a force vector f has a magnitude of 12.0 n. it is oriented 60° to the left of the y ax what are its x and y components?

1 answer:

5 0

The force vector that has a magnitude of 12.0 N. and is oriented 60° to the left of the (y) has the followings components:

v(x) =6 N
v(y) = 10.39 N

To solve this exercise the formulas and procedures we will use are:

v(x) = v * cosine (angle)
v(y) = v * sine (angle).

Where:

v= magnitude of the vector
v(x) = component of the vector on the (x) axis
v(y) = component of the vector on the (y) axis
angle = angle

Information about the problem:

angle = 60º
v = 12.0 N
v(x)= ?
v(y)= ?

Applying the formula of the component of the vector in the (x) axis we have:

v(x) = v * cosine (angle).

v(x) = 12.0 N * cosine (60º)

v(x) =6 N

Applying the formula of the component of the vector in the (y) axis we have:

v(y) = v * sine (angle)

v(y) = 12.0 N * sine (60º)

v(y) = 10.39 N

Two identical tiny spheres of mass m =2g and charge q hang from a non-conducting strings, each of length L = 10cm. At equilibriu

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

0.247 μC

Explanation:

As both sphere will be at the same level at wquilibrium, the direction of the electric force will be on the x axis. As you can see in the picture below, the x component of the tension of the string of any of the spheres should be equal to the electric force of repulsion. And its y component will be equal to the weight of one sphere. We can use trigonometry to find the components of the tensions:

$F_y: T_y - W = 0\\T_y = m*g = 0.002 kg *9.81m/s^2 = 0.01962 N$

$T_y = T_*cos(50)\\T = \frac{T_y}{cos(50)} = 0.0305 N$

$T_x = T*sin(50) = 0.0234 N$

The electric force is given by the expression:

$F = k*\frac{q_1*q_2}{r^2}$

In equilibrium, the distance between the spheres will be equal to 2 times the length of the string times sin(50):

$r = 2*L*sin(50) = 2 * 0.1m * sin(50) 0.1532 m$

And k is the coulomb constan equal to 9 *10^9 N*m^2/C^2. q1 y q2 is the charge of each particle, in this case, they are equal.

$F_x = T_x - F_e = 0\\T_x = F_e = k*\frac{q^2}{r^2}$

$q = \sqrt{T_x *\frac{r^2}{k}} = \sqrt{0.0234 N * \frac{(0.1532m)^2}{9*10^9 N*m^2/C^2} } = 2.4704 * 10^-7 C$

Two teams of nine members each engage in tug-of-war. Each of the first team's members has an average mass of 68 kg and exerts an

diamong [38]

Answer:

(a) Acceleration = 0.1063 m/s^2 (Second team wins)

(b) Tension in rope = 65.106 N

Explanation:

Total mass of first team = 68 * 9 = 612 kg

Total force of first team = 1350 * 9 = 12150 N

Total mass of second team = 73 * 9 = 657 kg

Total force of seconds team = 1365 * 9 = 12285 N

Difference in force = 12285 - 12150 = 135 N (towards the second team as it has more force)

(a) For acceleration we get:

F = m * a

135 = (mass of both teams) * a

a = 135 / (612 + 657)

acceleration = 0.1063 m/s^2 (Second team wins)

(b) Since we know the acceleration of the first team (pulling being pulled towards the second team at an acceleration of 0.1063 m/s^2) , we can find out the force required to move them:

Force required for first team = mass of first team * acceleration

Force required = 612 * 0.1063

Force required = 65.106 N

This is the force exerted on the first team through the rope, so the tension in the rope will also be 65.106 N.

An electron entering the lower left side of a parallel plate capacitor and exiting at the upper right side. The initial speed of

Masja [62]

Answer:

magnitude is 1382.59 N/C

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

The time taken is;

t = x / v

we substitute;

t = ( 2 × 10⁻²) / ( 5.69 × 10⁶ )

t = 3.5149 × 10⁻⁹ s

next, the acceleration is;

a = 2y/t² = [2( 0.150 × 10⁻²)] / [ ( 3.5149 × 10⁻⁹ )² ]

a = 2.42826 × 10¹⁴ m/s²

now, the electric field is;

E = ma / q

we know that;

mass of electron m = 9.11 × 10⁻³¹ kg,

charge of electron q = 1.60 × 10⁻¹⁹ coulomb

we substitute

E = ( 9.11 × 10⁻³¹ )(2.42826 × 10¹⁴) / 1.60 × 10⁻¹⁹

E = 2.21214 × 10⁻¹⁶ / 1.60 × 10⁻¹⁹

E = 1.3826 × 10²¹

E = 1382.59 N/C

Therefore, magnitude is 1382.59 N/C
