A fixed particle with charge –8.8 nC and a second particle with charge –4.3 nC, respectively, are initially separated by a dista

nce of 0.11 m. They are released and the second particle moves 0.030 m. A) What is the change in electric potential energy? B) Did the second particle move toward or away from the source charge?

Answer:

(a). The change in electric potential energy is 8.3 μJ.

(b).  The second particle moves away from the source charge.

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge of first particle = -8.8 nC

Charge of second particle = -4.3 nC

Distance = 0.11 m

They are released and the second particle moves 0.030 m,

(a). We need to calculate the change in electric potential energy

Using formula of potential energy

U=\dfrac{Kq_{1}q_{2}}{d}

Change in potential energy

\Delta U=\dfrac{kq_{1}q_{2}}{d_{2}}-\dfrac{Kq_{1}q_{2}}{d_{1}}

Put the value into the formula

U=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times(8.8\times10^{-9}\times4.3\times10^{-9})}{0.030}-\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times(8.8\times10^{-9}\times4.3\times10^{-9})}{0.11}

\Delta U=0.000008256\ J

\Delta U=8.3\ \mu J

(B). We need to find the second particle move toward or away from the source charge

We know that,

Both charges are same, so the second particle will be repul from the source charge.

So, The second particle moves away from the source charge.

Hence, (a). The change in electric potential energy is 8.3 μJ.

(b).  The second particle moves away from the source charge.

A small metal object is tied to the end of a string and whirled round a circular path of radius 30cm. The object makes 20 oscill
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

(i) The angular speed of the small metal object is 25.133 rad/s

(ii) The linear speed of the small metal object is 7.54 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

radius of the circular path, r = 30 cm = 0.3 m

number of revolutions, n = 20

time of motion, t = 5 s

(i) The angular speed of the small metal object is calculated as;

\omega = \frac{20 \ rev}{5 \ s} \times \frac{2 \pi \ rad}{1 \ rev} = \frac{40\pi \ rad}{5 \ s} = 8\pi \ rad/s = 25.133 \ rad/s

(ii) The linear speed of the small metal object is calculated as;

v = \omega r\\\\v = 25.133 \ rad/s \ \times \ 0.3 \ m\\\\v = 7.54 \ m/s
