Answer:

d. Imaginary point through which the resultant force of gravity acts on an object

Explanation:

Gravity acting on all particle points of the object, no matter how small they are. As a combination, the center of gravity would denote a single point which  substitutes for all the gravity forces on the object.

A uniform, 4.5 kg, square, solid wooden gate 2.0 mm on each side hangs vertically from a frictionless pivot at the center of its
True [87]

Answer:

The angular velocity is  w = 1.43\  rad/sec

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  mass of wooden gate  is m_g = 4.5 kg

    The  length of side is  L = 2 m

    The mass of the raven is  m_r = 1.2 kg

     The initial speed of the raven is u_r = 5.0m/s

     The final speed of the raven is   v_r = 1.5 m/s

From the law of  conservation of angular momentum we express this question mathematically as

       Total initial angular momentum  of both the Raven and  the Gate =  The Final angular momentum of both the Raven and the Gate  

The initial angular momentum of the Raven is m_r * u_r * \frac{L}{2}

Note: the length is half because the Raven hit the gate at the mid point

The initial angular momentum of the Gate is  zero

Note: This above is the generally formula for angular momentum of  square objects

  The final angular velocity  of the Raven is  m_r * v_r * \frac{L}{2}

   The  final angular velocity of the Gate  is   \frac{1}{3} m_g L^2 w

Substituting this formula

  m_r * u_r * \frac{L}{2}  =   \frac{1}{3} m_g L^2 w + m_r * v_r * \frac{L}{2}

  \frac{1}{3} m_g L^2 w   =    m_r * v_r * \frac{L}{2} -   m_r * u_r * \frac{L}{2}

  \frac{1}{3} m_g L^2 w   =    m_r *  \frac{L}{2} * [u_r - v_r]

Where w is the angular velocity

     Substituting value  

   \frac{1}{3} (4.5)(2)^2  w   =    1.2 *  \frac{2}{2} * [5 - 1.5]

     6w = 4.2

       w = \frac{6}{4.2}

            w = 1.43\  rad/sec

Need help asap I am confused and this is making my brain hurt
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer: The answer is D.

Explanation: Momentum can be defined as mass in motion. All objects have mass so if an object is moving, then it has momentum it has its mass in motion. Momentum depends upon the variables mass and velocity. In terms of an equation, the momentum of an object is equal to the mass of the object times the velocity of the object.

An electron is projected with an initial speed v0 = 1.10 x 10⁶ m/s into the uniform field between the parallel plates. The dista
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

a) E=364N/C

b) No

Explanation:

A) Because the electron is affected by an acceleration force in this case by the electric field, we can use the formulas of 2-dimension movement.

We will assume the electron missed the upper plate, so we need to calculate the time to travel all the way through the plate, that is:

x=v_x*t

where:\\x=distance\\v=speed\\t=time

so:

t=\frac{x}{v_x}=\frac{0.02m}{1.6\cdot 10^6m/s}\\\\t=1.25\cdot10^{-8}

the electron experiences an accelerated motion in the vertical direction, so we can obtain the acceleration of the electron:

y=\frac{1}{2}.a.t^2\\\\where:\\y=vertical\_distance\\a=acceleration\\t=time

so:

a=\frac{2.y}{t^2}\\\\a=\frac{2*(\frac{0.01}{2}m)}{(1.25\cdot10^{-8}s)^2}\\\\a=6.4\cdot10^{13} m/s^2

now we can use the relation:

F=m.a=E.q\\so\\E=\frac{m.a}{q}

where:\\\\E=electric\_field\\m=electron\_mass=9.1\cdot10^{-31}kg\\q=Charge=1.6\cdot10^{-19}\\a=acceleration

Now we can calculate the electric field:

E=\frac{9.1\cdot10^{-31}kg\cdot6.4\cdot10^{13}m/s^2}{1.6\cdot10^{-19}C}\\\\E=364N/C

B) Because the proton has the same charge but positive it will go in the opposite direction, so because we assume the electron didn't touch the plate, the proton won't.

How to find distance when given mass time and force​
Yuri [45]

Answer:

it is actually very easy & interesting. first write formula of force F=Mass×Acceleration . now see what are the unknowns , mass is known but acceleration is not . so find acceleration, a=velocity/time , but now again we dont know velocity, V= distance/time . subbing in all the values, Force=Mass×(distance/time^2)

Hope it helps if you have any problem feel free to ask.
