A motorcycle is following a car that is traveling at constant speed on a straight highway. Initially, the car and the motorcycle

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

a) $\Delta{t} = 5.39s$

b) the motorcycle travels 155 m

Explanation:

Let $t_2-t_1 = \Delta{t}$ , then consider the equation of motion for the motorcycle (accelerated) and for the car (non accelerated):

$v_{m2}=v_0+a\Delta{t}\\x+d=(\frac{v_0+v_{m2}}{2} )\Delta{t}\\v_c = v_0 = \frac{x}{\Delta{t}}$

where:

$v_{m2}$ is the speed of the motorcycle at time 2

$v_{c}$ is the velocity of the car (constant)

$v_{0}$ is the velocity of the car and the motorcycle at time 1

d is the distance between the car and the motorcycle at time 1

x is the distance traveled by the car between time 1 and time 2

Solving the system of equations:

$\left[\begin{array}{cc}car&motorcycle\\x=v_0\Delta{t}&x+d=(\frac{v_0+v_{m2}}{2}}) \Delta{t}\end{array}\right]$

$v_0\Delta{t}=\frac{v_0+v_{m2}}{2}\Delta{t}-d \\\frac{v_0+v_{m2}}{2}\Delta{t}-v_0\Delta{t}=d\\(v_0+v_{m2})\Delta{t}-2v_0\Delta{t}=2d\\(v_0+v_0+a\Delta{t})\Delta{t}-2v_0\Delta{t}=2d\\(2v_0+a\Delta{t})\Delta{t}-2v_0\Delta{t}=2d\\a\Delta{t}^2=2d\\\Delta{t}=\sqrt{\frac{2d}{a}}=\sqrt{\frac{2*58}{4}}=\sqrt{29}=5.385s$

For the second part, we need to calculate x+d, so you can use the equation of the car to calculate x:

$x = v_0\Delta{t}= 18\sqrt{29}=96.933m\\then:\\x+d = 154.933$

An electron moving parallel to a uniform electric field increases its speed from 2.0 × 107 m/s to 4.0 × 107 m/s over a distance

jeka94

Answer:

$1.8\times 105 N/C$

Explanation:

We are given that

$u=2\times 10^7 m/s$

$v=4\times 10^7 m/s$

d=1.9 cm= $\frac{1.9}{100}=0.019 m$

Using 1m=100 cm

We have to find the electric field strength.

$v^2-u^2=2as$

Using the formula

$(4\times 10^7)^2-(2\times 10^7)^2=2a(0.019)$

$16\times 10^{14}-4\times 10^{14}=0.038a$

$0.038a=12\times 10^{14}$

$a=\frac{12}{0.038}\times 10^{14}=3.16\times 10^{16}m/s^2$

$q=1.6\times 10^{-19} C$

Mass of electron,m $=9.1\times 10^{-31} kg$

$E=\frac{ma}{q}$

Substitute the values

$E=\frac{9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 3.16\times 10^{16}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}$

$E=1.8\times 105 N/C$

Calculate the Poynting vector at the surface of the filament, associated with the static electric field producing the current an

Vesnalui [34]

We anticipate a constant Poynting vector of magnitude since the hot resistor will be emitting heat and none of the electric or magnetic fields will change over time.

S = P/A

= I2R/ 2πrL

= 332 kW/m2

Always pointing away from the wire, this Poynting vector.

<h3>What is the Poynting vector?</h3>

Describes the size and direction of the energy flow in electromagnetic waves using a Poynting vector. It bears the name of the 1884 invention of English physicist John Henry Poynting. It stands for the electromagnetic field's directional energy flux or power flow. The Poynting vector is significant in a static electromagnetic field because it determines the direction of energy flow in an electromagnetic field. This vector represents the radiation pressure of an electromagnetic wave and points in its direction of propagation.
