Mariulka [41]

Answer:

v₀ = 13.9 10³ m / s

Explanation:

Let's analyze this exercise we can use the basic kinematics relationships to love the initial velocity and the acceleration we can look for from Newton's second law where force is gravitational attraction.

    F = m a

    G m M / x² = m dv / dt = m dv/dx  dx/dt

    G M / x² = dv/dx   v

    GM dx / x² = v dv

We integrate

    v² / 2 = GM (-1 / x)

We evaluate between the lower limits where x = Re = 6.37 10⁶m  and the velocity v = vo and the upper limit x = 2.50 10⁸m  with a velocity of v = 8.50 10³ m/s

    ½ ((8.5 10³)² - v₀²) = GM (-1 /(2.50 10⁸) + 1 / (6.37 10⁶))

    72.25 10⁶ - v₀² = 2 G M (+0.4 10⁻⁸ - 1.57 10⁻⁷)

    72.25 10⁶ - v₀² = 2 6.63 10⁻¹¹ 5.98 10²⁴ (-15.3  10⁻⁸)

    72.25 10⁶ - v₀² = -1.213  10⁸

    v₀² = 72.25 10⁶ + 1,213 10⁸

    v₀² = 193.6 10⁶

    v₀ = 13.9 10³ m / s

A charge of 32.0 nC is placed in a uniform electric field that is directed vertically upward and has a magnitude of 4.30x 104 V/
hodyreva [135]

A) The work done by the electric field is zero

B) The work done by the electric field is 9.1\cdot 10^{-4} J

C) The work done by the electric field is -2.4\cdot 10^{-3} J

Explanation:

A)

The electric field applies a force on the charged particle: the direction of the force is the same as that of the electric field (for a positive charge).

The work done by a force is given by the equation

W=Fd cos \theta

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement of the particle

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and the direction of the displacement

In this problem, we have:

  • The force is directed vertically upward (because the field is directed vertically upward)
  • The charge moves to the right, so its displacement is to the right

This means that force and displacement are perpendicular to each other, so

\theta=90^{\circ}

and cos 90^{\circ}=0: therefore, the work done on the charge by the electric field is zero.

B)

In this case, the charge move upward (same direction as the electric field), so

\theta=0^{\circ}

and

cos 0^{\circ}=1

Therefore, the work done by the electric force is

W=Fd

and we have:

F=qE is the magnitude of the electric force. Since

E=4.30\cdot 10^4 V/m is the magnitude of the electric field

q=32.0 nC = 32.0\cdot 10^{-9}C is the charge

The electric force is

F=(32.0\cdot 10^{-9})(4.30\cdot 10^4)=1.38\cdot 10^{-3} N

The displacement of the particle is

d = 0.660 m

Therefore, the work done is

W=Fd=(1.38\cdot 10^{-3})(0.660)=9.1\cdot 10^{-4} J

C)

In this case, the angle between the direction of the field (upward) and the displacement (45.0° downward from the horizontal) is

\theta=90^{\circ}+45^{\circ}=135^{\circ}

Moreover, we have:

F=1.38\cdot 10^{-3} N (electric force calculated in part b)

While the displacement of the charge is

d = 2.50 m

Therefore, we can now calculate the work done by the electric force:

W=Fdcos \theta = (1.38\cdot 10^{-3})(2.50)(cos 135.0^{\circ})=-2.4\cdot 10^{-3} J

And the work is negative because the electric force is opposite direction to the displacement of the charge.

A 5.5-kW resistance heater in a water heater runs for 3 hours to raise the water temperature to the desired level. Determine the
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

16.5 kwh and 59400 kJ.

Explanation:

kWh is a measure of energy that is equivalent to the power in kw times the number of hours the device worked.

In this case, it would be equal to:

E_{kwh}=5.5kw*3h=16.5kwh

1 kw also means 1kj of energy spent per second. With this, we calculate the amount of energy in kJ spent by the resistance:

E_{kJ}=5.5\frac{kJ}{s}*3h*\frac{3600s}{1h} = 59400 kJ

Belly-flop Bernie dives from atop a tall flagpole into a swimming pool below. His potential energy at the top is 7000 J (relativ
elena55 [62]

Answer:

KE₂ = 6000 J

Explanation:

Given that

Potential energy at top U₁= 7000 J

Potential energy at bottom U₂= 1000 J

The kinetic energy at top ,KE₁= 0 J

Lets take kinetic energy at bottom level =  KE₂

Now from energy conservation

U₁+ KE₁= U₂+ KE₂

Now by putting the values

U₁+ KE₁= U₂+ KE₂

7000+ 0 = 1000+ KE₂

KE₂ = 7000 - 1000 J

KE₂ = 6000 J

Therefore the kinetic energy at bottom is 6000 J.

Special relativity can be used to study an object in which frame of reference?
Tresset [83]
Special relativity led the path for general relativity; special relativity is in a sense a special application of the rules of general relativity. While general relativity is in position to tackle all of these problems, special relativity can tackle only problems in inertial frames. Inertial frame means that the frame of reference is inot accelerating. So, we disqualify answers A and D. However, remember that moving in a circle means that there is an acceleration, the centrifugal one, even if the speed does not change. Hence C is also incorrect.
The correct answer is B, since if there is no change in velocity, the frame does not accelerate and it is inertial.
