Answer: Deforestation opens up land for mining and cattle ranching.

Explanation:

The cutting of trees on large in a forest is known as deforestation. Deforestation is done to clear up land for industrial purposes - mining, cattle ranching, to build up homes. Thus, to accommodate the needs of growing population, deforestation is done. This is the best argument in favor of deforestation because otherwise, deforestation affects climate around the globe, leads to soil erosion and causes pollution.

A solid sphere of brass (bulk modulus of 14.0 ✕ 1010 N/m2) with a diameter of 2.20 m is thrown into the ocean. By how much does
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

Diameter decreases by the diameter of 0.0312 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Bulk modulus =  14.0 × 10¹⁰ N/m²

Diameter d = 2.20 m

Depth = 2.40 km

Pressure = ρ g h = 1030 × 9.81 × 2.4 × 1000

               = 24.25 × 10⁶  N/m²

Volume = \dfrac{4}{3} \pi r^3

         \dfrac{\Delta V}{V}=\dfrac{(\Delta r)^3}{r^3}

Bulk modulus is equal to

B = -\dfrac{\Delta P}{\dfrac{\Delta V}{V} }

now

B = -\dfrac{24.25 \times 10^6}{\dfrac{(\Delta r)^3}{r^3} }

B = -\dfrac{24.25 \times 10^6}{\dfrac{(\Delta r)^3}{1.1^3} }

(\Delta r)^3 = \dfrac{24.25 \times 10^6 \times 1.1^3}{14.0 \times 10^{10}}

Δ r = -0.0156 m

change in diameter

Δ d = -2 × 0.0156

Δ d = -0.0312 m

Diameter decreases by the diameter of 0.0312 m.

An infinite line of charge with linear density λ1 = 8.2 μC/m is positioned along the axis of a thick insulating shell of inner r
bixtya [17]

1) Linear charge density of the shell:  -2.6\mu C/m

2)  x-component of the electric field at r = 8.7 cm: 1.16\cdot 10^6 N/C outward

3)  y-component of the electric field at r =8.7 cm: 0

4)  x-component of the electric field at r = 1.15 cm: 1.28\cdot 10^7 N/C outward

5) y-component of the electric field at r = 1.15 cm: 0

Explanation:

1)

The linear charge density of the cylindrical insulating shell can be found  by using

\lambda_2 = \rho A

where

\rho = -567\mu C/m^3 is charge volumetric density

A is the area of the cylindrical shell, which can be written as

A=\pi(b^2-a^2)

where

b=4.7 cm=0.047 m is the outer radius

a=2.7 cm=0.027 m is the inner radius

Therefore, we have :

\lambda_2=\rho \pi (b^2-a^2)=(-567)\pi(0.047^2-0.027^2)=-2.6\mu C/m

 

2)

Here we want to find the x-component of the electric field at a point at a distance of 8.7 cm from the central axis.

The electric field outside the shell is the superposition of the fields produced by the line of charge and the field produced by the shell:

E=E_1+E_2

where:

E_1=\frac{\lambda_1}{2\pi r \epsilon_0}

where

\lambda_1=8.2\mu C/m = 8.2\cdot 10^{-6} C/m is the linear charge density of the wire

r = 8.7 cm = 0.087 m is the distance from the axis

And this field points radially outward, since the charge is positive .

And

E_2=\frac{\lambda_2}{2\pi r \epsilon_0}

where

\lambda_2=-2.6\mu C/m = -2.6\cdot 10^{-6} C/m

And this field points radially inward, because the charge is negative.

Therefore, the net field is

E=\frac{\lambda_1}{2\pi \epsilon_0 r}+\frac{\lambda_2}{2\pi \epsilon_0r}=\frac{1}{2\pi \epsilon_0 r}(\lambda_1 - \lambda_2)=\frac{1}{2\pi (8.85\cdot 10^{-12})(0.087)}(8.2\cdot 10^{-6}-2.6\cdot 10^{-6})=1.16\cdot 10^6 N/C

in the outward direction.

3)

To find the net electric field along the y-direction, we have to sum the y-component of the electric field of the wire and of the shell.

However, we notice that since the wire is infinite, for the element of electric field dE_y produced by a certain amount of charge dq along the wire there exist always another piece of charge dq on the opposite side of the wire that produce an element of electric field -dE_y, equal and opposite to dE_y.

Therefore, this means that the net field produced by the wire along the y-direction is zero at any point.

We can apply the same argument to the cylindrical shell (which is also infinite), and therefore we find that also the field generated by the cylindrical shell has no component along the y-direction. Therefore,

E_y=0

4)

Here we want to find the x-component of the electric field at a point at

r = 1.15 cm

from the central axis.

We notice that in this case, the cylindrical shell does not contribute to the electric field at r = 1.15 cm, because the inner radius of the shell is at 2.7 cm from the axis.

Therefore, the electric field at r = 1.15 cm is only given by the electric field produced by the infinite wire:

E=\frac{\lambda_1}{2\pi \epsilon_0 r}

where:

\lambda_1=8.2\mu C/m = 8.2\cdot 10^{-6} C/m is the linear charge density of the wire

r = 1.15 cm = 0.0115 m is the distance from the axis

This field points radially outward, since the charge is positive . Therefore,

E=\frac{8.2\cdot 10^{-6}}{2\pi (8.85\cdot 10^{-12})(0.0115)}=1.28\cdot 10^7 N/C

5)

For this last part we can use the same argument used in part 4): since the wire is infinite, for the element of electric field dE_y produced by a certain amount of charge dq along the wire there exist always another piece of charge dq on the opposite side of the wire that produce an element of electric field -dE_y, equal and opposite to dE_y.

Therefore, the y-component of the electric field is zero.

. A block of mass 4.0 kg on a spring has displacement as a function of time given by, x (t) = (1.0 cm) cos [(2.0 rad/s) t + 0.25
svlad2 [7]

Answer and Explanation:

1. Evaluate the function x(t) at t=0.5

x(t)=1cos(2t+0.25)\\x(0.5)=cos(2*0.5+0.25)=cos(1+0.25)=cos(1.25)=0.3153223624\approx0.31cm

2. The period of motion T can be calculated as:

T=\frac{2\pi}{\omega}

Where:

\omega=2rad/s

So:

T=\frac{2\pi}{2}=\pi\approx3.14s

3. The angular frequency can be expressed as:

\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }

Solving for k:

k=(\omega)^2*m=(2)^2*4=4*4=16\frac{N}{m}

4. Find the derivate of x(t):

\frac{dx}{dt} =v(t)=-2sin(2t+0.25)

Now, the sine function reach its maximum value at π/2 so:

2t+025=\frac{\pi}{2}

Solving for t:

t=\frac{\frac{\pi}{2} -0.25}{2} =0.6603981634s

Evaluating v(t) for 0.6603981634:

v(0.6603981634)=-2sin(2*0.6603981634+0.25)=-2sin(\frac{\pi}{2} )=-2*1=2

So the maximum speed of the block is:

v(0.6603981634)=2cm/s=0.02m/s

In the negative direction of x-axis

5. The force is given by:

F=kx

The cosine function reach its maximum value at 2π so:

2t+0.25=2\pi

Solving for t:

t=\frac{2\pi-0.25}{2} =3.016592654s

Evaluating x(t) for 3.016592654:

x(3.016592654)=cos(2*3.016592654+0.25)=cos(2\pi)=1cm=0.01m

Therefore the the maximum force on the block is:

F=16*0.01=0.16N

A projectile is fored vertically upward with an initial velocity of 190 m/s. Find the maximum height of the projectile.​
RSB [31]

Answer:

3683.67 m

Explanation:

Formula for maximum height of projectile is given by the equation;

h = u²/2g

Where u is initial velocity and g is acceleration due to gravity

We are given u = 190 m/s

Thus;

h = 190²/9.8

h = 36100/9.8

h = 3683.67 m
