A car is designed to get its energy from a rotating flywheel with a radius of 1.50 m and a mass of 430 kg. Before a trip, the fl

ywheel is attached to an electric motor, which brings the flywheel's rotational speed up to 5,200 rev/min.
Required:
a. Find the kinetic energy stored in the flywheel.
b. If the flywheel is to supply energy to the car as would a 15.0-hp motor, find the length of time the car could run before the flywheel would have to be brought back up to speed.

Answer:

a

  KE  =  7.17 *10^{7} \ J

b

 t = 6411.09 \ s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The radius of the flywheel is  r =  1.50 \ m

      The mass of the flywheel is m  = 430 \ kg

          The rotational speed of the flywheel is w  =  5,200 \ rev/min = 5200 *  \frac{2 \pi }{60} =544.61 \ rad/sec

      The power supplied by the motor is  P  =  15.0 hp =  15 * 746 =  11190 \ W

         

     Generally the moment of inertia of the flywheel is  mathematically represented as

       I  = \frac{1}{2} mr^2

substituting values

       I  = \frac{1}{2}  ( 430)(1.50)^2

       I  = 483.75 \  kgm^2

The kinetic energy that is been stored is  

       KE  =  \frac{1}{2} * I * w^2

substituting values

        KE  =  \frac{1}{2} * 483.75 * (544.61)^2

        KE  =  7.17 *10^{7} \ J

Generally power is mathematically represented as

          P =  \frac{KE}{t}

=>      t =  \frac{KE}{P}

substituting the value

        t = \frac{7.17 *10^{7}}{11190}

        t = 6411.09 \ s

A 10-μF capacitor in an LC circuit made entirely of superconducting materials ( R = 0 Ω ) is charged to 100 μC. Then a supercond
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Vdc=10V

Explanation:

in a closed loop consisting of a super charged capacitor and an inductor, the super charge capacitor acts as a supply when the loop is closed, at t=0, the emf stored in the capacitor is 10V (q/c); and at that same time Vl= voltage across the inductor or loop too would be 10V,

if the loop remains closed for  a longer period, the inductor would absorb energy from the capacitor till it dissipates all charges with itself.

Two 10-cm-diameter charged rings face each other, 25.0cm apart. Both rings are charged to +20.0nC. What is the electric field st
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

Part A:

E_{midpoint}=0

Part B:

E_{center}=2711.7558 N/C

Explanation:

Part A:

Formula of Electric Field Strength:

E=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon}\frac{xQ}{(x^2+R^2)^{3/2}}

Where:

x is the distance from the ring

R is the radius of the ring

\epsilon is constant permittivity of free space=8.854*10^-12 farads/meter

Q is the charge

For right Ring E at the midpoint can be calculated as:

x for right plate=25/2=12.5 cm=0.125 m

Radius=R=10/2=5 cm=0.05 m

E_{right}=\frac{1}{4\pi8.854*10^{-12}}\frac{(0.125)*(20*10^{-19})}{((0.125)^2+(0.05)^2)^{3/2}}\\E_{right}=9208.1758 N/C

For Left Ring E at the midpoint can be calculated as:

Since charge on both plates is +ve and same in magnitude, the electric field will be same for both plates.

E_{left}=\frac{1}{4\pi8.854*10^{-12}}\frac{(0.125)*(20*10^{-19})}{((0.125)^2+(0.05)^2)^{3/2}}\\E_{left}=9208.1758 N/C

Electric Field at midpoint:

Both rings have same magnitude but the direction of fields will be opposite as they have same charge on them.

E_{midpoint}=E_{left}-E_{right}\\E_{midpoint}=9208.1758-9208.1758\\E_{midpoint}=0

Part B:

At center of left ring:

Due to left ring Electric field at center is zero because x=0.

E_{left}=\frac{1}{4\pi8.854*10^{-12}}\frac{(0)*(20*10^{-19})}{((0)^2+(0.05)^2)^{3/2}}\\E_{left}=0 N/C

Due to right ring Electric field at center of left ring:

Now: x=25 cm= o.25 m (To the center of left ring)

E_{right}=\frac{1}{4\pi8.854*10^{-12}}\frac{(0.25)*(20*10^{-19})}{((0.25)^2+(0.05)^2)^{3/2}}\\E_{right}=2711.7558 N/C

Electric Field Strength at center of left ring is same as that of right ring.

E_{center}=2711.7558 N/C
