(b) Can the speed of a rocket exceed the exhaust speed of the fuel? Explain.
muminat

<u>Yes. The speed of a rocket can exceed the exhaust speed of the fuel.</u>

How this is explained?

  • The thrust of the rocket does not depend on the relative speed of the gases or the relative speed of the rocket.
  • It depends on conservation of momentum.

What is conservation of momentum?

  • Conservation of momentum, general law of physics according to which the quantity called momentum that characterizes motion never changes in an isolated collection of objects; that is, the total momentum of a system remains constant.
  • Momentum is equal to the mass of an object multiplied by its velocity and is equivalent to the force required to bring the object to a stop in a unit length of time.
  • For any array of several objects, the total momentum is the sum of the individual momenta.
  • There is a peculiarity, however, in that momentum is a vector, involving both the direction and the magnitude of motion, so that the momenta of objects going in opposite directions can cancel to yield an overall sum of zero.

Four charges with equal magnitudes of 10.6 × 10-12 C are placed at the corners of a rectangle. The lengths of the sides of the r
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

Figure a. E_net = 99.518 N/C

Figure b. E_net = 177.151 N / C

Explanation:

Given:

- Attachment for figures missing in the question.

- The dimensions for rectangle are = 7.79 x 3.99 cm

- All four charges have equal magnitude Q = 10.6*10^-12 C

Find:

Find the magnitude of the electric field at the center of the rectangle in Figures a and b.

Solution:

- The Electric field generated by an charged particle Q at a distance r is given by:

                                         E = k*Q / r^2

- Where, k is the coulomb's constant = 8.99 * 10^9

Part a)

- First we see that the charges +Q_1 and +Q_3 produce and electric field equal but opposite in nature. So the sum of Electric fields:

                                 E_1 + E_3 = 0

- For Charges -Q_2 and +Q_4, they are equal in nature but act in the same direction towards the negative charge -Q_2. Hence, the net Electric Field at center of the rectangle can be given as:

                                  E_net = E_2 + E_4

                                  E_2 = E_4

                                  E_net = 2*E = 2*k*Q / r^2

- The distance r from each corner to mid-point of the rectangle is constant. It can be evaluated by Pythagoras Theorem as follows:

                                  r = sqrt ( (7.79/200)^2 + (3.99/200)^2 )

                                  r = sqrt ( 1.9151*10^-3 ) = 0.043762 m

- Plug the values in the E_net expression developed above:

                                  E_net = 2*(8.99*10^9)*(10.6*10^-12) / 1.9151*10^-3

                                 E_net = 99.518 N/C

Part b)

- Similarly for Figure b, for Charges -Q_2 and +Q_4, they are equal in nature but act in the same direction towards the negative charge -Q_2. Also, Charges -Q_1 and +Q_3, they are equal in nature but act in the same direction towards the negative charge -Q_1. These Electric fields are equal in magnitude to what we calculated in part a).

- To find the vector sum of two Electric Fields E_1,3 and E_2,4 we see the horizontal components of each cancels each other out. While the vertical components E_1,3 and E_2,4 are equal in magnitude and direction.

Hence,

                                  E_net = 2*E_part(a)*cos(Q)

- Where, Q is the angle between resultant, vertical in direction, and each of the electric field. We can calculate Q using trigonometry as follows:

                                  Q = arctan ( 3.99 / 7.79 ) = 27.12 degrees.

- Now, compute the net electric field E_net:

                                  E_net = 2*(99.518)*cos(27.12)

                                  E_net = 177.151 N / C
