A spotlight on the ground shines on a wall 12 m away. If a man 2 m tall walks from the spotlight toward the building at a speed
gregori [183]

Answer:

the rate of the change of the length of the shadow is - 0.8625 m/s.

The negative(-) sign means the length of the shadow decreases at a rate of 0.8625 m/s.

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Let x represent the man's distance from building,

initially x = 1m2

dx/d t= -2.3 m/s

Also Let y represent shadow height

so we determine dy/dt when x is 4m from the building

form the image description of the problem, we see two-like triangles with the same base and height ratios

so

 2 / (12-x) = y / 12

24 = y(12 - x )

y = 24 / (12-x)

dy/dt = 24/(12-x)² × dx/dt

Now at x = 4,

we substitute

dy/dt will be;

⇒ 24/(12 - 4)² × -2.3

= 24/64 - 2.3

= 0.375 × -2.3

dy/dt = - 0.8625 m/s

Therefore, the rate of the change of the length of the shadow is - 0.8625 m/s.

The negative(-) sign means the length of the shadow decreases at a rate of 0.8625 m/s.

An ideal spring hangs from the ceiling. A 2.15 kg mass is hung from the spring, stretching the spring a distance d = 0.0895 m fr
Igoryamba

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the mass at the instant it passes back through the equilibrium position is 0.06500 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 2.15 kg

Distance = 0.0895 m

Amplitude = 0.0235 m

We need to calculate the spring constant

Using newton's second law

F= mg

Where, f = restoring force

kx=mg

k=\dfrac{mg}{x}

Put the value into the formula

k=\dfrac{2.15\times9.8}{0.0895}

k=235.41\ N/m

We need to calculate the kinetic energy of the mass

Using formula of kinetic energy

K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

Here, v = A\omega

K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}m\times(A\omega)^2

Here, \omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}^2

K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}m\times A^2\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}^2

K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}kA^2

Put the value into the formula

K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times235.41\times(0.0235)^2

K.E=0.06500\ J

Hence, The kinetic energy of the mass at the instant it passes back through the equilibrium position is 0.06500 J.

Two point charges are fixed on the y axis: a negative point charge q1 = -25 μC at y1 = +0.18 m and a positive point charge q2 at
dedylja [7]

Answer:

50.91 \mu C

Explanation:

The magnitude of the net force exerted on q is known, we have the values and positions for q_{1} and q. So, making use of coulomb's law, we can calculate the magnitude of the force exerted byq_{1} on q. Then we can know the magnitude of the force exerted by q_{2} about q, finally this will allow us to know the magnitude of q_{2}

q_{1} exerts a force on q in +y direction, and q_{2} exerts a force on q in -y direction.

F_{1}=\frac{kq_{1} q }{d^2}\\F_{1}=\frac{(8.99*10^9)(25*10^{-6}C)(8.4*10^{-6}C)}{(0.18m)^2}=58.26 N\\

The net force on q is:

F_{T}=F_{1} - F_{2}\\25N=58.26N-F_{2}\\F_{2}=58.26N-25N=33.26N\\\mid F_{2} \mid=\frac{kq_{2}q}{d^2}

Rewriting for q_{2}:

q_{2}=\frac{F_{2}d^2}{kq}\\q_{2}=\frac{33.26N(0.34m)^2}{8.99*10^9\frac{Nm^2}{C^2}(8.4*10^{-6}C)}=50.91*10^{-6}C=50.91 \mu C
