An object is thrown directly downward from the top of a very tall building. The speed of the object just as it is released is 17

Softa [21]

Answer:

distance cover is = 102.53 m

Explanation:

Given data:

speed of object is 17.1 m/s

$t_1 = 3.32 sec$

$t_2 = 5.08 sec$

from equation of motion we know that

$d_1 = vt_1 + \frac{1}{2} gt_1^2$

where d_1 is distance covered in time t1

so $d_1 = 17.1 \times 3.32 + \frac{1}{2} 9.8 \times 3.32^2$ =

$d_1 = 110.78 m$

$d_2 = vt_2 + \frac{1}{2} gt_2^2$

where d_2 is distance covered in time t2

$d_2 = 17.1 \times 5.08 + \frac{1}{2}\times9.8 \times 5.08^2$

$d_2 = 213.31 m$

distance cover is = 213.31 - 110.78 = 102.53 m

likoan [24]

Answer: 1175 J

Explanation:

Hooke's Law states that "the strain in a solid is proportional to the applied stress within the elastic limit of that solid."

Given

Spring constant, k = 102 N/m

Extension of the hose, x = 4.8 m

from the question, x(f) = 0 and x(i) = maximum elongation = 4.8 m

Work done =

W = 1/2 k [x(i)² - x(f)²]

Since x(f) = 0, then

W = 1/2 k x(i)²

W = 1/2 * 102 * 4.8²

W = 1/2 * 102 * 23.04

W = 1/2 * 2350.08

W = 1175.04

W = 1175 J

Therefore, the hose does a work of exactly 1175 J on the balloon

Two 10-cm-diameter charged rings face each other, 21.0 cm apart. Both rings are charged to +40.0 nC. What is the electric field

Katyanochek1 [597]

Complete question:

Two 10-cm-diameter charged rings face each other, 21.0 cm apart. Both rings are charged to +40.0 nC. What is the electric field strength at the midpoint between the two rings ?

Answer:

The electric field strength at the mid-point between the two rings is zero.

Explanation:

Given;

diameter of each ring, d = 10 cm = 0.1 m

distance between the rings, r = 21.0 cm = 0.21 m

charge of each ring, q = 40 nC = 40 x 10⁻⁹ C

let the midpoint between the two rings = x

The electric field strength at the midpoint between the two rings is given as;

$E_{mid} = E_{right} +E_{left}\\\\E_{right} = \frac{KQ}{(x^2 + r^2)^\frac{2}{3} } \\\\E_{leftt} = -\ \frac{KQ}{(x^2 + r^2)^\frac{2}{3} }\\\\E_{mid} = \frac{KQ}{(x^2 + r^2)^\frac{2}{3} } - \frac{KQ}{(x^2 + r^2)^\frac{2}{3} } = 0$

Therefore, the electric field strength at the mid-point between the two rings is zero.
