A 3.5 kg block slides along a frictionless horizontal with a speed of 2.5 m/s. After sliding a distance of 5 m, the block makes

a smooth transition to a frictionless ramp inclined at an angle of 50â—¦ to the horizontal. The acceleration of gravity is 9.81 m/s 2 .

Answer:

L = 0.416 m

Explanation:

In this exercise to calculate the distance traveled in the branch that climbs the block we can use the concepts of energy

Starting point Flat part

Em₀ = K = ½ m v²

Final point. Highest part of the ramp

$Em_{f}$ = U = m g h

As there is no friction the mechanical energy is conserved

Em₀ = $Em_{f}$

½ m v² = m g h

h = v² / 2g

h = 2.5 2/2 9.8

h = 0.3189 m

The distance traveled can be found with trigonometry

sin 50 = h / L

L = h / sin 50

L = 0.3189 / sin50

L = 0.416 m

A quantum system has three energy levels, so three wavelengths appear in its emission spectrum. the shortest observed wavelength

daser333 [38]

The wavelength emitted is indirectly proportional to the difference in the change in the energy level. For the wavelength 278 nm the change in energy level is significantly high. Further change in energy level is indicated by 454nm light but the difference in energy level for this wavelength to be emitted is not greater than the previous one. There is a possibility that these subsystems have now very low energy which should result in wavelengths ranging from 700 to 900 nm. There is another possibility that there is some metastable subsystems in the system which may cause LASER emission.

Answer:

$i_2=3.61\ A$

Explanation:

<u>LC Circuit</u>

It's a special circuit made of three basic elements: The AC source, a capacitor, and an inductor. The charge, current, and voltage are oscillating when there is an interaction between the electric and magnetic fields of the elements. The following variables will be used for the formulas:

$q, q_1, q_2$ = charge of the capacitor in any time $t, t_1, t_2$

$q_o$ = initial charge of the capacitor

$\omega$ =angular frequency of the circuit

$i, i_1, i_2$ = current through the circuit in any time $t, t_1, t_2$

The charge in an LC circuit is given by

$q(t) = q_0 \, cos (\omega t )$

The current is the derivative of the charge

$\displaystyle i(t) = \frac{dq(t)}{dt} = - \omega q_0 \, sin(\omega t).$

We are given

$q_1=10\ mc=0.01\ c, i_1=3\ A,\ q_2=6\ mc=0.006\ c\ ,\ f=\frac{1000}{4\pi}$

It means that

$q(t_1) = q_0 \, cos (\omega t_1 )=q_1\ .......[eq 1]$

$i(t_1) = - \omega q_0 \, sin(\omega t_1)=i_1.........[eq 2]$

From eq 1:

$\displaystyle cos (\omega t_1 )=\frac{q_1}{q_0}$

From eq 2:

$\displaystyle sin(\omega t_1)=-\frac{i_1}{\omega q_0}$

Squaring and adding the last two equations, and knowing that

$sin^2x+cos^2x=1$

$\displaystyle \left ( \frac{q_1}{q_0} \right )^2+\left ( \frac{i_1}{\omega q_0} \right )^2=1$

Operating

$\displaystyle \omega^2q_1^2+i_1^2=\omega^2q_o^2$

Solving for $q_o$

$\displaystyle q_o=\frac{\sqrt{\omega^2q_1^2+i_1^2}}{\omega}$

Now we know the value of $q_0$ , we repeat the procedure of eq 1 and eq 2, but now at the second time $t_2$ , and solve for $i_2$

$\displaystyle \omega^2q_2^2+i_2^2=\omega^2q_o^2$

Solving for $i_2$

$\displaystyle i_2=w\sqrt{q_o^2-q_2^2}$

Now we replace the given values. We'll assume that the placeholder is a pi for the frequency, i.e.

$\displaystyle f=\frac{1}{4\pi}\ KHz$

$w=2\pi f=500\ rad/s$

$\displaystyle q_o=\frac{\sqrt{(500)^2(0.01)^2+3^2}}{500}$

$q_0=0.01166\ c$

Finally

$\displaystyle i_2=500\sqrt{0.01166^2-.006^2}$

$i_2=5\ A$
