The current through a 0.2-H inductor is i(t) = 10te–5t A. What is the energy stored in the inductor?

lakkis [162]

Answer:

E = 10t^2e^-10t Joules

Explanation:

Given that the current through a 0.2-H inductor is i(t) = 10te–5t A.

The energy E stored in the inductor can be expressed as

E = 1/2Ll^2

Substitutes the inductor L and the current I into the formula

E = 1/2 × 0.2 × ( 10te^-5t )^2

E = 0.1 × 100t^2e^-10t

E = 10t^2e^-10t Joules

Therefore, the energy stored in the inductor is 10t^2e^-10t Joules

The constant forces F1 = 8 + 29 + 32 N and F2 = 48 - 59 - 22 N act together on a particle during a displacement from the point A

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

- 600 J

Explanation:

A (20, 15, 0 ) m

B (0, 0, 7) m

$\overrightarrow{F_{1}}=8\widehat{i}+29\widehat{j}+32\widehat{k}$

$\overrightarrow{F_{2}}=48\widehat{i}-59\widehat{j}-22\widehat{k}$

Net force

$\overrightarrow{F}=\overrightarrow{F_{1}}+\overrightarrow{F_{2}}$

$\overrightarrow{F}}=\left ( 8+48 \right )\widehat{i}+\left ( 29-59 \right )\widehat{j}+\left ( 32-22 \right )\widehat{k}$

$\overrightarrow{F}}=56\widehat{i}-30\widehat{j}+10\widehat{k}$

$\overrightarrow{S}=\overrightarrow{OB}-\overrightarrow{OA}$

$\overrightarrow{S}=\left ( 0-20 \right )\widehat{i}+\left ( 0-15 \right )\widehat{j}+\left ( 7-0 \right )\widehat{k}$

$\overrightarrow{S}=-20\widehat{i}-15\widehat{j}+7\widehat{k}$

Work done is defined as

$W = \overrightarrow{F}.\overrightarrow{S}$

$W = \left ( 56\widehat{i}-30\widehat{j}+10\widehat{k} \right ).\left (-20\widehat{i}-15\widehat{j}+7\widehat{k} \right )$

W = -1120 + 450 + 70

W = - 600 J
