A skateboarder shoots off a ramp with a velocity of 7.1 m/s, directed at an angle of 61° above the horizontal. The end of the ra

mp is 1.4 m above the ground. Let the x axis be parallel to the ground, the y direction be vertically upward, and take as the origin the point on the ground directly below the top of the ramp. (a) How high above the ground is the highest point that the skateboarder reaches?

Answer:

Highest point reached  = 3.37 m

Explanation:

Initial velocity, = 7.1 m/s

Initial vertical velocity = 7.1 sin 61 = 6.21 m/s

Consider the vertical motion of skateboarder,

We have equation of motion, v² = u² + 2as

          Initial velocity, u = 6.21 m/s

          Acceleration, a = -9.81 m/s²

          Final velocity, v = 0 m/s

         Substituting

                       v² = u² + 2as

                       0² = 6.21² + 2 x -9.81 x s

                       s = 1.97 m

So from ramp the position it goes up by 1.97 m

       Highest point reached = 1.97 + 1.4 = 3.37 m

When an object with a negative charge is moved from point A to point B through an external electrical field, it gains electrical
Sergio039 [100]

Explanation:

As per the problem,

           \Delta U = (V_{B} - V_{A})(-q) > 0

When q > 0 then -q is a negative charge . Since, change in potential energy (\Delta U) increases.

or,     (V_{A} - V_{B})q > 0

or,      V_{A} > V_{B}

Therefore, both positive and negative charge will move from V_{A} to V_{B} and as V_{B} < V_{A} so both of them move through a negative potential difference.

Thus, we can conclude that the true statements are as follows.

  • The positively charged object moves through a negative potential difference between A and B (that is, VB - VA < 0).
  • The negatively charged object moves through a negative potential difference between A and B (that is, VB - VA < 0).

A wire is made from a material having a temperature coefficient of resistivity of 0.0003125 (°C^-1). In an experiment, we mainta
beks73 [17]

Answer:

The power decreases by 36%

Explanation:

Given:

At 20° C

Power, P₀ = 300 W

Potential difference, V = 150 volts

Now, power is given as

P = V²/R

where, R is the resistance

on substituting the values, we get

300 = 150²/R₀

or

R₀ = 75 Ω

Now, the variation of resistance with temperature is given as

R = R₀[1 + α(T - T₀)]

where, α is the temperature coefficient of resistivity = 0.0003125 (°C⁻¹)

now, at

T₀ = 20° C

R₀ = 75 Ω

for

T = 1820° C

we have

R = R₀[1 + α(T - T₀)]

substituting the values

we get

R = 75×[1 + 0.0003125 × (1820 - 20)]

or

R = 117.18 Ω

Now using the formula for power

We have,

P = V²/R

or

P = 150²/117.18 = 192 W

Therefore, the percentage change will be

= \frac{P-P_0}{P_0}\times 100

on substituting the values , we get

= \frac{192-300}{300}\times 100

= -36%

here, negative sign depicts the decrease in power

In electronic circuits:______.
trapecia [35]

Answer:

(a), (c) and (e) s correct.

Explanation:

a. the power used by a circuit is the resistance times the current squared.

The power is given by P = I^2 R, so the statement is correct.  

b. electric and magnetic fields are transporting the energy.

false

c. electrons are transporting the energy.

The energy is transferred by flow of electrons. It is correct.  

d. the power used by a circuit is the voltage times the current squared.

The power is given by P  = V I, the statement is wrong.  

e. the power used by a circuit is the current times the voltage.

The power is given by P  = V I, the statement is correct.

PART ONE
stira [4]

Answer:

3.64×10⁸ m

3.34×10⁻³ m/s²

Explanation:

Let's define some variables:

M₁ = mass of the Earth

r₁ = r = distance from the Earth's center

M₂ = mass of the moon

r₂ = d − r = distance from the moon's center

d = distance between the Earth and the moon

When the gravitational fields become equal:

GM₁m / r₁² = GM₂m / r₂²

M₁ / r₁² = M₂ / r₂²

M₁ / r² = M₂ / (d − r)²

M₁ / r² = M₂ / (d² − 2dr + r²)

M₁ (d² − 2dr + r²) = M₂ r²

M₁d² − 2dM₁ r + M₁ r² = M₂ r²

M₁d² − 2dM₁ r + (M₁ − M₂) r² = 0

d² − 2d r + (1 − M₂/M₁) r² = 0

Solving with quadratic formula:

r = [ 2d ± √(4d² − 4 (1 − M₂/M₁) d²) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)

r = [ 2d ± 2d√(1 − (1 − M₂/M₁)) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)

r = [ 2d ± 2d√(1 − 1 + M₂/M₁) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)

r = [ 2d ± 2d√(M₂/M₁) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)

When we plug in the values, we get:

r = 3.64×10⁸ m

If the moon wasn't there, the acceleration due to Earth's gravity would be:

g = GM / r²

g = (6.672×10⁻¹¹ N m²/kg²) (5.98×10²⁴ kg) / (3.64×10⁸ m)²

g = 3.34×10⁻³ m/s²
