Answer:

The equation for centripetal force is:

T = (mv^2)/r

T = centripetal force

m = mass

v = speed

r = radius

T = [20kg * (20 m/s * 20m/s)] / 20 m

T = [20kg * 400 m/s^2] / 20 m

T = 8,000 kg m/s^2 / 20 m

T = 400 N

Centripetal force = (mass) x (speed)² / (radius)

   = (20 kg) x (20 m/s)² / (20 m)

   = (20 x 20 / 20) (kg-meter/sec²)

   = 20 newtons

A train at a constant 60.0 km/h moves east for 40.0 min, then in a direction 50.0 degrees east of due north for 20.0 min, and th

son4ous [18]

Answer:

Part a)

$v = 7.57 km/h$

Part b)

$\theta = 67.5 degree$ North of East

Explanation:

Speed of train towards East = 60 km/h

displacement towards East is given as

$d_1 = 40 km$

now it turns towards 50 degree East of North

so its distance is given as

$d_2 = 20 km(sin50 \hat i + cos50\hat j)$

$d_2 = 15.3 \hat i + 12.8 \hat j$

then finally it moves towards west for 50 min

$d_3 = -50 \hat i$

Now the total displacement of the train is given as

$d = d_1 + d_2 + d_3$

$d = (40 + 15.3 - 50)\hat i + 12.8 \hat j$

$d = 5.3\hat i + 12.8 \hat j$

now total time duration of the motion is given as

$T = 40 min + 20 min + 50 min$

$T = 1.83 h$

now average velocity is given as

$v_{avg} = \frac{5.3\hat i + 12.8\hat j}{1.83}$

$v_{avg} = 2.89\hat i + 6.99\hat j$

Part a)

magnitude of the average velocity is given as

$v = \sqrt{v_x^2 + v_y^2}$

$v = \sqrt{2.89^2 + 6.99^2}$

$v = 7.57 km/h$

Part b)

Direction of the velocity is given as

$tan\theta = \frac{v_y}{v_x}$

$tan\theta = \frac{6.99}{2.89}$

$\theta = 67.5 degree$ North of East

k0ka [10]

Answer:

$1.54481175\times 10^{-12}\ C$

Explanation:

$\epsilon_0$ = Permittivity of free space = $8.85\times 10^{-12}\ F/m$

A = Area = $6\times 10^{-9}\ m^2$

d = Thickness = $1.6\times 10^{-8}\ m$

k = Dielectric constant = 5.4

V = Voltage = 86.2 mV

Charge is given by

$Q=CV\\\Rightarrow Q=k\epsilon\dfrac{A}{d}V\\\Rightarrow Q=5.4\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\times \dfrac{6\times 10^{-9}}{1.6\times 10^{-8}}\times 86.2\times 10^{-3}\\\Rightarrow Q=1.54481175\times 10^{-12}\ C$

The charge on the outer surface is $1.54481175\times 10^{-12}\ C$
