A charge of 0.14 C is moved from a position where the electric potential is 20 V to a position where the electric potential is 5

0 V. What is the change in potential energy of the charge associated with the change in position?

The change in electric potential energy is given by:

ΔU = ΔVq

ΔU = change in PE, ΔV = potential difference, q = charge

Given values:

ΔV = 50V - 20V = 30V, q = 0.14C

Plug in and solve for ΔU:

ΔU = 30(0.14)

ΔU = 4.2J

How much heat must be removed from 200 pounds of blanched vegetables at 189 degrees F to freeze them to a temperature of 22 degr

Virty [35]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to heat exchange in the vegetable and water.

By definition the exchange of heat is given by

$Q =mc\Delta T$

where,

m = mass

c = specific heat

$\Delta T$ = Change in temperature

Therefore the total heat exchange is given as

$\Delta Q = Q_w+Q_v$

$\Delta Q = m_wc_w(T_i-T_f)+m_vc_v(T_i-T_f)$

Our values are given as,

Total mass is $M_T$ = 200lb ,however the mass of solid vegetable and water is given as,

$m_v= 0.4*200lb = 80lb$

$m_w=0.6*200lb=120lb$

$T_i = 183\°F\\T_f = 22\°F\\c_w = 1Btu/lbF\\c_v = 0.24Btu/lbF$

Replacing at our equation we have,

$\Delta Q = m_wc_w(T_i-T_f)+m_vc_v(T_i-T_f)$

$\Delta Q = (120)(1)(183-22)+(80)(0.24)(183-22)$

$\Delta Q = 22411.2Btu$

Therefore the heat removed is 22411.2 Btu

A horizontal vinyl record of mass 0.10 kg and radius 0.10 m rotates freely about a vertical axis through its center with an angu

Tresset [83]

Answer:

The angular speed of the record is 3.36 rad/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of record= 0.10 kg

Radius = 0.10 m

Angular speed = 4.7 rad/s

Moment of inertia $I=5.0\times10^{-4}\ kgm^2$

Mass of putty = 0.020 kg

We need to calculate the angular speed

Using law of conservation of momentum

$L_{i}=L_{f}$

$I\omega_{i}=(I+mr^2)\omega_{f}$

$\omega_{f}=\dfrac{I\omega_{i}}{(I+mr^2)}$

Put the value into the formula

$\omega_{f}=\dfrac{5.0\times10^{-4}\times4.7}{5.0\times10^{-4}+0.020\times(0.10)^2}$

$\omega_{f}=3.36\ rad/s$

Hence, The angular speed of the record is 3.36 rad/s.

In a certain experiment, a radio transmitter emits sinusoidal electromagnetic waves of fre- quency 110.0 MHz in opposite directi

Shkiper50 [21]

To solve the problem it is necessary to take into account the concepts related to frequency depending on the wavelength and the speed of light.

By definition we know that the frequency is equivalent to,

$f=\frac{c}{\lambda}$

where,

c= Speed of light

$\lambda = Wavelength$

While the wavelength is equal to,

$\lambda = \frac{2L}{n}$

Where,

L = Length

n = Number of antinodes/nodes

PART A) For the first part we have that our wavelength is 110MHz, therefore

$\lambda = \frac{c}{f}$

$\lambda = \frac{3*10^8}{11*10^6}$

$\lambda = 1.36m$

Therefore the distance between the nodal planes is 1.36m

PART B) For this part we need to find the Length through the number of nodes (8) and the wavelength, that is,

$\lambda'=\frac{2L}{n}$

$L = \frac{\lambda n}{2}$

$L = \frac{8*2.72}{2}$

$L = 10.90m$

Therefore the length of the cavity is 10.90m

What is the average speed (in miles per hour) of the car that traveled a total of 200 miles in 5.5 hours

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

Average speed of the car is 36.36 miles per hour

Explanation:

It is given that,

Total distance traveled by the car, d = 200 miles

Total time taken, t = 5.5 hours

In this case, we have to find the average speed of the car. Average speed of the car is defined as the total distance divided by total time taken. Mathematically, it can be written as :

s = 36.36 miles per hour

Hence, the average speed of the car is 36.36 miles per hour. \
