Two ships leave a harbor at the same time, traveling on courses that have an angle of 110∘ between them. If the first ship trave

ls at 22 miles per hour and the second ship travels at 34 miles per hour, how far apart are the two ships after 1.2 hours?

Answer:

49.07 miles

Explanation:

Angle between two ships = 110° = θ

First ship speed = 22 mph

Second ship speed = 34 mph

Distance covered by first ship after 1.2 hours = 22×1.2 = 26.4 miles = b

Distance covered by second ship after 1.2 hours = 34×1.2 = 40.8 miles = c

Here the angle between the two sides of a triangle is 110° so from the law of cosines we get

a² = b²+c²-2bc cosθ

⇒a² = 26.4²+40.8²-2×26.4×40.8 cos110

⇒a² = 2408.4

⇒a = 49.07 miles

Consider the vector field. f(x, y, z) = xy2z2i x2yz2j x2y2zk (a) find the curl of the vector field?
Marat540 [252]

Observe that the given vector field is a gradient field:

Let f(x,y,z)=\nabla g(x,y,z), so that

\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial x} = x y^2 z^2

\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial y} = x^2 y z^2

\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial z} = x^2 y^2 z

Integrating the first equation with respect to x, we get

g(x,y,z) = \dfrac12 x^2 y^2 z^2 + h(y,z)

Differentiating this with respect to y gives

\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial y} = x^2 y z^2 + \dfrac{\partial h}{\partial y} = x^2 y z^2 \\\\ \implies \dfrac{\partial h}{\partial y} = 0 \implies h(y,z) = i(z)

Now differentiating g with respect to z gives

\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial z} = x^2 y^2 z + \dfrac{di}{dz} = x^2 y^2 z \\\\ \implies \dfrac{di}{dz} = 0 \implies i(z) = C

Putting everything together, we find a scalar potential function whose gradient is f,

f(x,y,z) = \nabla \left(\dfrac12 x^2 y^2 z^2 + C\right)

It follows that the curl of f is 0 (i.e. the zero vector).

The inductive reactance of the circuit is exactly twice the resistance: XL=2R. Adjust the phasor that represents the voltage acr
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

∅=63.43^{0}

Explanation:

z=impedance

x_{l}=2R

R=R

The resultant of the resistances in the circuit is called impedance

x_{l} is inductive reactance of the circuit

R is the resistance of the resistor

z=\sqrt{xl^{2}+R^2 }

z=\sqrt{2R^{2}+R^2 }

Z=\sqrt{5R^2}

Z=R\sqrt{5}ohms

tan∅=2R/R

tan∅=2

∅=Tan^-1(2)

∅=63.43^{0}

phase angle is ∅=63.43^{0}

A proton having an initial velvocity of 20.0i Mm/s enters a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.300 T with a direction perpend
Sonja [21]

The time interval for which the proton remains in the field is -

Δt = $\frac{\pi R}{40}.

We have a proton entering a uniform magnetic field which is in a direction perpendicular to the proton's velocity.

We have to determine time interval during which the proton is in the field.

<h3>What is the magnitude of force on the charged particle moving in a uniform magnetic field?</h3>

The magnitude of force on the charged particle moving in a uniform magnetic field is given by -

F = qvB sinθ



According to the question, we have -

Entering Velocity (v) = 20 i  m/s

Magnetic field intensity (B) = 0.3 T

Leaving velocity (u) = - 20 j  m/s

Now -

The entering and leaving velocity vectors have 90 degrees difference between them. Therefore, only a quarter of distance of the complete circular path of radius 'R' is traced by the proton. Therefore -

d = $\frac{2\pi r}{4} = $\frac{\pi R}{2}

Since, the radius of circular path is not given, we will assume it R.

Therefore, time for which proton remained in the field is -

t = $\frac{\pi R}{2v} = \frac{\pi R}{40}

Hence, the time interval for which the proton remains in the field is -

Δt = $\frac{\pi R}{40}
