Answer:
The particle P moves directly upwards
Explanation:
Lets designate the negative point charge at point P as particle P
The +Q charge will exert an attractive force on the particle P.
The -Q charge will exert a repulsive force on the particle P
The +Q charge exerts an upwards and leftward force on particle P
The -Q charge exerts an upwards and rightward force on particle P
Since the charges are equidistant from the particle P, and are of equal magnitude, the rightward force and the leftward force will cancel out, leaving just the upward force on the particle P.
The effect of the upward force is that the particle P moves directly upwards
Muons are elementary particles that are formed high in the atmosphere by the interactions of cosmic rays with atomic nuclei. Muons are radioactive and have average lifetimes of about two-millionths of a second. Even though they travel at almost the speed of light, they have so far to travel through the atmosphere that very few should be detected at sea level - at least according to classical physics. Laboratory measurements, however, show that muons in great number do reach the earth's surface. What is the explanation?
Answer:
Muons reach the earth in great amount due to the relativistic time dilation from an earthly frame of reference.
Explanation:
Muons travel at exceedingly high speed; close to the speed of light. At this speed, relativistic effect starts to take effect. The effect of this is that, when viewed from an earthly reference frame, their short half life of about two-millionth of a second is dilated. The dilated time, due to relativistic effects on time for travelling at speed close to the speed of light, gives the muons an extended relative travel time before their complete decay. So in reality, the muon do not have enough half-life to survive the distance from their point of production high up in the atmosphere to sea level, but relativistic effect due to their near-light speed, dilates their half-life; enough for them to be found in sufficient amount at sea level.
A player is positioned 35 m[40 degrees W of S] of the net. He shoot the puck 25 m [E] to a teammate. What second displacement does the puck have to travel in order to make it to the net?
Answer:
x=22.57 m
Explanation:
Given that
35 m in W of S
angle = 40 degrees
25 m in east
From the diagram
The angle
[tex]\theta=90-40=50^o[/tex]
From the triangle OAB
[tex]cos40^o=\frac{35^2+25^2-x^2}{2\times 35\times 25}[/tex]
[tex]1340.57=35^2+25^2-x^2[/tex]
x=22.57 m
Therefore the answer of the above problem will be 22.57 m
The Law of Biot-Savart shows that the magnetic field of an infinitesimal current element decreases as 1/r2. Is there anyway you could put together a complete circuit (any closed path of current-carrying wire) whose field exhibits this same 1/r^2 decrease in magnetic field strength? Explain your reasoning.
Answer and Explanation:
There is no probability of obtaining such a circuit of closed track current carrying wire whose field of magnitude displays i.e. [tex]B \alpha \frac{1}{r^2}[/tex]
The magnetic field is a volume of vectors
And [tex]\phi\ bds = 0[/tex]. This ensures isolated magnetic poles or magnetic charges would not exit
Therefore for a closed path, we never received magnetic field that followed the [tex]B \alpha \frac{1}{r^2}[/tex] it is only for the simple current-carrying wire for both finite or infinite length.
A solid conducting sphere is placed in an external uniform electric field. With regard to the electric field on the sphere's interior, which statement is correct
Complete question:
A solid conducting sphere is placed in an external uniform electric field. With regard to the electric field on the sphere's interior, which statement is correct?
A. the interior field points in a direction parallel to the exterior field
B. There is no electric field on the interior of the conducting sphere.
C. The interior field points in a direction perpendicular to the exterior field.
D. the interior field points in a direction opposite to the exterior field.
Answer:
B. There is no electric field on the interior of the conducting sphere.
Explanation:
Conductors are said to have free charges that move around easily. When the conductor is now placed in a static electric field, the free charges react to attain electrostatic equilibrium (steady state).
Here, a solid conducting sphere is placed in an external uniform electric field. Until the lines of the electric field are perpendicular to the surface, the free charges will move around the spherical conductor, causing polarization. There would be no electric field in the interior of the spherical conductor because there would be movement of free charges in the spherical conductor in response to any field until its neutralization.
Option B is correct.
There is no electric field on the interior of the conducting sphere.
If, the limits of the visible spectrum are approximately 3000 A.U. and 5000 A.U. respectively. Determine the angular breadth of the first order visible spectrum produced by a plane diffraction grating having 12000 lines per inch when light is incident normally on the grating.
Answer:
θ₁ = 0.04º , θ₂ = 0.00118º
Explanation:
The equation that describes the diffraction pattern of a network is
d sin θ = m λ
where the diffraction order is, in this case they indicate that the order
m = 1
θ = sin⁻¹ (λ / d)
Trfuvsmod ls inrsd fr ll red s SI units
d = 12000 line / inc (1 inc / 2.54cm) = 4724 line / cm
the distance between two lines we can look for it with a direct proportions rule
If there are 4724 lines in a centimeter, the distance for two hundred is
d = 2 lines (1 cm / 4724 line) = 4.2337 10⁻⁴ cm
let's calculate the angles
λ = 300 10-9 m
θ₁ = sin⁻¹ (300 10-9 / 4,2337 10-4)
θ₁ = sin⁻¹ (7.08 10-4)
θ₁ = 0.04º
λ = 5000
θ₂ = sin-1 (500 10-9 / 4,2337 10-4)
θ₂ = 0.00118º
A uniform crate C with mass mC is being transported to the left by a forklift with a constant speed v1. What is the magnitude of the angular momentum of the crate about point A, that is, the point of contact between the front tire of the forklift and the ground
Answer:
The angular momentum of the crate is [tex]M_{C} V_{1} d[/tex]
Explanation:
mass of the crate = [tex]M_{C}[/tex]
speed of forklift = [tex]V_{1}[/tex]
The distance between the center of the mass and the point A = d
Recall that the angular moment is the moment of the momentum.
[tex]L = P*d[/tex] ..... equ 1
where L is the angular momentum,
P is the momentum of the system,
d is the perpendicular distance between the crate and the point on the axis about which the momentum acts. It is equal to d from the image
Also, we know that the momentum P is the product of mass and velocity
P = mv ....equ 2
in this case, the mass = [tex]M_{C}[/tex]
the velocity = [tex]V_{1}[/tex]
therefore, the momentum P = [tex]M_{C}[/tex][tex]V_{1}[/tex]
we substitute equation 2 into equation 1 to give
[tex]L = M_{C} V_{1} d[/tex]
The electric field at the surface of a charged, solid, copper sphere with radius 0.220 mm is 4200 N/CN/C, directed toward the center of the sphere. What is the potential at the center of the sphere, if we take the potential to be zero infinitely far from the sphere?
Answer:
The potential at the center of the sphere is -924 V
Explanation:
Given;
radius of the sphere, R = 0.22 m
electric field at the surface of the sphere, E = 4200 N/C
Since the electric field is directed towards the center of the sphere, the charge is negative.
The Potential is the same at every point in the sphere, and it is given as;
[tex]V = \frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_o} \frac{q}{R}[/tex] -------equation (1)
The electric field on the sphere is also given as;
[tex]E = \frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon _o} \frac{|q|}{R^2}[/tex]
[tex]|q |= 4 \pi \epsilon _o} R^2E[/tex]
Substitute in the value of q in equation (1)
[tex]V = \frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_o} \frac{-(4 \pi \epsilon _o R^2E)}{R} \ \ \ \ q \ is \ negative\ because \ E \ is\ directed \ toward \ the \ center\\\\V = -RE\\\\V = -(0.22* 4200)\\\\V = -924 \ V[/tex]
Therefore, the potential at the center of the sphere is -924 V
_____________ friction is the interlocking of surfaces due to irregularities on the surfaces preventing those surfaces from moving/sliding against each other.

KINETIC friction is less than static friction
Explanation:
In this exercise you are asked to complete the sentences with the correct words.
STATIC friction prevents the relative movement of two surfaces in contact.
For moving surfaces the friction is STATIC is greater than the kinetic friction.
For the last two sentences I think they are misspelled, the correct thing is
KINETIC friction is less than static friction
A 1.0-kg ball is attached to the end of a 2.5-m string to form a pendulum. This pendulum is released from rest with the string horizontal. At the lowest point in its swing when it is moving horizontally, the ball collides elastically with a 2.0-kg block initially at rest on a horizontal frictionless surface. What is the speed of the block just after the collision
Answer:
[tex]v_{2}=3.5 m/s[/tex]
Explanation:
Using the conservation of energy we have:
[tex]\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}=mgh[/tex]
Let's solve it for v:
[tex]v=\sqrt{2gh}[/tex]
So the speed at the lowest point is [tex]v=7 m/s[/tex]
Now, using the conservation of momentum we have:
[tex]m_{1}v_{1}=m_{2}v_{2}[/tex]
[tex]v_{2}=\frac{1*7}{2}[/tex]
Therefore the speed of the block after the collision is [tex]v_{2}=3.5 m/s[/tex]
I hope it helps you!
what is the difference between a good conductor and a good insulator?
Answer:
Explanation:
In a conductor, electric current can flow freely, in an insulator it cannot.
Metals such as copper typify conductors, while most non-metallic solids are said to be good insulators, having extremely high resistance to the flow of charge through them.
Most atoms hold on to their electrons tightly and are insulators.
The compressor of an air conditioner draws an electric current of 16.2 A when it starts up. If the start-up time is 1.45 s long, then how much electric charge passes through the circuit during this period
Answer:
Q = 23.49 C
Explanation:
We have,
Electric current drawn by the air conditioner is 16.2 A
Time, t = 1.45 s
It is required to find the electric charge passes through the circuit during this period. We know that electric current is defined as the electric charge flowing per unit time. So,
[tex]I=\dfrac{q}{t}\\\\q=It\\\\q=16.2\times 1.45\\\\q=23.49\ C[/tex]
So, the charge of 23.49 C is passing through the circuit during this period.

Explanation:
same direction means they are added to each other
and opposite means acting on eachother
Two carts are connected by a loaded spring on a horizontal, frictionless surface. The spring is released and the carts push away from each other. Cart 1 has mass M and Cart 2 has mass M/3.
a) Is the momentum of Cart 1 conserved?
Yes
No
It depends on M
b) Is the momentum of Cart 2 conserved?
Yes
No
It depends on M
c) Is the total momentum of Carts 1 and 2 conserved?
Yes
No
It depends on M
d) Which cart ends up moving faster?
Cart 1
Cart 2
They move at the same speed
e) If M = 6 kg and Cart 1 moves with a speed of 16 m/s, what is the speed of Cart 2?
0 m/s
4.0 m/s
5.3 m/s
16 m/s
48 m/s
64 m/s
Answer:
a) yes
b) no
c) yes
d)Cart 2 with mass [tex]\frac{M}{3}[/tex] is expected to be more faster
e) u₂ = 48 m/s
Explanation:
a) the all out linear momentum of an arrangement of particles of Cart 1 not followed up on by external forces is constant.
b) the linear momentum of Cart 2 will be acted upon by external force by Cart 1 with mass M, thereby it's variable and the momentum is not conserved
c) yes, the momentum is conserved because no external force acted upon it and both Carts share the same velocity after the reaction
note: m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = (m₁ + m₂)v
d) Cart 2 with mass [tex]\frac{M}{3}[/tex] will be faster than Cart 1 because Cart 2 is three times lighter than Cart 1.
e) Given
m₁= M
u₁ = 16m/s
m₂ =[tex]\frac{M}{3}[/tex]
u₂ = ?
from law of conservation of momentum
m₁u₁= m₂u₂
M× 16 = [tex]\frac{M}{3}[/tex] × u₂(multiply both sides by 3)
therefore, u₂ = [tex]\frac{3(M .16)}{M}[/tex] ("." means multiplication)
∴u₂ = 3×16 = 48 m/s
A "laser cannon" of a spacecraft has a beam of cross-sectional area A. The maximum electric field in the beam is 2E. The beam is aimed at an asteroid that is initially moving in the direction of the spacecraft. What is the acceleration of the asteroid relative to the spacecraft if the laser beam strikes the asteroid perpendicularly to its surface, and the surface is not reflecting
Answer:
Acceleration of the asteroid relative to the spacecraft = 2ε[tex]E^{2}[/tex]A/m
Explanation:
The maximum electric field in the beam = 2E
cross-sectional area of beam = A
The intensity of an electromagnetic wave with electric field is
I = cε[tex]E_{0} ^{2}[/tex]/2
for [tex]E_{0}[/tex] = 2E
I = 2cε[tex]E^{2}[/tex] ....equ 1
where
I is the intensity
c is the speed of light
ε is the permeability of free space
[tex]E_{0}[/tex] is electric field
Radiation pressure of an electromagnetic wave on an absorbing surface is given as
P = I/c
substituting for I from above equ 1. we have
P = 2cε[tex]E^{2}[/tex]/c = 2ε[tex]E^{2}[/tex] ....equ 2
Also, pressure P = F/A
therefore,
F = PA ....equ 3
where
F is the force
P is pressure
A is cross-sectional area
substitute equ 2 into equ 3, we have
F = 2ε[tex]E^{2}[/tex]A
force on a body = mass x acceleration.
that is
F = ma
therefore,
a = F/m
acceleration of the asteroid will then be
a = 2ε[tex]E^{2}[/tex]A/m
where m is the mass of the asteroid.

Briefly describe the relationship between an equipotential surface and an electric field, and use this to explain why we will plot equipotential lines.
Answer:
E = - dV/dx
Explanation:
Las superficies equipòtenciales son superficie donde el potencial eléctrico es constante por lo cual nos podemos desplazaren ella sin realizar nigun trabajo.
El campo electrico es el campo que existen algún punto en el espacio creado por alguna ddistribucion de carga.
De los antes expuesto las dos magnitudes están relacionadas
E = - dV/dx
por lo cual el potenical es el gradiente del potencial eléctrico.
Como el campo eléctrico sobre un superficie equipotenciales constante, podemos colocar una punta de prueba con un potencial dado y seguir la linea que de una diferencia de potencial constar, lo cual permite visualizar las forma de cada linea equipotencial
An elastic band is hung on a hook and a mass is hung on the lower end of the band. When the mass is pulled downward and then released, it vibrates vertically. The equation of motion is s = 9 cos(t) + 9 sin(t), t ≥ 0, where s is measured in centimeters and t in seconds. (Take the positive direction to be downward.) (a) Find the velocity and acceleration at time t.
Answer:
v(t) = s′(t) = −9sin(t)+9cos(t)
a(t) = v′(t) = −9cos(t) −9sin(t)
Explanation:
Given that
s = 9 cos(t) + 9 sin(t), t ≥ 0
Then acceleration and velocity is
v(t) = s′(t) = −9sin(t)+9cos(t)
a(t) = v′(t) = −9cos(t) −9sin(t)
Calculate the ideal banking angle in degrees for a gentle turn of 1.88 km radius on a highway with a 136.3 km/hr speed limit, assuming everyone travels at the speed limit.
Answer:
Ф = 4.4°Explanation:
given:
radius (r) = 1.88 km
velocity (v) = 136.3 km/hr
required:
banking angle ∡ ?
first:
convert 1.88 km to m = 1.88km * 1000m / 1km
r = 1880 m
convert velocity v = 136.3 km/hr to m/s = 136.3 km/hr * (1000 m/ 3600s)
v = 37.86 m/s
now.. calculate the angle
Ф = inv tan (v² / r * g) we know that gravity = 9.8 m/s²
Ф = inv tan (37.86² / (1880 * 9.8))
Ф = 4.4°
Consider a conducting rod of length 31 cm moving along a pair of rails, and a magnetic field pointing perpendicular to the plane of the rails. At what speed (in m /s) must the sliding rod move to produce an emf of 0.75 V in a 1.75 T field?
Answer:
The speed of the rod is 1.383 m/s
Explanation:
Given;
length of the conducting rod, L = 31 cm = 0.31 m
induced emf on the rod, emf = 0.75V
magnetic field around the rod, B = 1.75 T
Apply the following Faraday's equation for electromagnetic induction in a moving rod to determine the speed of the rod.
emef = BLv
where;
B is the magnetic field
L is length of the rod
v is the speed of the rod
v = emf / BL
v = (0.75) / (1.75 x 0.31)
v = 1.383 m/s
Therefore, the speed of the rod is 1.383 m/s
At t = 0, a battery is connected to a series arrangement of a resistor and an inductor. If the inductive time constant is 36.0 ms, at what time is the rate at which energy is dissipated in the resistor equal to the rate at which energy is stored in the inductor's magnetic field?
Answer:
The rate at which energy is dissipated in the resistor is equal to the rate at which energy is stored in the inductor's magnetic field in 24.95 ms.
Explanation:
The energy stored in the inductor is given as
E₁ = ½LI²
The rate at which energy is stored in the inductor is
(dE₁/dt) = (d/dt) (½LI²)
Since L is a constant
(dE₁/dt) = ½L × 2I (dI/dt) = LI (dI/dt)
(dE₁/dt) = LI (dI/dt)
Rate of Energy dissipated in a resistor = Power = I²R
(dE₂/dt) = I²R
When the rate at which energy is dissipated in the resistor equal to the rate at which energy is stored in the inductor's magnetic field
(dE₁/dt) = (dE₂/dt)
OK (dI/dt) = I²R
L (dI/dt) = IR
Current in a this kind of series setup of inductor and resistor at any time, t, is given as
I = (V/R) (1 - e⁻ᵏᵗ)
k = (1/time constant) = (R/L)
(dI/dt) = (kV/R) e⁻ᵏᵗ = (RV/RL) e⁻ᵏᵗ = (V/L) e⁻ᵏᵗ
L (dI/dt) = IR
L [(V/L) e⁻ᵏᵗ] = R [(V/R) (1 - e⁻ᵏᵗ)
V e⁻ᵏᵗ = V (1 - e⁻ᵏᵗ)
e⁻ᵏᵗ = 1 - e⁻ᵏᵗ
2 e⁻ᵏᵗ = 1
e⁻ᵏᵗ = (1/2) = 0.5
e⁻ᵏᵗ = 0.5
In e⁻ᵏᵗ = In 0.5 = -0.69315
- kt = -0.69315
kt = 0.69315
k = (1/time constant)
Time constant = 36.0 ms = 0.036 s
k = (1/0.036) = 27.78
27.78t = 0.69315
t = (0.69315/27.78) = 0.02495 = 24.95 ms
Hope this Helps!!!
When the pivot point of a balance is not at the center of mass of the balance, how is the net torque on the balance calculated
Answer:
It is calculated as Force × perpendicular distance.
Explanation:
Torque is a rotational force and twisting force that can cause an object to rotate in it's axis. This cause angular rotation.
The torque due to gravity on a body about its centre of mass is zero because the centre of mass is the that point of the body at which the force acts by the gravity that is mg.
But if the pivot point of a balance is not at the centre of mass of the balance, it will be FORCE × PERPENDICULAR DISTANCE because at that point, there is no centre in which the force act on a body by gravity. The distance and force will be use to calculate.

If, instead, the ball is revolved so that its speed is 3.7 m/s, what angle does the cord make with the vertical?
Complete Question:
A 0.50-kg ball that is tied to the end of a 1.5-m light cord is revolved in a horizontal plane, with the cord making a 30° angle with the vertical.
(a) Determine the ball’s speed. (b) If, instead, the ball is revolved so that its
speed is 3.7 m/s, what angle does the cord make with the vertical?
(Check attached image for the diagram.)
Answer:
(a) The ball’s speed, v = 2.06 m/s
(b) The angle the cord makes with the vertical is 50.40⁰
Explanation:
If the ball is revolved in a horizontal plane, it will form a circular trajectory,
the radius of the circle, R = Lsinθ
where;
L is length of the string
The force acting on the ball is given as;
F = mgtanθ
This above is also equal to centripetal force;
[tex]mgTan \theta = \frac{mv^2}{R} \\\\Recall, R = Lsin \theta\\\\mgTan \theta = \frac{mv^2}{Lsin \theta}\\\\v^2 = glTan \theta sin \theta\\\\v = \sqrt{glTan \theta sin \theta} \\\\v = \sqrt{(9.8)(1.5)(Tan30)(sin30)} \\\\v = 2.06 \ m/s[/tex]
(b) when the speed is 3.7 m/s
[tex]v = \sqrt{glTan \theta sin \theta} \ \ \ ;square \ both \ sides\\\\v^2 = glTan \theta sin \theta\\\\v^2 = gl(\frac{sin \theta}{cos \theta}) sin \theta\\\\v^2 = \frac{gl*sin^2 \theta}{cos \theta} \\\\v^2 = \frac{gl*(1- cos^2 \theta)}{cos \theta}\\\\gl*(1- cos^2 \theta) = v^2cos \theta\\\\(9.8*1.5)(1- cos^2 \theta) = (3.7^2)cos \theta\\\\14.7 - 14.7cos^2 \theta = 13.69cos \theta\\\\14.7cos^2 \theta + 13.69cos \theta - 14.7 = 0 \ \ \ ; this \ is \ quadratic \ equation\\\\[/tex]
[tex]Cos\theta = \frac{13.69\sqrt{13.69^2 -(-4*14.7*14.7)} }{14.7} \\\\Cos \theta = 0.6374\\\\\theta = Cos^{-1}(0.6374)\\\\\theta = 50.40 ^o[/tex]
Therefore, the angle the cord makes with the vertical is 50.40⁰
Alternating Current In Europe, the voltage of the alternating current coming through an electrical outlet can be modeled by the function V 230 sin (100t), where tis measured in seconds and Vin volts.What is the frequency of the voltage
Answer:
[tex]\frac{50}{\pi }[/tex]Hz
Explanation:
In alternating current (AC) circuits, voltage (V) oscillates in a sine wave pattern and has a general equation as a function of time (t) as follows;
V(t) = V sin (ωt + Ф) -----------------(i)
Where;
V = amplitude value of the voltage
ω = angular frequency = 2 π f [f = cyclic frequency or simply, frequency]
Ф = phase difference between voltage and current.
Now,
From the question,
V(t) = 230 sin (100t) ---------------(ii)
By comparing equations (i) and (ii) the following holds;
V = 230
ω = 100
Ф = 0
But;
ω = 2 π f = 100
2 π f = 100 [divide both sides by 2]
π f = 50
f = [tex]\frac{50}{\pi }[/tex]Hz
Therefore, the frequency of the voltage is [tex]\frac{50}{\pi }[/tex]Hz

2. A pair of narrow, parallel slits sep by 0.25 mm is illuminated by 546 nm green light. The interference pattern is observed on a screen situated at 1.3 m away from the slits. Calculate the distance from the central maximum to the
Answer:
for the first interference m = 1 y = 2,839 10-3 m
for the second interference m = 2 y = 5,678 10-3 m
Explanation:
The double slit interference phenomenon, for constructive interference is described by the expression
d sin θ = m λ
where d is the separation between the slits, λ the wavelength and m an integer that corresponds to the interference we see.
In these experiments in general the observation screen is L >> d, let's use trigonometry to find the angles
tan θ = y / L
with the angle it is small,
tan θ = sin θ / cos θ = sin θ
we substitute
sin θ = y / L
d y / L = m λ
the distance between the central maximum and an interference line is
y = m λ L / d
let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system
λ = 546 nm = 546 10⁻⁹ m
d = 0.25 mm = 0.25 10⁻³ m
let's substitute the values
y = m 546 10⁻⁹ 1.3 / 0.25 10⁻³
y = m 2,839 10⁻³
the explicit value for a line depends on the value of the integer m, for example
for the first interference m = 1
the distance from the central maximum to the first line is y = 2,839 10-3 m
for the second interference m = 2
the distance from the central maximum to the second line is y = 5,678 10-3 m

(a) The frequency of the oscillation, in a spring-mass system, is calulated by using the following formula:
[tex]f=\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}[/tex] (1)
k: spring constant = 20.0N/m
m: mass = 1.5kg
you replace the values of m and k for getting f:
[tex]f=\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{20.0N/m}{1.5kg}}=0.58s^{-1}=0.58Hz[/tex]
The frequency of the oscillation is 0.58Hz
(b) The maximum speed is given by:
[tex]v_{max}=\omega A=2\pi f A[/tex] (2)
A: amplitude of the oscillations = 10.0cm = 0.10m
[tex]v_{max}=2\pi (0.58s^{-1})(0.10m)=0.364\frac{m}{s}[/tex]
The maximum speed of the mass is 0.364 m/s.
The maximum speed occurs when the mass passes trough the equilibrium point of the oscillation.
(c) The maximum acceleration is given by:
[tex]a_{max}=\omega^2A=(2\pi f)^2 A[/tex]
[tex]a_{max}=(2\pi (0.58s^{-1}))(0.10m)=1.32\frac{m}{s^2}[/tex]
The maximum acceleration is 1.32 m/s^2
The maximum acceleration occurs where the elastic force is a maximum, that is, where the mass is at the maximum distance from the equilibrium point, that is, the acceleration.
(d) The total energy of the system is:
[tex]E=\frac{1}{2}kA^2=\frac{1}{2}(20.0N/m)(0.10m)^2=0.1J[/tex]
The total energy is 0.1J
(e) The displacement as a function of time is:
[tex]x(t)=Acos(\omega t)=Acos(2\pi ft)\\\\x(t)=0.1m\ cos(2\pi(0.58s^{-1})t)[/tex]
A skater on ice with arms extended and one leg out spins at 3 rev/s. After he draws his arms and the leg in, his moment of inertia is reduced to 1/2. What is his new angular speed
Answer:
The new angular speed is [tex]w = 6 \ rev/s[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The angular velocity of the spin is [tex]w_o = 3 \ rev/s[/tex]
The original moment of inertia is [tex]I_o[/tex]
The new moment of inertia is [tex]I =\frac{I_o}{2}[/tex]
Generally angular momentum is mathematically represented as
[tex]L = I * w[/tex]
Now according to the law of conservation of momentum, the initial momentum is equal to the final momentum hence the angular momentum is constant so
[tex]I * w = constant[/tex]
=> [tex]I_o * w _o = I * w[/tex]
where w is the new angular speed
So
[tex]I_o * 3 = \frac{I_o}{2} * w[/tex]
=> [tex]w = \frac{3 * I_o}{\frac{I_o}{2} }[/tex]
=> [tex]w = 6 \ rev/s[/tex]
what is the preferred method of using percentage data by using a circle divided into sections
Answer:
A pie chart is a type of graph in which a circle is divided into sectors that each represents a proportion of the whole
Explanation:
pie charts are a useful way to organize data in order to see the size of components relative to the whole.
