A 10 kW drilling machine is used to drill a bore in a small aluminum block of mass 8.0 kg. How much is the rise in temperature of the block in 2.5 minutes, assuming 50 percent of power is used up in heating the machine itself or lost to the surroundings. Specific heat of aluminum = 0.91 J .
Energy used in heating = 50% =75 x 105J
There are three rules on determining how many significant figures are in a number:
So keeping these rules in mind, there are 4 significant digit
Assuming bigger pendulum as the pendulum of bigger time period i.e.having time period
As the two pendulums start at the same time in simple harmonic motion from the mean position,their initial phase angles are zero
The bigger pendulum completes its one oscillation in time and comes back to the mean position.During this time the point on reference circle associated with SHM rotates by an angle 2π
If ω represents the angular velocity of the reference point associated with SHM of first pendulum of time period T,then the phase of the this pendulum after s willbe
Hence the phase difference
= 90
Initial velocity u = 30 m/s
As it stops then final velocity v = 0 m/s
Time taken t = 2.0 s
We know,
v-u = at
=> 0-30= 2a
=> a =
-ve sign shows velocity is decreasing.
We know that at the maximum height, the velocity of the ball is 0 m/s.
We also know that the ball takes the same time to reach its maximum height as it takes to travel from its maximum height to the initial position, due to time symmetry. The time taken is half the total time.
Therefore, we have the following information for the second (downward) part of the motion of the ball:
t = 5 second; half the total time
g = 9.8 m/s2 downward
s = ?
As we know
s = ut+
Put all the given value,
=> s =
=> s = 122.5 m
A 1.0-kg bar of copper is heated at atmospheric pressure. If its temperature increases from 20C to 50C, what is the work done by the copper on the surrounding atmosphere? Given that for Cu = 5.1 x 10-5 / C,
A man of mass 70 kg stands on a weighing scale in a lift which is moving upwards with a uniform speed of 10 m . What would be the reading if the lift mechanism failed and it hurtled down freely under gravity?
When the lift falls freely under gravity, a=g
Therefore Apparent weight,
This is the condition of weightlessness.
