Let v1, , vk be vectors, and suppose that a point mass of m1, , mk is located at the tip of each vector. The center of mass for

this set of point masses is equal to v = m1v1 + + mkvk m where m = m1 + + mk. Determine the center of mass for the vectors u1 = (−1, 0, 2) (mass 3 kg), u2 = (2, 1, −3) (mass 1 kg), u3 = (0, 4, 3) (mass 2 kg), and u4 = (5, 2, 0) (mass 5 kg).

Answer:

Explanation:

Center of mass is give as

Xcm = (Σmi•xi) / M

Where i= 1,2,3,4.....

M = m1+m2+m3 +....

x is the position of the mass (x, y)

Now,

Given that,

u1 = (−1, 0, 2) (mass 3 kg),

m1 = 3kg and it position x1 = (-1,0,2)

u2 = (2, 1, −3) (mass 1 kg),

m2 = 1kg and it position x2 = (2,1,-3)

u3 = (0, 4, 3) (mass 2 kg),

m3 = 2kg and it position x3 = (0,4,3)

u4 = (5, 2, 0) (mass 5 kg)

m4 = 5kg and it position x4 = (5,2,0)

Now, applying center of mass formula

Xcm = (Σmi•xi) / M

Xcm = (m1•x1+m2•x2+m3•x3+m4•x4) / (m1+m2+m3+m4)

Xcm = [3(-1, 0, 2) +1(2, 1, -3)+2(0, 4, 3)+ 5(5, 2, 0)]/(3 + 1 + 2 + 5)

Xcm = [(-3, 0, 6)+(2, 1, -3)+(0, 8, 6)+(25, 10, 0)] / 11

Xcm = (-3+2+0+25, 0+1+8+10, 6-3+6+0) / 11

Xcm = (24, 19, 9) / 11

Xcm = (2.2, 1.7, 0.8) m

This is the required center of mass

zavuch27 [327]

We will make the comparison between each of the sizes against the known wavelengths.

In the case of the <em>hydrogen atom</em>, we know that this is equivalent to 10^{-10} m on average, which corresponds to the wavelength corresponding to X-rays.

In the case of the <em>Virus</em> we know that it is oscillating in a size of 30nm to 200 nm, so the size of the virus is equivalent to the range of the wavelength of an ultraviolet ray.

In the case of <em>height</em>, it fluctuates in a person around 10 ^ 0 to 10 ^ 1 m, which falls to the wavelength of a radio wave.

How does the speed of an object relate to the energy of the object
Ann [662]

Answer:

Increasing the speed of an object decreases its motion energy. Increasing the speed of an object increases its motion energy. Increasing the speed of an object does not affect its motion energy. Whether or not its motion energy is affected depends on how much its speed was increased.

In Fig. P24.59, each capacitance C1 is 6.9 mF, and each capacitance C2 is 4.6 mF. (a) Compute the equivalent capacitance of the
mrs_skeptik [129]

(a) Equivalent capacitance of network between points a and b is 2.3μF.

(b) Charge on each of the three capacitors nearest a and b is 920 μC.

A) Let's consider the right side that is farthest from the point 'a'.

Three C1 are connected in series

C= 1/C1 + 1/C1 +1/C1 = C1/3

C = 6.9/3 = 2.3μF

Now this C is connected in parallel with C2

So, C= 2.3 + 4.6 = 6.9μF

Again we get three capacitors of 6.9μF each, connected in series.

C = C1/3 = 2.3μF

It again combines with 4.6μF in parallel

C = 4.6 + 2.3 =6.9μF

Now, this final reduction is the same as that of the first.

In the end, we have 3 capacitors of 6.9μF each connected in series.

Equivalent Capacitance C(eq) = C1/3 = 6.9/3 = 2.3μF

         = 2.3 × 10^{-6} F

B) C(eq) = 2.3 × 10^{-6} F

Vab = 400 V (Given)

Charge on each of the three capacitors nearest a and b (Q) =?

Q = C(eq) × Vab

   = 2.3 × 10^{-6} × 400 = 9.2 × 10^{-4} C = 920μC

Hence, the equivalent capacitance of the network between points a and b is 2.3μF.

And Charge on each of the three capacitors nearest a and b is 920 μC.
