If the size of the triangle are 1.01 m long, find the magnitude of the net force exerted on each of the three masses. How does your answer to part A change if the size of the triangle are doubled in length?arrow_forwardThe picture on the right shows a plate capacitor. You may assume that the two plates are very large compared to the separation between the plates (i.e. you may treat them as 'infinite' planes). The plates are charged to +Q, each plate has an area of A, and the plates are separated by a distance d. The x-axis in this problem is pointing from the negative to the positive plate, with the origin at the negative plate. The electric field at point 2 has a magnitude of E.

Answer = .716 sarrow_forwardwo blocks are connected by a massless string, as shown in the diagram. The masses of the blocks are m1 = 2.5 kg and m2 = 2.5 kg. Block 1 is on a table, moving in a circular path with a constant radius of 1.5 meters at a constant speed. There is no friction between block 1 and the table. What is the speed of block 1?arrow_forwardConsider the roller coaster ride shown below. Herer1=17.4m and r2=29m. Imagine that the car is traveling traveling with a constant speed of v=8.9 m/s throughout the whole ride. If the mass of a child riding the car is 20.1kg, determine the apparent weight of a child at point B. Express your answer using Sl unit with zero decimal place. Take g=9.80 m/s?. T2arrow_forward

Include a sketch of the system (with a coordinate system) and a free body diagram.arrow_forwardA 450.0 kg roller coaster is traveling in a circle with radius 15.0m.

- Tommy is working on a physics problem and asks his friend Sarah to check his work. He is to draw a free body diagram for a man walking to the left and comes up with the following: He reasons, “The man is walking to the left, so the force of friction is acting in the opposite direction. The normal force should be opposite and equal to that of the gravitational force.” Is Tommy correct with his diagram and reasoning? If so, explain. If not, what mistake did he make? Communication throughout the test will also be evaluated on 1) rounding using significant digits, 2) proper use of units, 3) organization and neatness, and 4) showing all workarrow_forwardA snake of length L and linear mass density p rises from the table. It's head is moving straight up with the constant velocity v. 1. What is the normal force that the snake exert on the table? 2. What is the tangential (parallel to the surface of the table) force that the snake exert on the table? 3. What is the minimal coefficient of friction between the snake and the table which would allow the snake to raise like that? 4. What is the total mechanical work which the snake will have done when it rises full length?arrow_forwardDraw free-body diagrams for these situations. Be sure to draw your coordinate axes and draw separate FBDs for everything in the system and to write out the ? F = m a equations in all relevant dimensions.
