Answer:

a) 50μC

b) 37.45 m/s

Explanation:

a) If the spheres are connected the charge in both spheres tends to be equal. This because is the situation of minimum energy.

Thus, you have:

Q_T=35\mu C+65\mu C=100\mu C\\\\Q_s=\frac{Q_T}{2}=50\mu C

Hence, each sphere has a charge of 50μC.

b) You use the fact that the total work done by the electric force is equal to the change in the kinetic energy of the sphere. Then, you use the following equations:

\Delta W=\Delta K\\\\\int_{0.4}^\infty Fdr=\frac{1}{2}m[v^2-v_o^2]\\\\F=k\frac{Q^2}{r^2}\\\\v_o=0m/s\\\\m=0.08kg\\\\kQ^2\int_{0.4}^{\infty} \frac{dr}{r^2}=kQ^2[-\frac{1}{r}]_{0.4}^{\infty}=\frac{kQ^2}{0.4m}=\frac{(8.98*10^9Nm^2/C^2)(50*10^{-6}C)^2}{0.4m}\\\\kQ^2\int_{0.4}^{\infty} \frac{dr}{r^2}=56.125J

where you have used the Coulomb constant = 8.98*10^9 Nm^2/C^2

Next, you equal the total work to the change in K:

\frac{1}{2}mv^2=56.125J\\\\v=\sqrt{\frac{2(56.125J)}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(56.125J)}{0.08kg}}=37.45\frac{m}{s}

hence, the speed of the spheres is 37.45 m/s

A 225 kg block is pulled by two horizontal forces. The first force is 178 N at a 41.7-degree angle and the second is 259 N at a
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

52.9 N, 364.7 N

Explanation:

First of all, we need to resolve both forces along the x- and y- direction. We have:

- Force A (178 N)

A_x = (178 N)(cos 41.7^{\circ})=132.9 N\\A_y = (178 N)(sin 41.7^{\circ})=118.4 N

- Force B (259 N)

B_x = (259 N)(cos 108^{\circ})=-80.0 N\\B_y = (259 N)(sin 108^{\circ})=246.3 N

So the x- and y- component of the total force acting on the block are:

R_x = A_x + B_x = 132.9 N - 80.0 N =52.9 N\\R_y = A_y + B_y = 118.4 N +246.3 N = 364.7 N

3) The work done is D. zero

4) The kinetic energy is B. 180 J

5) The potential energy is A. 120 J

6) The work done depends on B. position

7) The example of non-renewable energy is C. coal

8) The power expended is 3\cdot 10^4 W

9) The efficiency is A. 100%

10) The velocity ratio is 5

Explanation:

3)

The work done by a force acting an object is given by:

W=Fd cos \theta

where :

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and the displacement

When the force is applied perpendicular to the direction of motion,

\theta=90^{\circ}

Therefore, the work done is:

W=Fd(cos 90^{\circ})=0

4)

The kinetic energy of a body is given by

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m is the mass of the body

v is its speed

For the girl in this problem, we have

m = 40 kg

v = 3 m/s

Therefore her kinetic energy is

K=\frac{1}{2}(40)(3)^2=180 J

5)

The potential energy of an object is given by

PE=mgh

where

m is the mass

g=10 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

h is the heigth of the object relative to the ground

For the ball in this problem,

m = 0.4 kg

h = 30 m

So, the potential energy is

PE=(0.4)(10)(30)=120 J

6)

A conservative field is a field for which the work done by the field on an object does not depend on the path taken, but only on the initial and final position of the object.

Gravitational and electric fields are examples of conservative fields. In fact:

  • When an object is pulled down by gravity (free fall), the work done by the gravitational field only depends on the change in height \Delta h between the two points, not on the path taken during the fall
  • When an electric charge is pushed by the electric field, the work done by the field depends only on the initial and final position of the charge in the field

For any conservative field, it is possible to define a "potential" function, which represents the energy per unit mass/charge, and depends only on the position of the object.

  • Non-renewable energy sources are sources of energy whose rate of consumption is faster than the rate at which they are re-created. Examples of non-renewable sources are coal, oil, natural gas. These energy sources are consumed at a fast rate, while they take million of years to regenerate, so at the current rate they will eventually run out.
  • Renewable energy sources are sources of energy that replenish at faster rate than the rate at which it is consumed. Examples of renewable sources are solar energy, wind, hydroelectric power.

Therefore, the example of non-renewable energy in this case is

C. Coal

8.

For an object pushed by a force F and moving at a constant velocity v, the power expended is given by

P=Fv

where F is the force and v is the velocity.

for the rocket in this problem, we have:

F = 10 N is the force propelling the rocket

v = 3000 m/s is its velocity

Substituting into the equation, we find the power expended:

P=(10)(3000)=30,000 W = 3\cdot 10^4 W

9.

The efficiency of a machine is given by

\eta = \frac{W_{out}}{W_{in}}

where

W_{in} is the energy in input to the machine

W_{out} is the useful work in output from the machine

For a real machine, the useful work in output is always lower than the energy input, because part of the energy is "wasted" and converted into thermal energy due to the presence of internal frictions. However, for an ideal machine, all the input energy is converted into useful work, so

W_{out}=W_{in}

And therefore the efficiency is

\eta=1

which means 100%.

10.

The velocity ratio of a block and tackle system is the ratio between the distance moved by the effort and the distance moved by the load.

VR=\frac{d_{eff}}{d_{load}}

In a block and tackle system, the velocity ratio is also equal to the number of pulleys in the system.

For the system in the problem, there are 5 pulleys: therefore, this means that when the effort moves 5 metres, the load moves 1 metres, therefore the velocity ratio is

VR=\frac{5}{1}=5

You obtain a 100-W light bulb and a 50-W light bulb. Instead of connecting them in the normal way, you devise a circuit that pla
lesantik [10]

Answer:

When they are connected in series

     The  50 W bulb glow more than the 100 W bulb

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The power rating  of the first bulb is P_1  = 100 \ W

      The power rating of the second bulb is  P_2  =  50 \ W

     

Generally the power rating of the first bulb is mathematically represented as

      P_1  =  V^2 R

Where  V is the normal household voltage which is constant for both bulbs

  So  

        R_1  =  \frac{V^2}{P_1 }

substituting values

        R_1  =  \frac{V^2}{100}

Thus the resistance of the second bulb would be evaluated as

       R_2  =  \frac{V^2}{50}

From the above calculation we see that

        R_2  >  R_1

This power rating of the first bulb can also be represented mathematically as  

        P_  1  =  I^2_1  R_1

This power rating of the first bulb can also be represented mathematically as    

       P_  2  =  I^2_2 R_2

Now given that they are connected in series which implies that the same current flow through them so

       I_1^2 =  I_2^2

This means  that

       P \ \alpha  \  R

So  when they are connected in series

     P_2  >  P_1

This means that the 50 W bulb glows more than the 100 \ W bulb

The volume occupied by a sample of gas is 480 mL when the pressure is 115 kPa.What pressure must be applied to the gas to make i
balandron [24]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>84.9 kPa</h2>

Explanation:

Using Boyle's law to find the final pressure

That's

P_1V_1 = P_2V_2

where

P1 is the initial pressure

P2 is the final pressure

V1 is the initial volume

V2 is the final volume

Since we are finding the final pressure

P_2 =  \frac{P_1V_1}{V_2}

From the question

P1 = 115 kPa

V1 = 480 mL

V2 = 650 ml

So we have

P_2 =  \frac{115000 \times 480}{650}  = \frac{55200000}{650}  \\  = 84923.076923...

We have the final answer as

<h3>84.9 kPa</h3>

Hope this helps you
