Answer

Radius of the wheel r = 2.1 m

Moment of inertia I = 2500 Kg m²

Tangential force applied F = 18 N

Time interval t = 16 s

Initial angular speed ω1 = 0

Final angular speed ω2 = ?

Let α be the angular acceleration.

Torque applied τ = Iα

                         F r = Iα

Angular acceleration α = F r/I

                                    = \dfrac{18\times 2.1}{2500}

                                    = 0.015 rad/s²

(a)From rotational kinematic relation

            Final angular speed ω₂ = ω₁ + αt

                                                 = 0 + (0.015 rad/s^2 * 16 s)

                                                 = 0.24 rad/s

(b) Work done W = 0.5 Iω₂² - (1/2)Iω₁²

                      = 0.5*( 2500 Kg m²)(0.24 rad/s)^2 - 0

                      =  72 J

(c) Average power supplied by the child P = W/t = \dfrac{72}{16}

                                                                        = 4.5 watt

a fast charged particle passes perpendicularly through a thin glass sheet of index of refraction 1.5. The particle emits light i
NeX [460]

The minimum speed of the particle is the Speed of light in glass is c/μ=2×108m/s.

<h3>Why is the refractive index important?</h3>

The higher the refractive index the slower the light travels, which causes a correspondingly increased change in the direction of the light within the material. What this means for lenses is that a higher refractive index material can bend the light more and allow the profile of the lens to be lower.

Refractive index values are usually determined at standard temperature. A higher temperature means the liquid becomes less dense and less viscous, causing light to travel faster in the medium.

A 2000-kg car moving with a speed of 20 m/s collides with and sticks to a 1500-kg car at rest at a stop sign. Show that because
amid [387]

Answer:

13.33m/s

Explanation:

Given data

m1= 2000kg

u1= 20m/s

m2= 1500kg

u2= 0m/s

v1= 10m/s

Required

The speed of the sticks

We know that  from the expression for the conservation of momentum

m1u1+m2u2= m1v1+m2v2

2000*20+1500*0=2000*10+1500*v2

40000=20000+1500v2

collect like terms

40000-20000= 1500v2

20000= 1500v2

v2= 20000/1500

v2= 13.33 m/s

Hence the velocity of the sticks is 13.33m/s

An infinitely long straight wire has a uniform linear charge density of Derive the 4. equation for the electric field a distance
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

E = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0 r}

Explanation:

Let the linear charge density of the charged wire is given as

\frac{q}{L} = \lambda

here we can use Gauss law to find the electric field at a distance r from wire

so here we will assume a Gaussian surface of cylinder shape around the wire

so we have

\int E. dA = \frac{q}{\epsilon_0}

here we have

E \int dA = \frac{\lambda L}{\epsilon_0}

E. 2\pi r L = \frac{\lambda L}{\epsilon_0}

so we have

E = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0 r}
