Starting from rest, a 2.3x10-4 kg flea springs straight upward. While the flea is pushing off from the ground, the ground exerts

an average upward force of 0.49 N on it. This force does 3.6x10-4 J of work on the flea. (a) What is the flea's speed when it leaves the ground

Answer:

3.13 m/s

Explanation:

From the question,

Since the flea spring started from rest,

Ek = W................... Equation 1

Where Ek = Kinetic Energy of the flea spring, W = work done on the flea spring.

But,

Ek = 1/2mv²............ Equation 2

Where m = mass of the flea spring, v = flea's speed when it leaves the ground.

substitute equation 2 into equation 1

1/2mv² = W.................... Equation 3

make v the subject of the equation

v = √(2W/m)................. Equation 4

Given: W = 3.6×10⁻⁴ J, m = 2.3×10⁻⁴ kg

Substitute into equation 4

v = √[2×3.6×10⁻⁴ )/2.3×10⁻⁴]

v = 7.2/2.3

v = 3.13 m/s

Hence the flea's speed when it leaves the ground  = 3.13 m/s

A solid non-conducting sphere of radius R carries a charge Q1 distributed uniformly. The sphere is surrounded by a concentric sp
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

E = k Q₁ / r²

Explanation:

For this exercise that asks us for the electric field between the sphere and the spherical shell, we can use Gauss's law

           Ф = ∫ E .dA = q_{int} / ε₀

where Ф the electric flow, qint is the charge inside the surface

To solve these problems we must create a Gaussian surface that takes advantage of the symmetry of the problem, in this almost our surface is a sphere of radius r, that this is the sphere of and the shell, bone

           R <r <R_a

for this surface the electric field lines are radial and the radius of the sphere are also, therefore the two are parallel, which reduces the scalar product to the algebraic product.

         E A = q_{int} /ε₀

The charge inside the surface is Q₁, since the other charge Q₂ is outside the Gaussian surface, therefore it does not contribute to the electric field

          q_{int} = Q₁

The surface area is

          A = 4π r²

we substitute

          E 4π r² = Q₁ /ε₀

          E = 1 / 4πε₀ Q₁ / r²

          k = 1/4πε₀

 

          E = k Q₁ / r²

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

<h2>B. 20°</h2>

Explanation:

Range in projectile is defined as the distance covered in the horizontal direction. It is expressed as R = U²sin2Ф/g

U is the initial velocity of the body (in m/s)

Ф is the angle of projection

g is the acceleration due to gravity.

Given U = 14m/s, g = 9.8m/s and range R = 15 m

we will substitute this value into the formula to get the projection angle Ф as shown;

15 = 15²sin2Ф/9.8

15*9.8 = 15²sin2Ф

147 = 225sin2Ф

sin2Ф = 147/225

sin2Ф = 0.6533

2Ф = sin⁻¹0.6533

2Ф = 40.79°

Ф = 40.79°/2

Ф = 20.39° ≈ 20°

Hence, the range is greatest at angle 20°
