The direction of his displacement is the arctangent of (9.5/18).

That's tan⁻¹ (0.528) . . . about <em>27.8° north of east</em>.

A satellite at a particular point along an elliptical orbit has a gravitational potential energy of 5100 MJ with respect to Eart
serious [3.7K]

To solve this problem we will apply the theorem given in the conservation of energy, by which we have that it is conserved and that in terms of potential and kinetic energy, in their initial moment they must be equal to the final potential and kinetic energy. This is,

E_{initial} = E_{final}

PE_{initial}+KE_{initial} = PE_{final}+KE_{final}

Replacing the 5100MJ for satellite as initial potential energy, 4200MJ for initial kinetic energy and 5700MJ for final potential energy we have that

KE_{final} = (PE_{initial}+KE_{initial} )-PE_{final}

KE_{final} = (5100+4200)-5700

KE_{final} = 3600MJ

Therefore the final kinetic energy is 3600MJ

A long straight wire carries a conventional current of 0.7 A. What is the approximate magnitude of the magnetic field at a locat
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

2.64 x 10⁻⁶T

Explanation:

The magnitude of the magnetic field produced by a long straight wire carrying current is given by Biot-Savart law as follows: "The magnetic field strength is directly proportional to the current on the wire and inversely proportional to the distance from the wire". This can be written mathematically as;

B = (μ₀ I) / (2π r)                ----------------(i)

B is magnetic field

I is current through the wire

r is the distance from the wire

μ₀  is the magnetic constant = 4π x 10⁻⁷Hm⁻¹

From the question;

I = 0.7A

r = 0.053m

Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;

B =  (4π x 10⁻⁷ x 0.7) / (2π x 0.053)

B = 2.64 x 10⁻⁶T

Therefore the approximate magnitude of the magnetic field at that location is 2.64 x 10⁻⁶T

Which component measures the potential difference across a branch in a circuit? A.switch. B.resistor. C.ammeter. D.voltmeter.
Mademuasel [1]

Answer: The correct answer is option (D).

Explanation:

Voltmeter is a device which measures the the voltage applied across the circuit. It is an electrical instrument used to measure the electric potential between the two points in an electric circuit.

Where as:

A switch is the device which used to connect or disconnect the circuit.

Resistor is a device which opposes the flow of current is an electric circuit.

An ammeter the is an electrical device which measures the amount of current in flowing in amperes in an electrical circuit

Hence,the correct answer is option (D).

A scientist makes a device to catch baseballs. A long bar of total mass 2.2kg and length 1.2m is fixed at its center. It catches
Valentin [98]

Answer:

ωf = 4.53 rad/s

Explanation:

By conservation of the angular momentum:

Ib*ωb = (Ib + Ic)*ωf

Where

Ib is the inertia of the ball

ωb is the initial angular velocity of the ball

Ic is the inertia of the catcher

ωf is the final angular velocity of the system

We need to calculate first Ib, Ic, ωb:

Ib = mb*(L/2)^2=0.15*(1.2/2)^2=0.054 kg.m^2

Ic = mc/12*L^2=2.2/12*1.2^2=0.264 kg.m^2

ωb = Vb / (L/2) = 16 / (1.2/2) = 26.67 m/s

Now, ωf will be:

\omega f = \frac{Ib*\omega b}{Ib + Ic}  = 4.53rad/s
