Differentiate between center of mass and center of gravity

ELEN [110]

Answer:

Centre of mass is the point at which the distribution of mass is equal in all directions, and does not depend on gravitational field. Centre of gravity is the point at which the distribution of weight is equal in all directions, and does depend on gravitational field.

A flat sheet of paper of area 0.365 m2 is oriented so that the normal to the sheet is at an angle of 60 ∘ to a uniform electric

andriy [413]

Answer:

A.) 3.65 N*m²/C B) No C) 0º D) 90º

Explanation:

A) The electric flux, when the electric field is uniform across a gausssian surface, can be calculated as the dot product of the electric field vector, and the vector representing the area of the surface (normal to the surface and directed outward it by convention), as follows:

Flux = E*A*cos φ

where E = 20 N/C, A = 0.365 m², φ = 60º.

Replacing by the values, we can get the value of the electric flux, as follows:

Flux = 20 N/C* 0.365 m²*0.5 = 3.65 N*m²/C

B) While the area remains constant, and doesn't change orientation, the value of the flux will be the same, regardless the shape of the sheet.

C) When the normal to the sheet and the electric field are parallel each other, the surface will intercept the maximum number of field lines, i.e. the flux will be directly E*A*cos 0º = E*A (maximum value possible).

D) When the electric field is tangent to the surface, this means that no field lines will be intercepted by the sheet, so the flux is zero.

In this case, φ = 90º, cos φ = 0

⇒ E*A*cos 90º = E*A*0 = 0

a man crossed a road 8.25m wide at a speed of 2.01m/s,how long does it take to get man to cross the road

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

t = 4.1 seconds

Explanation:

It is given that,

Width of road which is to be crossed by a man is 8.25 m, it means it is distance to be covered.

Speed of man is 2.01 m/s

We need to find the time taken by the man to cross the road. It is a concept of speed. Speed of a person is given by total distance covered divided by time taken. So,

$v=\dfrac{d}{t}$

t is time taken

$t=\dfrac{d}{v}\\\\t=\dfrac{8.25}{2.01}\\\\t=4.1\ s$

So, the time taken by the man to cross the road is 4.1 seconds.

A student pushes on a 20.0 kg box with a force of 50 N at an angle of 30° below the horizontal. The box accelerates at a rate of

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

225 N

Explanation:

"Below the horizontal" means he's pushing down at an angle.

Draw a free body diagram of the box. There are three forces: normal force N pushing up, weight force mg pulling down, and the applied force F at an angle θ.

Sum of forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

N − mg − F sin θ = 0

N = F sin θ + mg

Plug in values:

N = (50 N) (sin 30°) + (20.0 kg) (10 m/s²)

N = 225 N
