Answer:

The maximum height Tarzan and Jane can swing as a fraction of her initial heigh is ⅓h

Explanation:

Let

m = Mass of Tarzan

M = Mass of Jane

Given

M = 2m

To calculate the maximum height Tarzan and Jane can swing, we make use of the potential energy at their initial and final position.

Reason being that;

At both the initial and final position, velocity is 0, so there's no kinetic energy.

And the potential energy remains the same (i.e constant) at any given point in the system.

Using P.E = mgh.

At initial position, PE1 = mgh

At final position, PE2 = (m + M)gH.

Where h and H represent the initial and final heights.

m + M is the new weight after Jane and Tarzan swing

Equating PE1 to PE2

mgh = (m + M)gH

By substituton (M = 2m)

mgh = (m + 2m)gH

mgh = 3mgH

Make H the subject of the formula

H = mgh/3mg

H = ⅓h

Hence, the maximum height Tarzan and Jane can swing as a fraction of her initial heigh is ⅓h

From the question, the new height looks to be about ½ that of Jane's original position; i.e. ½h

The calculated height is smaller than what the cartoon is showing;

We can conclude that the cartoon is wrong.

During electrical storms, a bolt of lightning can transfer 10 C of charge in 2.0 µs (the amount of time can vary considerably).

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Explanation:

charge, q = 10 C

time, t = 2 micro second

Current, i = q / t

i = 10 / (2 x 10^-6) = 5 x 10^6 A

(a)

distance, d = 1 m

the formula for the magnetic field is given by

$B = \frac{\mu_{0}}{4\pi}\frac{2i}{d}$

$B = 10^{-7}\frac{2\times 5\times 10^{6}}{1}$

B = 1 Tesla

Now the distance is d' = 1 km = 1000 m

$B' = \frac{\mu_{0}}{4\pi}\frac{2i}{d}$

$B' = 10^{-7}\frac{2\times 5\times 10^{6}}{1000}$

B' = 0.001 Tesla

(b) The magnetic field of earth is Bo = 3 x 10^-5 tesla

B / Bo = 3.3 x 10^4

B'/Bo = 33.3

A square loop of side 7 cm is placed with the nearest side 2 cm from a long wire carrying a current that varies with time at a c

ioda

Answer:

Explanation:

side of the square loop, a = 7 cm

distance of the nearest side from long wire, r = 2 cm = 0.02 m

di/dt = 9 A/s

Integrate on both the sides

$\int _{0}^{i}di =9\int _{0}^{t}dt$

i = 9t

(a) The magnetic field due to the current carrying wire at a distance r is given by

$B = \frac{\mu_{0}i}{2\pi r}$

$B = \frac{\mu_{0}\times 9t}{2\pi r}$

(b)

Magnetic flux,

$\phi=\int B\times a dr$

$\phi=\int \frac{\mu_{0}\times 9t}{2\pi r}\times a dr$

$\phi=\frac{\mu_{0}\times 9t\times a}{2\pi}\times ln\left ( \frac{2 + 7}{2} \right )$

$\phi=\frac{\mu_{0}\times 9t\times 0.07}{2\pi}\times ln(4.5)$

$\phi = 1.89 \times 10^{-7}t$

(c)

R = 3 ohm

$e = -\frac{d\phi}{dt}$

magnitude of voltage is

e = 1.89 x 10^-7 V

induced current, i = e / R = (1.89 x 10^-7) / 3

i = 6.3 x 10^-8 A

A stone is thrown horizontally at 60.0 m/sm/s from the top of a very tall cliff. Calculate its horizontal position and vertical

svp [43]

Answer:

X-Positions: Y-Positions

x(0) = 0 y(0) = 0

x(2) = 120 m y(2) = 19.6 m

x(4) = 240 m y(4) = 78.4 m

x(6) = 360 m y(6) = 176.4 m

x(8) = 480 m y(8) = 313 m

x(10) = 600m y (10) = 490 m

Explanation:

X-Positions

First, we choose to take the horizontal direction as our x-axis, and the positive x-axis as positive.
After being thrown, in the horizontal direction, no external influence acts on the stone, so it will continue in the same direction at the same initial speed of 60. 0 m/s
So, in order to know the horizontal position at any time t, we can apply the definition of average velocity, rearranging terms, as follows:

$x = v_{ox} * t = 60.0 m/s * t(s)$

It can be seen that after 2 s, the displacement will be 120 m, and each 2 seconds, as the speed is constant, the displacement will increase in the same 120 m each time.

Y-Positions

We choose to take the vertical direction as our y-axis, taking the downward direction as our positive axis.
As both axes are perpendicular each other, both movements are independent each other also, so, in the vertical direction, the stone starts from rest.
At any moment, it is subject to the acceleration of gravity, g.
As the acceleration is constant, we can find the vertical displacement (taking the height of the cliff as the initial reference level), using the following kinematic equation:

$y = \frac{1}{2} * g* t^{2} = \frac{1}{2} * 9.8 m/s2 * t(s)^{2}$

Replacing by the values of t, we get the following vertical positions, from the height of the cliff as y = 0:
y(2) = 2* 9.8 m/s2 = 19.6 m
y(4) = 8* 9.8 m/s2 = 78.4 m
y(6) = 18*9.8 m/s2 = 176.4 m
y(8) = 32*9.8 m/s2 = 313.6 m
y(10)= 50 * 9.8 m/s2 = 490.0 m
