Serga [27]

Answer:

q = 6.48 \times 10^{-14} C

Explanation:

Deflection in the drop is due to electric field force

so we will have

F = qE

acceleration of the drop is given as

a = \frac{qE}{m}

a = \frac{q(7.75 \times 10^4)}{1.00 \times 10^{-11}}

a = 7.75 \times 10^{15} q

now we know that time to cross the plates is given as

t = \frac{D}{v}

t = \frac{0.02}{18}

t = 1.11 \times 10^{-3} s

now the deflection is given as

d = \frac{1}{2}at^2

0.310 \times 10^{-3} = \frac{1}{2}(7.75 \times 10^{15} q)(1.11 \times 10^{-3})^2

0.310 \times 10^{-3} = 4.78 \times 10^9 q

q = 6.48 \times 10^{-14} C

Explain why a cow that touches an electric fence experiences a mild shock
Minchanka [31]
The voltage exists between the fence and the ground.  The cow is grounded. The cow is touching the ground, completing the circuit of electricity. <span>When the cow comes into contact with the fence, it becomes an electric ground which sends an electric current into the cow, through the cow, and into the ground. The pain experienced from the shock is due to the current that flows through the cow.</span>

Problem 4: A uniform flat disk of radius R and mass 2M is pivoted at point P A point mass of 1/2 M is attached to the edge of th
brilliants [131]

From the case we know that:

  1. The moment of inertia Icm of the uniform flat disk witout the point mass is Icm = MR².
  2. The moment of inerta with respect to point P on the disk without the point mass is Ip = 3MR².
  3. The total moment of inertia (of the disk with the point mass with respect to point P) is I total = 5MR².

Please refer to the image below.

We know from the case, that:

m = 2M

r = R

m2 = 1/2M

distance between the center of mass to point P = p = R

Distance of the point mass to point P = d = 2R

We know that the moment of inertia for an uniform flat disk is 1/2mr². Then the moment of inertia for the uniform flat disk is:

Icm = 1/2mr²

Icm = 1/2(2M)(R²)

Icm = MR² ... (i)

Next, we will find the moment of inertia of the disk with respect to point P. We know that point P is positioned at the arc of the disk. Hence:

Ip = Icm + mp²

Ip = MR² + (2M)R²

Ip = 3MR² ... (ii)

Then, the total moment of inertia of the disk with the point mass is:

I total = Ip + I mass

I total = 3MR² + (1/2M)(2R)²

I total = 3MR² + 2MR²

I total = 5MR² ... (iii)

When point charges q = +8.4 uC and q2 = +5.6 uC are brought near each other, each experiences a repulsive force of magnitude 0.6
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

it is separated by 80 cm distance

Explanation:

As per Coulombs law we know that force between two point charges is given by

F = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

here we know that

q_1 = +8.4\mu C

q_2 = +5.6 \mu C

force between two charges is given as

F = 0.66 N

now we have

F = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

0.66 = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(8.4 \mu C)(5.6 \mu C)}{r^2}

r = 0.8 m

so it is separated by 80 cm distance

A ball is shot at an angle of 45 degrees into the air with initial velocity of 46 ft/sec. Assuming no air resistance, how high d
mestny [16]

Answer:

5.02 m

Explanation:

Applying the formula of maximum height of a projectile,

H = U²sin²Ф/2g...................... Equation 1

Where H = maximum height, U = initial velocity, Ф = angle, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Given: U = 46 ft/sec = 14.021 m/s, Ф = 45°

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 1

H = (14.021)²sin²45/(2×9.8)

H = 196.5884×0.5/19.6

H = 5.02 m.

Hence the ball goes 5.02 m high
