A force of F = (2.00ˆi + 3.00ˆj) N is applied to an object that is pivoted about a fixed axle aligned along the z coordinate axi

s. The force is applied at the point r = (4.00ˆi + 5.00ˆj) m.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Force applied to object, F=(2i+3j)\ N

Position, r=(4i+5j)\ m  

(b) The cross product of force and position vector is used to find the net torque about the z axis. It is given by :

\tau=F\times r

\tau=(2i+3j) \times (4i+5j)

\tau=\begin{pmatrix}0&0&-2\end{pmatrix}

or

\tau=(-2k)\ N-m

The torque is acting in -z axis.

(a) The magnitude of torque is given by :

|\tau|=\sqrt{(-2)^2}

|\tau|=2\ N-m

Hence, this is the required solution.

Two parallel plates that are initially uncharged are separated by 1.7 mm, have only air between them, and each have surface area
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

5.63\cdot 10^{-6} C

Explanation:

The capacitor of a parallel-plate capacitor is given by:

C=\epsilon_0 \frac{A}{d}

where

A is the area of each plate

d is the separation between the plates

\epsilon_0 is the vacuum permittivity

The energy stored in a capacitor instead is given by

U=\frac{1}{2}\frac{Q^2}{C}

where

Q is the charge stored in each plate

Substituting the expression we found for C inside the last formula,

U=\frac{1}{2}\frac{Q^2 d}{\epsilon_0 A}

And re-arranging it

Q=\sqrt{\frac{2U\epsilon_0 A}{d}}

Now if we substitute

d=1.7 mm=0.0017 m\\A=16 cm^2 = 16\cdot 10^{-4} m^2\\U = 1.9 J

We find the charge stored on the capacitor:

Q=\sqrt{\frac{2(1.9)(8.85\cdot 10^{-12})(16\cdot 10^{-4})}{0.0017}}=5.63\cdot 10^{-6} C

With a diameter that's 11 times larger than Earth's, _______ is the largest planet.
Svetradugi [14.3K]
With a diameter that's 11 times larger than Earth's, Jupiter is the largest planet.

Jupiter is the biggest planet in the solar system. No wonder ancient astronomers named it after Jupiter, King of the Roman gods. More than 1,000 planets the size of Earth could fit inside Jupiter. A tunnel through Jupiter would be 11 times longer than a tunnel through Earth. A trip around Jupiter equator would take 6 times longer than a trip around the Earth's equator.

What would you do to improve the precision of an experiment?
GenaCL600 [577]

Explanation:

Precision represents that how close the different measurements of the sample one take are to one another.

  • One can increase the precision in lab by paying attention to each and every detail.
  • Usage of the equipment properly and also increasing the sample size.
  • Ensuring that the equipment is calibrated properly. They should be clean and functioning. Using equipment which is not functioning correctly can cause results to swing wildly and also bits of the debris stuck to the equipment can influence the measurements of the mass and the volume.
  • Each measurement must be taken multiple times, especially if experiments in which combining of the substances in specific amounts is involved.
