1000 x t' = 4400 x 10
t' = 44 minutes
An aluminum-alloy rod has a length of 10.0 cm at 20°C and a length of 10.015 cm at the boiling point of water (1000C). (a) What is the length of the rod at the freezing point of water (0 0C)? (b) What is the temperature if the length of the rod is 10.009 cm? /4mks
Answer:
a. 9.99625 cm b. 68 °C
Explanation:
(a) What is the length of the rod at the freezing point of water (0 0C)?
Before we find the length of the rod, we need to find the coefficient of linear expansion, α = (L - L₀)/[L₀(T - T₀)] where L₀ = length of rod at temperature T₀ = 10.0 cm, T₀ = 20 °C, L = length of rod at temperature T = 10.015 cm and T = 100 °C
Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have
α = (L - L₀)/[L₀(T - T₀)]
α = (10.015 cm - 10.0 cm)/[10.0 cm(100 °C - 20 °C)]
α = 0.015 cm/[10.0 cm × 80 °C]
α = 0.015 cm/[800.0 cm °C]
α = 0.00001875 /°C
We now find the length L₁ at T₁ = 0 °C from
L₁ = L₀(1 + α(T₁ - T₀))
So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have
L₁ = L₀(1 + α(T₁ - T₀))
L₁ = 10.0 cm[1 + 0.00001875 /°C(0° C - 20 °C)]
L₁ = 10.0 cm[1 + 0.00001875 /°C × -20° C]
L₁ = 10.0 cm[1 - 0.000375]
L₁ = 10.0 cm[0.999625]
L₁ = 9.99625 cm
(b) What is the temperature if the length of the rod is 10.009 cm?
With length L₃ = 10.009 cm at temperature T₃, using
L₃ = L₀(1 + α(T₃ - T₀))
making T₃ subject of the formula, we have
L₃/L₀ = 1 + α(T₃ - T₀)
L₃/L₀ - 1 = α(T₃ - T₀)
T₃ - T₀ = (L₃/L₀ - 1)/α
T₃ = T₀ + (L₃/L₀ - 1)/α
substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have
T₃ = 20 °C + (10.009 cm/10.0 cm - 1)/0.00001875 /°C
T₃ = 20 °C + (1.0009 - 1)/0.00001875 /°C
T₃ = 20 °C + 0.0009/0.00001875 /°C
T₃ = 20 °C + 48 °C
T₃ = 68 °C

se lanza un cuerpo desde el origen con velocidad horizontal de 40 m/s, y con un ángulo de 60º. calcular la máxima altura y el alcance horizontal.
Answer:
1. [tex]h = 244.8 m[/tex]
2. [tex]x = 564.8 m[/tex]
Explanation:
1. La altura máxima se puede calcular usando la siguiente ecuación:
[tex] v_{f}^{2} = v_{0}^{2} - 2gh [/tex] (1)
Where:
[tex]v_{f_{y}}[/tex]: es la velocidad final = 0 (en la altura máxima)
[tex]v_{0_{y}}[/tex]: es la velocidad inicial horizontal en "y"
g: es la gravedad = 9.81 m/s²
h: es la altura máxima =?
La velocidad incial en "y" se puede calcular de la siguiente manera:
[tex] tan(\theta) = \frac{v_{0_{y}}}{v_{0_{x}}} [/tex]
[tex] v_{0_{y}} = tan(60)*40 m/s = 69.3 m/s [/tex]
Resolviendo la ecuación (1) para "h" tenemos:
[tex]h = \frac{v_{0_{y}}^{2}}{2g} = \frac{(69.3 m/s)^{2}}{2*9.81 m/s^{2}} = 244.8 m[/tex]
2. Para calcular el alcance horizontal podemos usar la ecuación:
[tex]x = v_{x}*t[/tex]
Primero debemos encontrar el tiempo cuando la altura es máxima ([tex]v_{f_{y}}[/tex] = 0).
[tex] v_{f_{y}} = v_{0_{y}} - gt [/tex]
[tex] t = \frac{v_{0_{y}}}{g} = \frac{69.3 m/s}{9.81 m/s^{2}} = 7.06 s [/tex]
Ahora, como el tiempo de subida es el mismo que el tiempo de bajada, el tiempo máximo es:
[tex] t_{m} = 2*7.06 s = 14.12 s [/tex]
Finalmente, el alcance horizontal es:
[tex]x = 40 m/s*14.12 s = 564.8 m[/tex]

Fish are hung on a spring scale to determine their mass (most fishermen feel no obligation to truthfully report the mass). What is the force constant of the spring in such a scale if it the spring stretches 8.50 cm for a 8.1 kg load
Answer:
k = 933.88 N/m
Explanation:
Given that,
The mass of a load, m = 8.1 kg
The displacement in the spring, x = 8.5 cm
We need to find the force constant of the spring. We know that Hooke's law is given by :
F = -kx
Also,
F = mg (Force due to its weight)
So,
[tex]k=\dfrac{mg}{x}\\\\k=\dfrac{8.1\times 9.8}{0.085}\\\\k=933.88\ N/m[/tex]
So, the force constant of the spring is equal to 933.88 N/m.

A beam strikes an irregular mirror and is reflected as shown below. The angle formed by the incoming beam and the reflected beam is 10 degrees. What is the angle of the mirror's surface (measured against vertical) at the location where the beam strikes the mirror?
A. The mirror's surface is angled 5 degrees upward where the laser strikes it.
B. The mirror's surface is angled 5 degrees downward where the laser strikes it.
C. The mirror's surface is angled 10 degrees upward where the laser strikes it.
D. The mirror's surface is angled 10 degrees downward where the laser strikes it.
Answer:
the correct answer is B
Explanation:
The law of reflection states that the angles of incidence and reflection on a surface are the same, the two rays and the normal are in the same part of the surface.
In this exercise indicate that the angle between the incident and reflected ray is 10, therefore the angle with respect to the normal that is a vertical line at the point of contact of the ray must be 5
Consequently the correct answer is B
Two people are sitting on wheeled chairs 1 metre apart. Person A is holding a 2kg ball. Person A throws the ball to Person. What happens to person A? Explain.
a.) their chair stays still
b.) chair rolls backwards
c.) chair rolls forwards
Answer:
B - Person A's chair rolls backwards.
Explanation:
This can be seen simply through the Conservation of Momentum. When the ball is thrown to be, the ball's momentum(+m) is transfererd to B, so B's chair moves forward(think about it - it makes sense, doesn't it?), meaning A's chair moves backwards.
So, B.

A truck covers 40 km with an average speed of 80km/h. Then it travels another 40 km with an average speed of 40 km/h. The average speed of the truck for the total distanced covered is:
Answer:
Average speed = 53.33 km/h
Explanation:
Below is the calculation for the average speed:
Given the average speed of for first 40 km = 80km/h
Time taken to cover the first 40 km = Total Distance / average speed
Time taken to cover the first 40 km = 40 / 80 = 0.5 hours
Given the average speed of for next 40 km = 40km/h
Time taken to cover the next 40 km = Total Distance / average speed
Time taken to cover the next 40 km = 40 / 40 = 1 hours
Now the average speed of the tuck to cover total distance:
Average speed = Total distance / Total time
Average speed = (40 + 40) / (0.5 + 1)
Average speed = 53.33 km/h
