IrinaK [193]

Answer:

570 N

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram on the rider. There are three forces: tension force 15° below the horizontal, drag force 30° above the horizontal, and weight downwards.

The rider is moving at constant speed, so acceleration is 0.

Sum of the forces in the x direction:

∑F = ma

F cos 30° - T cos 15° = 0

F = T cos 15° / cos 30°

Sum of the forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

F sin 30° - W - T sin 15° = 0

W = F sin 30° - T sin 15°

Substituting:

W = (T cos 15° / cos 30°) sin 30° - T sin 15°

W = T cos 15° tan 30° - T sin 15°

W = T (cos 15° tan 30° - sin 15°)

Given T = 1900 N:

W = 1900 (cos 15° tan 30° - sin 15°)

W = 570 N

The rider weighs 570 N (which is about the same as 130 lb).

A meter stick is suspended vertically at a pivot point 22 cm from the top end. It is rotated on the pivot until it is horizontal

suter [353]

Answer:

5.82812 rad/s

Explanation:

L = Length of meter stick = 1 m = 100 cm

$m_c$ = The center of mass of the stick = $\frac{L}{2}-0.22=0.5-0.22=0.28\ m$

$\omega$ = Angular velocity

Moment of inertia of the system is given by

$I=I_c+mr^2\\\Rightarrow I=\frac{mL^2}{12}+mr^2\\\Rightarrow I=\frac{m1^2}{12}+m0.28^2\\\Rightarrow I=m(\frac{1}{12}+0.0784)$

As the energy in the system is conserved

$mgh=I\frac{\omega^2}{2}\\\Rightarrow mgh=m(\frac{1}{12}+0.0784)\frac{\omega^2}{2}\\\Rightarrow gh=(\frac{1}{12}+0.0784)\frac{\omega^2}{2}\\\Rightarrow \omega=\sqrt{\frac{2gh}{\frac{1}{12}+0.0784}}\\\Rightarrow \omega=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 9.81\times 0.28}{\frac{1}{12}+0.0784}}\\\Rightarrow \omega=5.82812\ rad/s$

The maximum angular velocity is 5.82812 rad/s

An electron is accelerated by a 3.6 kv potential difference. the charge on an electron is 1.60218 × 10−19 c and its mass is 9.10

katen-ka-za [31]

By definition, the potential energy is:
U = qV
Where,
q: load
V: voltage.
Then, the kinetic energy is:
K = mv ^ 2/2
Where,
m: mass
v: speed.
As the power energy is converted into kinetic energy, we have then:
U = K
Equating equations:
qV = mv ^ 2/2
From here, we clear the speed:
v = root (2qV / m)
Substituting values we have:
v = root ((2 * (1.60218 × 10 ^ -19) * 3600) /9.10939×10^-31))
v = 3.56 × 10 ^ 7 m / s
Then, the centripetal force is:
Fc = Fm
mv ^ 2 / r = qvB
By clearing the magnetic field we have:
B = mv / qr
Substituting values:
B = (9.10939 × 10 ^ -31) * (3.56 × 10 ^ 7) / (1.60218 × 10 ^ -19) * 0.059
B = 3.43 × 10 ^ -3 T
Answer:
A magnetic field that must be experienced by the electron is:
B = 3.43 × 10 ^ -3 T
