5 0

Answer:

M = 50 kg / sec * 60 sec = 3000 kg water that falls

PE = M g h initial potential energy of water

PE = 3000 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * 20 m = 588,000 joules of energy lost

A thin, flat washer is a disk with an outer diameter of 14 cm and a hole in the center with a diameter of 7 cm. The washer has a

Kryger [21]

Answer:

2583.9 N/C

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Outer diameter = 14 cm

Outer radius, R = 7cm = 0.07m

Inner diameter = 7 cm

Inner radius, r = 3.5 cm = 0.035m

Charge of washer = 8 nC = 8 * 10^(-9)C

Distance from washer, z = 33 cm = 0.33m

The electric field due to a washer (hollow disk) is given as:

E = k * σ * 2π [ 1 - z/(√(z² + R²)]

Where σ = charge per unit area

σ = q/π(R² - r²)

σ = 8 * 10^(-9) /(π*(0.07 - 0.035)²)

σ = 2.077 * 10^(-6) C/m²

=> E = 9 * 10^9 * 2.077 * 10^(-6) * 2π * [1 - 0.33/(√(0.33² + 0.07²)]

E = 117.467 * 10^3 * (1 - 0.978)

E = 117.467 * 10^3 * 0.022

E = 2583.9 N/C

A positive point charge Q is fixed on a very large horizontal frictionless tabletop. A second positive point charge q is release

Scilla [17]

Answer:

(A) As it moves farther and farther from Q, its speed will keep increasing.

Explanation:

When a positive charge Q is fixed on a horizontal frictionless tabletop and a second charge q is released near to it then according to the Coulombs law the force acting on it decreases with the square of the distance between them.

Mathematically:

$F=\frac{1}{4\pi.\epsilon_0} \times \frac{Q.q}{r^2}$

where:

r = distance between the charges

$\epsilon_0=$ permittivity of free space

By the Newtons' second law of motion if the we know that the acceleration is directly proportional to the force applied. So as the distance between the charges increases the its acceleration also decreases therefore now the charge feels less acceleration but still continues to accelerate with a fading magnitude.

Multiple-Concept Example 13 presents useful background for this problem. The cheetah is one of the fastest accelerating animals,

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

9241.6 W or 12.39318 hp

Explanation:

u = Initial velocity = 0

v = Final velocity

m = Mass

t = Time taken

Energy

$KE=\frac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)\\\Rightarrow KE=\frac{1}{2}108(30.4^2-0^2)\\\Rightarrow KE=49904.64\ Joules$

Power

$P=\frac{KE}{t}\\\Rightarrow P=\frac{49904.64}{5.4}\\\Rightarrow P=9241.6\ W$

Converting to hp

$1\ W=\frac{1}{745.7}\ hp$

$\\\Rightarrow 9241.6\ W=\frac{9241.6}{745.7}\ hp=12.39318\ hp$

The power developed by the cheetah is 9241.6 W or 12.39318 hp
