A student slides a book across a desk, with a velocity of +8 m/s. When her friend catches the book, it has a velocity of +7.4 m/

s. If the acceleration was a constant -5.6 m/s2, how wide is the desk?

kinematic equation

v^2=u^2+2*a*s

7.4^2=8^2-2*5.6^2*width

(7.4^2-64)/(2*5.6^2)=-width

A negative charge is at rest at the origin of an axis system. Location x is at coordinate point (2m,3m) while location y is at (

Sergeu [11.5K]

The magnitude of the E-field decreases as the square of the distance from the charge, just like gravity.

Location ' x ' is √(2² + 3²) = √13 m from the charge.

Location ' y ' is √ [ (-3)² + (-2)² ] = √13 m from the charge.

The magnitude of the E-field is the same at both locations.

The direction is also the same at both locations ... it points toward the origin.

Use this table of a school bus during morning pickups to calculate its average speed between 0 h and 2.340 h.

Gelneren [198K]

The average speed between 0 h and 2.340 h is 6.97 Km/h

Average speed is defined as the total distance travelled divided by the total time taken to cover the distance.

$Average \: speed = \frac{total \: distance}{total \: time} \\ \\$

With the above formula, we can obtain the average speed between 0 h and 2.340 h as illustrated below:

Total time = 2.340 – 0 = 2.340 h
Total distance = 16.3 – 0 = 16.3 Km
Average speed =?

$Average \: speed = \frac{total \: distance}{total \: time} \\ \\Average \: speed = \frac{16.3}{2.340} \\ \\ Average \: speed = 6.97 \: Km/h \\ \\$

When the play button is pressed, a CD accelerates uniformly from rest to 450 rev/min in 3.0 revolutions. If the CD has a radius

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the kinematic equations of angular motion.

Torque from the rotational movement is defined as

$\tau = I\alpha$

where

I = Moment of inertia $\rightarrow \frac{1}{2}mr^2$ For a disk

$\alpha =$ Angular acceleration

The angular acceleration at the same time can be defined as function of angular velocity and angular displacement (Without considering time) through the expression:

$2 \alpha \theta = \omega_f^2-\omega_i^2$

Where

$\omega_{f,i} =$ Final and Initial Angular velocity

$\alpha =$ Angular acceleration

$\theta =$ Angular displacement

Our values are given as

$\omega_i = 0 rad/s$

$\omega_f = 450rev/min (\frac{1min}{60s})(\frac{2\pi rad}{1rev})$

$\omega_f = 47.12rad/s$

$\theta = 3 rev (\frac{2\pi rad}{1rev}) \rightarrow 6\pi rad$

$r = 7cm = 7*10^{-2}m$

$m = 17g = 17*10^{-3}kg$

Using the expression of angular acceleration we can find the to then find the torque, that is,

$2\alpha\theta=\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2$

$\alpha=\frac{\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2}{2\theta}$

$\alpha = \frac{47.12^2-0^2}{2*6\pi}$

$\alpha = 58.89rad/s^2$

With the expression of the acceleration found it is now necessary to replace it on the torque equation and the respective moment of inertia for the disk, so

$\tau = I\alpha$

$\tau = (\frac{1}{2}mr^2)\alpha$

$\tau = (\frac{1}{2}(17*10^{-3})(7*10^{-2})^2)(58.89)$

$\tau = 0.00245N\cdot m \approx 2.45*10^{-3}N\cdot m$

Therefore the torque exerted on it is $2.45*10^{-3}N\cdot m$
