Why is it important to know the direction of the force applied to a moving object and the direction in which the object is movin

g when determining the work done on the object?
Only the component of the force perpendicular to the motion is used to calculate the work.
If the force acts in the same direction as the motion, then no work is done.
When there is an angle between the two directions, the cosine of the angle must be considered.
A force at a right angle to the motion requires the use of the sine of the angle.

Answer

(C).

When there is an angle between the two directions, the cosine of the angle must be considered.


Step by step Solution

The work done by a force is defined as the product of the force and the distance traveled in the direction of motion.

The first answer "Only the component of the force perpendicular to the motion is used to calculate the work" is wrong because, the force perpendicular to motion does no work.

The second choice "If the force acts in the same direction as the motion, then no work is done" is wrong because the work in the direction of the force is W=F\times d.

Fourth answer "A force at a right angle to the motion requires the use of the sine of the angle" is wrong because the sin(90)=0 meaning that there is no work done in the direction perpendicular to the motion.

The third answer" When there is an angle between the two directions, the cosine of the angle must be considered." is correct because the work is calculated using the force in the direction of the motion. The magnitude of this force is F\times d\times \cos(\theta).

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

E = 24000 N/C = 24 KN/C

Explanation:

The electric field experienced by a test charge is given by the following formula:

E = \frac{F}{q}\\\\

where,

E = Electric Field = ?

F = Force of attraction = 3 x 10⁻⁶ N

q = Charge on piece of lint = 1.25 x 10⁻¹⁰ C

Therefore, using these values in the equation, we get:

E = \frac{3\ x\ 10^{-6}\ N}{1.25\ x\ ^{-10}\ C}\\\\

<u>E = 24000 N/C = 24 KN/C</u>

What is the magnetic field strength required to make a proton with a speed of 5.0 x 10^(5) m/s follow a circular path of radius
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

Magnetic field strength required for this is 0.25 T

Explanation:

As we know that the proton moves in circular path in uniform magnetic field

so the radius of the path of the circle is given as

R = \frac{mv}{qB}

here we know that

q = 1.6 \times 10^{-19}C

m = 1.6 \times 10^{-27} kg

R = 0.0200 m

v = 5 \times 10^5 m/s

now we have

B = \frac{1.6 \times 10^{-27} (5 \times 10^5)}{(1.6 \times 10^{-19})(0.02)}

so we have

B = 0.25 T

1. Determine the potential energy of a 2kg rock at the top of a hill that is 20m high.
ycow [4]

Answer:

1) 392 joules

2) 625,000 joules

3) 156,800 joules

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy = mgh. m = mass in kg, g = acceleration due to gravity and h = height in meters.

Kinetic energy = 1/2(m)(v)^2, m = mass in kg, v = velocity in meters per second

1) P.E = 2 x 9.8 x 20 = 392 joules

2) K.E = 1/2 x 2000 x (25)^2 = 625,000 joules

3) P.E = 80 x 9.8 x 200 = 156,800 joules
