Consider two identical objects of mass m = 0.250 kg and charge q = 4.00 μC. The first charge is held in place at the origin of a

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

a = 640 m/s²

Explanation:

From work-kinetic energy principles,

The net force acting on the second object is the gravitational force and the electric force due to the first object.

So, the gravitational force on the mass is F₁ = Gm₁m₂/r² since m₁ = m₂ = m, U = -Gm²/r²

Also, the electric force on the charge is F₂ = kq₁q₂/r² since q₁ = q₂ = q, U = kq²/r²

The net Force F = ma

So, -F₁ + F₂ = F (F₁ is negative since it is an attractive force in the negative x -direction and F₂ is positive since it is a repulsive force in the positive x- direction)

-Gm²/r² + kq²/r² = ma

ma = -Gm²/r² + kq²/r²

a = (-Gm²/r² + kq²/r²)/m

a = (-G + kq²/m²)m/r²

Since m = 0.250 kg, q = 4.00 μC = 4.00 × 10⁻⁶ C, r = 3.00 cm = 3.00 × 10⁻² m, G = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg², k = 9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C² and a = acceleration of second mass.

Substituting the variables into the equation, we have

a = (m/r²)(-G + k(q/m)²)]

a = (0.250 kg/{3.00 × 10⁻² m}²)(-6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg² + 9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C²(4.00 × 10⁻⁶ C/0.250 kg)²)

a = (0.250 kg/9.00 × 10⁻⁴ m)(-6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg² + 9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C²(16 × 10⁻⁶ C/kg)²)]

a = (0.250 kg/9.00 × 10⁻⁴ m)(-6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg² + 9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C²(256 × 10⁻¹² C²/kg²)]

a = (0.250 kg/9.00 × 10⁻⁴ m)(-6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg² + 2304 × 10⁻³ Nm²/kg² ]

a = (0.250 kg/9.00 × 10⁻⁴ m)(2.304 Nm²/kg²)

a = 0.576 Nm²/kg /9.00 × 10⁻⁴ m²

a = 0.064 × 10⁴N/kg

a = 64 × 10 N/kg)

a = 640 m/s²

Alex73 [517]

Answer:

-4.71 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

y₀ = 1.13 m

y = 0 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = -9.8 m/s²

Find: v

v² = v₀² + 2a (y − y₀)

v² = (0 m/s)² + 2(-9.8 m/s²) (0 m − 1.13 m)

v = -4.71 m/s

An Alaskan rescue plane traveling 41 m/s drops a package of emergency rations from a height of 192 m to a stranded party of expl

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

a)The package strikes 256.2 m in the ground relative to the point directly below where it was released

b) The horizontal component will not change it remains same as 41 m/s

c) Vertical component of velocity = 61.41 m/s

Explanation:

a) Consider the vertical motion of plane,

We have equation of motion, s = ut + 0.5 at²

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

Displacement, s = 192 m

Acceleration, a = 9.81 m/s²

Substituting

s = ut + 0.5 at²

192 = 0 x t + 0.5 x 9.81 x t²

t = 6.26 seconds

Now we need to find horizontal distance traveled in 6.26 seconds by the package.

We have equation of motion, s = ut + 0.5 at²

Initial velocity, u = 41 m/s

Time, t = 6.26 s

Acceleration, a = 0 m/s²

Substituting

s = ut + 0.5 at²

s = 41 x 6.26 + 0.5 x 0 x 6.26²

s = 256.52 m

The package strikes 256.2 m in the ground relative to the point directly below where it was released

b) The horizontal component will not change it remains same as 41 m/s

c) We have equation of motion, v = u+ at

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

Time, t = 6.26 s

Acceleration, a = 9.81 m/s²

Substituting

v = u+ at

v = 0 + 9.81 x 6.26 = 61.41 m/s

Vertical component of velocity = 61.41 m/s
