Answer:

No

Explanation:

The supplied information about the object and train is incomplete. Acceleration is the rate at which the velocity of a body changes with time. Here the velocity and time is not given

boyakko [2]

Answer:

  L₀ = L_f ,  K_f < K₀

Explanation:

For this exercise we start as the angular momentum, with the friction force they are negligible and if we define the system as formed by the disk and the clay sphere, the forces during the collision are internal and therefore the angular momentum is conserved.

This means that the angular momentum before and after the collision changes.

Initial instant. Before the crash

        L₀ = I₀ w₀

Final moment. Right after the crash

        L_f = (I₀ + mr²) w

we treat the clay sphere as a point particle

how the angular momentum is conserved

       L₀ = L_f

       I₀ w₀ = (I₀ + mr²) w

       w = \frac{I_o}{I_o + m r^2}   w₀

having the angular velocities we can calculate the kinetic energy

       

starting point. Before the crash

        K₀ = ½ I₀ w₀²

final point. After the crash

        K_f = ½ (I₀ + mr²) w²

sustitute

        K_f = ½ (I₀ + mr²)  ( \frac{I_o}{I_o + m r^2}   w₀)²

        Kf = ½  \frac{I_o^2}{ I_o + m r^2}   w₀²

we look for the relationship between the kinetic energy

        \frac{K_f}{K_o}=   \frac{I_o}{I_o + m r^2}

       \frac{K_f}{K_o } < 1

      K_f < K₀          

we see that the kinetic energy is not constant in the process, this implies that part of the energy is transformed into potential energy during the collision

A disk of radius a has a total charge Q uniformly distributed over its surface. The disk has negligible thickness and lies in th
sleet_krkn [62]

The electric potential V(z) on the z-axis is :  V = (\frac{Q}{a^2} ) [ (a^2 + z^2)^{\frac{1}{2} } -z

The magnitude of the electric field on the z axis is : E = kб 2\pi( 1 - [z / √(z² + a² ) ] )

<u>Given data :</u>

V(z) =2kQ / a²(v(a² + z²) ) -z  

<h3>Determine the electric potential V(z) on the z axis and magnitude of the electric field</h3>

Considering a disk with radius R

Charge = dq

Also the distance from the edge to the point on the z-axis = √ [R² + z²].

The surface charge density of the disk ( б ) = dq / dA

Small element charge dq =  б( 2πR ) dr

dV  \frac{k.dq}{\sqrt{R^2+z^2} } \\\\= \frac{k(\alpha (2\pi R)dR}{\sqrt{R^2+z^2} }  ----- ( 1 )

Integrating equation ( 1 ) over for full radius of a

∫dv = \int\limits^a_o {\frac{k(\alpha (2\pi R)dR)}{\sqrt{R^2+z^2} } } \,

 V = \pi k\alpha [ (a^2+z^2)^\frac{1}{2} -z ]

     = \pi k (\frac{Q}{\pi \alpha ^2})[(a^2 +z^2)^{\frac{1}{2} }  -z ]

Therefore the electric potential V(z) = (\frac{Q}{a^2} ) [ (a^2 + z^2)^{\frac{1}{2} } -z

Also

The magnitude of the electric field on the z axis is : E = kб 2\pi( 1 - [z / √(z² + a² ) ] )

Hence we can conclude that the answers to your question are as listed above.

A very narrow beam of white light is incident at 40.80° onto the top surface of a rectangular block of flint glass 11.6 cm thick
DerKrebs [107]
Dispersion angle = 0.3875 degrees. 
Width at bottom of block = 0.09297 cm 
Thickness of rainbow = 0.07038 cm 
 Snell's law provides the formula that describes the refraction of light. It is:
 n1*sin(θ1) = n2*sin(θ2)
 where
 n1, n2 = indexes of refraction for the different mediums
 Î¸1, θ2 = angle of incident rays as measured from the normal to the surface. 
 Solving for θ2, we get
 n1*sin(θ1) = n2*sin(θ2)
 n1*sin(θ1)/n2 = sin(θ2)
 asin(n1*sin(θ1)/n2) = θ2 
 The index of refraction for air is 1.00029, So let's first calculate the angles of the red and violet rays.
 Red:
 asin(n1*sin(θ1)/n2) = θ2
 asin(1.00029*sin(40.80)/1.641) = θ2
 asin(1.00029*0.653420604/1.641) = θ2
 asin(0.398299876) = θ2
 23.47193844 = θ2 
 Violet:
 asin(n1*sin(θ1)/n2) = θ2
 asin(1.00029*sin(40.80)/1.667) = θ2
 asin(1.00029*0.653420604/1.667) = θ2
 asin(0.39208764) = θ2
 23.08446098 = θ2 
 So the dispersion angle is:
 23.47193844 - 23.08446098 = 0.38747746 degrees. 
 Now to determine the width of the beam at the bottom of the glass block, we need to calculate the difference in the length of the opposite side of two right triangles. Both triangles will have a height of 11.6 cm and one of them will have an angle of 23.47193844 degrees, while the other will have an angle of 23.08446098 degrees. The idea trig function to use will be tangent, where
 tan(θ) = X/11.6
 11.6*tan(θ) = X
 So for Red:
 11.6*tan(θ) = X
 11.6*tan(23.47193844) = X
 11.6*0.434230136 = X
 5.037069579 = X 
 And violet:
 11.6*tan(θ) = X
 11.6*tan(23.08446098) = X
 11.6*0.426215635 = X
 4.944101361 = X 
 So the width as measured from the bottom of the block is: 5.037069579 cm - 4.944101361 cm = 0.092968218 cm 
 The actual width of the beam after it exits the flint glass block will be thinner. The beam will exit at an angle of 40.80 degrees and we need to calculate the length of the sides of a 40.80/49.20/90 right triangle. If you draw the beams, you'll realize that:
 cos(θ) = X/0.092968218
 0.092968218*cos(θ) = X 
 0.092968218*cos(40.80) = X
 0.092968218*0.756995056 = X
 0.070376481 = X 
 So the distance between the red and violet rays is 0.07038 cm.
