Answer:

The tangential acceleration is 0 m/s².

Explanation:

Given:

Radius of the wheel = 0.5 m

The point of observation for calculating tangential acceleration = 0.2 m from center.

Tangential speed at the point of observation = 2 m/s

The angular speed of the wheel is a constant.

In order to determine the tangential acceleration, we make use of the following formula:

Tangential acceleration at a point = Angular acceleration × Distance of the point from center

Or, $a_t=\alpha \times r$

Now, angular acceleration is defined as the rate of change of angular speed.

Here, the angular speed of the wheel is a constant. So, the change of angular speed is 0. Therefore, the angular acceleration is also 0 rad/s².

Now, from the above formula, as angular acceleration is 0, the magnitude of tangential acceleration at a point that is 0.2 m from the center of the wheel is also 0 m/s².

Work done by the force = Force x displacement. Power = work done/time = F.s/t = F.u.t/t = F.u = 95 x 20 = 1900J. {S=ut because acceleration is zero since car is moving at constant velocity}.

Glycerin (C3H8O3) is a nonvolatile liquid. What is the vapor pressure of a solution made by adding 154 g of glycerin to 316 mL o

garri49 [273]

Answer:

$P_{sol}=50.4\ mm.Hg$

Explanation:

According to given:

molecular mass of glycerin, $M_g=3\times 12+8+3\times 16=92\ g.mol^{-1}$

molecular mass of water, $M_w=2+16=18\ g.mol^{-1}$

∵Density of water is $0.992\ g.cm^{-3}= 0.992\ g.mL^{-1}$

∴mass of water in 316 mL, $m_w=316\times 0.992=313.5 g$

mass of glycerin, $m_g=154\ g$

pressure of mixture, $P_x=55.32\ torr= 55.32\ mm.Hg$

temperature of mixture, $T_x=40^{\circ}C$

<em>Upon the formation of solution the vapour pressure will be reduced since we have one component of solution as non-volatile.</em>

<u>moles of water in the given quantity:</u>

$n_w=\frac{m_w}{M_w}$

$n_w=\frac{313.5}{18}$

$n_w=17.42 moles$

<u>moles of glycerin in the given quantity:</u>

$n_g=\frac{m_g}{M_g}$

$n_g=\frac{154}{92}$

$n_g=1.674 moles$

<u>Now the mole fraction of water:</u>

$X_w=\frac{n_w}{n_w+n_g}$

$X_w=\frac{17.42}{17.42+1.674}$

$X_w=0.912$

<em>Since glycerin is non-volatile in nature so the vapor pressure of the resulting solution will be due to water only.</em>

$\therefore P_{sol}=X_w\times P_x$

$\therefore P_{sol}=0.912\times 55.32$

$P_{sol}=50.4\ mm.Hg$

A charged paint is spread in a very thin uniform layer over the surface of a plastic sphere of diameter 13.0 cm , giving it a ch

Leokris [45]

a) Electric field inside the paint layer: zero

b) Electric field just outside the paint layer: $-3.62\cdot 10^7 N/C$

c) Electric field 8.00 cm outside the paint layer: $-7.27\cdot 10^7 N/C$

Explanation:

a)

We can find the electric field inside the paint layer by applying Gauss Law: the total flux of the electric field through a gaussian surface is equal to the charge contained within the surface divided by the vacuum permittivity, mathematically:

$\int EdS = \frac{q}{\epsilon_0}$

where

E is the electric field

dS is the element of surface

q is the charge within the gaussian surface

$\epsilon_0 = 8.85\cdot 10^{-12}F/m$ is the vacuum permittivity

Here we want to find the electric field just inside the paint layer, so we take a sphere of radius $r$ as Gaussian surface, where

R = 6.5 cm = 0.065 m is the radius of the plastic sphere (half the diameter)

By taking the sphere of radius r, we note that the net charge inside this sphere is zero, therefore

$q=0$

So we have

$\int E dS=0$

which means that the electric field inside the paint layer is zero.

b)

Now we want to find the electric field just outside the paint layer: therefore, we take a Gaussian sphere of radius

$r=R=0.065 m$

The area of the surface is

$A=4\pi R^2$

And since the electric field is perpendicular to the surface at any point, Gauss Law becomes

$E\cdot 4\pi R^2 = \frac{q}{\epsilon_0}$

The charge included within the sphere in this case is the charge on the paint layer, therefore

$q=-17.0\mu C=-17.0\cdot 10^{-6}C$

So, the electric field is:

$E=\frac{q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R^2}=\frac{-17.0\cdot 10^{-6}}{4\pi(8.85\cdot 10^{-12})(0.065)^2}=-3.62\cdot 10^7 N/C$

where the negative sign means the direction of the field is inward, since the charge is negative.

c)

Here we want to calculate the electric field 8.00 cm outside the surface of the paint layer.

Therefore, we have to take a Gaussian sphere of radius:

$r=8.00 cm + R = 8.00 + 6.50 = 14.5 cm = 0.145 m$

Gauss theorem this time becomes

$E\cdot 4\pi r^2 = \frac{q}{\epsilon_0}$

And the charge included within the sphere is again the charge on the paint layer,

$q=-17.0\mu C=-17.0\cdot 10^{-6}C$

Therefore, the electric field is

$E=\frac{q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 r^2}=\frac{-17.0\cdot 10^{-6}}{4\pi(8.85\cdot 10^{-12})(0.145)^2}=-7.27\cdot 10^7 N/C$
