Answer:

92.25 kgm^2

Explanation:

Assume both children bodies are point particles. The total moment of inertia about the rotation axis of 2 points particles of mass 16 kg and 25 kg at 1.5 m arm length is

\sum I = m_1r_1^2 + m_2r_2^2

where m_1 = 16 kg, m_2 = 25 kg are the masses of 2 children r_1 = R-2 = 1.5m are their distance to the center of rotation

\sum I = 16*1.5^2 + 25*1.5^2 = 1.5^2(16 + 25) = 92.25 kgm^2

A velocity selector in a mass spectrometer uses a 0.150 T magnetic field. (a) What electric field strength (in volts per meter)
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

The electric field strength is 6.6\times10^{5}\ V/m

Explanation:

Given that,

Magnetic field = 0.150 T

Speed v= 4.40\times10^{6}\ m/s

We need to calculate the electric field strength

Using formula of velocity

v=\dfrac{E}{B}

E=v\times B

Where, v = speed

B = magnetic field

Put the value into the formula

E=4.40\times10^{6}\times0.150

E=660000\ V/m

E=6.6\times10^{5}\ V/m

Hence, The electric field strength is 6.6\times10^{5}\ V/m

Kaylis [27]
<span>Data:

</span>R = 5 Ω
U = 12 V
i = ?
<span>
Formula:

</span>U = R*i → i =  \frac{U}{R}<span>

Solving:

</span>i = \frac{U}{R}
i = \frac{12}{5}
\boxed{i = 2.4A}

Answer:

<span>The current through the resistor is 2.4 Amperes</span><span>
