On the adapter, Vout is 12Vdc but when I measured it with a voltmeter it shows 19.5V. Is there a typo or does the voltage somehow drops down to 12V when in use with a load?
Hi all, I'm in my first year of university physics (mechanics and waves) and am stuck on an assignment question. The question itself is not complicated, but I feel as though I'm skipping over something important. The question is:
A 3.8 kg block is pressed against a vertical wall by a force...
I know nothing about math/engineering, so I apologize if this isn't the proper place to post this question. Maybe I should be in a builder's forum or something. :confused: Anyways...
I'm building a round retaining wall on a slope at the corner of my house. I'm using stackable bricks that...
I'm stuck on this Thermo question dealing with heat transfer through a "plain wall"
They give us the area of the transfer A = 1 m^2
They give us the thickness of the wall L = .2 m
and they give us the rate of steady state energy transfer rate Qx = .15 kW
They then ask, if the temperature...
dont know how else to word the title but here's the problem:
you are in a train traveling on a straight and flat track (just assume its going right to left for my explanation) at 3.0 m/s. your window is 0.9 m high by 2.0 m wide and as you look out, the wall is going up at a 12 degree slope...
A uniform ladder of length L leans against a smooth (no friction) wall. The floor is also smooth (no friction) and the ladder makes an angle of Theta-0 with the floor when the ladder is installed at rest.
a) Before the ladder leaves the wall, express the equations of motion of the ladder in...
Hello,
Below are two questions i am unsure of. :rolleyes: Can someone please verify my answers and tell me if i am doing something wrong. thank-you for your help. :smile:
1. A rigid beam 30 m long is leaning against a vertical wall. If the bottom of the beam is pulled horizontally...
I am developing a rubbery serpentine wall as a highway median barrier and I need to know the tensile strength necessary to hold against a 4400 lb pickup moving 62.5 mph. Using an excel spreadsheet and iterations, I subtract the momentum of the wall from that of the pickup at 2 foot intervals...
A cubic metal box with sides 32.0 cm contains air at a pressure of 1.00 atm and a temperature of 294 K. The box is sealed so that the volume is constant and it is heated to a temperature of 396K. Find the force on each wall of the box due to the increased pressure within the box. [The outside...
OK, so this appears to be a very simple problem... but I can't seem to find the way to do it... Anyway the problem is:
A uniform 6.74 m long ladder of mass 15.6 kg leans against a smooth wall (so the force exerted by the wall, FW, is perpendicular to the wall). The ladder makes an angle =...
A 15m ladder weighing 500N rests against a frictionless wall. The ladder makes a 60 degree angle with the horizontal. I need to find the horizontal and vertical force that the ground exerts on the base of the ladder when an 800N firefighter is 4m from the bottom.
the total mg down is 1300N. I...
The wall behind me in my office is about 10 feet across and about 12 feet high. The top part of it consists of a window panel that is about 10 feet across x 4 feet high. There doesn't seem to be any insulation in the wall and it doesn't block the sound very well (well, almost not at all) coming...
First off let me say I am completely stumped. I don't remember teacher teaching this, and its definitely not in book(I went through it 3 or 4 times) and its not even the same book mastering physics uses...

In Victor Hugo's Les Miserables, the main character Jean Valjean, an escaped prisoner, was noted for his ability to climb up the corner formed by the intersection of two vertical perpendicular walls. Find the minimum force with which he had to push the walls (assume both hands are to exert the...
I'm stumped on this question:
A ball of mass m moving with velocity v_i strikes a vertical wall. The angle between the ball's initial velocity vector and the wall is theta_i as shown on the diagram. The duration of the collision between the ball and the wall is delta t, and this collision is...
If a piece of fabric was stretched out, and I pushed my finger into the fabric with a force of 5N, the fabric will push back the 5N because of its potential energy. correct?
So what if I did the the same thing and pushed my finger agaist a wall? The wall doesn't stretch but it still pushs...
Here it is:
A 2000-kg car traveling at 85.0 km/h crashes into a concrete wall that does not give at all. Estimate the time of the collision, assuming that the center of the car travels halfway to the wall with constant deceleration. (Use 5.75 m for the length of the car.)
I know I need to...
Can someone please help me with this problem? I've tried a few different things but none of them worked...
The weight of the block in the drawing is 99.0 N. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the vertical wall is 0.510.

Apparently, if all your particles are primed for tunnelling through a wall then you can walk through it, but the probability of all your particles tunnelling simultaneously is so low that you would have to attempt it more times than the age of the universe in years. Could someone please explain...
Help,
I have to switch off my PC at the wall socket and reboot to get
onto the internet , everything used to work OK.
I have, SUSE 9.1, D link router and use Tiscali.
Thanks.

What are your views on the wall?
My view: It's been nicknamed the "Apartheid Wall" and it dwarfs the Berlin Wall. It's just a massive symbol of oppression which should not exist in todays's society. Why they were allowed...

I am trying to find the kinematics of a car collision with a wall. To calculate the damages, should I take into account the momentum or work done?
In other words, is this proportional to velocity or square of the velocity?
Thanks,

Question:
A 41 g bullet, with horizontal velocity of 496 m/s, stops 13cm within a soid wall. What is the magnitue of the average Force from the wall stopping it?
This is how i tried to solve it
Vi = 496, Vf=0, and Xf-Xi=.13m
So Vf^2=Vi^2+2a(Xf-Xi)
Which =...
A cell wall is a rigid structure, so I wonder how organisms with such a structure are able to take up nutrients from their environment?
If there is only a plasma membrane, vesicles can be formed which pinch off and thus take up nutrients from the environment and merge with other vesicles to...
a 2.5 kg ball strikes a wall with a velocity of 8.5 m/s to the left. The ball bounces off with a velocity of 7.5 m/s to the right. If the ball is in contact with the wall for .25s, what is the constant force exerted on the ball by the wall?
A uniform solid disk of mass M and radius R hangs from a string of length l attached to a smooth wall. We want the tension in the string and the normal force exerted by the wall.
