A charge of -3.02 μC is fixed in place. From a horizontal distance of 0.0377 m, a particle of mass 9.43 x 10^-3 kg and charge -9

.78 μC is fired with an initial speed of 80.4 m/s directly toward the fixed charge. How far does the particle travel before its speed is zero?

Answer:

d = 0.0306 m

Explanation:

Here we know that for the given system of charge we have no loss of energy as there is no friction force on it

So we will have

U + K = constant

\frac{kq_1q_2}{r_1} + \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2 = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r_2} + \frac{1}{2}mv_2^2

now we know when particle will reach the closest distance then due to electrostatic repulsion the speed will become zero.

So we have

\frac{(9 \times 10^9)(3.02 \mu C)(9.78 \mu C)}{0.0377} + \frac{1}{2}(9.43 \times 10^{-3})(80.4)^2 = \frac{(9 \times 10^9)(3.02 \mu C)(9.78 \mu C)}{r} + 0

7.05 + 30.5 = \frac{0.266}{r}

r = 7.08 \times 10^{-3} m

so distance moved by the particle is given as

d = r_1 - r_2

d = 0.0377 - 0.00708

d = 0.0306 m

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The first option,  the walker traveled 360m more than the actual distance between the start and the end points.

Why?

Since each block is 180 m long, we need to calculate the vertical and the horizontal distance, in order to calculate how farther did the travel walk between the start and the end points (displacement).

So, calculating we have:

Traveler:

Distance=NorthCoveredDistance+EastCoveredDistance

Distance=4*180m+3*180m=720m+540m=1260m

Actual distance between the start and the end point (displacement):

ActualDistance=\sqrt{NorthDistance+EastDistance}\\\\ActualDistance=\sqrt{NorthDistance^{2} +EastDistance^{2}}\\\\ActualDistance=\sqrt{(720m)^{2} +(540m)^{2}}\\\\ActualDistance=\sqrt{518400m^{2} +291600m^{2}}\\\\ActualDistance=\sqrt{810000m^{2}}=900m

Now, to calculate how much farter did the traveler walk, we need to use the following equation:

DistanceDifference=WalkerCoveredDistance-ActualDistance\\\\DistanceDifference=1260m-900m=360m

Therefore, we have that distance differnce between the distance covered by the walker and the actual distance is 360m.

Hence, we have that the walker traveled 360m more than the actual distance between the start point and the end point.

Have a nice day!

At the same temperature, two wires made of pure copper have different resistances. The same voltage is applied at the ends of ea
Semmy [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

As we know that the resistance of the wire is directly proportional to the length of wire and inversely proportional to the area of crossection of the wire.

As the material is copper for both the wires so the resistivity is same and the voltage is also same. As their resistance is different it means either length is different or the area of crossection is different.
