<h2>The magnitude of the force that acts on a charge of -7.9C at this spot is 2.21 x 10⁶ N.</h2>

Explanation:

Electric field is the ratio of force and charge.

Electric field, E = 280000 N/C

Charge, q = -7.9 C

We have

                 E=\frac{F}{q}\\\\280000=\frac{F}{7.9}\\\\F=280000\times 7.9\\\\F=2.21\times 10^6N

The magnitude of the force that acts on a charge of -7.9C at this spot is 2.21 x 10⁶ N.

Consider the 65 N light fixture supported as in the figure. Find the tension in the supporting wires.
ASHA 777 [7]

By using Lami's theorem formula, the tension in the supporting wires is 48.6 Newtons

TENSION

  • Tension is also a force having Newton as S.I unit.
  • The tension in the wire will be the same.

This question can be solved by using either vector diagram or by using  Lami's theorem.

The sum of two given angles  = 42 + 42 = 84 degrees

The third angle = 180 - 84 = 96 degrees.

Below is the Lami's theorem formula

\frac{T}{sin\alpha } = \frac{T}{sin\beta } = \frac{W}{sinY}

Where

\alpha  = \beta = 42 + 90 = 132 degrees

Y = 96 degrees

W = 65 N

By using the formula, we have

\frac{T}{sin\alpha } =  \frac{W}{sinY}

T/sin 132 = 65/sin96

Cross multiply

T = 0.743 x 65.57

T = 48.56 N

Therefore, the tension in the supporting wires is 48.6 Newtons approximately.

The acceleration of gravity on Mars is about 3.7 meters per second squared. Suppose a rock falls from a tall cliff on Mars. Writ
ratelena [41]

Answer:

The answer to your question is  Equation  vf = gt;  vf = 29.6 m/s

Explanation:

Data

gravity = 3.7 m/s²

vf = ?

time = t = 8 s

Formula

       vf = vo + gt

Initial speed = 0 m/s

To solve this problem we can use the equations of free fall and just substitute the data.

- Substitution

      vf = 0 + (3.7)(8)

- Simplification

      vf = 29.6 m/s

Modern wind turbines are larger than they appear, and despite their apparently lazy motion, the speed of the blades tips can be
Crank

Answer:

(a) v = 65.35 m/s

(b) ac = 82.16 m/s²

Explanation:

Kinematic of the blades of the wind turbine

The blades of the wind turbine describe circular motion and the formulas that apply to this movement are as follows:

v = ω * R   Formula (1)

Where:

v : tangential velocity (m/s)

ω : angular velocity (rad/s)

R : radius of the particle path (m)

The velocity vector is tangent at each point to the trajectory and its direction is that of movement. This implies that the movement has centripetal acceleration (ac):

ac =  ω²* R Formula (1)

ac : centripetal acceleration (m/s²)

Data:

ω=  12 rpm = 12 rev/min

1 rev = 2π rad

1 min = 60 s

ω=  12 rev/min = 12 (2π rad)/(60 s)

ω = 1.257 rad/s

R = 52 m

(a)Tangential velocity at the tip of a blade (v)

We apply the formula (1)

v =  ω* R

v =  ( 1.257)* (52) = 65.35 m/s

(a)  Centripetal acceleration at the tip of a blade (ac)

We apply the formula (2)

ac =  ω²*R

ac =   ( 1.257)²* (52) = 82.16 m/s²
