Answer:

Acceleration, $a=6.51\times 10^{10}\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric field, E = 680 N/C

Speed of the proton, v = 1.3 Mm/s

We need to find the acceleration of the proton. We know that the force due to motion is balanced by the electric force as :

$qE=ma$

a and m are the acceleration and mass of the proton.

$a=\dfrac{qE}{m}$

$a=\dfrac{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 680}{1.67\times 10^{-27}}$

$a=6.51\times 10^{10}\ m/s^2$

So, the acceleration of the proton is $a=6.51\times 10^{10}\ m/s^2$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

What type of energy is involved when a river moves sediment and erodes its banks?

ziro4ka [17]

<span>First question: The type of energy involved when a river moves sediment and erodes its banks is: option d. Kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is the energy associated with motion. A body (in this case the water) that moves has an energy associated with its motion that is proportional to the speed (exactly to the square of the speed). When the water collides with the banks it is the kinetic energy of the river that erodes it Second question: the answer is the option d. As gravity pulls water down a slope potential energy changes to knietic energy. This is the, water loses altitude and gains velocity. The potential energy. which is proportional to the height, decreases and the kinetic energy, which is proportional to the square of the speed, increases.</span>

At t=0 a grinding wheel has an angular velocity of 25.0 rad/s. It has a constant angular acceleration of 26.0 rad/s2 until a cir

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

a) The total angle of the grinding wheel is 569.88 radians, b) The grinding wheel stop at t = 12.354 seconds, c) The deceleration experimented by the grinding wheel was 8.780 radians per square second.

Explanation:

Since the grinding wheel accelerates and decelerates at constant rate, motion can be represented by the following kinematic equations:

$\theta = \theta_{o} + \omega_{o}\cdot t + \frac{1}{2}\cdot \alpha \cdot t^{2}$

$\omega = \omega_{o} + \alpha \cdot t$

$\omega^{2} = \omega_{o}^{2} + 2 \cdot \alpha \cdot (\theta-\theta_{o})$

Where:

$\theta_{o}$ , $\theta$ - Initial and final angular position, measured in radians.

$\omega_{o}$ , $\omega$ - Initial and final angular speed, measured in radians per second.

$\alpha$ - Angular acceleration, measured in radians per square second.

$t$ - Time, measured in seconds.

Likewise, the grinding wheel experiments two different regimes:

1) The grinding wheel accelerates during 2.40 seconds.

2) The grinding wheel decelerates until rest is reached.

a) The change in angular position during the Acceleration Stage can be obtained of the following expression:

$\theta - \theta_{o} = \omega_{o}\cdot t + \frac{1}{2}\cdot \alpha \cdot t^{2}$

If $\omega_{o} = 25\,\frac{rad}{s}$ , $t = 2.40\,s$ and $\alpha = 26\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}$ , then:

$\theta-\theta_{o} = \left(25\,\frac{rad}{s} \right)\cdot (2.40\,s) + \frac{1}{2}\cdot \left(26\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (2.40\,s)^{2}$

$\theta-\theta_{o} = 134.88\,rad$

The final angular angular speed can be found by the equation:

$\omega = \omega_{o} + \alpha \cdot t$

If $\omega_{o} = 25\,\frac{rad}{s}$ , $t = 2.40\,s$ and $\alpha = 26\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}$ , then:

$\omega = 25\,\frac{rad}{s} + \left(26\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (2.40\,s)$

$\omega = 87.4\,\frac{rad}{s}$

The total angle that grinding wheel did from t = 0 s and the time it stopped is:

$\Delta \theta = 134.88\,rad + 435\,rad$

$\Delta \theta = 569.88\,rad$

The total angle of the grinding wheel is 569.88 radians.

b) Before finding the instant when the grinding wheel stops, it is needed to find the value of angular deceleration, which can be determined from the following kinematic expression:

$\omega^{2} = \omega_{o}^{2} + 2 \cdot \alpha \cdot (\theta-\theta_{o})$

The angular acceleration is now cleared:

$\alpha = \frac{\omega^{2}-\omega_{o}^{2}}{2\cdot (\theta-\theta_{o})}$

Given that $\omega_{o} = 87.4\,\frac{rad}{s}$ , $\omega = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}$ and $\theta-\theta_{o} = 435\,rad$ , the angular deceleration is:

$\alpha = \frac{ \left(0\,\frac{rad}{s}\right)^{2}-\left(87.4\,\frac{rad}{s} \right)^{2}}{2\cdot \left(435\,rad\right)}$

$\alpha = -8.780\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}$

Now, the time interval of the Deceleration Phase is obtained from this formula:

$\omega = \omega_{o} + \alpha \cdot t$

$t = \frac{\omega - \omega_{o}}{\alpha}$

If $\omega_{o} = 87.4\,\frac{rad}{s}$ , $\omega = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}$ and $\alpha = -8.780\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}$ , the time interval is:

$t = \frac{0\,\frac{rad}{s} - 87.4\,\frac{rad}{s} }{-8.780\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}} }$

$t = 9.954\,s$

The total time needed for the grinding wheel before stopping is:

$t_{T} = 2.40\,s + 9.954\,s$

$t_{T} = 12.354\,s$

The grinding wheel stop at t = 12.354 seconds.

c) The deceleration experimented by the grinding wheel was 8.780 radians per square second.

Resistance ∞ (proportional) length
resistance ∞ 1/ area

therefore,
(the constant that we take is known as the resistivity)

resistance = (resistivity*length )/ area
resistivity = (resistance * area ) / length
= (3 * 45) / 3 = 135/3 = 45 Ωm

in short your answer is 45 Ωm
