Answer: Elastic Potential Energy

Explanation: For stretched material such as ropes or strings they have a certain form of energy that allows them to stretch or compress. The energy is called elastic energy. For the case of the string on the bow it possess Elastic Potential Energy since there is no motion in the string.

How far will an object move in 6 s if its average

Dafna11 [192]

Given:-

Time taken by the particle (t) = 6 s
Average speed (v) = 40 m/s

To Find: Distance (s) travelled by the particle.

We know,

s = vt

where,

s = Distance travelled,
v = Speed &
t = Time taken.

Putting the values,

s = (40 m/s)(6 s)

→ s = 240 m ...(Ans.)

A student pulls a 50-newton sled with a force having a magnitude of 15 newtons. What is the magnitude of the force that the sled

Simora [160]

Answer:

Force = 35 N

Explanation:

From Newton's third law of motion, the boy must apply a force greater than the weight of the sled to lift it.

weight of sled = mg

where m is its mass and g the force of gravity on it.

weight of sled = 50 N

Force applied by the boy on the sled = 15 N

Since the force applied on the sled by the boy is lesser than the weight of the sled, then;

Force that the sled exerts on the student = 50 - 15

= 35 N

The force exerted by the sled on the student is 35 N.

Two objects carry initial charges that are q1 and q2, respectively, where |q2| > |q1|. They are located 0.160 m apart and beh

mart [117]

Answer:

$\rm |q_1|=8.0\times 10^{-7}\ C,\ \ \ |q_2| = 4.6\times 10^{-6}\ C.$

Explanation:

According to the Coulomb's law, the magnitude of the electrostatic force between two static point charges $\rm q_1$ and $\rm q_1$ , separated by a distance $\rm r$ , is given by

$\rm F = \dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}.$

where k is the Coulomb's constant.

Initially,

$\rm r = 0.160\ m\\F_i = -1.30\ N.\\\\and \ \ |q_2|>|q_1|.$

The negative sign is taken with force F because the force is attractive.

Therefore, the initial electrostatic force between the charges is given by

$\rm F_i = \dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}.\\-1.30=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{0.160^2}\\\rm\Rightarrow q_2 = \dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{q_1k}\ \ \ ..............\ (1).$

Now, the objects are then brought into contact, so the net charge is shared equally, and then they are returned to their initial positions.

The force is now repulsive, therefore, $\rm F_f = +1.30\ N.$

The new charges on the two objects are

$\rm q_1'=q_2' = \dfrac{q_1+q_2}{2}.$

The new force is given by

$\rm F_f = \dfrac{kq_1'q_2'}{r^2}\\+1.30=\dfrac{k\left (\dfrac{q_1+q_2}{2}\right )\left (\dfrac{q_1+q_2}{2}\right )}{0.160^2}\\\Rightarrow \left (\dfrac{q_1+q_2}{2}\right )^2=\dfrac{+1.30\times 0.160^2}{k}\\(q_1+q_2)^2=\dfrac{4\times 1.30\times 0.160^2}{k}\\q_1^2+q_2^2+2q_1q_2=\dfrac{4\times 1.30\times 0.160^2}{k}\\\\$

Using (1),

$\rm q_1^2+\left ( \dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{q_1k}\right )^2+2\left (\dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{k} \right )=\dfrac{4\times 1.30\times 0.160^2}{k}\\q_1^2+\dfrac 1{q_1^2}\left ( \dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{k}\right )^2-\left (\dfrac{6\times 1.30\times 0.160^2}{k} \right )=0\\q_1^4+\left ( \dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{k}\right )^2-q_1^2\left (\dfrac{6\times 1.30\times 0.160^2}{k} \right )=0$

$\rm q_1^4+\left ( \dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{k}\right )^2-q_1^2\left (\dfrac{6\times 1.30\times 0.160^2}{k} \right )=0\\q_1^4+\left ( \dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{9\times 10^9}\right )^2-q_1^2\left (\dfrac{6\times 1.30\times 0.160^2}{9\times 10^9} \right )=0\\q_1^4-q_1^2\left (\dfrac{6\times 1.30\times 0.160^2}{9\times 10^9} \right )+\left ( \dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{9\times 10^9}\right )^2=0$

$\rm q_1^4-q_1^2\left (2.22\times 10^{-11} \right )+\left ( 1.37\times 10^{-23}\right ) =0\\\Rightarrow q_1^2 = \dfrac{-(-2.22\times 10^{-11})\pm \sqrt{(-2.22\times 10^{-11})^2-4\cdot (1)\cdot (1.37\times 10^{-23})}}{2}\\=1.11\times 10^{-11}\pm 1.046\times 10^{-11}.\\=6.4\times 10^{-13}\ \ \ or\ \ \ 2.156\times 10^{-11}\\\Rightarrow q_1 = \pm 8.00\times 10^{-7}\ C\ \ \ or\ \ \ \pm 4.64\times 10^{-6}\ C.$

Using (1),

When $\rm q_1 = \pm 8.00\times 10^{-7}\ C$ ,

$\rm q_2=\dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{\pm 8.00\times 10^{-7}\times 9\times 10^9}=\mp4.6\times 10^{-6}\ C.$

When $\rm q_1=\pm 4.6\times 10^{-6}\ C$ ,

$\rm q_2=\dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{\pm 4.64\times 10^{-6}\times 9\times 10^9}=\mp7.97\times 10^{-7}\ C\approx 8.0\times 10^{-7}\ C.$

Since, $\rm |q_2|>|q_1|$

Therefore, $\rm |q_1|=8.0\times 10^{-7}\ C,\ \ \ |q_2| = 4.6\times 10^{-6}\ C.$
