He can increase the total energy of the system by spinning the top faster.

<h3>What is energy?</h3>

The term energy refers to the ability to do work. The total energy of the system refers to the gravitational potential energy and the rotational energy of the top.

Hence, he can increase the total energy of the system by spinning the top faster.

The drawing shows two situations in which charges are placed on the x and y axes. They are all located at the same distance of 5

ra1l [238]

Answer:

For situation (a)

net charge E = E₊₂ + E₋₅ + E₋₃

E = K(q/d²)

where K = 8.99e9

d = 5.7cm = 5.7e-2m

Therefore,

E₊₂(x) = K(q/d²) = (8.99e9)× ((2.0e-6)÷(5.7e-2)) = 3.15e5(+x)

E₋₅(y) = K(q/d²) = (8.99e9)× ((5.0e-6)÷(5.7e-2)) = 7.88e5(+y)

E₋₃(x) = K(q/d²) = (8.99e9)× ((3.0e6)÷(5.7e-2)) = 4.73e5(+x)

thus

E = E₊₂ + E₋₅ + E₋₃

= 3.15e5(x) + 7.88e5(y) + 4.73e6(x)

= 7.88e6(x) + 7.88e6(y)

use Pythagorean theorem

I <em>E </em>I = $\sqrt{(7.89e5)^{2} + (7.89e5)^{2}}$ = 1.242e6 $\frac{N}{C}$

∅ = $tan^{-1}$ $(\frac{7.88e5}{7.88e5} )$ = $tan^{-1}(1)$ = 45°

Thus for (a) net magnitude = 1.115e6 $\frac{N}{C}$ @ 45° above +x axis

for situation (b)

net charge E = E₊₄ + E₊₁ + E₋₁ + E₊₆

E₊₄(x) = K(q/d²) = (8.99e9)× ((4.0e-6)÷(5.7e-2)) = 6.30e5(+x)

E₊₁(y) = K(q/d²) = (8.99e9)× ((1.0e-6)÷(5.7e-2)) = 1.58e5(-y)

E₋₁(x) = K(q/d²) = (8.99e9)× ((1.0e-6)÷(5.7e-2)) = 1.58e5(+x)

E₊₆(y) = K(q/d²) = (8.99e9)× ((6.0e-6)÷(5.7e-2)) = 9.46e5(+y)

thus,

E = E₊₄ + E₊₁ + E₋₁ + E₊₆

= 6.30e5(x) - 1.58e5(y) + 1.58e5(x) + 9.46e5(y)

= 7.88e5(x) + 7.88e5(y)

use Pythagorean theorem

I <em>E </em>I = $\sqrt{(7.88e5)^{2} + (7.88e5)^{2}}$ = 1.242e6 $\frac{N}{C}$

∅ = $tan^{-1}$ $(\frac{7.88e5}{7.88e5} )$ = $tan^{-1}(1)$ = 45°

Thus for (a) and (b) the net magnitude = 1.242e6 $\frac{N}{C}$ @ 45° above +x axis

(1 point) A pilot flies in a straight path for 1 hour and 30 min. She then makes a course correction, heading 10 degrees to the

kati45 [8]

Answer:

The pilot is 2214.22 miles from her starting position

Explanation:

Since the pilot is traveling at a constant speed of 635 mph, the total distance traveled can be easily found as follows:

$1stleg: d_{1} = 1.5*635 = 952.5 mi\\2ndleg: d_{2} = 2*635 = 1270 mi$

There was a 10 degrees deviation, so the angle between the trajectory of both legs is 170 degrees.

The distance we need to find is that from the start of the first leg to the end of the second leg, those three distances form a triangle and since the side we're interested in is opposite to the 170 degrees angle, we can determine its length by the law of cosines:

$d_{3}^{2} =d_{1}^{2} + d_{2}^{2} -2*d_{1}*d_{2}*cos(170)\\d_{3}^{2} =952.5^{2} + 1270^{2} -2*952.5*1270*cos(170)\\d_{3}=2214.22mi$
