Non- mechanical wave does not need matter to carry energy.
e.g:- Light
Answer:
-589.05 J
Explanation:
Using work-kinetic energy theorem, the work done by friction = kinetic energy change of the base runner
So, W = ΔK
W = 1/2m(v₁² - v₀²) where m = mass of base runner = 72.9 kg, v₀ = initial speed of base runner = 4.02 m/s and v₁ = final speed of base runner = 0 m/s(since he stops as he reaches home base)
So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have
W = 1/2m(v₁² - v₀²)
W = 1/2 × 72.9 kg((0 m/s)² - (4.02 m/s)²)
W = 1/2 × 72.9 kg(0 m²/s² - 16.1604 m²/s²)
W = 1/2 × 72.9 kg(-16.1604 m²/s²)
W = 1/2 × (-1178.09316 kgm²/s²)
W = -589.04658 kgm²/s²
W = -589.047 J
W ≅ -589.05 J
If the field is in a vacuum, the magnetic field is the dominant factor determining the motion. Since the magnetic force is perpendicular to the direction of travel, a charged particle follows a curved path in a magnetic field. The particle continues to follow this curved path until it forms a complete circle. Another way to look at this is that the magnetic force is always perpendicular to velocity, so that it does no work on the charged particle. The particle’s kinetic energy and speed thus remain constant. The direction of motion is affected but not the speed.
A negatively charged particle moves in the plane of the paper in a region where the magnetic field is perpendicular to the paper (represented by the small × ’s—like the tails of arrows). The magnetic force is perpendicular to the velocity, so velocity changes in direction but not magnitude. The result is uniform circular motion.
