6. A car is approaching a hill at 30 m/s when its engine is stopped at the bottom of the hill. The car moves up the hill with an

acceleration of - 2 m/s/s. Determine the maximum distance the car travels up the hill.

Answer:

225 m.

Explanation:

Applying the equation of motion.

v² = u²+2as..................... Equation 1

Where v = final velocity of the car, u = initial velocity of the car, a = acceleration of the car, s = distance traveled by the car.

make s the subject if the equation.

s = (v²-u²)/2a.................... Equation 2

Given: v = 0 m/s, u = 30 m/s, a = -2 m/s²

Substitute into equation 2

s = (0²-30²)/(-2×2)

s = -900/-4

s = 225 m.

Hence the maximum distance the car travels up the hill = 225 m.

Two identical conducting spheres, A and B, carry equal charge. They are separated by a distance much larger than their diameters

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

C. $\frac{3F}{8}$

Explanation:

Let initial charges on both spheres be, $q$

$F=\frac{Kq^2}{d^2} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \_i$

When the sphere C is touched by A, the final charges on both will be, $\frac{q}{2}$

#Now, when C is touched by B, the final charges on both of them will be:

$q_c=q_d=\frac{q/2+q}{2}\\\\=\frac{3q}{4}\\$

Now the force between A and B is calculated as:

$F\prime=\frac{k\times\frac{q}{2}\times \frac{3q}{4}}{d^2}\\F\prime=\frac{3F}{8}$

Hence the electrostatic force becomes 3F/8

A wagon is rolling forward on level ground. Friction is negligible. The person sitting in the wagon is holding a rock. The total

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

a)0.48 m/s

b) 0.583 m/s

Explanation:

As the wagon rolls,

momentum'p'= m x v => 95.8 x 0.530 = 50.774 Kgm/s

(a)Rock is thrown forward,

momentum of rock = 0.325 x 15.1 = 4.9075 Kgm/s

Conservation of momentum says momentum of wagon is given by

50.774 - 4.9075 = 45.8665

Therefore, Speed of wagon = 45.8665 / (95.8-0.325) = 0.48 m/s

(b) Rock is thrown backward,

momentum of wagon = 50.774 + 4.9075 = 55.68 Kgm/s

Therefore, speed of wagon = 55.68 / (95.8-0.325) = 0.583 m/s

A proton traveling at 27.1° with respect to the direction of a magnetic field of strength 2.33 mt experiences a magnetic force o

Elan Coil [88]

(a) The magnetic force experienced by a charged particle is:
$F=qvB \sin \theta$
where
q is the charge
v is the velocity of the particle
B is the magnitude of the magnetic field
$\theta$ is the angle between the directions of v and B

The proton in our problem has a charge of $q=1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C$ , and it travels through a magnetic field with strength
$B=2.33 mT=2.33 \cdot 10^{-3} T$
The direction between its velocity and B is $\theta=27.1 ^{\circ}$ , and the force exerted on the proton is $F=6.54 \cdot 10^{-17}N$ . Re-arranging the previous equation and using these data, we can find the value of v:
$v= \frac{F}{qB \sin \theta} = \frac{6.54 \cdot 10^{-17}N}{(1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C)(2.33 \cdot 10^{-3}T)(\sin 27.1^{\circ})}=3.85 \cdot 10^5 m/s$

(b) Using the mass of the proton, $m=1.67 \cdot 10^{-27}kg$ , we find its kinetic energy:
$K= \frac{1}{2} mv^2= \frac{1}{2}(1.67 \cdot 10^{-27} kg)(3.85 \cdot 10^5 m/s)^2=1.24 \cdot 10^{-16} J$

And keeping in mind that $1 eV = 1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}J$ , we can convert this value into electronvolts:
$K= \frac{1.24 \cdot 10^{-16} J}{1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} J/eV}=775 eV$

circuit in Mike’s home is almost at maximum current. If it is a 120 V circuit with about 1/3 of an amp available to safely use,

NikAS [45]

Answer:

40 W

Explanation:

The maximum wattage (power) that Mike can use is given by:

$P=VI$

where

V is the voltage

I is the maximum current

In this problem, we have:

$V=120 V$ is the voltage

$I=\frac{1}{3}A=0.33 A$ is the maximum current available

Therefore, the maximum power that could be used is

$P=VI=(120 V)(0.33 A)=40 W$
