Answer:
9.9 m/s
Explanation:
t = Time taken
u = Initial velocity
v = Final velocity
s = Displacement
a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²
[tex]v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2as+u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 5+0^2}\\\Rightarrow v=9.9\ m/s[/tex]
If the body has started from rest then the initial velocity is 0. In order to find the velocity just before hitting the water then the distance at which the downward motion stops is irrelevant.
Hence, the speed of the diver just before striking the water is 9.9 m/s
The speed of the diver just before striking the water is 11.88 m/s.
Explanation:To calculate the speed of the diver just before striking the water, we can use the concept of conservation of energy. At the top of the dive, the diver has potential energy, which is converted to kinetic energy as the diver falls. When the diver reaches the surface of the water, all of the potential energy has been converted to kinetic energy. We can use the equations for potential and kinetic energy to solve for the speed of the diver.
Given the height of the diving board (5.0 m) and the depth the diver stops (2.2 m below the surface), we can calculate the total distance the diver falls (5.0 m + 2.2 m = 7.2 m). Using the equations for potential energy (PE = mgh) and kinetic energy (KE = 0.5mv^2), we can set the two equal to each other and solve for the speed (v) of the diver:
PE = KE
mgh = 0.5mv^2
mg(7.2 m) = 0.5mv^2
gh = 0.5v^2
v^2 = 2gh
v = sqrt(2gh)
Substituting the values for g (acceleration due to gravity) and h (height of fall), we can calculate the speed of the diver:
v = sqrt(2 * 9.8 m/s^2 * 7.2 m) = sqrt(141.12) m/s = 11.88 m/s
An Airbus A380 airliner can takeoff when its speed reaches 80 m/s. Suppose its engines together can produce an acceleration of 3 m/s. (a) How long does it take the plane to accelerate from 0 m/s to 80 m/s? (b) What is the distance traveled during this period?
Answer:
(a). The time is 26.67 sec.
(b). The distance traveled during this period is 1066.9 m.
Explanation:
Given that,
Speed = 80 m/s
Acceleration = 3 m/s
Initial velocity = 0
(a). We need to calculate the time
Using equation of motion
[tex]v = u+at[/tex]
[tex]t = \dfrac{v-u}{a}[/tex]
Put the value into the formula
[tex]t = \dfrac{80-0}{3}[/tex]
[tex]t =26.67\ sec[/tex]
The time is 26.67 sec.
(b). We need to calculate the distance traveled during this period
Using equation of motion
[tex]s = ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2[/tex]
[tex]s = 0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times3\times(26.67)^2[/tex]
[tex]s =1066.9\ m[/tex]
The distance traveled during this period is 1066.9 m.
Hence, This is the required solution.
You throw a ball straight down from an apartment balcony to the ground below. The ball has an initial velocity of 5.10 m/s, directed downward, and it hits the ground 1.92 s after it is released. Find the height of the balcony.
Answer:
the height of the balcony from where the ball is thrown is 27.874 m.
Explanation:
given,
initial velocity (u) = 5.1 m/s
time (t) = 1.92 s
height of balcony = ?
using equation;
[tex]s = u t + \dfrac{1}{2} at^2[/tex]
[tex]h =5.1 \times 1.92 + \dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times 1.92^2[/tex]
h= 9.792 + 18.082
h = 27.874 m
hence, the height of the balcony from where the ball is thrown is 27.874 m.
Final answer:
Using the kinematic equations of motion, we find that the ball was thrown from a height of approximately 8.211 meters.
Explanation:
To calculate the height from which the ball was thrown, we use the kinematic equations of motion for an object under constant acceleration due to gravity. The specific equation that relates the initial velocity (Vi), time (t), acceleration due to gravity (g), and the displacement (height h in this case) is:
h = Vi * t + 0.5 * g * t2
Where:
Vi is the initial velocity = 5.10 m/s (downward, so we take it as negative)t is the time = 1.92 sg is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s2 (downward, so we take it as positive)Plugging in these values, we get:
h = -5.10 m/s * 1.92 s + 0.5 * 9.81 m/s2 * (1.92 s)2
h = -9.792 m + 18.003 m
h = 8.211 m
Therefore, the height of the balcony is approximately 8.211 meters above the ground.
Suppose a single electron orbits about a nucleus containing two protons (+2e), as would be the case for a helium atom from which one of the naturally occurring electrons is removed. The radius of the orbit is 2.99 × 10-11 m. Determine the magnitude of the electron's centripetal acceleration.
Answer:
[tex]a=5.66*10^{23} \frac{m}{s^2}[/tex]
Explanation:
In this case we will use the Bohr Atomic model.
We have that: [tex]F=m*a[/tex]
We can calculate the centripetal force using the coulomb formula that states:
[tex]F=k*\frac{q*q'}{r^2}[/tex]
Where K=[tex]9*10^9 \frac{Nm^2}{C}[/tex]
and r is the distance.
Now we can say:
[tex]m*a=k*\frac{q*q'}{r^2}[/tex]
The mass of the electron is = [tex]9.1*10^{-31}[/tex] Kg
The charge magnitud of an electron and proton are= [tex]1.6*10^{-19}C[/tex]
Substituting what we have:
[tex][tex]a=\frac{9*10^{9}*(1.6*10^{-19} )*(2(1.6*10^{-19} ))}{9.1*10^{-31}*(2.99*10^{-11})^2 }[/tex][/tex]
so:
[tex]a=5.66*10^{23} \frac{m}{s^2}[/tex]
An ice skater rotating about a vertical axis increases her angular velocity at constant rate from 7.85 rad/s to 10.65 rad/s in 2.3 s, thus her angular acceleration is 1.23 rad/s^2. During her rotation, her right leg outstretched horizontally. Calculate the radial ______ and tangential ______ accelerations of her skate at the end of 2.3 s. Her leg length is 90 cm.
Answer:
(a). The tangential acceleration is 1.107 m/s².
(b). The radial acceleration is 102.08 m/s².
Explanation:
Given that,
Initial angular velocity = 7.85 rad/s
Final angular velocity = 10.65 rad/s
Time = 2.3 s
Acceleration = 1.23 rad/s²
Radius = 90 cm
(a). We need to calculate the tangential acceleration
Using formula of radial acceleration
[tex]a_{t}=\alpha R[/tex]
Put the value into the formula
[tex]a_{t}=1.23\times90\times10^{-2}[/tex]
[tex]a_{t}=1.107\ m/s^2[/tex]
The tangential acceleration is 1.107 m/s².
(b). We need to calculate the radial acceleration
Using formula of radial acceleration
[tex]a_{c}=\omega^2 r[/tex]
Put the value into the formula
[tex]a_{c}=(10.65)^2\times90\times10^{-2}[/tex]
[tex]a_{c}=102.08\ m/s^2[/tex]
Hence, (a). The tangential acceleration is 1.107 m/s².
(b). The radial acceleration is 102.08 m/s².
A 26.0 g copper ring at 0°C has an inner diameter of D = 3.71382 cm. A hollow aluminum sphere at 83.0°C has a diameter of d = 3.72069 cm. The sphere is placed on top of the ring (see the figure), and the two are allowed to come to thermal equilibrium, with no heat lost to the surroundings. The sphere just passes through the ring at the equilibrium temperature. What is the mass of the sphere? The linear expansion coefficient of aluminum is 23.0 × 10^-6 /C°, the linear expansion coefficient of copper is 17.0 × 10^-6 /C°, the specific heat of aluminum is 900 J/kg*K, and the specific heat of copper is 386 J/kg*K.
Answer:
1.6 g
Explanation:
When they change temperatures their diameters will change following these equations:
D'(t1) = D(t0) * (1 + a(Cu) * (t1 - t0(Cu)))
d'(t1) = d(t0) * (1 + a(Al) * (t1 - t0(Al)))
The sphere goes inside the ring when they are at thermal equilibrium (at the same temperature, which is t1). Their diameters will be the same.
D'(t1) = d'(t1)
D(t0) * (1 + a(Cu) * (t1 - t0(Cu))) = d(t0) * (1 + a(Al) * (t1 - t0(Al)))
D(t0) + D(t0) * a(Cu) * t1 - D(t0) * a(Cu) * t0(Cu) = d(t0) + d(t0) * a(Al) * t1 - d(t0) * a(Al) * t0(Al)
D(t0) * a(Cu) * t1 - d(t0) * a(Al) * t1 = D(t0) * a(Cu) * t0(Cu) - d(t0) * a(Al) * t0(Al) - D(t0) + d(t0)
(D(t0) * a(Cu) - d(t0) * a(Al)) * t1 = D(t0) * a(Cu) * t0(Cu) - d(t0) * a(Al) * t0(Al) - D(t0) + d(t0)
t1 = (D(t0) * a(Cu) * t0(Cu) - d(t0) * a(Al) * t0(Al) - D(t0) + d(t0)) / (D(t0) * a(Cu) - d(t0) * a(Al))
t1 = (3.71382 * 17*10^-6 * 0) - 3.72069 * 23*10^-6 * 83 - 3.71382 + 3.72069) / (3.71382 * 17*10^-6 - 3.72069 * 23*10^-6)
t1 = 10.37 C
To reach this temperature they both exchange heat.
Q(Al) + Q(Cu) = 0
The copper will gain heat (positive) and the aluminum will lose heat (negative)
Q(Al) = -Q(Cu)
mAl * CpAl * (t1 - t0Al) = - mCu * CpCu* (t1 - t0Cu)
mAl = -(mCu * CpCu* (t1 - t0Cu)) / (CpAl * (t1 - t0Al))
mAl = -(0.026 * 386 * (10.37 - 0)) / (900 * (10.37 - 83))
mAl = 1.6*10^-3 kg = 1.6 g

Now since the energy of the particle changes from 20 Joules to 11 Joules as position changes from x=0 to x=3.00 thus applying the given vales in above relation we get
[tex]11-20=\int_{0}^{3}(cx-3x^{2})\cdot dx\\\\-9=[\frac{cx^2}{2}]_0^3-[\frac{3x^3}{3}]_0^3\\\\-9=\frac{9c}{2}-27\\\\4.5c=18\\\\\therefore c=4[/tex]
To charge an electroscope negatively by induction you need: a) a positively charged rod and a ground b) a negatively charged rod c) a negatively charged rod and a ground d) two objects of the same charge
Answer:
Option a)
Explanation:
In the process of charging anything by the method of induction, a charged body is brought near to the body which is neutral or uncharged without any physical contact and the ground must be provided to the uncharged body.
The charge is induced and the nature of the induced charge is opposite to that of the charge present on the charged body.
So when a positively charged rod is used to charge an electroscope, the rod which is positive attracts the negative charge in the electroscope and the grounding of the electroscope ensures the removal of the positive charge and renders the electroscope negatively charged.
Final answer:
To charge an electroscope negatively by induction, you need a negatively charged rod and a ground. When a positively charged rod is brought near a neutral metal sphere, it polarizes the sphere and attracts electrons from the earth's ample supply. By breaking the ground connection and removing the positive rod, the sphere is left with an induced negative charge.
Explanation:
To charge an electroscope negatively by induction, you need a negatively charged rod and a ground. When a positively charged rod is brought near a neutral metal sphere (the electroscope), it polarizes the sphere. By connecting the sphere to a ground, electrons are attracted from the earth's ample supply, resulting in an induced negative charge on the sphere. The ground connection is then broken, and the positive rod is removed, leaving the sphere with the induced negative charge.
Measurements indicate that there is an electric field surrounding the Earth. Its magnitude is about 150 N/C at the Earth's surface and points inward toward the Earth's center. What is the magnitude of the electric charge on the Earth? Express your answer using two significant figures.
Answer:
Magnitude of electric field on Earth = Q = 6.8 × 10⁵ C
Explanation:
Electric field = E = 150 N/C
Distance from the center of the earth to the surface = Radius of the earth
Radius of the earth = R = 6.38× 10⁶ m
E = k Q / R² is the basic formula for the electric field. k = 9 × 10⁹ N m²/C²
150 = (9 × 10⁹)(Q) / (6.38× 10⁶ )²
⇒ Charge = Q = (150)(6.38× 10⁶ )²/(9 × 10⁹)
= 6.8 × 10⁵ C(2 significant figures).
Answer:
The charge of earth is[tex]-6.8\times 10^{5}Columbs[/tex]
Explanation:
Assuming earth as a spherical body we have
For a sphere of radius 'r' and charge 'q' the electric field generated at a distance 'r' form the center of sphere is given by the equation
[tex]E=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon _o }\cdot \frac{Q}{r^{2}}[/tex]
where
'Q' is the total charge on sphere
Now at a distance 'r' equal to radius of earth(6371 km) we have the electric field strength is 150N/C
Using the given values we obtain
[tex]150=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon _o}\frac{Q}{(6371\times 10^{3})^2}\\\\\therefore Q=150\times (6371\times 10^{3})^{2}\times 4\pi \epsilon _o\\\\\therefore Q=6.8\times 10^{5}Columbs[/tex]
Now since the electric field is inwards thus we conclude that this charge is negative in magnitude.
Your 300 mL cup of coffee is too hot to drink when served at 87.0 degrees Celsius. What is the mass of the ice cube, taken from a -15.0 degrees Celsius freezer, that will cool your coffee to a pleasant 65 degrees Celsius?
The mass of an ice cube that would bring coffee to 65 degrees Celsius from 87 degrees Celsius is determined via the principles of heat transfer. This involves considering the ice warming, phase change and water warming steps and setting this total heat to be equal to the heat lost by the coffee which results in calculating the mass of the ice.
Explanation:To find out the mass of an ice cube that would cool down the coffee to 65 degrees Celsius from 87 degrees Celsius, we need to use the principles of heat transfer, specific heat capacities, and phase changes. Knowing that ice comes from a -15.0 degrees Celsius freezer it has to first warm up from -15C to 0C (icing warming), then melt at 0C (phase change), and the resulted water to be warmed from 0C to 65C (water warming). The sum of the heat absorbed during these three steps will be equal to the heat lost by the coffee.
During icing warming and water warming we use q=m*c*ΔT where m is the mass we don't know, c is the specific heat capacity (2.09 J/g°C for ice and 4.18 J/g°C for water) and ΔT is the change in temperature. During phase change we use q=m*L where m is the mass we are looking for and L is the heat of fusion of water 334 J/g.
Setting the sum of three heats equal to the heat lost by the coffee q=m*c*ΔT where mass is known (300g because density of coffee is similar to water's), c is again 4.18 J/g°C and ΔT is the change in temperature of the coffee, we can find out the mass of the ice cube needed.

Suppose the ends of a 27-m-long steel beam are rigidly clamped at 0°C to prevent expansion. The rail has a cross-sectional area of 35 cm^2. What force does the beam exert when it is heated to 39°C? (αsteel = 1.1 × 10^−5/C°, Ysteel = 2.0 × 10^11 N/m^2).
Answer:
F = 1.58*10^{11} N
Explanation:
given data:
length of steel beam = 27 m
cross sectional area of rail = 35 cm
[tex]\Delta T = 39[/tex] Degree celcius
change in length of steel beam is given as
[tex]\Delta L = L_O \alpha \Delta T[/tex]
[tex]= 20*1.1*10^{-5}*39[/tex]
[tex] =8.58*10^{-3}[/tex] m
Young's modulus is
[tex]Y = \frac{FL}{A\Delta L}[/tex]
[tex]F = \frac{ YA\Delta L}{L}[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{2.0*10^{11}*25*10^{-4}8.58*10^{-3}}{27}[/tex]
F = 1.58*10^{11} N
Final answer:
The force exerted by the steel beam when it is heated to 39°C is approximately 9,191 N.
Explanation:
To calculate the force that the beam exerts when it is heated, we can use the formula for thermal expansion:
ΔL = αLΔT
where ΔL is the change in length, α is the coefficient of linear expansion, L is the original length, and ΔT is the change in temperature.
In this case, the original length of the beam is 27m, the coefficient of linear expansion for steel is 1.1 × 10^−5/C°, and the change in temperature is 39°C - 0°C = 39°C.
Plugging in these values, we can calculate the change in length:
ΔL = (1.1 × 10^−5/C°)(27m)(39°C) = 0.011m
Next, we can calculate the change in cross-sectional area due to the expansion:
ΔA = αAΔT
where ΔA is the change in cross-sectional area, α is the coefficient of linear expansion, A is the original cross-sectional area, and ΔT is the change in temperature.
In this case, the original cross-sectional area of the beam is 35cm², the coefficient of linear expansion for steel is 1.1 × 10^−5/C°, and the change in temperature is 39°C - 0°C = 39°C.
Plugging in these values, we can calculate the change in cross-sectional area:
ΔA = (1.1 × 10^−5/C°)(35cm²)(39°C) = 0.015cm²
Next, we can use Hooke's Law to calculate the stress:
σ = F/A
where σ is the stress, F is the force, and A is the cross-sectional area.
In this case, the change in force is equal to the change in stress times the change in area:
ΔF = σΔA
Since the cross-sectional area changes and the force is equal to the change in force plus the initial force:
F = ΔF + σA
Substituting the values we know, we can calculate the force:
F = (σΔA) + (YAΔL)
where Y is the Young's modulus for steel.
Plugging in these values, we can calculate the force:
F = (σΔA) + (Y(0.011m)(35cm²))
Finally, we can calculate the force:
F = (σΔA) + (Y(0.011m)(35cm²)) = (σ(0.015cm²)) + (2.0 × 10^11 N/m²(0.011m)(35cm²))
After performing the calculations, we find that the force exerted by the beam when it is heated to 39°C is approximately 9,191 N.
A small bead with a positive charge q is free to slide on a horizontal wire of length 4.5 cm . At the left end of the wire is a fixed charge q, and at the right end is a fixed charge 4q. How far from the left end of the wire does the bead come to rest?
Answer:
1.5cm
Explanation:
The place where the bead will come to rest is the place where the force between the left charge and the bead is the same, but in opposite direction, as he force between the right charge and the bead.
[tex]F_{left} = F_{right}\\K\frac{q_{left}*q_b}{r_{left}^2} =K\frac{q_{right}*q_b}{r_{right}^2}[/tex]
Also:
[tex]r_{left}+r_{right}=0.045m\\r_{right} = 0.045m-r_{left}[/tex]
[tex]q_{left}= q\\q_{right}=4q[/tex]
So, we replace and simplify. Notice that the charges and the Coulomb constant will cancel:
[tex]K\frac{q_{left}*q_b}{r_{left}^2} =K\frac{q_{right}*q_b}{r_{right}^2}\\\frac{q*q}{r_{left}^2} = \frac{4q*q}{(0.045m-r_{left})^2}\\(0.045m-r_{left})^2 =4r_{left}^2\\0.002025m - 2*0.045r_{left} + r_{left}^2 = 4r_{left}^2\\3r_{left}^2 + 0.09r_{left} - 0.002025m = 0[/tex]
[tex]r_{left} = \frac{-(0.09)+-\sqrt{(0.09)^2-4*(3)(-0.002025)}}{2(3)}\\ r_{left} = 0.015m| -0.045m[/tex]
But the only solution that would place the bead on the wire is 0.015m or 1.5cm, so this is our answer.

Explanation:
We find the x-y components for the given vectors:
i: unit vector in x direction

D₁: Displacement Vector 1
D₂: Displacement Vector 2
R= resulta displacement vector
D₁= 152*cos110°(i)+152*sin110°(j)=-51.99i+142.83j
D₂= -D₂(i)-D₂(j)
R= 131*cos38°(i)+ 131*sin38°(j) = 103.23i+80.65j
We propose the vector equation for sum of vectors:
D₁+ D₂= R
-51.99i+142.83j+D₂x(i)-D₂y(j) = 103.23i+80.65j
-51.99i+D₂x(i)=103.23i
D₂x=103.23+51.99=155.22 cm
+142.83j-D₂y(j) =+80.65j
D₂y=142.83-80.65=62.18 cm
Magnitude and direction of the second displacement
[tex]D_{2} =\sqrt{(D_{x})^{2} +(D_{y} )^{2} }[/tex]
[tex]D_{2} =\sqrt{(155.22)^{2} +(62.18 )^{2} }[/tex]
D₂= 167.21 cm
Direction of the second displacement
[tex]\beta = tan^{-1} \frac{D_{y}}{D_{x} }[/tex]
[tex]\beta = tan^{-1} \frac{62.18}{155.22 }[/tex]
β= 21.8°

β= 21.8.° , countercockwise from the positive x-axis: Direction of the second displacement
The human circulatory system is closed - that is, the blood pumped out of the left ventricle of the heart into the arteries is constrained to a series of continuous, branching vessels as it passes through the capillaries and then into the veins as it returns to the heart. The blood in each of the hearts four chambers comes briefly to rest before it is ejected by contraction of the heart muscle. The contraction of the left ventricle lasts 250 ms and the speed of blood flow in the aorta (the large artery leaving the heart) is 0.80 m/s at the end of the contraction.
What is the average acceleration of a red blood cell as it leaves the heart?
Answer:
3.2 m/s²
Explanation:
Initial velocity of the red blood cell = 0 m/s = u
Initial velocity of the red blood cell = 0.8 m/s = v
Time taken by the red blood cell to reach its final velocity = 250 ms = t
Equation of motion
[tex]v=u+at\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v-u}{t}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{0.8-0}{250\times 10^{-3}}\\\Rightarrow a=3.2\ m/s^2[/tex]
Average acceleration of a red blood cell as it leaves the heart is 3.2 m/s²
The average acceleration of a red blood cell as it leaves the heart, based on given velocity and time, is calculated to be 3.2 m/s².
Explanation:To calculate the average acceleration of a red blood cell as it leaves the heart, we can use the formula for acceleration: a = Δv/Δt. Δv is the change in velocity, and Δt is the change in time. Here, the initial velocity of the blood cell is assumed to be zero, and the final velocity is 0.80 m/s, as given in the question. The change in time is the duration of the contraction of the left ventricle, which is 250 ms, or 0.25 sec. So we have:
a = (0.80 m/s - 0 m/s) / 0.25 s = 3.2 m/s²
Therefore, the average acceleration of a red blood cell as it leaves the heart is 3.2 meters per second squared (m/s²).

Now,
When sphere A with 'q' charge is brought in contact with B then conduction takes place and equal charges are distributed on both the spheres as:
[tex]\frac{q + q}{2} = \frac{q}{2}[/tex]
Charge on each A and B is [tex]\frac{q}{2}[/tex]
Now, after separating both the spheres, when sphere B with charge [tex]\frac{q}{2}[/tex] touches uncharged sphere C, again conduction occurs and the charge is distributed as:
[tex]\frac{\frac{q}{4} + \frac{q}{4}}{2} = \frac{q}{4}[/tex]
Now, after the charges are separated with charge [tex]\frac{q}{4}[/tex] on each sphere B and C
Now,
When sphere A and Sphere C with charge [tex]\frac{q}{2}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{q}{4}[/tex] comes in contact with each other, conduction takes place and charge distribution is given as:
[tex]\frac{\frac{q}{2} + \frac{q}{4}}{2} = \frac{3q}{8}[/tex]

A proton is released from rest inside a region of constant, uniform electric field E1 pointing due North. 32.3 seconds after it is released, the electric field instantaneously changes to a constant, uniform electric field E2 pointing due South. 3.45 seconds after the field changes, the proton has returned to its starting point. What is the ratio of the magnitude of E2 to the magnitude of E1? You may neglect the effects of gravity on the proton.
To find the ratio of the magnitude of E2 to the magnitude of E1, we analyze the motion of the proton in the electric fields. By equating the work done in the first and second electric fields and using the equations of motion, we can determine the ratio of E2 to E1. The ratio is -1.
Explanation:To find the ratio of the magnitude of E2 to the magnitude of E1, we need to analyze the motion of the proton in the electric fields. Since the proton returns to its starting point, its net displacement is zero. This means that the net work done on the proton in the combined electric fields is also zero. Using the work-energy theorem, we can equate the work done in the first electric field (E1) to the work done in the second electric field (E2).
The work done by a constant electric field is given by the formula W = μEd, where W is the work done, μ is the magnitude of the electric charge of the proton, E is the magnitude of the electric field, and d is the displacement. Since the displacement is zero, the work done in both fields is zero. Therefore, we have the equation: μE1d₁ + μE2d₂ = 0.
Since the proton is released from rest, its initial velocity is zero. Using the equation of motion, v = u + at, where v is the final velocity (which is also zero), u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and t is the time, we can solve for the times taken in each field: t₁ = 32.3 s and t₂ = 3.45 s.
We can rewrite the equation as: E₁d₁ = -E₂d₂.
Using the equation of motion, d = ut + 0.5at², we can substitute the values of t₁ and t₂ to obtain: d₁ = 0.5a₁t₁² and d₂ = 0.5a₂t₂².
Substituting these values into the equation, we get: E₁(0.5a₁t₁²) = -E₂(0.5a₂t₂²).
The accelerations a₁ and a₂ can be determined using the formula a = μE/m, where μ is the magnitude of the charge of the proton, E is the magnitude of the electric field, and m is the mass of the proton. Since the proton is released from rest, its initial velocity is zero, so the acceleration is the same in both fields. Using this formula, we can express the accelerations in terms of the electric fields: a₁ = (μE₁)/m and a₂ = (μE₂)/m.
Substituting these values into the equation, we get: E₁(0.5((μE₁)/m)t₁²) = -E₂(0.5((μE₂)/m)t₂²). Simplifying the equation, we have: E₁²t₁² = -E₂²t₂².
Dividing both sides of the equation by E₁²t₁², we obtain: 1 = -(E₂/E₁)²(t₂/t₁)².
Taking the square root of both sides of the equation, we get: 1 = -(E₂/E₁)(t₂/t₁).
Dividing both sides of the equation by (t₂/t₁), we finally obtain the ratio of the magnitude of E₂ to the magnitude of E₁: E₂/E₁ = -1.

Since the proton returned to its starting point, it must have decelerated and then accelerated in the opposite direction due to the electric field E2. Upon calculation, we found that the electric field E2 must be zero. Therefore, the ratio of the magnitude of E2 to E1 is 0.
Explanation:The problem given can be resolved using the principles of Electromagnetism and Classical mechanics. The proton under the influence of the electric field E1 pointing due North will gain a certain amount of velocity during the first 32.3 seconds. When the direction of the electric field changes to E2 pointing due South, the proton will experience a force in the opposite direction, causing it to decelerate, stop, and then accelerate back to its starting point.
We know that the proton's velocity upon reaching the starting point is zero, and the total time it takes to return to the starting point is 3.45 seconds. Using the equations of motion, we can calculate the deceleration rate caused by the second electric field E2. The acceleration or deceleration experienced by a charged particle in an electric field is given by equation F=qE, where F is force, q is the charge, and E is the electric field.
Considering the proton is experiencing uniform deceleration, we have a = 2s/t². We know s=0 (as it returns to the same point) and the time t = 3.45s. From this, we can find a = 2*0/(3.45)² = 0 m/s². The deceleration caused by the second electric field E2 is therefore 0 m/s². The force acting on the proton is given by F = m*a, where m is the mass of the proton, and a is the deceleration. Since a = 0, F = 0. We know from the equation F = qE, the electric field E2 must be zero. Therefore, the ratio of the magnitude of E2 to E1 is 0.

What are the sign and magnitude of a point charge that produces an electric potential of −2.36 V at a distance of 2.93 mm?
Answer:
q = -7.691 × [tex]10^{-13}[/tex] C
so magnitude of charge is 7.691 × [tex]10^{-13}[/tex] C
and negative sign mean charge is negative potential
Explanation:
given data
electric potential = −2.36 V
distance = 2.93 mm = 2.93 × [tex]10^{-3}[/tex] m
to find out
What are the sign and magnitude of a point charge
solution
we know here that electric potential due to charge is
V = [tex]k\frac{q}{r}[/tex] ..............................1
here k is coulomb force that is 8.99 ×[tex]10^{9}[/tex] Nm²/C² and r is distance and q is charge and V is electric potential
put here all value we get q in equation 1
V = [tex]k\frac{q}{r}[/tex]
-2.36 = [tex]8.99*10^{9} \frac{q}{2.93*10^{-3}}[/tex]
q = -7.691 × [tex]10^{-13}[/tex] C
so magnitude of charge is 7.691 × [tex]10^{-13}[/tex] C
and negative sign mean charge is negative potential
The electric potential is negative, indicating that the charge is negative. So, the point charge is a negative charge with a magnitude of [tex]\( 7.68 \times 10^{-12} \) C.[/tex]
To find the sign and magnitude of the point charge ( q ) that produces an electric potential of ( -2.36 ) V at a distance of [tex]\( 2.93 \) mm (\( 2.93 \times 10^{-3} \) m)[/tex], we can use the formula for the electric potential created by a point charge:
[tex]\[ V = \frac{k \cdot |q|}{r} \][/tex]
where:
- ( V ) is the electric potential (given as ( -2.36 ) V),
- ( k ) is Coulomb's constant [tex](\( 8.99 \times 10^9 \, \text{N m}^2/\text{C}^2 \)),[/tex]
- |q| is the magnitude of the point charge we want to find, and
- ( r ) is the distance from the point charge to the point where the electric potential is being measured (given as [tex]\( 2.93 \times 10^{-3} \) m[/tex]).
Rearranging the equation to solve for |q|, we get:
[tex]\[ |q| = \frac{V \cdot r}{k} \[/tex]]
Substituting the given values, we have:
[tex]\[ |q| = \frac{-2.36 \times 2.93 \times 10^{-3}}{8.99 \times 10^9} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ |q| = \frac{-2.36 \times 2.93 \times 10^{-3}}{8.99 \times 10^9} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ |q| \approx 7.68 \times 10^{-12} \, \text{C} \][/tex]
Now, the electric potential is negative, indicating that the charge is negative. So, the point charge is a negative charge with a magnitude of [tex]\( 7.68 \times 10^{-12} \) C.[/tex]
Light in vacuum is incident on the surface of a slab of transparent material. In the vacuum the beam makes an angle of 39.9° with the normal to the surface, while in the slab it makes an angle of 18.2° with the normal. What is the index of refraction of the transparent material?
Answer:
n=2.053
Explanation:
We will use Snell's Law defined as:
[tex]n_{1}*Sin\theta_{1}=n_{2}*Sin\theta_{2}[/tex]
Where n values are indexes of refraction and [tex]\theta[/tex] values are the angles in each medium. For vacuum, the index of refraction in n=1. With this we have enough information to state:
[tex]1*Sin(39.9)=n_{2}*Sin(18.2)[/tex]
Solving for [tex]n_{2}[/tex] yields:
[tex]n_{2}=\frac{Sin(39.9)}{Sin(18.2)}=2.053[/tex]
Remember to use degrees for trigonometric functions instead of radians!
Suppose that a car performs a uniform acceleration of 0.42 m/s from rest to 30.0 km/h in the first stage of its motion (From point A to point B). Then it moves at constant speed for half a minute (From point B to point C). After that the car applies the breaks, stopping the vehicle in a uniform manner while the vehicle travels an additional 7.00m distance (From point C to point D). (a) How far did the car travel from the starting point? (b) How long was the car in motion? (c) What is the average speed of the car during the entire motion?
Answer:
a)Total distance = 399. 5 m
b)Total time =51.51 sec
c)Average speed = 7.75 m/s
Explanation:
For A to B:
[tex]S=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2[/tex]
[tex]v^2=u^2+2as[/tex]
v= u + at
8.33 = 0.42 x t
t=19.83 sec
1 Km/h=0.27 m/s
30 Km/h=8.33 m/s
[tex]8.33^2=2\times 0.42\times s[/tex]
s=82.6 m
For B to C
V= 8.33 m/s
s= V x t
s=8.33 x 30
s=249.9 m
For C to D
[tex]S=ut-\dfrac{1}{2}at^2[/tex]
v= u - at
Final speed v=0
So
s=v x t/2
7= 8.33 x t/2
t=1.68 sec
Total distance = 82.6 + 249 .9 +7
Total distance = 399. 5 m
Total time = 19.83 + 30 + 1.68
Total time =51.51 sec
Average speed =Total distance/Total time
Average speed = 399.5/51.5
Average speed = 7.75 m/s
You drop a stone into a deep well and hear it hit the bottom 6.65 s later. This is the time it takes for the stone to fall to the bottom of the well, plus the time it takes for the sound of the stone hitting the bottom to reach you. Sound travels about 343 m/s in air. How deep is the well?
Answer: ok, so total time is Tt = 6.65 seconds = time falling + time of sound traveling.
the time of the rock falling is given by: [tex](g/2)*t₀^{2} -h = 0[/tex] (1)
where h is the heigth of the hole, and t₀ is the time it took to reach the bottom.
the time of the sound traveling is given by 343*t₁ - h = 0 (2)
so t₁ + t₀ = 6.65s = total time
then you know that t₁ = 6.65s - t₀
so now you have two variables, t₀ and h, and we want to know the value of h, so we want to write t₀ as a function of h.
in the second equation we have now: 343*(6.65 - t₀) = h
so t₀ = (-h/343 + 6.65)s
replacing this on the first equation you have:
[tex](g/2)*(-h/343 + 6.65)^{2} -h = 0[/tex]
now you want to take h to the right side so
w
so if we replace g by 9.8 meters over seconds square we get
h = [tex]\frac{-1.19 -+ \sqrt[2]{1.56} }{2*0.00041}[/tex]
where you will take the positive root
h = 61 meters
If the volume is held constant, what happens to the pressure of a gas as temperature is decreased? Explain.
Answer:Decreases
Explanation:
Given
Volume is held constant that is it is a isochoric process.
We know that
PV=nRT
as n,V& R are constant therefore only variables are
P & T
so [tex]\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{P_1}{P_2}=\frac{T_1}{T_2}[/tex]
As [tex]T_1[/tex] is decreasing therefore Pressure must also decrease so that ratio remains constant.
Estimate how fast your hair grows, in units of m/s, assuming it takes 30 days for your hair to grow 1 inch. note that 1 inch =2.54cm
2. how many liters (L) of water does it take to fill a swimming pool that is 15.0 feet long, 15.0 feet wide, and 8.00 feet deep? first compute the volume of the swimming pool in ft^3 and then follow the unit conversion rules to convert the units to L. note that 1ft=0.3048 meter and 1 L =1000cm^3
Answer:
1. 9.8 x 10^-7 cm/s
2. 50970 L
Explanation:
1.
time, t = 30 days = 30 x 24 x 60 x 60 seconds = 2592000 seconds
length of hair, d = 1 inch = 2.54 cm
rate of growth = length of hair grows per second = 2.54 / 2592000
= 9.8 x 10^-7 cm/s
Thus, the grown rate of hair is 9.8 x 10^-7 cm/s.
2. length of the pool, l = 15 feet
width of the pool, w = 15 feet
height of pool, h = 8 feet
Volume of the pool, V = length x width x height
V = 15 x 15 x 8 = 1800 ft^3
To convert ft^3 into m^3 , we use
1 ft = 0.3048 m
so, 1 ft^3 = (0.3048)^3 m^3 = 0.0283 m^3
So, 1800 ft^3 = 1800 x 0.0283 = 50.97 m^3
now, 1 m^3 = 1000 L
So, 50.97 m^3 = 50.97 x 1000 L = 50970 L
Hair grows at approximately 9.8 x 10^-9 m/s based on the 30-day/1-inch growth rate. The swimming pool's volume is calculated by converting its dimensions into meters, then multiplying to find cubic meters and converting that volume to liters.
Explanation:To estimate how fast your hair grows in meters per second, consider that 1 inch is equivalent to 2.54 cm, and there are 30 days in the given period. Hair growing 1 inch in 30 days is roughly 0.0254 meters in 2592000 seconds (30 days * 24 hours/day * 60 minutes/hour * 60 seconds/minute), which results in a speed of approximately 9.8 x 10-9 meters per second.
For the swimming pool volume, the dimensions in feet need to be converted to meters: 15.0 feet is about 4.572 meters (since 1 foot = 0.3048 meters). Therefore, the pool volume in cubic meters would be 4.572 m x 4.572 m x 2.4384 m (since 8.0 feet is 2.4384 meters). To convert this volume to liters, note that 1 m3 is 1000 liters. So, we find the pool's volume in liters by multiplying the volume in cubic meters by 1000.
Suppose that we choose inches as our basic unit of distance and days as our basic unit of time. a. What would the units of velocity and acceleration be in this system? Explain. b. Would this be a good choice of units for measuring the acceleration of an automobile? Explain.
Answer:
a)
velocity unit = [tex]\frac{inches}{days}[/tex]
acceleration unit = [tex]\frac{inches}{days^{2} }[/tex]
b) No
Explanation:
a)
Velocity is a vector expression of the displacement respect to time of something, with magnitude and a defined direction. Then, to know the magnitude of the vector (v) we have to divide the distance (Δx) by the time (Δt) it takes to travel that distance:
v = Δx / Δt
Besides, the unit of velocity is a compound unit between distance units and time units. If we choose inches as our basic unit of distance and days as our basic unit of time, then the unit of velocity would be:
[tex]\frac{inches}{days}[/tex]
On the other hand, acceleration is a vector defined as the rate at which an object changes its velocity. The math expression divides the change o velocity (Δv) by the time (Δt) it takes to make this change to obtain the acceleration magnitude (a):
a = Δv / Δt
So, the unit of acceleration is a compound unit between velocity units and time units. Again, if we choose inches as our basic unit of distance and days as our basic unit of time, then the unit of velocity in this system would be [tex]\frac{inches}{days}[/tex] , as shown. Finally, the unit of acceleration would be:
[tex]\frac{inches}{days^{2} }[/tex]
In resume:
velocity unit = [tex]\frac{inches}{days}[/tex]
acceleration unit = [tex]\frac{inches}{days^{2} }[/tex]
b)
To answer whether this units´ system is a good choice or not for measuring the acceleration of an automobile, let´s think about its normal values.
A car normally takes between 4 to 8 seconds to change its velocity from 0 to 100 km/h, then normal acceleration values for the media of 6 seconds (or its equivalent in hours 0.0016 h) are:
a = Δv / Δt = [tex]\frac{100\frac{km}{h}-0\frac{km}{h} }{0.0016 h}[/tex] = 62,500 [tex]\frac{km}{h^{2} }[/tex]
If we want to use the units system of this exercise, then we have to use the equivalences between inches and kilometers (1 km = 39,370.1 inches) and the other between days and hours (24 h = 1 day). Then,
a = 62,500 [tex]\frac{km}{h^{2} }[/tex] * [tex]\frac{39370.1 inches}{1 km}[/tex] * [tex](\frac{24 h}{1 days}) ^{2}[/tex]
a = 62500 [tex]\frac{km}{h^{2} }[/tex] * [tex]\frac{39,370.1 inches}{1 km}[/tex] * [tex]\frac{576 h^{2} }{days^{2} }[/tex]
a = 1.42 ˣ10¹² [tex]\frac{inches}{days^{2} }[/tex]
If we choose this units´ system to express the acceleration of an automobile, it results in a very high number that introduces a difficulty just to quantify the acceleration. Then, this system is not a good choice for that purpose.
A certain copper wire has a resistance of 10.5 Ω. It is cut into two pieces such that one piece has 6.0 times the resistance of the other. Determine the resistance of each piece.
Answer:
1.5 ohm, 9 ohm
Explanation:
Total resistance, R = 10.5 ohm
Let the resistance of one piece is r and then the resistance of another piece is 10.5 - r.
According to question, the resistance of one piece is equal to the 6 times the resistance of another piece.
so, 6 r = 10.5 - r
7 r = 10.5
r = 1.5 ohm
Thus, the resistance of one piece is 1.5 ohm and resistance of another piece is 10.5 - 1.5 = 9 ohm.
A net external nonconservative force does positive work on
aparticle, and both its kinetic and potential energies change.
What,if anything, can you conclude about
(a) the change in the particle's total mechanical energy and
(b) the individual changes in the kinetic and
potentialenergies?
Justify your answers.
Answer with Explanation:
From work energy theorem we have
[tex]\Delta Energy=\int F.ds[/tex]
Now since it is given that the work done on the object by the force is positive hence we conclude that the term on the right hand of the above relation is positive hence [tex]\Delta Energy>0[/tex]
Part a)
Hence we conclude that the mechanical energy of the particle will increase.
Part b) Since the mechanical energy of the particle is the sum of it's kinetic and potential energies, we can write
[tex]\Delta K.E+\Delta P.E=\Delta E\\\\\therefore \Delta K.E+\Delta P.E>0[/tex]
Now since the sum of the 2 energies ( Kinetic and potential ) is positive we cannot be conclusive of the individual values since 2 cases may arise:
1) Kinetic energy increases while as potential energy decreases.
2) Potential energy increases while as kinetic energy decreases.
Hence these two cases are possible and we cannot find using only the given information which case will hold
Hence no conclusion can be formed regarding the individual energies.
Calculat the acceleration of a person at latitude
40degreesowing to the rotation of the earth.
Answer:
acceleration of person = 9.77 m/s²
Explanation:
given data
latitude = 40 degree
to find out
Calculate the acceleration of a person
solution
we know that here 40 degree = 0.698 rad
so
acceleration of person = g - ω²R ...............1
and 1 rotation complete in 24 hours = 360 degree
here g is 9.81
so we know Earth angular speed ω = 7.27 × [tex]10^{-5}[/tex] rad/s and R is earth radius that is 6.37 × [tex]10^{6}[/tex] m
so
put here value in equation 1 we get
acceleration of person = g - ω²R
acceleration of person = 9.81 - (7.27 × [tex]10^{-5}[/tex])² × 6.37 × [tex]10^{6}[/tex]
acceleration of person = 9.77 m/s²
Final answer:
To calculate the centripetal acceleration at a latitude of 40°, use the formula ω2 r, considering Earth's angular velocity and the adjusted radius at that latitude. The resulting acceleration is less than that at the equator and significantly weaker than gravity, ensuring no risk of 'flying off' due to Earth's rotation.
Explanation:
To calculate the acceleration due to Earth's rotation for a person at a latitude of 40 degrees, we can use the formula for centripetal acceleration, ac = ω2 r, where ω is the angular velocity of Earth and r is the distance from the axis of rotation. The angular velocity of Earth is approximately 7.29 × 10-5 radians per second (based on a sidereal day). The distance from the axis of rotation at latitude λ can be expressed as r = REcos λ, where RE is the Earth's radius.
The formula for a person at latitude 40° becomes ac = (ω2)(RE)(cos 40°). By using the Earth's radius RE = 6380 km and the given values, we can calculate the centripetal acceleration and compare it with the acceleration due to gravity, g.
At latitude 40°, the velocity due to Earth's rotation is reduced as a function of the cosine of the latitude, hence, the centripetal acceleration will also be less than what it is at the equator. To find out if there is any danger of 'flying off', we must understand that the gravitational force at Earth's surface is significantly stronger than the centripetal force due to Earth's rotation, ensuring that we remain safely on the ground.
A 0.07-kg lead bullet traveling 257 m/s strikes an armor plate and comes to a stop. If all of the bullet's energy is converted to heat that it alone absorbs, what is its temperature change?
Answer:
ΔT = 258°C
Explanation:
mass of bullet, m = 0.07 kg
velocity of bullet, v = 257 m/s
According to the energy conservation law, the kinetic energy of bullet is totally converted into form of heat energy.
let ΔT be the rise in temperature of the bullet, c be the specific heat of lead.
c = 0.128 J / g°C = 128 J/kg°C
[tex]\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}=mc\Delta T[/tex]
By substituting the values
0.5 x 0.07 x 257 x 257 = 0.07 x 128 x ΔT
ΔT = 258°C
A plastic rod is charged to -12 nC by rubbing. a) Have electrons been added or protons removed? Explain! b) How many electrons have been added or protons removed?
Answer:
(a) electrons being added.
(b) 7.5 × 10¹⁰
Explanation:
(a)
The plastic rod acquires a charge of -12 nC which means it contains more negative charge.
Thu, the electrons have been added to the rod. Removing protons are very difficult as they are in the nucleus and are bind by nuclear forces. Thus, by rubbing, electrons are transferred and thus the rod become negatively charged which means that the electrons being added.
(b)
The total charge = -12 nC
Also,
1 nC = 10⁻⁹ C
So,
Charge = -12 × 10⁻⁹ C
Charge on electron = -1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C
So, number of electrons transferred = -12 × 10⁻⁹ C / -1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C = 7.5 × 10¹⁰
a) Electrons have been added to the plastic rod.
b) 7.5 x 10¹⁰ electrons have been added to the plastic rod.
a) When a plastic rod is rubbed with a cloth, electrons are transferred from the cloth to the rod. This gives the rod a negative charge, because it now has an excess of electrons.
b) The charge on an electron is -1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C. The rod has a charge of -12 nC, which is -12 x 10⁻⁹ C. So, 7.5 x 10¹⁰ electrons have been added to the rod.
Charge: Charge is a property of matter that can be positive, negative, or neutral. Objects with the same charge repel each other, while objects with opposite charges attract each other.
Electrons: Electrons are negatively charged particles that are found in all atoms. They are much smaller than protons and neutrons, the other two types of particles found in atoms.
Protons: Protons are positively charged particles that are found in the nucleus of atoms. They are about the same size as neutrons.
Rubbing: When two objects are rubbed together, electrons can be transferred from one object to the other. This is because the electrons in the two objects are not always evenly distributed.
When a plastic rod is rubbed with a cloth, electrons are transferred from the cloth to the rod. This is because the cloth has a stronger attraction for electrons than the rod does. The rod now has an excess of electrons, which gives it a negative charge.
The number of electrons that are transferred can be calculated by dividing the rod's charge by the charge on an electron. In this case, the rod has a charge of -12 nC, and the charge on an electron is -1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C. So, 7.5 x 10¹⁰ electrons have been added to the rod.

Find the wavelength in meters for a transverse mechanical wave with an amplitude of 10 cm and a radian frequency of 20π rad/s if the medium through which it travels has a bulk modulus of 40 MPa and a density of 1000 kg/m^3.
Answer:
The wavelength of the wave is 20 m.
Explanation:
Given that,
Amplitude = 10 cm
Radial frequency [tex]\omega = 20\pi\ rad/s[/tex]
Bulk modulus = 40 MPa
Density = 1000 kg/m³
We need to calculate the velocity of the wave in the medium
Using formula of velocity
[tex]v=\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{\rho}}[/tex]
Put the value into the formula
[tex]v=\sqrt{\dfrac{40\times10^{6}}{10^3}}[/tex]
[tex]v=200\ m/s[/tex]
We need to calculate the wavelength
Using formula of wavelength
[tex]\lambda =\dfrac{v}{f}[/tex]
[tex]\lambda=\dfrac{v\times2\pi}{\omega}[/tex]
Put the value into the formula
[tex]\lambda=\dfrac{200\times2\pi}{20\pi}[/tex]
[tex]\lambda=20\ m[/tex]
Hence, The wavelength of the wave is 20 m.
