Energy cannot be created or destroyed it can only be transformed into a different kind of energy work or power.

If this is the case, then the energy likely left the system through external forces or heat dissipated into the environment.

A horizontal desk surface measures 1.7 m by 1.0 m. If the Earth's magnetic field has magnitude 0.42 mT and is directed 68° below

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

The magnetic flux through the desk surface is $6.6\times10^{-4}\ T-m^2$ .

Explanation:

Given that,

Magnetic field B = 0.42 T

Angle =68°

We need to calculate the magnetic flux

$\phi=BA\costheta$

Where, B = magnetic field

A = area

Put the value into the formula

$\phi=0.42\times10^{-3}\times1.7\times1.0\cos22^{\circ}$

$\phi=0.42\times10^{-3}\times1.7\times1.0\times0.927$

$\phi=6.6\times10^{-4}\ T-m^2$

Hence, The magnetic flux through the desk surface is $6.6\times10^{-4}\ T-m^2$ .

A 1kg box is pushed on a flat surface that is 250m long. The box is initially at rest and then pushed with a constant Net force

sasho [114]

Answer:

C) 50 m/s

Explanation:

With the given information we can calculate the acceleration using the force and mass of the box.

Newton's 2nd Law: F = ma

5 N = 1 kg * a
a = 5 m/s²

List out known variables:

v₀ = 0 m/s
a = 5 m/s²
v = ?
Δx = 250 m

Looking at the constant acceleration kinematic equations, we see that this one contains all four variables:

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

Substitute known values into the equation and solve for v.

v² = (0)² + 2(5)(250)
v² = 2500
v = 50 m/s

The final velocity of the box is C) 50 m/s.

To travel at constant speed, a car engine provides 24KW of useful power. The driving force on the car is 600N. At what speed doe

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

The speed traveled by the car is 40 meter per second.

Explanation:

The formula for the relation between the power and the force is as follows:

P = Fv

Where F is the force and v is the speed.

As given

To travel at constant speed, a car engine provides 24KW of useful power. The driving force on the car is 600N.

F = 600 N

Convert power from KW to W.

1 KW = 1000 W

24 KW = 24 × 1000 W

= 24000 W

Thus

P = 24000 W

Put these values in the formula.

24000 = 600 × v

24000 = 600v

$v = \frac{24000}{600}$

v = 40 meter per second .

Therefore the speed of the car is 40 meter per second .

In Millikan's experiment, an oil drop of radius 1.362 μm and density 0.888 g/cm3 is suspended in chamber C when a downward-point

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

The charge on the oil drop is 3e

Explanation:

F = qE

Where;

F is the applied force in Newton

E is the electric field potential N/C

q is charge in C

Given;

Radius, r = 1.362 μm = 1.362 X 10⁻⁶ m

density, ρ = 0.888 g/cm³ = 0.888 X 10³ kg/m³

Electric field potential = 1.92 ✕ 10⁵ N/C

F =mg

mass of the oil drop = density, ρ X volume of the oil drop

volume of the oil drop (spherical) = (4/3)πr³ = 1.3333π(1.362 X 10⁻⁶)³

⇒ volume of the oil drop = 10.584 X 10⁻¹⁸ m³

mass of the oil drop = 0.888 X 10³ (kg/m³) X 10.584 X 10⁻¹⁸ (m³)

⇒ mass of the oil drop = 9.399 X 10⁻¹⁵ kg

⇒ F =mg = 9.399 X 10⁻¹⁵ kg X 9.8 = 9.21 X10⁻¹⁴ N

F = qE

q = F/E

q = (9.21 X10⁻¹⁴)/(1.92 ✕ 10⁵) = 4.797 X 10⁻¹⁹ C

In terms of e

1e = 1.6 X10⁻¹⁹ C

= (4.797 X 10⁻¹⁹ C)/(1.6 X10⁻¹⁹ C) = 3e

Therefore, the charge on the oil drop is 3e
