Answer:
Electric potential at position, x = -20 m, = -100 V
Electric potential at position, x = 0 m, = 0
Electric potential at position, x = 10 m, = 50 V
Electric potential at position, x = 11 m, = 55 V
Electric potential at position, x = 99 m, 495 V
Explanation:
Given;
magnitude of electric field, E = 5.0 V/m
at position x = 10 m, electric potential = 50 V
Electric potential at position, x = -20 m
V = Ex
V = 5 (-20)
V = -100 V
Electric potential at position, x = 0 m
V = Ex
V = 5(0)
V = 0
Electric potential at position, x = 10 m
V = Ex
V = 5(10)
V = 50 V
Electric potential at position, x = 11 m
V = Ex
V = 5(11)
V = 55 V
Electric potential at position, x = 99 m
V = Ex
V = 5(99)
V = 495 V
An object has an acceleration of 6.0 m/s/s. If the net force was doubled and the mass was one-third the original value, then the new acceleration would be _____ m/s/s.
Hahahahaha. Okay.
So basically , force is equal to mass into acceleration.
F=ma
so when F=ma , we get acceleration=6m/s/s
Force is doubled.
Mass is 1/3 times original.
2F=1/3ma
Now , we rearrange , and we get 6F=ma
So , now for 6 times the original force , we get 6 times the initial acceleration.
So new acceleration = 6*6= 36m/s/s
A typical home uses approximately 1600 kWh of energy per month. If the energy came from a nuclear reaction, what mass would have to be converted to energy per year to meet the energy needs of the home
Answer:
7.68×10^25kg
Explanation:
The formula for energy used per year is calculated as
Energy used per year =12 x Energy used per month
By substituting Energy used per month in the above formula, we get
Energy used per year =12 x 1600kWh
= 19200kWh
Conversion:
From kWh to J:
1 kWh=3.6 x 10^6 J
Therefore, it is converted to J as
19200 kWh =19200 x 3.6 x 10^6 J
= 6.912×10^10 J
Hence, energy used per year is 6.912×10^10 J
To find the mass that is converted to energy per year.
E = MC^2 ............1
E is the energy used per year
C is the speed of light = 3.0× 10^8m/s
Where E= 6.912×10^10 J
Substituting the values into equation 1
6.912×10^10 J = M × 3.0× 10^8m/s
M = 6.912×10^10 J / (3.0× 10^8m/s)^2
M = 6.912×10^10 J/9×10^16
M = 7.68×10^25kg
Hence the mass to be converted is
7.68×10^25kg
Determine the position in the oscillation where an object in simple harmonic motion: (Be very specific, and give some reasoning to your answer.) has the greatest speed has the greatest acceleration experiences the greatest restoring force experiences zero restoring force g
Answer:
Explanation:
The greatest speed is attained at middle point or equilibrium point or where displacement from equilibrium point is zero .
When the object remains at one of the extreme point it experiences greatest acceleration but at that point velocity is zero . Due to acceleration , its velocity goes on increasing till it come to equilibrium point . At this point acceleration becomes zero . After that its velocity starts decreasing because of negative acceleration . Hence at middle point velocity is maximum .
The greatest acceleration is attained at maximum displacement or at one of the two extreme end .
Greatest restoring force too will be at position where acceleration is maximum because acceleration is produced by restoring force .
Restoring force is proportional to displacement or extension against restoring force . So it will be maximum when displacement is maximum .
Zero restoring force exists at equilibrium position or middle point or at point where displacement is zero . It is so because acceleration at that point is zero .
We repeat the experiment from the video, but this time we connect the wires in parallel rather than in series. Which wire will now dissipate the most heat?
Both wires will dissipate the same amount of heat.
A. The Nichrome wire (resistance 2.7)
B. The copper wire (resistance 0.1)
Answer: B. The copper wire (resistance 0.1)
Explanation: When resistance is in parallel, voltage (V) is the same but current is different for every resistance. Current (i) is related to voltage and resistance (R) by Ohm's Law
i = [tex]\frac{V}{R}[/tex]
So, since both wires are in parallel, they have the same voltage but because the copper wire resistance is smaller than Nichrome wire, the first's current will be bigger.
Every resistor in a circuit dissipates electrical power (P) that is converted into heat energy. The dissipation can be found by:
P = [tex]i^{2}*R[/tex]
As current for copper wire is bigger than nichrome, power will be bigger and it will dissipate more heat.
In conclusion, the copper wire will dissipate more heat when connected in parallel.
A solenoid used to produce magnetic fields for research purposes is 2.2 mm long, with an inner radius of 30 cmcm and 1200 turns of wire. When running, the solenoid produced a field of 1.4 TT in the center. Given this, how large a current does it carry?
Answer:
The current is [tex]I = 2042\ A[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The length of the solenoid is [tex]l = 2.2 \ m[/tex]
The radius is [tex]r_i = 30 \ cm = 0.30 \ m[/tex]
The number of turn is [tex]N = 1200 \ turns[/tex]
The magnetic field is [tex]B = 1.4 \ T[/tex]
The magnetic field produced is mathematically represented as
[tex]B = \frac{\mu_o * N * I }{l }[/tex]
making [tex]I[/tex] the subject
[tex]I = \frac{B * l}{\mu_o * N }[/tex]
Where [tex]\mu_o[/tex] is the permeability of free space with values [tex]\mu_o = 4\pi *10^{-7} N/A^2[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]I = \frac{1.4 * 2.2 }{4\pi *10^{-7} * 1200 }[/tex]
[tex]I = 2042\ A[/tex]
Two objects are in all respects identical except for the fact that one was coated with a substance that is an excellent reflector of light while the other was coated with a substance that is a perfect absorber of light. You place both objects at the same distance from a powerful light source so they both receive the same amount of energy U from the light. The linear momentum these objects will receive is such that:
Answer:
absorbent p = S / c
reflective p = 2S/c
Explanation:
The moment of radiation on a surface is
p = U / c
where U is the energy and c is the speed of light.
In the case of a fully absorbent object, the energy is completely absorbed. The energy carried by the light is given by the Poynting vector.
p = S / c
in the case of a completely reflective surface the energy must be absorbed and remitted, therefore there is a 2-fold change in the process
p = 2S/c

A circular loop of wire has radius of 9.50 cm. A sinusoidal electromagnetic plane wave traveling in air passes through the loop, with the direction of the magnetic field of the wave perpendicular to the plane of the loop. The intensity of the wave at the location of the loop is 0.0295 W/m^2, and the wavelength of the wave is 6.40 m.
Required:
What is the maximum emf induced in the loop?
Answer:
The maximum emf induced in the loop is 0.132 Volts
Explanation:
Given;
radius of the circular loop, r = 9.5 cm
intensity of the wave, I = 0.0295 W/m²
wavelength, λ = 6.40 m
The intensity of the wave is given as;
[tex]I = \frac{B_o^2*c }{2\mu_o}[/tex]
where;
B₀ is the amplitude of the field
c is the speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
μ₀ is permeability of free space = 4π x 10⁻⁵ m/A
[tex]I = \frac{B_o^2*c }{2\mu_o}\\\\B_o^2 = \frac{I*2\mu_o}{c} \\\\B_o^2 = \frac{0.0295*2*4\pi*10^{-7}}{3*10^8} \\\\B_o^2 = 2.472 *10^{-16}\\\\B_o = \sqrt{2.472 *10^{-16}}\\\\ B_o = 1.572*10^{-8} \ T[/tex]
Area of the circular loop;
A = πr²
A = π(0.095)²
A = 0.0284 m²
Frequency of the wave;
f = c / λ
f = (3 x 10⁸) / (6.4)
f = 46875000 Hz
Angular velocity of the wave;
ω = 2πf
ω = 2π(46875000)
ω = 294562500 rad/s
The maximum induced emf is calculated as;
emf = B₀Aω
= (1.572 x 10⁻⁸)(0.0284)(294562500)
= 0.132 Volts
Therefore, the maximum emf induced in the loop is 0.132 Volts

1.5 kg of air within a piston-cylinder assembly executes a Carnot power cycle with maximum and minimum temperatures of 800 K and 300 K, respectively. The heat transfer from the air during the isothermal compression is 80 kJ. At the end of the isothermal compression, the volume is 0.2 m3. Determine the volume at the beginning of the isothermal compression, in m3. Assume the ideal gas model for air and neglect kinetic and potential energy effects.
Answer:
Explanation:
Carton cycle consists of four thermodynamic processes . The first is isothermal expansion at higher temperature , then adiabatic expansion which lowers the temperature of gas . The third process is isothermal compression at lower temperature and the last process is adiabatic compression which increases the temperature of the gas to its original temperature .
So the given process of isothermal compression must have been done at the temperature of 300K , keeping the temperature constant .
Work done on gas at isothermal compression is equal to heat transfer .
work done on gas = 80 x 10³ J
work done on gas = n RT ln v₁ / v₂
n is number of moles v₁ and v₂ are initial and final volume
molecular weight of gas = 28.97 g
1.5 kg = 1500 / 28.97 moles
= 51.77 moles
work done on gas = n RT ln v₁ / v₂
Putting the values in the equation above
80 x 10³ = 51.78 x 8.31 x 300 x ln v₁ / .2
ln v₁ / .2 = .62
v₁ / .2 = 1.8589
v₁ = 0.37 m³
An 1300-turn coil of wire that is 2.2 cmcm in diameter is in a magnetic field that drops from 0.14 TT to 0 TT in 9.0 msms . The axis of the coil is parallel to the field.
What is the emf of the coil? (in V)
Answer:
The induced emf is [tex]\epsilon =7.68 \ V[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The number of turns is [tex]N = 1300 \ turns[/tex]
The diameter is [tex]d = 2.2 \ cm = 2.2*10^{-2}[/tex]
The initial magnetic field is [tex]B_i = 0.14 \ T[/tex]
The final magnetic field is [tex]B_f = 0 \ T[/tex]
The time taken is [tex]dt = 9.0ms = 9.0*10^{-3} \ s[/tex]
The radius is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]r = \frac{d}{2 }[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]r = \frac{2.2 *10^{-2}}{2 }[/tex]
[tex]r = 1.1*10^{-2} \ m[/tex]
The induced emf is mathematically represented as
[tex]\epsilon =- N * \frac{d\phi }{dt }[/tex]
Where [tex]d\phi[/tex] is the change in magnetic field which is mathematically represented as
[tex]d\phi = dB * A * cos\theta[/tex]
=> [tex]d\phi = [B_f - B_i ] * A * cos\theta[/tex]
Here [tex]\theta = 0[/tex] given that the axis of the coil is parallel to the field
Also A is the cross-sectional area which is mathematically represented as
[tex]A = \pi r^2[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]A = 3.142 * [1.1*10^{-2}]^2[/tex]
[tex]A = 3.8 *10^{-4] \ m^2[/tex]
So
[tex]d\phi = [0 - 0.14 ] * 3.8*10^{-4}[/tex]
[tex]d\phi = -5.32*10^{-5} \ weber[/tex]
So
[tex]\epsilon =- 1300 * \frac{-5.32*10^{-5} }{ 9.0*10^{-3} }[/tex]
[tex]\epsilon =7.68 \ V[/tex]
A proton moving at 4.80 106 m/s through a magnetic field of magnitude 1.74 T experiences a magnetic force of magnitude 7.00 10-13 N. What is the angle between the proton's velocity and the field? (Enter both possible answers from smallest to largest. Enter only positive values between 0 and 360.)
Answer:
31.55° and 148.45°
Explanation:
Formula for calculating the force experiences by the proton placed in a magnetic field is as expressed below;
F = qvBsinθ where;
F is the magnetic force experienced by the proton
q is the charge on the proton
v is the velocity of the proton
B is the magnetic field
θ is the angle between the proton's velocity and the field (Required)
Given parameters
F = 7.00 * 10⁻¹³N
q = 1.602*10⁻¹⁹C
v = 4.80 * 10⁶ m/s
B = 1.74 T
θ =?
From the formula F = qvBsinθ;
sinθ = F/qvB
sinθ = 7.00 * 10⁻¹³/1.602*10⁻¹⁹* 4.80 * 10⁶*1.74
sinθ = 7.00 * 10⁻¹³/13.38*10⁻¹³
sinθ = 0.5231689 * 10⁰
sinθ = 0.5231689
θ = sin⁻¹0.5231689
θ = 31.55°
The following are the positive values of the angle between 0° and 360°
Sin is positive in the first and second quadrant. In the second quadrant the angle is equal to 180°-31.55° = 148.45°.
Hence the possible values of the angle from smallest to largest are 31.55° and 148.45°

Answer:
Body inertia I = 4.5 kg/m^2
Explanation:
Here, we want to calculate the body inertia when the arms are stretched outwards.
We know from the question that angular momentum is conserved
Thus;
I * 3 = 4.5 * 3
I = 4.5 kg/m^2
Flywheels are large, massive wheels used to store energy. They can be spun up slowly, then the wheel's energy can be released quickly to accomplish a task that demands high power. An industrial flywheel has a 1.5 m diameter and a mass of 250 kg. Its maximum angular velocity is 1200 rpm.
How long does it take the flywheel to reach top angular speed of 1200 rpm?
Answer:
t = 2.95 min
Explanation:
Given that,
The diameter of flywheeel, d = 1.5 m
Mass of flywheel, m = 250 kg
Initial angular velocity is 0
Final angular velocity, [tex]\omega_f=1200\ rpm = 126\ rad/s[/tex]
We need to find the time taken by the flywheel to each a speed of 1200 rpm if it starts from rest.
Firstly, we will find the angular acceleration of the flywheel.
The moment of inertia of the flywheel,
[tex]I=\dfrac{1}{2}mr^2\\\\I=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 250\times (0.75)^2\\\\I=70.31\ kg-m^2[/tex]
Now,
Let the torque is 50 N-m. So,
[tex]\alpha =\dfrac{\tau}{I}\\\\\alpha =\dfrac{50}{70.31}\\\\\alpha =0.711\ rad/s^2[/tex]
So,
[tex]t=\dfrac{\omega_f-\omega_i}{\alpha }\\\\t=\dfrac{126-0}{0.711}\\\\t=177.21\ s[/tex]
or
t = 2.95 min
A student builds a rocket-propelled cart for a science project. Its acceleration is not quite high enough to win a prize, so he uses a larger rocket engine that provides 39% more thrust, although doing so increases the mass of the cart by 13%. By what percentage does the cart's acceleration increase?
Answer:
Explanation:
a = F / m
where a is acceleration , F is thrust and m is mass
taking log and differentiating
da / a = dF / F - dm / m
(da / a)x 100 = (dF / F)x100 - (dm / m) x100
percentage increase in a = percentage increase in F - percentage increase in m
= percentage increase in acceleration a = 39 - 13 = 26 %
required increase = 26 %.
Scientists studying an anomalous magnetic field find that it is inducing a circular electric field in a plane perpendicular to the magnetic field. The electric field strength is 4.0 mV/m at a point 1.5 m away from the center of the circle. At what rate is the magnetic field changing?
Answer:
The rate at which the magnetic field changes is [tex]\frac{\Delta B }{\Delta t } = - 5.33*10^{-3} \ T/ s[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The electric field strength is [tex]E = 4.0 mV/m = 4.0 *10^{-3} V/m[/tex]
The radius of the circular region where the electric field is induced is
[tex]d = 1.5 \ m[/tex]
Generally the induced electric field is mathematically represented as
[tex]E = - \frac{r}{2} * \frac{\Delta B }{\Delta t }[/tex]
The negative sign show that the induced electric field is acting in opposite direction to the change in magnetic field
Where [tex]\frac{\Delta B }{\Delta t }[/tex] is the change in magnetic field
So
[tex]\frac{\Delta B }{\Delta t } = - \frac{2 * E }{r}[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]\frac{\Delta B }{\Delta t } = - \frac{2 * 4.0 *10^{-3}}{ 1.5 }[/tex]
[tex]\frac{\Delta B }{\Delta t } = - 5.33*10^{-3} \ T/ s[/tex]

Calculate the power of the eye in D when viewing an object 5.70 m away. (Assume the lens-to-retina distance is 2.00 cm. Enter your answer to at least one decimal place.)
Answer:
Power=50.17dioptre
Power=50.17D
Explanation:
P=1/f = 1/d₀ + 1/d₁
Where d₀ = the eye's lens and the object distance= 5.70m=
d₁= the eye's lens and the image distance= 0.02m
f= focal length of the lense of the eye
We know that the object can be viewed clearly by the person ,then image and lens of the eye's distance needs to be equal with the retinal and the eye lens distance and this distance is given as 0.02m
Therefore, we can calculate the power using above formula
P= 1/5.70 + 1/0.02
Power=50.17dioptre
Therefore, the power the eye's is using to see the object from distance is 5.70D

(a) Find the speed of waves on a violin string of mass 717 mg and length 24.3 cm if the fundamental frequency is 980 Hz. (b) What is the tension in the string? For the fundamental, what is the wavelength of (c) the waves on the string and (d) the sound waves emitted by the string? (Take the speed of sound in air to be 343 m/s.)
Answer:
a)v = 476.28 m / s , b) T = 6.69 10⁵ N , c) λ = 0.486 m , d) λ = 0.35 m
Explanation:
a) The speed of a wave on a string is
v = √T /μ
also all the waves fulfill the relationship
v = λ f
they indicate that the fundamental frequency is f = 980 Hz.
The wavelength that is fixed at its ends and has a maximum in the center
L = λ / 2
λ = 2L
we substitute
v = 2 L f
let's calculate
v = 2 0.243 980
v = 476.28 m / s
b) The tension of the rope
T = v² μ
the density of the string is
μ = m / L
T = v² m / L
T = 476.28² 0.717 / 0.243
T = 6.69 10⁵ N
c) λ = 2L
λ = 2 0.243
λ = 0.486 m
d) The violin has a resonance process with the air therefore the frequency of the wave in the air is the same as the wave in the string. Let's find the wavelength in the air
v = λ f
λ= v / f
λ = 343/980
λ = 0.35 m

A 4g bullet, travelling at 589m/s embeds itself in a 2.3kg block of wood that is initially at rest, and together they travel at the same velocity. Calculate the percentage of the kinetic energy that is left in the system after collision to that before.
Answer:
The percentage of the kinetic energy that is left in the system after collision to that before is 0.174 %
Explanation:
Given;
mass of bullet, m₁ = 4g = 0.004kg
initial velocity of bullet, u₁ = 589 m/s
mass of block of wood, m₂ = 2.3 kg
initial velocity of the block of wood, u₂ = 0
let the final velocity of the system after collision = v
Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum
m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v(m₁+m₂)
0.004(589) + 2.3(0) = v(0.004 + 2.3)
2.356 = 2.304v
v = 2.356 / 2.304
v = 1.0226 m/s
Initial kinetic energy of the system
K.E₁ = ¹/₂m₁u₁² + ¹/₂m₂u₂²
K.E₁ = ¹/₂(0.004)(589)² = 693.842 J
Final kinetic energy of the system
K.E₂ = ¹/₂v²(m₁ + m₂)
K.E₂ = ¹/₂ x 1.0226² x (0.004 + 2.3)
K.E₂ = 1.209 J
The kinetic energy left in the system = final kinetic energy of the system
The percentage of the kinetic energy that is left in the system after collision to that before = (K.E₂ / K.E₁) x 100%
= (1.209 / 693.842) x 100%
= 0.174 %
Therefore, the percentage of the kinetic energy that is left in the system after collision to that before is 0.174 %
Four 50-g point masses are at the corners of a square with 20-cm sides. What is the moment of inertia of this system about an axis perpendicular to the plane of the square and passing through its center
Answer:
moment of inertia I ≈ 4.0 x 10⁻³ kg.m²
Explanation:
given
point masses = 50g = 0.050kg
note: m₁=m₂=m₃=m₄=50g = 0.050kg
distance, r, from masses to eachother = 20cm = 0.20m
the distance, d, of each mass point from the centre of the mass, using pythagoras theorem is given by
= (20√2)/ 2 = 10√2 cm =14.12 x 10⁻² m
moment of inertia is a proportion of the opposition of a body to angular acceleration about a given pivot that is equivalent to the entirety of the products of every component of mass in the body and the square of the component's distance from the center
mathematically,
I = ∑m×d²
remember, a square will have 4 equal points
I = ∑m×d² = 4(m×d²)
I = 4 × 0.050 × (14.12 x 10⁻² m)²
I = 0.20 × 1.96 × 10⁻²
I = 3.92 x 10⁻³ kg.m²

4. The Richter scale describes how much energy an earthquake releases. With every increase of 1.0 on the scale, 32 times more energy is released. How many times more energy would be released by a quake measuring 2.0 more units on the Richter scale?
Answer:
64 times
Explanation:
if increase of 1 gives you 32
then increase of 2 will give you its double
64
If you increase one, you get 32 then multiplying by 2 will give you 64, which is its double.
What is Earthquake?An earthquake is a sudden energy released in the Earth's lithosphere that causes shock wave, which cause the Earth's surface to shake. Earthquakes can range in strength from ones that are so small that no one can feel them to quakes that are so powerful that they uproot entire cities, launch individuals and objects into the air, and harm vital infrastructure.
The frequency, kind, and intensity of earthquakes observed over a specific time period are considered to be the seismic activity of an area.
The average rate of earthquake energy output per unit volume determines the basicity of a certain area of the Earth. The non-earthquake seismic rumbling is also alluded to as a tremor.

Determine the slit spacing d. Explain which measurement you made, show your calculation and your result for the slit spacing. There are several measurements you can make.
Answer:
The quantities to measure are:
* the distance to the screen
* The distance from the central maximum to each interference
* in order of interference
* wavelength
Explanation:
To determine the gap spacing we must use the constructive interference equation
d sin θ = m λ
as the angles are small
tan θ = sin θ / cos θ
tan θ = sin θ
and the definition of tangent is
tan θ = y / L
Thus
sin θ = y / L
when replacing
d y / L = m λ
d = m λ L / y
with this equation we can know what parameter should be measured.
The quantities to measure are:
* the distance to the screen
* The distance from the central maximum to each interference
* in order of interference
* wavelength
Consider the following spectrum where two colorful lines (A and B) are positioned on a dark background. The violet end of the spectrum is on the left and the red end of the spectrum is on the right. A B 5. (1 point) What is the name for this type of spectrum? 6. (1 point) Transition A is associated with an electron moving between the n= 1 and n= 3 levels. Transition B is associated with an electron moving between the n= 2 and n= 5 levels. Which transition is associated with a photon of longer wavelength?
Answer:
Explanation:
a )
This type of spectrum is called line emission spectrum . Because it consists of lines . It is emission spectrum because it is due to emission of radiation from a source .
b ) The wavelength of a photon is inversely proportional to its energy . Photon due to transition between n = 1 and n = 3 will have higher energy than
that due to transition between n = 2 and n = 5 . So the later photon ( B) will have greater wavelength or photon due to transition between n = 2 and n = 5 will have greater wavelength .
