What is the force that opposes the movement of an object through water??

Physics

In air, you'd call it air resistance, pilots call it drag.  In water, some call it
water resistance, or just plain drag. 

Whatever it's called, it's the friction between the object and the fluid, plus
the force needed to push the fluid out of the way to let the object get through.

Vector A has a magnitude of 30 units. Vector B is perpendicular to vector Aand has a magnitude of 40 units. What would the magni
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

|\vec A + \vec B| = 50 units

Explanation:

As we know that magnitude of two vectors is given as

|\vec A + \vec B| = \sqrt{A^2 + B^2 + 2AB cos\theta}

here we know that

A = magnitude of vector A

B = magnitude of vector B

\theta = angle between two vectors

so here we know that

A = 30 units

B = 40 units

angle = 90 degree

so we have

|\vec A + \vec B| = \sqrt{30^2 + 40^2 + 2(30)(40)cos90}

|\vec A + \vec B| = \sqrt{30^2 + 40^2}

|\vec A + \vec B| = 50 units

you throw an object straight up at 15m/s. how fast is it going when it gets back to the height from which you threw it?
laiz [17]
At the same speed because it will slow down as it approaches the peak then speed up as it goes down again


it will be going 15m/s when it gets to the same height if we neglect air resistance and the object doesn't hit something

Consider a cyclotron in which a beam of particles of positive charge q and mass m is moving along a circular path restricted by
Ulleksa [173]

A) v=\sqrt{\frac{2qV}{m}}

B) r=\frac{mv}{qB}

C) T=\frac{2\pi m}{qB}

D) \omega=\frac{qB}{m}

E) r=\frac{\sqrt{2mK}}{qB}

Explanation:

A)

When the particle is accelerated by a potential difference V, the change (decrease) in electric potential energy of the particle is given by:

\Delta U = qV

where

q is the charge of the particle (positive)

On the other hand, the change (increase) in the kinetic energy of the particle is (assuming it starts from rest):

\Delta K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m is the mass of the particle

v is its final speed

According to the law of conservation of energy, the change (decrease) in electric potential energy is equal to the increase in kinetic energy, so:

qV=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

And solving for v, we find the speed v at which the particle enters the cyclotron:

v=\sqrt{\frac{2qV}{m}}

B)

When the particle enters the region of magnetic field in the cyclotron, the magnetic force acting on the particle (acting perpendicular to the motion of the particle) is

F=qvB

where B is the strength of the magnetic field.

This force acts as centripetal force, so we can write:

F=m\frac{v^2}{r}

where r is the radius of the orbit.

Since the two forces are equal, we can equate them:

qvB=m\frac{v^2}{r}

And solving for r, we find the radius of the orbit:

r=\frac{mv}{qB} (1)

C)

The period of revolution of a particle in circular motion is the time taken by the particle to complete one revolution.

It can be calculated as the ratio between the length of the circumference (2\pi r) and the velocity of the particle (v):

T=\frac{2\pi r}{v} (2)

From eq.(1), we can rewrite the velocity of the particle as

v=\frac{qBr}{m}

Substituting into(2), we can rewrite the period of revolution of the particle as:

T=\frac{2\pi r}{(\frac{qBr}{m})}=\frac{2\pi m}{qB}

And we see that this period is indepedent on the velocity.

D)

The angular frequency of a particle in circular motion is related to the period by the formula

\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T} (3)

where T is the period.

The period has been found in part C:

T=\frac{2\pi m}{qB}

Therefore, substituting into (3), we find an expression for the angular frequency of motion:

\omega=\frac{2\pi}{(\frac{2\pi m}{qB})}=\frac{qB}{m}

And we see that also the angular frequency does not depend on the velocity.

E)

For this part, we use again the relationship found in part B:

v=\frac{qBr}{m}

which can be rewritten as

r=\frac{mv}{qB} (4)

The kinetic energy of the particle is written as

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

So, from this we can find another expression for the velocity:

v=\sqrt{\frac{2K}{m}}

And substitutin into (4), we find:

r=\frac{\sqrt{2mK}}{qB}

So, this is the radius of the cyclotron that we must have in order to accelerate the particles at a kinetic energy of K.

Note that for a cyclotron, the acceleration of the particles is achevied in the gap between the dees, where an electric field is applied (in fact, the magnetic field does zero work on the particle, so it does not provide acceleration).

Salmon often jump waterfalls to reach their breeding grounds. Starting downstream, 3.18 m away from a waterfall 0.294 m in heigh
Karolina [17]

Answer:

v = 7.65 m/s

t = 0.5882 s

Explanation:

We are told that the salmon started downstream, 3.18 m away from a waterfall.

Thus, range = 3.18 m

Since the horizontal velocity component is constant, then;

Range = vcosθ × t

Thus,

vcosθ × t = 3.18 - - - (eq 1)

We are told the salmon reached a height of 0.294 m

Thus, using distance equation;

s = v_y•t + ½gt²

g will be negative since motion is against gravity.

s = v_y•t - ½gt²

Thus;

0.294 = v_y•t - ½gt²

v_y = vsinθ

Thus;

0.294 = vtsinθ - ½gt² - - - (eq 2)

From eq(1), making v the subject, we have;

v = 3.18/tcosθ

Plugging into eq 2,we have;

0.294 = (3.18/tcosθ)tsinθ - ½gt²

0.295 = 3.18tanθ - ½gt²

We are given g = 9.81 m/s² and θ = 45°

0.295 = (3.18 × tan 45) - ½(9.81) × t²

0.295 = 3.18 - 4.905t²

3.18 - 0.295 = 4.905t²

4.905t² = 2.885

t = √2.885/4.905

t = 0.5882 s

Thus;

v = 3.18/(0.5882 × cos45)

v = 7.65 m/s
