A key falls from a bridge that is 45 m above the water. the key falls straight down and lands in a model boat traveling at a con

stant velocity of 3.5 m/s. calculate the distance the boat was from the point of impact when the key was released.

Let the key is free falling, therefore from equation of motion

h = ut +\frac{1}{2}gt^2..

Take initial velocity, u=0, so

h = 0\times t + \frac{1}{2}g t^2= \frac{1}{2}gt^2.

h = 0\times t + \frac{1}{2}g t^2= \frac{1}{2}gt^2 \\\ t =\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} }

As velocity moves with constant velocity of 3.5 m/s, therefore we can use formula

d= v \times t

From above substituting t,

d = v \times \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} }.

Now substituting all the given values and g = 9.8 m/s^2, we get

d = 3.5 \ m/s \times \sqrt{\frac{2 \times 45 m}{9.8 m/s^2} } = 10.60 m.

Thus, the distance the boat was from the point of impact when the key was released is 10.60 m.

On an ice skating rink, a girl of mass 50 kg stands stationary, face to face with a boy of mass 80 kg. The children push off of
sasho [114]

The velocity of the girl is  -4.8 m/s.

Using the principle of conservation of linear momentum, The total momentum of  bodies before and after collision is constant. Since the two objects are stationary, the initial momentum of each body is zero.

Thus;

0 = (80 × 3) + (50 × v)

0 = 240 + 50 v

-240 = 50 v

v = -240/50

v = -4.8 m/s

Note that the negative sign shows that the velocity of the girl is in opposite direction that that of the girl.

Find the potential inside and outside a uniformly charged solid sphere whose radius is R and whose total charge is q. Use infini
amid [387]

Answer:

Recall that the electric field outside  a uniformly charged solid sphere  is exactly the same as if the charge were all at a point in the centre of the  sphere:

E_{outside} =\frac{1}{4\pi(e_{0})}\frac{Q}{r^{2} } r^{'}

lnside the sphere, the electric field also acts like a point charge, but only for the proportion of the charge further inside than the point r:

E_{inside} =\frac{1}{4\pi(e_{0})}\frac{Q}{R^{2} } \frac{r}{R} r^{'}

To find the potential, we integrate the electric field on a path from infinity (where of course, we take the direct path so that we can write the it as a 1 D integral):

V(r>R)=\int\limits^r_\infty {\frac{1}{4\pi(e_{0)} }\frac{Q}{r^2}  } \, dr=\frac{q}{4\pi(e_{0)} } \frac{1}{r} \\V(r

=\frac{q}{4\pi e_{0} } [\frac{1}{R} -\frac{r^{2}-R^{2}  }{2R^{3} } ]
