The four inner planets share several features in common.

(Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars)

They are called terrestrial planets because they have solid, rocky surfaces roughly similar to desert and mountainous areas on the earth.

Three Major Characteristics of the Inner Planets. The four inner planets -- Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars -- share several features in common. Astronomers call them the “terrestrial planets” because they have solid, rocky surfaces roughly similar to desert and mountainous areas on the earth.

I am trying to find the magnitude of a resultant vector. Do i take inconsideration the negatives when i find the x & y compo

attashe74 [19]

Absolutely ! If you have two vectors with equal magnitudes and opposite
directions, then one of them is the negative of the other. Their correct
vector sum is zero, and that's exactly the magnitude of the resultant vector.

(Think of fifty football players pulling on each end of the rope in a tug-of-war.
Their forces are equal in magnitude but opposite in sign, and the flag that
hangs from the middle of the rope goes nowhere, because the resultant
force on it is zero.)

This gross, messy explanation is completely applicable when you're totaling up
the x-components or the y-components.

In the high jump, the kinetic energy of an athlete is transformed into gravitational potential energy without the aid of a pole.

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

6.0 m/s

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy, the total mechanical energy (potential, PE, + kinetic, KE) of the athlete must be conserved.

Therefore, we can write:

$KE_i+PE_i =KE_f+PE_f$

$\frac{1}{2}mu^2+0=\frac{1}{2}mv^2+mgh$

where:

m is the mass of the athlete

u is the initial speed of the athlete (at the bottom)

0 is the initial potential energy of the athlete (at the bottom)

v = 0.80 m/s is the final speed of the athlete (at the top)

$g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration due to gravity

h = 1.80 m is the final height of the athlete (at the top)

Solving the equation for u, we find the initial speed at which the athlete must jump:

$u=\sqrt{v^2+2gh}=\sqrt{0.80^2+2(9.8)(1.80)}=6.0 m/s$

A small grinding wheel has a moment of inertia of 4.0*10-5kgm2. What net torque must be applied to the wheel for its angular acc

kvv77 [185]

Hi there!

We can use the rotational equivalent of Newton's Second Law:

$\huge\boxed{\Sigma \tau = I \alpha}$

Στ = Net Torque (Nm)

I = Moment of inertia (kgm²)

α = Angular acceleration (rad/sec²)

We can plug in the given values to solve.

$\Sigma \tau = (4 * 10^{-5})(150) = \boxed{0.006 Nm}$

The rotor in a certain electric motor is a flat, rectangular coil with 84 turns of wire and dimensions 2.61 cm by 3.64 cm. The r

ira [324]

Given Information:

Number of turns = N = 84

Area of Rectangular coil = 2.61x3.64 cm = 0.0261x0.0364 m

Magnetic field = B = 0.80 T

Current = I = 10.5 mA = 0.0105 A

Angular speed = ω = 3.54x10³ rev/min

Required Information:

(a) Maximum torque = τmax = ?

(b) Peak output power = Ppeak = ?

(d) Average power = Pavg?

Answer:

(a) Maximum torque = 0.00067 N.m

(b) Peak output power = 0.248 W

(d) Average power = 0.1115 W

Explanation:

(a) The toque τ acting on the rotor is given by,

τ = NIABsin(θ)

Where N is the number of turns, I is the current, A is the area of rectangular coil and B is the magnetic field

A = 0.0261x0.0364

A = 0.00095 m²

The maximum toque τ is achieved when θ = 90°

τmax = NIABsin(90°)

τmax = 84*0.0105*0.00095*0.80*1

τmax = 0.00067 N.m

(b) The peak output power of the motor is given by,

Pmax = τmax*ω

ω = 3.54x10³ x 2π/60

ω = 370.7 rad/sec

Pmax = 0.00067*370.7

Pmax = 0.248 W

W = 2∫NIABωsin(ωt) dt

W = -2NIABcos(ωt)

Evaluating limits,

W = -2NIABcos(π) - (-2NIABcos(0))

W = 2NIAB + 2NIAB

W = 4NIAB

W = 4*84*0.0105*0.00067*0.80

W = 0.00189 J

(d) Average power of the motor is given by

Pavg = W/t

t = 2π/ω

t = 2π/370.7

t = 0.01694 sec

Pavg = W/t

Pavg = 0.00189/0.01694

Pavg = 0.1115 W
