Assuming that all energy of the small ball is transferred to the bigger ball upon impact, then we can say that:

Potential Energy of the small ball = Kinetic Energy of the bigger ball

Potential Energy = mass * gravity * height

Since the small ball start at 45 cm, then the height covered during the swinging movement is only:

height = 50 cm – 45 cm = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Calculating for Potential Energy, PE:

PE = 2 kg * 9.8 m / s^2 * 0.05 m = 0.98 J

Therefore, maximum kinetic energy of the bigger ball is:

<span>Max KE = PE = 0.98 J</span>

Simple Pendulum: A 34-kg child on an 18-kg swing set swings back and forth through small angles. If the length of the very light

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is "4.443 sec".

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of child,

= 34 kg

Mass of swing,

= 18 kg

Length,

= 4.9 m

The time period of pendulum will be:

T = $2 \pi \sqrt{4g}$

= $2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{4.9}{9.8} }$

= $4.443 \ sec$

A long metal cylinder with radius a is supported on an insulating stand on the axis of a long, hollow, metal tube with radius b.

bija089 [108]

a)

i) Potential for r < a: $V(r)=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} ln(\frac{b}{a})$

ii) Potential for a < r < b: $V(r)=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} ln\frac{b}{r}$

iii) Potential for r > b: $V(r)=0$

b) Potential difference between the two cylinders: $V_{ab}=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} ln(\frac{b}{a})$

c) Electric field between the two cylinders: $E=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} \frac{1}{r}$

Explanation:

a)

Here we want to calculate the potential for r < a.

Before calculating the potential, we have to keep in mind that the electric field outside an infinite wire or an infinite cylinder uniformly charged is

$E=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0 r}$

where

$\lambda$ is the linear charge density

r is the distance from the wire/surface of the cylinder

By integration, we find an expression for the electric potential at a distance of r:

$V(r) =\int Edr = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} ln(r)$

Inside the cylinder, however, the electric field is zero, because the charge contained by the Gaussian surface is zero:

$E=0$

So the potential where the electric field is zero is constant:

$V=const.$

iii) We start by evaluating the potential in the region r > b. Here, the net electric field is zero, because the Gaussian surface of radius r here contains a positive charge density $+\lambda$ and an equal negative charge density $-\lambda$ . Therefore, the net charge is zero, so the electric field is zero.

This means that the electric potential is constant, so we can write:

$\Delta V= V(r) - V(b) = 0\\\rightarrow V(r)=V(b)$

However, we know that the potential at b is zero, so

$V(r)=V(b)=0$

ii) The electric field in the region a < r < b instead it is given only by the positive charge $+\lambda$ distributed over the surface of the inner cylinder of radius a, therefore it is

$E=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi r \epsilon_0}$

And so the potential in this region is given by:

$V(r)=\int\limits^b_r {Edr} = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} (ln(b)-ln(r))=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} ln\frac{b}{r}$ (1)

i) Finally, the electric field in the region r < a is zero, because the charge contained in this region is zero (we are inside the surface of the inner cylinder of radius a):

E = 0

This means that the potential in this region remains constant, and it is equal to the potential at the surface of the inner cylinder, so calculated at r = a, which can be calculated by substituting r = a into expression (1):

$V(a)=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} ln(\frac{b}{a})$

And so, for r<a,

$V(r)=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} ln(\frac{b}{a})$

b)

Here we want to calculate the potential difference between the surface of the inner cylinder and the surface of the outer cylinder.

We have:

- Potential at the surface of the inner cylinder:

$V(a)=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} ln(\frac{b}{a})$

- Potential at the surface of the outer cylinder:

$V(b)=0$

Therefore, the potential difference is simply equal to

$V_{ab}=V(a)-V(b)=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} ln(\frac{b}{a})$

c)

Here we want to find the magnitude of the electric field between the two cylinders.

The expression for the electric potential between the cylinders is

$V(r)=\int\limits^b_r {Edr} = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} (ln(b)-ln(r))=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} ln\frac{b}{r}$

The electric field is just the derivative of the electric potential:

$E=-\frac{dV}{dr}$

so we can find it by integrating the expression for the electric potential. We find:

$E=-\frac{d}{dr}(\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} (ln(b)-ln(r))=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} \frac{1}{r}$

So, this is the expression of the electric field between the two cylinders.

A solution containing 10.0 g of an unknown liquid and 90.0 g water has a freezing point of -3.33 °C. Given Kf = 1.86 °C/m for wa

Fantom [35]

Answer:

62.06 g/mol

Explanation:

We are given that a solution containing 10 g of an unknown liquid and 90 g

Given mass of solute = $W_B$ =10 g

Given mass of solvent= $W_A$ =90 g

$k_f=1.86^{\circ}C/m$

Freezing point of solution =-3.33 $^{\circ}$ C

Freezing point of solvent = $0^{\circ}$ C

Change in freezing point =Depression in freezing point

=Freezing point of solvent - freezing point of solution=0+3.33= $3.33^{\circ}$

$\Delta T_f=\frac{W_B\times K_f\times 1000}{W_A\times M_B}$

$M_B=\frac{10\times 1.86\times 1000}{3.33\times 90}$

$M_B=62.06 g/mol$

Hence, molar mass of unknown liquid is 62.06g/mol.
