Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

At one instant,

Center of mass is at 2m

Xcm = 2m

And velocity =5•i m/s

One of the particle is at the origin

M1=? X1 =0

The other has a mass M2=0.1kg

And it is at rest at position X2= 8m

a. Center of mass is given as

Xcm = (M1•X1 + M2•X2) / (M1+M2)

2 = (M1×0 + 0.1×8) /(M1 + 0.1)

2 = (0+ 0.8) /(M1 + 0.1)

Cross multiply

2(M1+0.1) = 0.8

2M1 + 0.2 =0.8

2M1 = 0.8-0.2

2M1 = 0.6

M1 = 0.6/2

M1 = 0.3kg

b. Total momentum, this is an inelastic collision and it momentum after collision is given as

P= (M1+M2)V

P = (0.3+0.1)×5•i

P = 0.4 × 5•i

P = 2 •i kgm/s

c. Velocity of particle at origin

Using conversation of momentum

Momentum before collision is equal to momentum after collision

P(before) = M1 • V1 + M2 • V2

We are told that M2 is initially at rest, then, V2=0

So, P(before) = 0.3V1

We already got P(after) = 2 •i kgm/s in part b of the question

Then,

P(before) = P(after)

0.3V1 = 2 •i

V1 = 2/0.3 •i

V1 = 6 ⅔ •i m/s

V1 = 6.667 •i m/s

A point charge q1 = 4.50 nC is located on the x-axis at x = 1.95 m , and a second point charge q2 = -6.80 nC is on the y-axis at
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

Explanation:

One charge is situated at x = 1.95 m . Second charge is situated at y = 1.00 m

These two charges are situated outside sphere as it has radius of .365 m with center at origin. So charge inside sphere = zero.

Applying Gauss's theorem

Flux through spherical surface = charge inside sphere / ε₀

= 0 / ε₀

= 0 Ans .

Answer:

 t = 23.255 s,   x = 2298.98 m,    v_y = - 227.90 m / s

Explanation:

After reading your extensive writing, we are going to solve the approach.

The initial speed of the plane is 250 miles / h and it is at an altitude of 2650 m; In general, planes fly horizontally for launch, therefore this is the initial horizontal speed.

As there is a mixture of units in different systems we are going to reduce everything to the SI system.

         v₀ₓ = 250 miles h (1609.34 m / 1 mile) (1 h / 3600 s) = 111.76 m / s

         y₀ = 2650 m

Let's set a reference system with the x-axis parallel to the ground, the y-axis is vertical. As time is a scalar it is the same for vertical and horizontal movement

Y axis  

       y = y₀ + v₀ t - ½ g t²

the initial vertical velocity when the cargo is dropped is zero and when it reaches the floor the height is zero

       0 = y₀ + 0 - ½ g t²

       t = \sqrt{  \frac{2 y_o}{g} }

       t = √(2 2650/ 9.8)

       t = 23.255 s

Therefore, for the cargo to reach the desired point, it must be launched from a distance of

       x = v₀ₓ t

       x = 111.76 23.255

       x = 2298.98 m

at the point and arrival the speed is

        vₓ = v₀ₓ = 111.76

     

vertical speed is

         v_y = v_{oy} - gt

          v_y = 0 - gt

          v_y = - 9.8 23.25 555

         v_y = - 227.90 m / s

the negative sign indicates that the speed is down

in the attachment we have a diagram of the movement

Write equations for both the electric and magnetic fields for an electromagnetic wave in the red part of the visible spectrum th
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

The peak magnetic field of the electromagnetic wave in the red part of the visible spectrum is 9.67 x 10⁻¹⁰ T.

<h3>Relationship between electric and magnetic field</h3>

The relationship between electric and magnetic field at a given peak electric field is given as;

c = (E₀) / (B₀)

where;

  • c is speed of light
  • E₀ is the peak electric field
  • B₀ is the peak magnetic field

B₀ = E₀ / c

B₀ = (2.9) / (3 x 10⁹)

B₀ = 9.67 x 10⁻¹⁰ T

Thus, the peak magnetic field of the electromagnetic wave in the red part of the visible spectrum is 9.67 x 10⁻¹⁰ T.
