Henrietta is going off to her physics class, jogging down the sidewalk at a speed of 2.70 m/s. Her husband Bruce suddenly realiz

es that she left in such a hurry that she forgot her lunch of bagels, so he runs to the window of their apartment, which is a height 36.5 m above the street level and directly above the sidewalk, to throw them to her. Bruce throws them horizontally at a time 4.00 s after Henrietta has passed below the window, and she catches them on the run. You can ignore air resistance. Wit what initial speed must Bruce throw the bagels so Henrietta can catch them just before they hit the ground? Where is Henrietta when she catches the bagels?

Answer:

The velocity is v  =  6.66 \  m/s

Henrietta is at distance s=  18.17 \  m from the under the window

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The speed of Henrietta is v=  2.70 \ m/s

The height of the window from the ground is h  =  36.5 \  m

Generally the time taken for the lunch to reach the ground assuming it fell directly under the window is

t  =  \sqrt{\frac{2 *  h }{g} }

=> t  =  \sqrt{\frac{2 *  36.5 }{9,8} }

=> t  =  2.73 \  s

Generally the time taken for the lunch to reach Henrietta is mathematically represented as

T =  t +  t_1

Here t_1 is the time duration that elapsed after Henrietta has passed below the window the value is given as 4 s

Now

T = 2.73  +  4

=> T = 6.73 \  s

Generally the distance covered by Henrietta before catching her lunch is

s=  v  *  T

=> s=  2.70  * 6.73

=> s=  18.17 \  m

Generally the speed with which Bruce threw her lunch is mathematically represented as

v  =  \frac{18.17}{2.73}

v  =  6.66 \  m/s

A point charge of -4.28 pC is fixed on the y-axis, 2.79 mm from the origin. What is the electric field produced by this charge a
makkiz [27]

Answer:

E = (-3.61^i+1.02^j) N/C

magnitude E = 3.75N/C

Explanation:

In order to calculate the electric field at the point P, you use the following formula, which takes into account the components of the electric field vector:

\vec{E}=-k\frac{q}{r^2}cos\theta\ \hat{i}+k\frac{q}{r^2}sin\theta\ \hat{j}\\\\\vec{E}=k\frac{q^2}{r}[-cos\theta\ \hat{i}+sin\theta\ \hat{j}]              (1)

Where the minus sign means that the electric field point to the charge.

k: Coulomb's constant = 8.98*10^9Nm^2/C^2

q = -4.28 pC = -4.28*10^-12C

r: distance to the charge from the point P

The point P is at the point (0,9.83mm)

θ: angle between the electric field vector and the x-axis

The angle is calculated as follow:

\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{2.79mm}{9.83mm})=74.15\°

The distance r is:

r=\sqrt{(2.79mm)^2+(9.83mm)^2}=10.21mm=10.21*10^{-3}m

You replace the values of all parameters in the equation (1):

\vec{E}=(8.98*10^9Nm^2/C^2)\frac{4.28*10^{-12}C}{(10.21*10^{-3}m)}[-cos(15.84\°)\hat{i}+sin(15.84\°)\hat{j}]\\\\\vec{E}=(-3.61\hat{i}+1.02\hat{j})\frac{N}{C}\\\\|\vec{E}|=\sqrt{(3.61)^2+(1.02)^2}\frac{N}{C}=3.75\frac{N}{C}

The electric field is E = (-3.61^i+1.02^j) N/C with a a magnitude of 3.75N/C

If you wish to warm 100 kg of water by 20°C for your bath, how much heat is required? (Give your answer in calories and joules.)
taurus [48]
Q = mcθ

Where m = mass of water in kg.
c = specific heat capacity in kJ/kg⁰C, c for water = 4200 kJ/kg⁰C
θ = temperature rise in ⁰C

Q = 100*4200* 20    Note here the temperature rise is 20 ⁰C
Q = 8 400 000 J

In calories,  4.2 J = 1 Calorie
=  8 400 000 / 4.2   = 200 000

Q = 200 000 Calories

A roller coaster speeds up with constant acceleration for 2.3 s until it reaches a velocity of 35 m/s. During this time, the rol
Arada [10]

The initial velocity is 0.65 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the roller coaster is a uniformly accelerated motion, so we can solve the problem by using the following suvat equation:

s=(\frac{u+v}{2})t

where

s is the displacement

u is the initial velocity

v is the final velocity

t is the time

For the roller coaster in this problem:

v = 35 m/s

t = 2.3 s

s = 41 m

Solving the equation for u, we find the initial velocity:

u=\frac{2s}{t}-v=\frac{2(41)}{2.3}-35=0.65 m/s
