If you walk at a pace of 2 miles per hour for 5 hours, you should have walked 10 miles. You would be 2 miles away from your base camp.

Answer:

22 miles (North)        

Explanation:

Given:

velocity = 2 miles per hour (towards North)

Time taken = 5 hours

Displacement in 5 hours = velocity x time

                                        = ( 2 x 5 ) miles

                                        = 10 miles (North wards)

Initial displacement from the base of the camp = 12 miles (North wards)

Thus, location from the base camp after walking for 5 hours is:

12 miles + 10 miles = 22 miles

A parallel-plate vacuum capacitor has 8.60 J of energy stored in it. The separation between the plates is 3.80 mm . If the separ
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

Part a)

E = \frac{8.60}{2.62} = 3.28 J

Part b)

E = 2.62(8.60) = 22.5 J

Explanation:

As we know that the energy of capacitor when it is not connected to potential source is given as

U = \frac{Q^2}{2C}

As we know that initial energy is given as

8.60 = \frac{Q^2}{2C}

now we know that capacitance of parallel plate capacitor is given as

C = \frac{\epsilon_0A}{d}

now the new capacitance when distance is changed from 3.80 mm to 1.45 mm

C' = \frac{Cd}{d'}

C' = \frac{C(3.80)}{1.45}

C' = 2.62 C

Now the new energy of the capacitor is given as

E = \frac{Q^2}{2(2.62C)}

E = \frac{8.60}{2.62} = 3.28 J

Part b)

Now if the voltage difference between the plates of capacitor is given constant

now the energy energy of capacitor is

U = \frac{1}{2}CV^2

8.60 = \frac{1}{2}CV^2

now when capacitance is changed to new value then new energy is given as

E = \frac{1}{2}C'V^2

E = \frac{1}{2}(2.62C)V^2

E = 2.62(8.60) = 22.5 J

What is a cyclotron??<br> What is cyclotron frequency?
timurjin [86]

Answer:

A cyclotron is a type of particle accelerator.

Explanation:

Cyclotron frequency is the frequency of a charged particle moving perpendicular to the direction of a uniform magnetic field B, since that motion is always circular, the cyclotron frequency is given by equality of centripetal force and magnetic Lorentz force.

Assuming that the students worldwide are being considered, because of the extremely large population, this can be considered as a binomial distribution. A normal distribution is used most usually as a fair approximation of the binomial. The mean is the expectation, therefore:<span>

A long wire carrying a 5.0 A current perpendicular to the xy-plane intersects the x-axis at x= - 2.0 cm . A second, parallel wir
mario62 [17]

Answer:

a . 0.35cm

b.  11.33cm

Explanation:

a. Given both currents are in the same direction, the null point lies in between them. Let x be distance of N from first wire, then distance from 2nd wire is 4-x

#For the magnetic fields to be zero,the fields of both wires should be equal and opposite.They are only opposite in between the wires:

\frac{\mu_oi_1}{2\pi x}=\frac{\mu_oi_2}{2\pi(4-x)}\\\\5/x=\frac{3.5}{4-x}\\\\x=2.35cm\\\\N=2.35-2=0.35cm

Hence, for currents in same direction, the point is 0.35cm

b. Given both currents flow in opposite directions, the null point lies on the other side.

#For the magnetic fields to be zero,the fields of both wires should be equal and opposite.They are only opposite in outside the wires:

Let x be distance of N from first wire, then distance from 2nd wire is 4+x:

\frac{\mu_oi_1}{2\pi(4+ x)}=\frac{\mu_oi_2}{2\pi x}\\\\5/(4+x)=\frac{3.5}{x}\\\\x=9.33cm\\\\N=9.33+2=11.33cm

Hence, if currents are in opposite directions the point on x-axis is 11.33cm
