Points A (-5,6), B (2,-2), and C (-6,-3) are placed in three different quadrants of a Cartesian coordinate system. Convert each

set of Cartesian coordinates to polar coordinates. The angle should be reported as a positive angle, in degrees, from the positive x-axis. (0° < θ < 360°). What is the θ coordinate for point A? Recall this should be in units of degrees.

Answer: A (\sqrt{61},309.8°)

              B (2\sqrt{2}, 315°)

             C (3\sqrt{5}, 26.56°)

Explanation: To transform rectangular coordinates into polar coordinates use:

r=\sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}} and \theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{y}{x})

For point A:

r=\sqrt{(-5)^{2}+6^{2}}

r=\sqrt{61}

\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{6}{-5})

\theta=tan^{-1}(-1.2)

\theta=-50.2°

Point A is in the II quadrant, so we substract the angle for 360° since it is in degrees:

\theta=360-50.2

\theta= 309.8°

Polar coordinates for point A is (\sqrt{61}, 309.8°)

For point B:

r=\sqrt{2^{2}+(-2)^{2}}

r=\sqrt{8}

r=2\sqrt{2}

\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{-2}{2} )

\theta=tan^{-1}(1)

\theta=-45°

Point B is in IV quadrant, so:

\theta=360-45

\theta= 315°

Polar coordinates for point B is (2\sqrt{2}, 315°)

For point C:

r=\sqrt{(-6)^{2}+(-3)^{2}}

r=\sqrt{45}

r=3\sqrt{5}

\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{-3}{-6} )

\theta=tan^{-1}(0.5)

\theta= 26.56°

Polar coordinates for point C is (3\sqrt{5}, 26.56°)

The centers of two 15.0 kg spheres are separated by 3.00 m. The magnitude of the gravitational force between the two spheres is
kompoz [17]
 we have to use newtons law of gravitation which is
F=GMm/r^2 
G=6.67 x 10^<span>-11N kg^2/m^2
</span>M=<span>(15kg)
</span>m=15 kg
r=(3.0m)^2<span> 
</span>putting values we have 
<span>=(6.67 x 10^-11N kg^2/m^2)(15kg)(15kg)/(3.0m)^2 </span>
=1.67 x 10^-9N

During an adiabatic process an object does 100 J of work and its temperature decreases by 5 K. During another process it does 25
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

The heat capacity for the second process is 15 J/K.

Explanation:

Given that,

Work = 100 J

Change temperature = 5 k

For adiabatic process,

The heat energy always same.

dQ=0

dU=-dW

We need to calculate the number of moles and specific heat

Using formula of heat

dU=nC_{v}dT

nC_{v}=\dfrac{dU}{dT}

Put the value into the formula

nC_{v}=\dfrac{-100}{5}

nC_{v}=-20\ J/K

We need to calculate the heat

Using formula of heat

dQ=nC_{v}(dT_{1})+dW_{1}

Put the value into the formula

dQ=-20\times5+25

dQ=-75\ J

We need to calculate the heat capacity for the second process

Using formula of heat

dQ=nC_{v}(dT_{1})

Put the value into the formula

-75=nC_{v}\times(-5)

nC_{v}=\dfrac{-75}{-5}

nC_{v}=15\ J/K

Hence, The heat capacity for the second process is 15 J/K.
