How does Newton's three laws of motion apply to the egg drop project

2 answers:

6 0

Answer:
Newton's third law, which states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction, can be related to an egg drop because the forces pushing the egg up and down must follow the law.

Explanation:
Newton's third law states that for each action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
An egg by itself will splat against the concrete if dropped from a height. The point of an egg drop is to keep this from happening. In other words, you must make sure that the downward force of gravity has an opposite force, great enough to slow the egg down enough to make sure it doesn't break.
If you tie a parachute to save the egg, air drag pushes the parachute up, but the force of gravity on the egg pushes it down still. However, the air drag works opposite gravity and slows the egg's descent enough to ensure it doesn't break on impact.

<span> Newtons First Law is applied on my egg experiment because it will not move or change it's acceleration until a force acts upon it. Newton's Second Law is applied because of the acceleration caused by natural forces as the egg is plummeting to the earth. And the amount of acceleration the egg has will be largely affected by the amount of force used to hurl the egg to the ground. The Third Law of Motion affects the egg because the amount of force the egg hits the ground with, the ground pushes back with equal and opposite force.</span>

The electric field in a region is uniform (constant in space) and given by E-( 148.0 1 -110.03)N/C. An additional charge 10.4 nC

enyata [817]

Answer:

The y-component of the electric force on this charge is $F_y = -1.144\times 10^{-6}\ N.$

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

Electric field in the region, $\vec E = (148.0\ \hat i-110.0\ \hat j)\ N/C.$
Charge placed into the region, $q = 10.4\ nC = 10.4\times 10^{-9}\ C.$

where, $\hat i,\ \hat j$ are the unit vectors along the positive x and y axes respectively.

The electric field at a point is defined as the electrostatic force experienced per unit positive test charge, placed at that point, such that,

$\vec E = \dfrac{\vec F}{q}\\\therefore \vec F = q\vec E\\=(10.4\times 10^{-9})\times (148.0\ \hat i-110.0\ \hat j)\\=(1.539\times 10^{-6}\ \hat i-1.144\times 10^{-6}\ \hat j)\ N.$

Thus, the y-component of the electric force on this charge is $F_y = -1.144\times 10^{-6}\ N.$

A long metal cylinder with radius a is supported on an insulating stand on the axis of a long, hollow, metal tube with radius b.

bija089 [108]

i) Potential for r < a: $V(r)=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} ln(\frac{b}{a})$

ii) Potential for a < r < b: $V(r)=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} ln\frac{b}{r}$

iii) Potential for r > b: $V(r)=0$

b) Potential difference between the two cylinders: $V_{ab}=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} ln(\frac{b}{a})$

c) Electric field between the two cylinders: $E=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} \frac{1}{r}$

Explanation:

Here we want to calculate the potential for r < a.

Before calculating the potential, we have to keep in mind that the electric field outside an infinite wire or an infinite cylinder uniformly charged is

$E=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0 r}$

where

$\lambda$ is the linear charge density

r is the distance from the wire/surface of the cylinder

By integration, we find an expression for the electric potential at a distance of r:

$V(r) =\int Edr = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} ln(r)$

Inside the cylinder, however, the electric field is zero, because the charge contained by the Gaussian surface is zero:

$E=0$

So the potential where the electric field is zero is constant:

$V=const.$

iii) We start by evaluating the potential in the region r > b. Here, the net electric field is zero, because the Gaussian surface of radius r here contains a positive charge density $+\lambda$ and an equal negative charge density $-\lambda$ . Therefore, the net charge is zero, so the electric field is zero.

This means that the electric potential is constant, so we can write:

$\Delta V= V(r) - V(b) = 0\\\rightarrow V(r)=V(b)$

However, we know that the potential at b is zero, so

$V(r)=V(b)=0$

ii) The electric field in the region a < r < b instead it is given only by the positive charge $+\lambda$ distributed over the surface of the inner cylinder of radius a, therefore it is

$E=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi r \epsilon_0}$

And so the potential in this region is given by:

$V(r)=\int\limits^b_r {Edr} = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} (ln(b)-ln(r))=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} ln\frac{b}{r}$ (1)

i) Finally, the electric field in the region r < a is zero, because the charge contained in this region is zero (we are inside the surface of the inner cylinder of radius a):

E = 0

This means that the potential in this region remains constant, and it is equal to the potential at the surface of the inner cylinder, so calculated at r = a, which can be calculated by substituting r = a into expression (1):

$V(a)=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} ln(\frac{b}{a})$

And so, for r<a,

$V(r)=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} ln(\frac{b}{a})$

Here we want to calculate the potential difference between the surface of the inner cylinder and the surface of the outer cylinder.

We have:

- Potential at the surface of the inner cylinder:

$V(a)=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} ln(\frac{b}{a})$

- Potential at the surface of the outer cylinder:

$V(b)=0$

Therefore, the potential difference is simply equal to

$V_{ab}=V(a)-V(b)=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} ln(\frac{b}{a})$

Here we want to find the magnitude of the electric field between the two cylinders.

The expression for the electric potential between the cylinders is

$V(r)=\int\limits^b_r {Edr} = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} (ln(b)-ln(r))=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} ln\frac{b}{r}$

The electric field is just the derivative of the electric potential:

$E=-\frac{dV}{dr}$

so we can find it by integrating the expression for the electric potential. We find:

$E=-\frac{d}{dr}(\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} (ln(b)-ln(r))=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0} \frac{1}{r}$

So, this is the expression of the electric field between the two cylinders.

Water (density = 1x10^3 kg/m^3) flows at 15.5 m/s through a pipe with radius 0.040 m. The pipe goes up to the second floor of th

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

The speed of the water flow in the pipe on the second floor is approximately 13.1 meters per second.

Explanation:

By assuming that fluid is incompressible and there are no heat and work interaction through the line of current corresponding to the pipe, we can calculate the speed of the water floor in the pipe on the second floor by Bernoulli's Principle, whose model is:

$P_{1} + \frac{\rho\cdot v_{1}^{2}}{2}+\rho\cdot g\cdot z_{1} = P_{2} + \frac{\rho\cdot v_{2}^{2}}{2}+\rho\cdot g\cdot z_{2}$ (1)

Where:

$P_{1}$ , $P_{2}$ - Pressures of the water on the first and second floors, measured in pascals.

$\rho$ - Density of water, measured in kilograms per cubic meter.

$v_{1}$ , $v_{2}$ - Speed of the water on the first and second floors, measured in meters per second.

$z_{1}$ , $z_{2}$ - Heights of the water on the first and second floors, measured in meters.

Now we clear the final speed of the water flow:

$\frac{\rho\cdot v_{2}^{2}}{2} = P_{1}-P_{2}+\rho \cdot \left[\frac{v_{1}^{2}}{2}+g\cdot (z_{1}-z_{2}) \right]$

$\rho\cdot v_{2}^{2} = 2\cdot (P_{1}-P_{2})+\rho\cdot [v_{1}^{2}+2\cdot g\cdot (z_{1}-z_{2})]$

$v_{2}^{2}= \frac{2\cdot (P_{1}-P_{2})}{\rho}+v_{1}^{2}+2\cdot g\cdot (z_{1}-z_{2})$

$v_{2} = \sqrt{\frac{2\cdot (P_{1}-P_{2})}{\rho}+v_{1}^{2}+2\cdot g\cdot (z_{1}-z_{2}) }$ (2)

If we know that $P_{1}-P_{2} = 0\,Pa$ , $\rho=1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}$ , $v_{1} = 15.5\,\frac{m}{s}$ , $g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ and $z_{1}-z_{2} = -3.5\,m$ , then the speed of the water flow in the pipe on the second floor is:

$v_{2}=\sqrt{\left(15.5\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}+2\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (-3.5\,m)}$

$v_{2} \approx 13.100\,\frac{m}{s}$

The speed of the water flow in the pipe on the second floor is approximately 13.1 meters per second.
