An object with mass 80 kg moved in outer space. When it was at location <7, -34, -7> its speed was 14.0 m/s. A single cons

tant force <200, 460, -150> N acted on the object while the object moved to location <12, -42, -11> m. What is the speed of the object at this final location?

Answer:

W = -2080 J

Explanation:

initial position vector of the object is given as

$r_i = 7\hat i - 34\hat j - 7 \hat k$

similarly final position vector is given as

$r_f = 12\hat i - 42\hat j - 11\hat k$

now the displacement of the object is given as

$\vec d = \vec r_f - \vec r_i$

now we will have

$\vec d = (12\hat i - 42\hat j - 11\hat k) - (7\hat i - 34\hat j - 7 \hat k)$

$\vec d = 5\hat i - 8\hat j- 4\hat k$

now the force on the object is given as

$\vec F = (200\hat i + 460 \hat j - 150 \hat k)$

so here in order to find the work done

$W = \vec F . \vec d$

$W = (200\hat i + 460 \hat j - 150 \hat k). (5\hat i - 8\hat j- 4\hat k)$

$W = 1000 - 3680 + 600 = -2080 J$

Answer:

Gravitational attraction of the sun.

Explanation:

Gravity is an attractive force. Any two masses will exert an attractive force on the other according to Newton's law of universal gravitation. The more massive the objects, the stronger the force. The sun, as you can probably guess, is pretty massive - 330,000 times more than Earth, and 1,048 time more than Jupiter, our solar system's largest planet. Just like man-made satellites around Earth, the planets in our solar system are constant process of "falling" around the sun, locked in their orbits by its mass, but slowing dramatically in their orbital velocity the further away they are.

Monochromatic light of wavelength λ=620nm from a distant source passes through a slit 0.450 mm wide. The diffraction pattern is

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

The intensity of light from the 1mm from the central maximu is $I = 0.822I_o$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The wavelength is $\lambda = 620 nm = 620 *10^{-9}m$

The width of the slit is $w = 0.450mm = \frac{0.45}{1000} = 0.45*10^{-3} m$

The distance from the screen is $D = 3.00m$

The intensity at the central maximum is $I_o$

The distance from the central maximum is $d_1 = 1.00mm = \frac{1}{1000} = 1.0*10^{-3}m$

Let z be the the distance of a point with intensity I from central maximum

Then we can represent this intensity as

$I = I_o [\frac{sin [\frac{\pi * w * sin (\theta )}{\lambda} ]}{\frac{\pi * w * sin (\theta )}{\lambda } } ]^2$

Now the relationship between D and z can be represented using the SOHCAHTOA rule i.e

$sin \theta = \frac{z}{D}$

if the angle between the the light at z and the central maximum is small

Then $sin \theta = \theta$

Which implies that

$\theta = \frac{z}{D}$

substituting this into the equation for the intensity

$I = I_o [\frac{sin [\frac{\pi w}{\lambda} \cdot \frac{z}{D} ]}{\frac{\pi w z}{\lambda D\frac{x}{y} } } ]$

given that $z =1mm = 1*10^{-3}m$

We have that

$I = I_o [\frac{sin[\frac{3.142 * 0.45*10^{-3}}{(620 *10^{-9})} \cdot \frac{1*10^{-3}}{3} ]}{\frac{3.142 * 0.45*10^{-3}*1*10^{-3} }{620*10^{-9} *3} } ]^2$

$=I_o [\frac{sin(0.760)}{0.760}] ^2$

$I = 0.822I_o$

A simple motor converts

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

An electric motor is an electrical machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. Most electric motors operate through the interaction between the motor's magnetic field and electric current in a wire winding to generate force in the form of rotation of a shaft. Electric motors can be powered by direct current (DC) sources, such as from batteries, motor vehicles or rectifiers, or by alternating current (AC) sources, such as a power grid, inverters or electrical generators. An electric generator is mechanically identical to an electric motor, but operates in the reverse direction, converting mechanical energy into electrical energy.

Electric motors may be classified by considerations such as power source type, internal construction, application and type of motion output. In addition to AC versus DC types, motors may be brushed or brushless, may be of various phase (see single-phase, two-phase, or three-phase), and may be either air-cooled or liquid-cooled. General-purpose motors with standard dimensions and characteristics provide convenient mechanical power for industrial use. The largest electric motors are used for ship propulsion, pipeline compression and pumped-storage applications with ratings reaching 100 megawatts. Electric motors are found in industrial fans, blowers and pumps, machine tools, household appliances, power tools and disk drives. Small motors may be found in electric watches.

In certain applications, such as in regenerative braking with traction motors, electric motors can be used in reverse as generators to recover energy that might otherwise be lost as heat and friction.

Electric motors produce linear or rotary force (torque) intended to propel some external mechanism, such as a fan or an elevator. An electric motor is generally designed for continuous rotation, or for linear movement over a significant distance compared to its size. Magnetic solenoids produce significant mechanical force, but over an operating distance comparable to their size. Transducers such as loudspeakers and microphones convert between electrical current and mechanical force to reproduce signals such as speech. When compared with common internal combustion engines (ICEs), electric motors are lightweight, physically smaller, provide more power output, are mechanically simpler and cheaper to build, while providing instant and consistent torque at any speed, with more responsiveness, higher overall efficiency and lower heat generation. However, electric motors are not as convenient or common as ICEs in mobile applications (i.e. cars and buses) as they require a large and expensive battery, while ICEs require a relatively small fuel tank.
