Answer:

E=\frac{K}{ed}

Explanation:

We are given that

Initial kinetic energy of an electron=K

Distance=d

Final velocity=v=0

Charge,q=-1e

We have to find the magnitude of electric field.

Work done=Force\times displacement

Using the formula

Work done=qE\times d=-eEd

Using work energy theorem

Work done=Final K.E-Initial K.E=0-K

Work done=-K

Substitute the values

-K=-eEd

K=eEd

E=\frac{K}{ed}

Hence, the magnitude of the electric field=E=\frac{K}{ed}

A motorist traveling with a constant speed of 15 m/s (about 34 mi/h) passes a school-crossing corner, where the speed limit is 0
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

(a) 10 s

(b) 30 m/s

(c) 150 m

Explanation:

The motorist's position at time t is:

x = 15t

The officer's position at time t is:

x = ½ (3) t² = 1.5 t²

(a) When they have the same position, the time is:

15t = 1.5 t²

t = 0 or 10 s

(b) The officer's speed is:

v = 3t

v = 30 m/s

(c) The position is:

x = 15t = 150 m

A long. 1.0 kg rope hangs from a support that breaks, causing the rope to fall, if the pull exceeds 43 N. A student team has bui
raketka [301]

Answer:

6.8 m/s2

Explanation:

Let g = 9.8 m/s2. The total weight of both the rope and the mouse-robot is

W = Mg + mg = 1*9.8 + 2*9.8 = 29.4 N

For the rope to fails, the robot must act a force on the rope with an additional magnitude of 43 - 29.4 = 13.6 N. This force is generated by the robot itself when it's pulling itself up at an acceleration of

a = F/m = 13.6 / 2 = 6.8 m/s2

So the minimum magnitude of the acceleration would be 6.8 m/s2 for the rope to fail

A 1,508 kg car rolling on a horizontal surface has a speed of 20.8 km/hr when it strikes a horizontal coiled spring and is broug
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Approximately 1.79 \times 10^{5}\; {\rm N \cdot m^{-1}}, assuming friction between the vehicle and the ground is negligible.

Explanation:

Let m denote the mass of the vehicle. Let v denote the initial velocity of the vehicle. Let k denote the spring constant (needs to be found.) Let x denote the maximum displacement of the spring.

Convert velocity of the vehicle to standard units (meters per second):

\begin{aligned}v &= 20.8\; {\rm km \cdot h^{-1}} \times \frac{1000\; {\rm m}}{1\; {\rm km}} \times \frac{1\; {\rm h}}{3600\; {\rm s}} \\ &\approx 1.908\; {\rm m \cdot s^{-1}}\end{aligned}.

Initial kinetic energy ({\rm KE}) of the vehicle:

\begin{aligned}\frac{1}{2}\, m \, v^{2}\end{aligned}.

When the vehicle is brought to a rest, the elastic potential energy (\text{EPE}) stored in the spring would be:

\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}\, k\, x^{2}.

By the conservation of energy, if the friction between the vehicle and the ground is negligible, the initial \text{KE} of the vehicle should be equal to the {\rm EPE} of the vehicle. In other words:

\begin{aligned}\frac{1}{2}\, m \, v^{2} &= \frac{1}{2}\, k\, x^{2}\end{aligned}.

Rearrange this equation to find an expression for k, the spring constant:

\begin{aligned}k &= \frac{m\, v }{x^{2}}\end{aligned}.

Substitute in the given values m = 1508\; {\rm kg}, v \approx 1.908\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}, and x = 6.87\; {\rm m}:

\begin{aligned}k &= \frac{m\, v }{x^{2}} \\ &\approx \frac{1508\; {\rm kg} \times 1.908\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}}{(6.87\; {\rm m})^{2}} \\ &\approx 1.79 \times 10^{5}\; {\rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-2} \cdot m^{-3}}\\ &\approx 1.79 \times 10^{5}\; {\rm N \cdot m^{-1}}\end{aligned}
