A thin insulating rod is bent into a semicircular arc of radius a, and a total electric charge Q is distributed uniformly along

the rod. Calculate the potential at the center of curvature of the arc if the potential is assumed to be zero at infinity.

Answer:

v = \frac{kQ}{a}  

Explanation:

We define the linear density of charge as:

\lambda = \frac{Q}{L}

     Where L is the rod's length, in this case the semicircle's length L = πr

The potential created at the center by an differential element of charge is:

dv = \frac{kdq}{r}

          where k is the coulomb's constant

                     r is the distance from dq to center of the circle

Thus.

v = \int_{}^{}\frac{kdq}{a}  

v = \frac{k}{a}\int_{}^{}dq

v = \frac{kQ}{a}     Potential at the center of the semicircle

The distance in meters she would have moved before she begins to slow down is 11.25 m

<h3>LINEAR MOTION</h3>

A straight line movement is known as linear motion

Given that Ann is driving down a street at 15 m/s. Suddenly a child runs into the street. It takes Ann 0.75 seconds to react and apply the brakes.

To know how many meters will she have moved before she begins to slow down, we need to first list all the given parameters.

  • speed = 15 m/s
  • time t = 0.75 s

From definition of speed,

speed = distance / time

Make distance the subject of the formula

distance = speed x time

distance = 15 x 0.75

distance = 11.25m

Therefore, the distance in meters she would have moved before she begins to slow down is 11.25 m

With what tension must a rope with length 3.00 mm and mass 0.105 kgkg be stretched for transverse waves of frequency 40.0 HzHz t
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

the tension of the rope is 34.95 N

Explanation:

Given;

length of the rope, L = 3 m

mass of the rope, m = 0.105 kg

frequency of the wave, f = 40 Hz

wavelength of the wave, λ = 0.79 m

Let the tension of the rope = T

The speed of the wave is given as;

v = f\lambda = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} } \\\\where;\\\\\mu \ is \ mass \ per \ unit \ length\\\\\mu  = \frac{0.105}{3} = 0.035 \ kg/m\\\\v = f\lambda = 40 \times 0.79 = 31.6 \ m/s\\\\v =  \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} } \\\\v^2 = \frac{T}{\mu} \\\\T = v^2 \mu\\\\T = (31.6^2)(0.035)\\\\T = 34.95 \ N

Therefore, the tension of the rope is 34.95 N

A mass attached to a spring vibrates back and forth. At maximum displacement, the spring force and the
Svetradugi [14.3K]

ANSWER

Velocity of the mass reaches zero

EXPLANATION

We want to identify what hapens to a mass attached toa a spring at maximum displacement.

When a mass attached to a spring is at its maximum position of displacement, the direction of the mass begins to change. This implies that the velocity of the mass will reach zero.

Hence, at maximum displacement, the velocity of the mass reaches zero.

d. The force is doubled and the object’s mass is halved? 18. ||| A man pulling an empty wagon causes it to accelerate at 1.4 m/s
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

a' = 0.35 m/s^2

Explanation:

Let say the empty wagon has mass "M"

now by newton's II Law we will have

F = Ma

now it is given that empty wagon is pulled with acceleration 1.4 m/s/s

now we will have

F = 1.4 M

now a child of mass three times the mass of wagon is sitting on the empty wagon

so here we have

F = (M + 3M) a

1.4 M = 4M a'

so we have

a' = 0.35 m/s^2
