Answer:

C) 7.35*10⁶ N/C radially outward

Explanation:

  • If we apply the Gauss'law, to a spherical gaussian surface with radius r=7 cm, due to the symmetry, the electric field must be normal to the surface, and equal at all points along it.
  • So, we can write the following equation:

       E*A = \frac{Q_{enc} }{\epsilon_{0}} (1)

  • As the electric field must be zero inside the conducting spherical shell, this means that the charge enclosed by a spherical gaussian surface of a radius between 4 and 5 cm, must be zero too.
  • So, the +8 μC charge of  the solid conducting sphere of radius 2cm, must be compensated by an equal and opposite charge on the inner surface of the conducting shell of total charge -4 μC.
  • So, on the outer surface of the shell there must be a charge that be the difference between them:

        Q_{enc} = - 4e-6 C - (-8e-6 C) = + 4 e-6 C

  • Replacing in (1) A = 4*π*ε₀, and Qenc = +4 μC, we can find the value of E, as follows:

      E = \frac{1}{4*\pi*\epsilon_{0} } *\frac{Q_{enc} }{r^{2} } = \frac{9e9 N*m2/C2*4e-6C}{(0.07m)^{2} } = 7.35e6 N/C

  • As the charge that produces this electric field is positive, and the electric field has the same direction as the one taken by a positive test charge under the influence of this field, the direction of the field is radially outward, away from the positive charge.

A 2.93 kg particle has a velocity of (2.98 i hat - 3.98 j) m/s.
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

a) The x and y components of the momentum are 8.731\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s} and -11.661\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s}, respectively.

b) The magnitude and direction of its momentum are approximately 14.567 kilogram-meters per second and 306.823º.

Explanation:

a) The vectorial equation of momentum is represented by the following expression:

\vec p = m\cdot \vec v (1)

Where:

\vec p - Vector momentum, measured in kilogram-meters per second.

m - Mass of the particle, measured in kilograms.

\vec v - Vector velocity, measured in meters per second.

If we know that m = 2.93\,kg and \vec v = 2.98\,\hat{i}-3.98\,\hat{j}\,\,\,\left[\frac{m}{s} \right], then the momentum is:

\vec p = (2.93)\cdot (2.98\,\hat{i}-3.98\,\hat{j})\,\,\,\left[\frac{kg\cdot m}{s} \right]

\vec p = 8.731\,\hat{i}-11.661\,\hat{j}\,\,\,\left[\frac{kg\cdot m}{s} \right]

The x and y components of the momentum are 8.731\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s} and -11.661\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s}, respectively.

b) The magnitude and direction of momentum are represented by the following expressions:

\|\vec p \| = \sqrt{p_{x}^{2}+p_{y}^{2}} (2)

\theta = \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{p_{y}}{p_{x}} \right) (3)

Where:

\|\vec p\| - Magnitude of momentum, measured in kilogram-meters per second.

\theta - Direction of momentum, measured in sexagesimal degrees.

If we know that p_{x} = 8.731\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s} and p_{y} = -11.661\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s}, then the magnitude and direction of momentum are, respectively:

\|\vec p\| = \sqrt{\left(8.731\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s} \right)^{2}+\left(-11.661\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s} \right)^{2}}

\|\vec p\| \approx 14.567\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s}

\theta =\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{-11.661\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s} }{8.731\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s} } \right)

\theta \approx 306.823^{\circ}

The magnitude and direction of its momentum are approximately 14.567 kilogram-meters per second and 306.823º.

An airplane propeller is 2.68 m in length (from tip to tip) and has a mass of 107 kg. When the airplane's engine is first starte
telo118 [61]

Answer:

a)30.14 rad/s2

b)43.5 rad/s

c)60633 J

d)42 kW

e)84 kW

Explanation:

If we treat the propeller is a slender rod, then its moments of inertia is

I =\frac{mL^2}{12} = \frac{107*2.68^2}{12} = 64.04 kgm^2

a. The angular acceleration is Torque divided by moments of inertia:

\alpha = \frac{T}{I} = \frac{1930}{64.04} = 30.14 rad/s^2

b. 5 revolution would be equals to 10\pi rad, or 31.4 rad. Since the engine just got started

\omega^2 = 2\alpha\theta = 2*30.14*31.4 = 1893.5

\omega = \sqrt{1893.5} = 43.5 rad/s

c. Work done during the first 5 revolution would be torque times angular displacement:

W = T*\theta = 1930 * 31.4 = 60633 J

d. The time it takes to spin the first 5 revolutions is

t = \frac{\omega}{\alpha} = \frac{43.5}{30.14} = 1.44 s

The average power output is work per unit time

P = \frac{W}{t} = \frac{60633}{1.44} = 41991 W or 42 kW

e.The instantaneous power at the instant of 5 rev would be Torque times angular speed at that time:

P_i = T*\omega = 1930*43.5=83983 W or 84 kW

A dog is 10 m from a cat, whose speeds are 6 and 5 m / s, respectively. What time does the dog require to catch the cat?
scoray [572]

Answer:

10 seconds

Explanation:

because the cat is moving one m/s slower than the dog, the dog has a relative speed of 1 m/s. 10 meters would take 10 seconds for the dog to cover
