Several years from now you have graduated with an engineering/physics degree and have been hired by a nanoengineering firm as an

intern. You have been assigned to work under a top engineer from the company. Their current project is to design a microscopic oscillator as a time keeping device. The engineering design involves placing a negative charge at the center of a very small positively charged metal ring. Your boss claims that the negative charge will undergo simple harmonic motion if displaced away from the center of the ring. Furthermore, they claim they can change the period (timing) of oscillation by adjusting the amount of charge on the ring. The first task they give you is to check the validity of their design.
a. Consider a charge −???? located a small distance z above the center of a positively charged ring with total charge +Q and radius R. Write an expression for the net force exerted on the charge −???? due to the ring of charge. What is the magnitude of the force on the charge −???? if it is at the location z = 0?

b. Use the binomial expansion as a mathematical tool to understand the motion of the charged particle under the assumption that it is only displaced a small distance z ≪ ???? away from the center of the ring. Using the binomial approximation, simplify your expression from part (a). You should have two terms in your expression for the net force.

c. Suppose that z =1.0 nanometer and R = 1.0 millimeter. Using these values, determine the relative strength of the force that each term in your expression contributes to the total force (calculate the ratio of z/R that appears in each term). Is one term negligible (i.e. is the value of one term very close to zero)?

d. Using results from part (c) show that the relevant force on charge −???? simplifies to a Hook’s law restoring force: ???? = −????x, where k is now a more complicated constant made up of several constants from this problem. What is k?

e. Using Newton’s 2nd Law, write down the differential equation of motion for the particle as it undergoes oscillations due to this Hook’s law force. Determine the period T of oscillations charge −???? makes about the equilibrium point z = 0 (this should not involve any calculations, see equations 15.32 and 15.37 from your book). Asses the validity of your solution by analyzing the physical units to make sure that your solution has units of time.

How does work affect energy between objects so it can cause a change in the form of energy?
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

Doing work' is a way of transferring energy from one object to another, energy is transferred when a force moves through a distance.

Explanation:  So more energy, more work done bc u transferred more energy to move the object and doing the work. and if you only use a little of energy, the work done also only a little.

An engine with an electronic fuel injection system has high fuel pressure at idle. This could be caused by a:
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

An engine with an electronic fuel injection system has high fuel pressure at idle because of  high manifold vacuum. (option D)

Explanation:

Electronic fuel injection (EFI) system replaced carburetors back in the mid-1980s as the preferred method of supplying air and fuel to engines. The basic difference is that a carburetor uses intake vacuum and a pressure drop in the venturi, to siphon fuel from the carburetor fuel bowl into the engine. Whereas fuel injection system uses pressure to spray fuel directly into the engine.

However, under light load or at idle, a relatively high vacuum exists in the intake manifold. This means less fuel pressure is needed to spray a given volume of fuel through the injector. Under heavy load, engine vacuum drops to near zero.

Therefore, An engine with an electronic fuel injection system has high fuel pressure at idle because of  high manifold vacuum.

Question#7:a) A television uses 1500J of electric energy to produce 1100J 1 point
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

a.73.3%

b.26.6%

Explanation:

a. The efficiency is the energy output, divided by the energy input, and expressed as a percentage.

#Given the energy input as 1500J and the subsequent output as 1100J, the TV's efficiency is calculated as:

<em />\eta=\frac{E_o}{E_i}\\\\=\frac{1100}{1500}\times 100\%\\\\=73.33\%<em />

Hence, the TV has an efficiency of 33.3%

b. From a above, we know that the TV has an output of 1100J and input of 1500J.

-We therefore calculate it's wastage as the difference between output and input:

<em>Wastage=Energy Input-Energy Output=1500J-1400J=400J</em>

<em />E_w=\frac{E_{wasted}}{E_i}\times 100\%\\\\=(400/1500)\times100\%\\\\=26.67\%<em />

Hence, the TV has wasted of 26.6%
