A truck is moving around a circular curve at a uniform velocity of 13 m/s. If the centripetal force on the truck is 3300 N and t

Well, first of all, the truck's velocity is constantly changing, not 'uniform'.
Velocity consists of speed and direction.  So, even if the truck's speed is
constant, its direction keeps changing as long as it's on a circular curve,
so its velocity is constantly changing.

The force needed to keep a mass moving in a circle is

                                 F = (mass) x (speed)² / (radius)
                      
                             3300 N  =  (1600 kg) (13 m/s)² / R

                           3300 kg-m/s²  =  (1600 kg) (169 m²/s²) / R

                           R  =  (1600 kg) · (169 m²/s²) / (3300 kg·m/s²)

                               =  (1600 · 169 / 3300)  meters

                               =        81.9  meters

MrMuchimi

Answer:

Explanation:

The diagram has a fairly simple explanation. In the top diagram, the space between the particle is increasing. That means that acceleration is increasing. The bottom diagram shows just the opposite. The particle starts off making large "distances" between where the particle is recorded and then the distances between recordings lessens and the particle is slowing down.

Rule: the greater the "distance" between dot positions, the greater the acceleration, because the speed is large.

Top diagram: increasing distance between dots = larger speed. The distance becomes greater as the particle moves to the right.

Bottom diagram: starts off large and decreases as we move from left to right  = - acceleration.

ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) Direction of the magnetic field will be in positive x direction.

The direction of the vector E X B gives the direction of motion of wave.

b ) Magnitude of magnetic field is given by the relation

E₀ / B₀ = c , c is velocity of light

B₀ = E₀ / c

= 20 / (3 x 10⁸)

= 6.67 x 10⁻⁸ T

c ) Average power flowing per unit area by this wave is called Poynting vector

c ε₀E₀² , ε₀ = 8.85X10⁻¹²

= 3 X 10⁸ X 8.85 X 10⁻¹² X 20²

= 1.062 W m⁻²
