No official standard exists for extinguisher-cylinder colors. that said, a red cylinder is typically associated with which type

of extinguisher?

Fire extinguishers are typically red. Goes along with the red fire trucks and red being a color of emergency. While there isn't any standard, if we decided to change the colors of the fire extinguisher, people would be very confused and given the context, it could cost people's lives, so I'm thinking red will be the color of fire extinguishers for a while to come.

To determine the height of a flagpole, Abby throws a ball straight up and times it. She sees that the ball goes by the top of th
Kryger [21]

Answer:

H = 10.05 m

Explanation:

If the stone will reach the top position of flag pole at t = 0.5 s and t = 4.1 s

so here the total time of the motion above the top point of pole is given as

\Delta t = 4.1 - 0.5 = 3.6 s

now we have

\Delta t = \frac{2v}{g}

3.6 = \frac{2v}{9.8}

v = 17.64 m/s

so this is the speed at the top of flag pole

now we have

v_f - v_i = at

17.64 - v_i = (-9.8)(0.5)

v_i = 22.5 m/s

now the height of flag pole is given as

H = \frac{v_f + v_i}{2}t

H = \frac{22.5 + 17.64}{2} (0.5)

H = 10.05 m

what is the rotational kinetic energy of the earth? use the moment of inertia you calculated in part a rather than the actual mo
Ivenika [448]

The Earth's rotational kinetic energy is the kinetic Energy that the Earth

has due to rotation.

The rotational kinetic energy of the Earth is approximately <u>3.331 × 10³⁶ J</u>

Reasons:

<em>The parameters required for the question are;  </em>

<em>Mass of the Earth, M = </em><em>5.97 × 10²⁴ kg</em>

<em>Radius of the Earth, R = </em><em>6.38 × 10⁶ m</em>

<em>The rotational period of the Earth, T = </em><em>24.0 hrs</em><em>.</em>

The \ moment  \ of \  inertia \  of \  uniform \  sphere \  is \ I =   \mathbf{\dfrac{2}{5} \cdot M \cdot R^2}

Which gives;

\mathbf{I_{Earth}} =   \dfrac{2}{5} \times 5.97 \times 10 ^{24} \cdot \left(6.38 \times 10^6 \right)^2 = 9.7202107 \times 10^{37}

\mathrm{The \ rotational \  kinetic  \ energy \  is} \   E_{rotational} = \mathbf{\dfrac{1}{2} \cdot I \cdot \omega^2}

\mathrm{The \ angular \ speed, \ \omega} = \mathbf{\dfrac{2 \dcdot \pi}{T}}

Therefore;

\omega = \dfrac{2 \cdot \pi}{24}  = \dfrac{\pi}{24}

Which gives;

\mathbf{E_{rotational}} = \dfrac{1}{2} \times  9.7202107 \times 10^{37} \times  \left(  \dfrac{\pi}{12} \right)^2 = 3.331 \times 10^{36}

The rotational kinetic energy of the Earth, E_{rotational} = <u>3.331 × 10³⁶ Joules</u>

Two charges are located in the x-y plane. If q1=-4.55 nC and is located at x=0.00 m, y=0.680 m and the second charge has magnitu
Elden [556K]

Answer:

Ex= -23.8 N/C  Ey = 74.3 N/C

Explanation:

As the  electric force is linear, and the electric field, by definition, is just this electric force per unit charge, we can use the superposition principle to get the electric field produced by both charges at any point, as the other charge were not present.

So, we can first the field due to q1, as follows:

Due  to q₁ is negative, and located on the y axis, the field due to this charge will be pointing upward, (like the attractive force between q1 and the positive test charge that gives the direction to the field), as follows:

E₁ = k*(4.55 nC) / r₁²

If we choose the upward direction as the positive one (+y), we can find both components of E₁ as follows:

E₁ₓ = 0   E₁y = 9*10⁹*4.55*10⁻⁹ / (0.68)²m² = 88.6 N/C (1)

For the field due to q₂, we need first to get the distance along a straight line, between q2 and the origin.

It will be just the pythagorean distance between the points located at the coordinates (1.00, 0.600 m) and (0,0), as follows:

r₂² = 1²m² + (0.6)²m² = 1.36 m²

The magnitude of the electric field due to  q2 can be found as follows:

E₂ = k*q₂ / r₂² = 9*10⁹*(4.2)*10⁹ / 1.36 = 27.8 N/C (2)

Due to q2 is positive, the force on the positive test charge will be repulsive, so E₂ will point away from q2, to the left and downwards.

In order to get the x and y components of E₂, we need to get the projections of E₂ over the x and y axis, as follows:

E₂ₓ = E₂* cosθ, E₂y = E₂*sin θ

the  cosine of  θ, is just, by definition, the opposite  of x/r₂:

⇒ cos θ =- (1.00 m / √1.36 m²) =- (1.00 / 1.17) = -0.855

By the same token, sin θ can be obtained as follows:

sin θ = - (0.6 m / 1.17 m) = -0.513

⇒E₂ₓ = 27.8 N/C * (-0.855) = -23.8 N/C (pointing to the left) (3)

⇒E₂y = 27.8 N/C * (-0.513) = -14.3 N/C (pointing downward) (4)

The total x and y components due to both charges are just the sum of the components of Ex and Ey:

Ex = E₁ₓ + E₂ₓ = 0 + (-23.8 N/C) = -23.8 N/C

From (1) and (4), we can get Ey:

Ey = E₁y + E₂y =  88.6 N/C + (-14.3 N/C) =74.3 N/C
