work done will be 2.5872 J

Given :

mass of block = 2kg

distance travelled by block = 20cm

angle of inclination = 40°

To Find :

Work done by gravity

Solution :

Gravity is defined as the force that attracts a body towards the earth or towards any other physical body having mass.

work done by gravity is mgh

If θ is the angle made when the body falls, the work done by gravity is given by,

W = m g h cosθ

W = 2 x 9.8 x 0.2 x cos40°

= 2.5872 J

So work done will be 2.5872 J

A particle of charge 3.53×10 ​−8 ​​ C experiences a force of magnitude 6.03×10 ​−6 ​​ N when it is placed in a particular point
Cloud [144]
<h2>Electric field at the location of the charge is 169.97 N/C</h2>

Explanation:

Electric field is the ratio of force and charge.

Force, F = 6 x 10⁻⁶ N

Charge, q = 3.53 x 10⁻⁸ C

We have           

       E=\frac{F}{q}\\\\E=\frac{6\times 10^{-6}}{3.53\times 10^{-8}}\\\\E=169.97N/C

Electric field at the location of the charge is 169.97 N/C

In the diagram, the arrow shows the movement of electric charges through a wire connected to a battery.
solong [7]

Due to difference in electric potential.

<h3>What is Potential difference?</h3>

The amount of work in an electrical field to move a unit charge from one place to another is known as the electrical potential difference.

Here , the potential difference is the difference in electric potential between two charged substances.

Current is the flow of charges from one end end to another end of a conducting wire connected across a two terminals of a battery.

The potential difference is [provided by the battery across the two terminals due which the charges flow.

Current flow is from positive to negative terminals, indicating the movement of positive charges in that direction.

Hence , potential difference causes the electric charges to flow from one end of the battery .

Sam, whose mass is 75 kg , takes off across level snow on his jet-powered skis. The skis have a thrust of 160 N and a coefficien
Volgvan

Answer:

top speed = 17.25

Total height = 281.19 m

Explanation:

given data

mass = 75 kg

thrust = 160 N

coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.1

solution

we get here frictional force acting that is

frictional force = \mu *m*g   .............1

frictional force = 0.1 × 75 × 9.8

frictional force = 73.5 N

and

Net force acting will be F = 160 - 73.5  N

F = 86.5 N

so

Acceleration in the First 15 second  will be

F = ma .........2

86.5 = 75 × a

a = 1.15 m/s²

and

now After 15 second the velocity will be  as

v = u + at   ..........3

here u is 0

so v will be

V = 1.15 × 15

v = 17.25

and

now we get travels distance S  in 15 s

s = u × t + 0.5 × a × t²  

here u is 0

so distance s will be

s = 0.5 × a × t²  

s = 0.5 ×  1.15 × 15²  

s = 129.37 m

and

now  acceleration acting is

F =  \mu *m*g  

m a =  \mu *m*g

a = \mu* g

a = - 0.98

here it is negative it mean downward nature of acceleration

and

now we get distance s by this formula

V² - u² = 2 a s    

here v velocity is 0  and

u initial velocity is 17.25 m/s

put here value

0 - 17.25² = 2 × (-0.98) × s    

solve it we get

s = 151.82 m

so

Total height is

Total height = 129.37 m + 151.82 m

Total height = 281.19 m

A hippo drives 42 km due East. He then turns and drives 28 km at 25° East of South. He turns again and drives 32 km at 40° North
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

a) Please, see the attched figure

b) Total displacement R = (78.3 km; -4.8 km)

c) R = (78.4 km * cos (-3.5°); 78.4 km * sin (-3.5°))

d) The hippo is 78.4 km from his starting point.

The total distance traveled is 102 km

Explanation:

a)Please, see the attached figure.

b) The vector A can be expressed as:

A = (magnitude * cos α; magnitude * sin α)

Where

magnitude = 42 km

α= 0

Then,

A = (42 km ; 0) or 42 km i

In the same way, we can proceed with the other vectors:

B = ( Bx ; By)

where

(apply trigonometry of right triangles: sen α = opposite / hypotenuse and

cos α = adjacent / hypotenuse. See the figure to determine which component of vector B is the opposite and adjacent side to α)

Bx = 28 km * sin 25 = 11.8 km

By = 28 km * cos 25 = -25.4 km (it has to be negative since it is directed towards the negative vertical region according to our reference system)

B = (11.8 km; -25.4 km) or 11.8 km i - 25.4 km j

C = (Cx; Cy)

where

Cx = 32 km * cos 40° = 24.5 km

Cy = 32 km * sin 40 = 20.6 km

C = (24.5 km; 20.6 km)

Then:

R = A+B+C = (42 km + 11.8 km + 24.5 km; 0 - 25.4 km + 20.6 km)

= (78.3 km; -4.8 km) or 78.3 km i -4.8 km j

c) R = (78.3 km; -4.8 km)

The magnitude of R is:

magnitude = \sqrt{(78.3)^{2 }+ (-4.8)^{2}}= 78.4 km

Using trigonometry, we can calculate the angle:

Knowing that

tan α = opposite / adjacent

and that

opposite = Ry = -4.8 km

adjacent = Rx = 78.3 km

Then:

tan α = -4.8 km / 78.4 km

α = -3.5°

We can now write the vector R in magnitude and direction form:

R = (78.4 km * cos (-3.5°); 78.4 km * sin (-3.5°))

d) The displacement of the hipo relative to the starting point is the magnitude of vector R calculated in c):

magnitude R = 78. 4 km

The total distance traveled is the sum of the magnitudes of each vector:

Total distance = 42 km + 28 km + 32 km = 102 km
