Space scientists have a large test chamber from which all the air can be evacuated and in which they can create a horizontal uni

form electric field. The electric field exerts a constant hor-izontal force on a charged object. A 15 g charged projectile is launched with a speed of 6.0 m/s at an angle 35° above the hori-zontal. It lands 2.9 m in front of the launcher. What is the magni-tude of the electric force on the projectile?

Answer:

Magnitude of electric force = 0.03345 N

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass; m = 15g = 0.015kg

Angle above horizontal; θ = 35°

Speed; v = 6 m/s

Horizontal displacement; d = 2.9m

Now formula for time of flight is given as;

time of flight; t = (2Vsinθ)/g

Thus, plugging in values, we have

t = (2 x 6.0 x sin35)/9.8

t = (12 x 0.5736)/9.8

t = 0.7024 s

Now, let's find the acceleration

The formula for horizontal displacement is given by;

d = (Vcosθ)t + (1/2)at²

Plugging in the relevant values ;

2.9 = [6(cos35) x 0.7024] + (1/2)a(0.7024)²

2.9 = (4.2144 x 0.8192) + (0.2467)a

2.9 = 3.45 + (0.2467)a

(0.2467)a = 2.9 - 3.45

a = -0.55/0.2467

a = -2.23 m/s²

Since we are looking for the magnitude of the electric force, we will take the absolute value of a. Thus, a = 2.23 m/s²

We know that F = ma

Thus,Force = 0.015kg x 2.23m/s² =

= 0.03345 N

Answer:

the magnitude of the electric force on the projectile is 0.0335N

Explanation:

time of flight t = 2·V·sinθ/g

= (2 * 6.0m/s * sin35º) / 9.8m/s²

= 0.702 s

The body travels for this much time and cover horizontal displacement x from the point of lunch

So, use kinematic equation for horizontal motion

horizontal displacement

x = Vcosθ*t + ½at²

2.9 m = 6.0m/s * cos35º * 0.702s + ½a * (0.702s)²

a = -2.23 m/s²

This is the horizontal acceleration of the object.

Since the object is subject to only electric force in horizontal direction, this acceleration is due to electric force only

Therefore,the magnitude of the electric force on the projectile will be

F = m*|a|

= 0.015kg * 2.23m/s²

= 0.0335 N

Thus, the magnitude of the electric force on the projectile is 0.0335N

A ladder 10 ft long rests against a vertical wall. If the bottom of the ladder slides away from the wall at a rate of 1.4 ft/s,
Art [367]

Answer:

\dfrac{d\theta}{dt} =-0.233\ rad/s

Explanation:

given,

length of ladder = 10 ft

let x be the distance of the bottom and y be the distance of the top of ladder.

x² + y² = 100

differentiating with respect to time we get

2 x\dfrac{dx}{dt}+2y\dfrac{dy}{dt} = 0..............(1)

when x = 8 and y = 6 and when \dfrac{dx}{dt} = 1.4ft/s

from equation (1)

now,

16\times 1.4 + 12\dfrac{dy}{dt} = 0

\dfrac{dy}{dt} = -\dfrac{5.6}{3}

let the angle between the ladders be θ

tan\theta = \dfrac{y}{x}

y = xtan θ

\dfrac{dy}{dt} =\dfrac{dy}{dt} tan\theta + x sec^2\theta\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}

-\dfrac{5.6}{3} =1.4\times \dfrac{6}{8} + 8 (1+\dfrac{9}{16})\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}

\dfrac{25}{2} \dfrac{d\theta}{dt} =\dfrac{-17.5}{6}

\dfrac{d\theta}{dt} =-0.233\ rad/s

If Jupiter were 10 times more massive, it would generate nuclear fusion in its core and be a star instead of a planet. If Jupite
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Let me put it in numbers. Jupiter has mass of 1.898x10^27Kg, make it 10 times as much and it becomes 1.898x10^28 Kg.

TRAPPIST-1, smallest star ever found has Mass of 1.77x10^29Kg, that is around 93 times larger than the mass of Jupiter.

Clearly 10 times as much is not enough to generate fusion reaction and become a star, in theory Jupiter must be at least 85 times larger than it's current mass to be able to generate fusion reaction and become a star.

So i think we can conclude that if Jupiter were to have 10 times of its own mass, it would not become a star, therefore the given statement is False.

A solution is a homogeneous mixture of one or more solutes dissolved in a solvent. A specific volume of solvent is only able to
Luba_88 [7]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

C. Supersaturated

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • Solutions are homogeneous mixtures that are created by mixing a solute and a solvent. Solute is the substance present in smaller amounts that dissolves in a solvent such as water which is the substance present in larger amount.
  • A solution, can be<u> unsaturated, saturated or supersaturated. An unsaturated solution</u> is a solution that contains less solute that can be dissolved, it doesn't contain the maximum amount of solute.
  • <u>A saturated solution</u> is a solution containing the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved at a given temperature. Any additional solute will remain undissolved in the container.
  • <u>A supersaturated solution</u> is a solution created when a solution is carefully cooled because it contains more solute than the solubility allows.
