Sand drops vertically from a stationary hopper at a constant rate of 100 gram per second onto a horizontal conveyor belt moving

at a constant velocity, ~v, of 10 cm/sec. 1. What force (magnitude and direction relative to the velocity) is required to keep the belt moving at a constant speed of 10 cm/sec? 2. How much work is done by this force in 1.0 second? 3. What is the change in kinetic energy of the conveyor belt in 1.0 second due to the additional sand on it? 4. Should the answers to parts 2. and 3. be the same? Explain.

Answer:

Explanation:

1 )  Force F = dp/ dt , p is momentum

= d/dt (mv)

= v dm/dt

Given dm/dt = 0.1 kg per second.

Force = v x 0.1

= .1 x .1

= .01 N

2 ) work done = force x displacement

Displacement in 1 s = 0. 1 m ( v = .1 m /s )

Work done in one second = .1 X .1

= .01 J

3 ) Velocity is constant so change in kinetic energy is due to additional mass .

Mass deposited in one second

= .1 g

Velocity = .1 m/s

Change in kinetic energy = 1/2 x .1 x .1 ²

= 5 x 10⁻⁴J

4  ) No , they are not the same. It is so because force has to do work against the frictional force offered by the surface on which sand is falling . So rise in kinetic energy is small as compared with  work done by the force.

Answer:

71.19 C

Explanation:

25C = 25 + 273 = 298 K

Applying the ideal gas equation we have

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1} = \frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

where P, V and T are the pressure, volume and temperature of the gas at 1st and 2nd stage, respectively. We can solve for the temperature and the 2nd stage:

T_2 = T_1\frac{P_2V_2}{P_1V_1} = 298\frac{0.77*1.8}{1.2*1} = 298*1.155 = 344.19 K = 344.19 - 273 = 71.19 C

pochemuha
Yes. Acceleration means any change in speed or direction of motion. When an object coasts in a circular orbit at constant speed around the Earth, its direction is constantly changing. The acceleration is "CENTRIPETAL", which points toward the center of the circle.

Three charges lie along the x axis. The positive charge q1 = 15 μC is at x= 2.0 m and the positive charge q2 = 6.0μC is at the o
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

x = 0.775m

Explanation:

Conceptual analysis

In the attached figure we see the locations of the charges. We place the charge q₃ at a distance x from the origin. The forces F₂₃ and F₁₃ are attractive forces because the charges have an opposite sign, and these forces must be equal so that the net force on the charge q₃ is zero.

We apply Coulomb's law to calculate the electrical forces on q₃:

F_{23} = \frac{k*q_{2}*q_{3}}{x^2} (Electric force of q₂ over q₃)

F_{13} = \frac{k*q_{1}*q_{3}}{(2-x)^2} (Electric force of q₁ over q₃)

Known data

q₁ = 15 μC = 15*10⁻⁶ C

q₂ = 6 μC = 6*10⁻⁶ C

Problem development

F₂₃ = F₁₃

\frac{k*q_{2}*q_{3}}{x^2} = \frac{k*q_{1}*q_{3}}{(2-x)^2} (We cancel k and q₃)

\frac{q_2}{x^2}=\frac{q_1}{(2-x)^2}

q₂(2-x)² = q₁x²

6×10⁻⁶(2-x)² = 15×10⁻⁶(x)² (We cancel 10⁻⁶)

6(2-x)² = 15(x)²

6(4-4x+x²) = 15x²

24 - 24x + 6x² = 15x²

9x² + 24x - 24 = 0

The solution of the quadratic equation is:

x₁ = 0.775m

x₂ = -3.44m

x₁ meets the conditions for the forces to cancel in q₃

x₂ does not meet the conditions because the forces would remain in the same direction and would not cancel

The negative charge q₃ must be placed on x = 0.775 so that the net force is equal to zero.
