The electric field in a region of space has the components Ey = Ez = 0 and Ex = (4.00 N/C · m) x. Point A is on the y axis at y

= 3.80 m, and Point B is on the x axis at x = 4.40 m. What is the potential difference VB − VA?

Answer:

   V_{b}-V_{a} = -38.72

Explanation:

Consider the axis diagram attached.

Given:

                                        Ey = Ez = 0

                                       Eₓ = - 4x N/C · m

Since electric field is in x direction, potential difference would be:

              V_{b} - V_{a} =-\int\limits^{4.40}_{0} {E_{x} } \, dx

Here we integrate between limits 0 and 4.40 which is distance between A and B along x-axis.  

              V_{b} - V_{a} = -4 \left[\begin{array}{ccc}\frac{x^{2} }{2} \end{array}\right]^{4.40}_{0}

                       V_{b}-V_{a} = -4 (9.68)\\V_{b}-V_{a} = -38.72

You are standing a distance of 17.0 meters from the center of a merry-go-round. The merry-go-round takes 9.50 seconds to go comp
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

(a)11.24 m/s

(b)7.44 m/s

(c)409 N

(d)539.55\mu

(e) 0

Explanation:

The period for 1 circle 2\pi of the merry go around is 9.5s. It means the angular speed is:

\omega = \theta / t = 2\pi / 9.5 \approx 0.661 rad/s

(a)The speed is

v = \omega * R = 0.661 * 17 = 11.24 m/s

(b) Centripetal acceleration:

a = \frac{v^2}{R} = \frac{11.24^2}{17} = 7.44 m/s^2

(c) Magnitude of the force that keeps you go around at this acceleration

F = ma = 55 * 7.44 = 409 N

(d) let the coefficient of friction by \mu. The frictional force shall be this coefficient multiplied by normal force reverting gravity of the man

F_f = mg\mu = 55*9.81\mu = 539.55\mu

a college student produces about 100 kcal of heat per hour on the average what is the rate of energy production and joules
Bond [772]

Given:

Amount of heat produced = 100 kcal per hour

Let's find the rate of energy production in joules.

We know that:

1 calorie = 4.184 Joules

1 kcal = 4.184 Joules

To find the rate of energy production in Joules, we have:

\begin{gathered} Rate=100\ast4.184 \\  \\ \text{Rate}=418.4\text{ KJ/hour} \end{gathered}

Therefore, the rate of energy production in joules is 418.4 kJ/h which is equivalent to 418400 Joules

ANSWER:

418.4 kJ/h

For two traveling waves, if the crest of one wave coincides with a trough of another, what type of interference occurs?
kogti [31]
When crest of one wave interferes with the trough of other wave, the amplitude of the resultant wave formed is less. Hence the type of interference is destructive interference.

Which type of energy is stored in a capacitor? electric potential energy chemical energy gravitational energy heat energy
Tom [10]

Energy stored in a capacitor is Electric Potential Energy. Capacitor is device used for storing energy. The work done to charge is a capacitor is stored in it in the form of Electrical potential energy. Electrical potential energy is defined as capacity to do work due to the position change. For example, we know fans have capacitor installed in it. When we turn off the fan, it continue moving using the electrical energy stored in the capacitor.
