Answer:

Explanation: simple kinematics

we suppose that initially vo= 0 so if the skier moves 4s :

vf = vo +at = 0 + 3*4 = 12 m/s

In Example 2.7, we investigated a jet landing on an aircraft carrier. In a later maneuver, the jet comes in for a landing on sol

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

a) 20 seconds

b) No.

Explanation:

t = Time taken for jet to stop

u = Initial velocity = 100 m/s (given in the question)

v = Final velocity = 0 (because the jet will stop at the end)

s = Displacement of the jet (Distance between the moment the jet touches the ground to the point the point it stops)

a = Acceleration = -5.00 m/s² (slowing down, so it is negative)

a) Equation of motion

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{0-100}{-5}\\\Rightarrow t=20\ s$

The time required for the plane to slow down from the moment it touches the ground is 20 seconds.

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=100\times 20+\frac{1}{2}\times -5\times 20^2\\\Rightarrow s=1000\ m$

The distance it requires for the jet to stop is 1000 m so in a small tropical island airport where the runway is 0.800 km long the plane would not be able to land. The runway needs to be atleast 1000 m long here the runway on the island is 1000-800 = 200 m short.

Two point charges, a +45nC charge X and a +12nC charge Y are separated by a distance of 0.5m.

Gnoma [55]

A) Calculate the resultant electric field strength at the midpoint between the charges.

Qx is the charge at X and Qy is the charge at Y.

E at midpoint = k×Qx/0.25² - k×Qy/0.25²

k = 9×10⁹Nm²C⁻², Qx = 45nC, Qy = 12nC

E = 4752N/C

Well done.

B) Calculate the distance from X at which the electric field strength is zero.

Let D be some point between X and Y for which the net E field is 0.

Let d be the distance from X to D.

Set up the following equation:

E at D = k×Qx/d² - k×Qy/(0.5-d)² = 0

Do some algebra to solve for d:

k×Qx/d² = k×Qy/(0.5-d)²

Qx/d² = Qy/(0.5-d)²

Qx(0.5-d)² = Qyd²

(0.5-d)√Qx = d√Qy

0.5√Qx-d√Qx = d√Qy

d(√Qx+√Qy) = 0.5√Qx

d = (0.5√Qx)/(√Qx+√Qy)

Plug in Qx = 45nC, Qy = 12nC

d ≈ 330mm

C) Calculate the magnitude of the electric field strength at the point P on the diagram below.

First determine the angles of the triangle. The sides of the triangle are 0.3m, 0.4m, and 0.5m, so this is a right triangle where the angle between the 0.3m and 0.4m sides is 90°

∠Y = tan⁻¹(0.4/0.3) = 53.13°

∠X = 90-∠Y = 36.87°

Determine the horizontal component of E at P:

Ex = E from Qx × cos(∠X) - E from Qy × cos(∠Y)

Ex = k×Qx/0.4²×cos(36.87°) - k×Qy/0.3²×cos(53.13°)

Ex = 1305N/C

Determine the vertical component of E at P:

Ey = E from Qx × sin(∠X) - E from Qy × sin(∠Y)

Ey = k×Qx/0.4²×sin(36.87°) - k×Qy/0.3²×sin(53.13°)

Ey = 2479N/C

Use the Pythagorean theorem to determine the magnitude of E at P:

E = √(Ex²+Ey²)

E ≈ 2802N/C
