mars1129 [50]

Complete Question

The complete question is  shown on the first uploaded image  

 

Answer:

The electric field at that point is  E = 7500 \ N/C

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

       The  radius of the inner circle is r_i  =  0.80  \ m

        The  radius of the outer circle is  r_o  =  1.20 \ m

       The  charge on the spherical shell q_n  =  -500nC  = -500*10^{-9} \ C

      The magnitude of the point charge at the center is  q_c =  + 300 nC  =  + 300 * 10^{-9} \ C

        The  position we are considering is  x =  0.60 m  from the center

Generally  the  electric field  at the distance x =  0.60 m  from the center  is mathematically represented as

                 E =  \frac{k *  q_c   }{x^2}

substituting values  

                  E =  \frac{k *  q_c   }{x^2}

where  k is  the coulomb constant with value k = 9*10^{9}  \ kg\cdot m^3\cdot s^{-4} \cdot A^{-2}.

     substituting values

                  E =  \frac{9*10^9  *  300 *10^{-9}}{0.6^2}

                 E = 7500 \ N/C

To test the performance of its tires, a car
velikii [3]

<u>Answer</u>:

The coefficient of  static friction between the tires and the road is 1.987

<u>Explanation</u>:

<u>Given</u>:

Radius of the track, r =  516 m

Tangential Acceleration a_r=  3.89 m/s^2

Speed,v =  32.8 m/s

<u>To Find:</u>

The coefficient of  static friction between the tires and the road = ?

<u>Solution</u>:

The radial Acceleration is given by,

a_{R = \frac{v^2}{r}

a_{R = \frac{(32.8)^2}{516}

a_{R = \frac{(1075.84)}{516}

a_{R = 2.085 m/s^2

Now the total acceleration is

\text{ total acceleration} = \sqrt{\text{(tangential acceleration)}^2 +{\text{(Radial acceleration)}^2

=>= \sqrt{ (a_r)^2+(a_R)^2}

=>\sqrt{ (3.89 )^2+( 2.085)^2}

=>\sqrt{ (15.1321)+(4.347)^2}

=>19.4791 m/s^2

The frictional force on the car will be f = ma------------(1)

And the force due to gravity is W = mg--------------------(2)

Now the coefficient of  static friction is

\mu =\frac{f}{W}

From (1) and (2)

\mu =\frac{ma}{mg}

\mu =\frac{a}{g}

Substituting the values, we get

\mu =\frac{19.4791}{9.8}

\mu =1.987

Why would the planets move in a straight path if there was no gravitational energy from the sun​
omeli [17]

Explanation:

The sun's gravitational force is very strong. If it were not, a planet would move in a straight line out into space. The sun's gravity pulls the planet toward the sun, which changes the straight line of direction into a curve. This keeps the planet moving in an orbit around the sun

A car is traveling at 15 m/sm/s . Part A How fast would the car need to go to double its kinetic energy
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

21.21 m/s

Explanation:

Let KE₁ represent the initial kinetic energy.

Let v₁ represent the initial velocity.

Let KE₂ represent the final kinetic energy.

Let v₂ represent the final velocity.

Next, the data obtained from the question:

Initial velocity (v₁) = 15 m/s

Initial kinetic Energy (KE₁) = E

Final final energy (KE₂) = double the initial kinetic energy = 2E

Final velocity (v₂) =?

Thus, the velocity (v₂) with which the car we travel in order to double it's kinetic energy can be obtained as follow:

KE = ½mv²

NOTE: Mass (m) = constant (since we are considering the same car)

KE₁/v₁² = KE₂/v₂²

E /15² = 2E/v₂²

E/225 = 2E/v₂²

Cross multiply

E × v₂² = 225 × 2E

E × v₂² = 450E

Divide both side by E

v₂² = 450E /E

v₂² = 450

Take the square root of both side.

v₂ = √450

v₂ = 21.21 m/s

Therefore, the car will travel at 21.21 m/s in order to double it's kinetic energy.

One gram of Uranium averages release 1.01 KJ (10^7) of energy. How much mass could be converted to energy to release this much e
frutty [35]

Answer:

The amount of mass that needs to be converted to release that amount of energy is 1.122 X 10^{-7}  kg

Explanation:

From Albert Einstein's Energy equation, we can understand that mass can get converted to energy, using the formula

E= \Delta mc^{2}

where \Delta m = change in mass

c = speed of light = 3 \times 10 ^{8}m/s

Making m the subject of the formula, we can find the change in mass to be

\Delta m = \frac{E}{c^{2}}= \frac{1.01 \times 10^{3} \times 10^{7}}{(3 \times 10^{8})^{2}}= 1.122 \times 10 ^{-7}kg

There fore, the amount of mass that needs to be converted to release that amount of energy is 1.122 X 10 ^-7 kg
