You are a member of an alpine rescue team and must project a box of supplies, with mass m, up an incline of constant slope angle

a so that it reaches a stranded skier who is a vertical distance h above the bottom of the incline. The incline is slippery, but there is some friction present, with kinetic friction coefficient µk.
Use the work-energy theorem to calculate the minimum speed v that you must give the box at the bottom of the incline so that it will reach the skier.
Express your answer in terms of some or all of the variables m, g, h, µk, and a.

Answer:

v = \sqrt{2gh + \frac{2\mu_kgh}{tan\theta}}

Explanation:

When we push the box from the bottom of the incline towards the top then by work energy theorem we can say that

Work done by all the forces = change in kinetic energy of the system

- mgh - F_f (s) = 0 - \frac{1}{2}mv^2

here we know that

F_f = \mu_k mg cos\theta

also we know that the length of the incline is given as

s = \frac{h}{sin\theta}

now we have

- mgh - \mu_k mgcos\theta(\frac{h}{sin\theta}) = -\frac{1}{2}mv^2

so we have

v = \sqrt{2gh + \frac{2\mu_kgh}{tan\theta}}

g Suppose that you charge a 3 F capacitor in a circuit containing eight 3.0 V batteries, so the final potential difference acros
Vladimir79 [104]

The complex, highly technical formula for capacitors is

<em>Q = C V</em>

Charge = (capacitance) (voltage)

Charge = (3 F) (24 V)

<em>Charge = 72 Coulombs</em>

The positive plate of the capacitor is missing 72 coulombs worth of electrons.  They were sucked into positive terminal of the battery stack.

The negative plate of the capacitor has 72 coulombs worth of extra electrons.  They came from the negative terminal of the battery stack.

You should be aware that this is a humongous amount of charge !  An average <u><em>lightning bolt</em></u>, where electrons flow between a cloud and the ground for a short time, is estimated to transfer around <u><em>15 coulombs</em></u> of charge !

The scenario in the question involves a "supercapacitor".  3 F is is no ordinary component ... One distributor I checked lists one of these that's able to stand 24 volts on it, but that product costs $35 apiece, you have to order at least 100 of them at a time, and they take 2 weeks to get.  

Also, IF you can charge this animal to 24 volts, it will hold 864J of energy.  You'd probably have a hard time accomplishing this task with a bag of leftover AA batteries.

Consider a hydrogen atom in the n = 1 state. The atom is placed in a uniform B field of magnitude 2.5 T. Calculate the energy di
dlinn [17]

Answer:

E=29\times 10^{-5}eV

Explanation:

For n-=1 state hydrogen energy level is split into three componets in the presence of external magnetic field. The energies are,

E^{+}=E+\mu B,

E^{-}=E-\mu B,

E^{0}=E

Here, E is the energy in the absence of electric field.

And

E^{+} and E^{-} are the highest and the lowest energies.

The difference of these energies

\Delta E=2\mu B

\mu=9.3\times 10^{-24}J/T is known as Bohr's magneton.

B=2.5 T,

Therefore,

\Delta E=2(9.3\times 10^{-24}J/T)\times 2.5 T\\\Delta E=46.5\times 10^{-24}J

Now,

Delta E=46.5\times 10^{-24}J(\frac{1eV}{1.6\times 10^{-9}J } )\\Delta E=29.05\times 10^{-5}eV\\Delta E\simeq29\times 10^{-5}eV

Therefore, the energy difference between highest and lowest energy levels in presence of magnetic field is E=29\times 10^{-5}eV
