Answer:

The horizontal component of the velocity is 188 m/s

The vertical component of the velocity is 50 m/s.

Explanation:

Hi there!

Please, see the figure for a graphic description of the problem. Notice that the x-component of the vector velocity (vx), the y-component (vy) and the vector velocity form a right triangle. Then, we can use trigonometry to obtain the magnitude of vx and vy:

We can find vx using the following trigonometric rule of a right triangle:

cos α = adjacent / hypotenuse

cos 15° = vx / 195 m/s

195 m/s · cos 15° = vx

vx = 188 m/s

The horizontal component of the velocity is 188 m/s

To calculate the y-component we will use the following trigonometric rule:

sin α = opposite / hypotenuse

sin 15° = vy / 195 m/s

195 m/s · sin 15° = vy

vy = 50 m/s

The vertical component of the velocity is 50 m/s.

The concept of power is given by the relationship between intensity and area, that is to say that power is defined as

P = A*I

Our values are given under the condition of,

r_1 = 18m

r_2 = m

The power is proportional to the Area, and in turn, we know that the Area of a circle is the product between \pi  times the radius squared, therefore the power is proportional to the radius squared.

\text{Power} \propto r^2

For both panels we would have to

\frac{\text{Power by panel 1}}{\text{Power by panel 2}} = \frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2}

\frac{P_1}{P_2} = (\frac{18}{6})^2

\frac{P_1}{P_2} = 9

Therefore the correct option is option C.9

Two positive point charges, each of which has a charge of 2.5 × 10−9 C, are located at y = + 0.50m and y = − 0.50m. Find the mag
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

F = 147,78*10⁻⁹ [N]

Explanation:

By symmetry the Fy components of the forces acting on charge in point x = 0,7 m canceled each other, and the total force will be twice Fx ( Fx is x axis component of one of the forces .

The angle β  ( angle between the line running through one of the charges in y axis and the charge in x axis) is

tan β  =  0,5/0,7

tan β  = 0,7142    then   β = arctan 0,7142      ⇒   β = 35 ⁰

cos  β = 0,81

d = √ (0,5)²  +  (0,7)²       d1stance between charges

d = √0,25 + 0,49

d =  √0,74  m

d = 0,86  m

Now Foce between two charges  is:

F  = K* q₁*q₂/ d²      (1)

Where  K  = 9*10⁹ N*m²/C²

q₁  =  2,5* 10⁻⁹C

q₂  = 3,0*10⁻⁹C

d²  = 0,74 m²

Plugging these values in (1)

F  =  9*10⁹* 2,5* 10⁻⁹*3,0*10⁻⁹ / 0,74       [N*m²/C²]*C*C/m²

F = 91,21 * 10⁻⁹   [N]

And  Fx  =  F*cos  β

Fx  =  91,21 * 10⁻⁹ *0,81

Fx =73,89*10⁻⁹  [N]

Then total force acting on charge located at x = 0,7 m is:

F = 2* Fx

F = 2*73,89*10⁻⁹  [N]

F = 147,78*10⁻⁹ [N]
