Answer:

 F = 0.111015 N

Explanation:

For this exercise the force is given by Coulomb's law

        F = k q₁q₂ / r₂₁²

we calculate the electric force of the other two particles on the charge q1

Charges q₁ and q₂

the distance between them is

          r₁₂ = y₁ -y₂

          r₁₂ = 0.30 + 0.30

          r₁₂ = 0.60 m

let's calculate

          F₁₂ = 9 10⁹ 2 10⁻⁶ 2 10⁻⁶ / 0.60 2

          F₁₂ = 1 10⁻¹ N

directed towards the positive side of the y-axis

Charges 1 and 3

Let's find the distance using the Pythagorean Theorem

             r₁₃ = RA [(0.40-0) 2 + (0-0.30) 2]

             r₁₃ = 0.50 m

            F₁₃ = 9 10⁹ 2 10⁻⁶ 4 10⁻⁶ / 0.50²

            F₁₃ = 1.697 10⁻² N

The direction of this force is on the line that joins the two charges (1 and 3), let's use trigonometry to find the components of this force

           tan θ = y / x

           θ = tan⁻¹ y / x

          θ = tan⁻¹ 0.3 / 0.4

           tea = 36.87º

    The angle from the positive side of the x-axis is

         θ ’= 180 - θ

        θ ’= 180 - 36.87

        θ ’= 143.13º

       sin143.13 = F_13y / F₁₃

           F_13y = F₁₃ sin 143.13

           F{13y} = 1.697 10⁻² sin 143.13

           F_13y = 1.0183 10⁻² N

            cos 143.13 = F_13x / F₁₃

           F₁₃ₓ = F₁₃ cos 143.13

           F₁₃ₓ = 1.697 10⁻² cos 143.13

           F₁₃ₓ = -1.357 10-2 N

Now we can find the components of the resultant force

          Fx = F13x + F12x

          Fx = -1,357 10-2 +0

          Fx = -1.357 10-2 N

          Fy = F13y + F12y

         Fy = 1.0183 10-2 + ​​1 10-1

          Fy = 0.110183 N

We use the Pythagorean theorem to find the modulus

         F = Ra (Fx2 + Fy2)

         F = RA [(1.357 10-2) 2 + 0.110183 2]

         F = 0.111015 N

Let's use trigonometry for the angles

         tan tea = Fy / Fx

          tea = tan-1 (0.110183 / -0.01357)

          tea = 1,448 rad

to find the angle about the positive side of the + x axis

           tea '= pi - 1,448

           Tea = 1.6936 rad

Answer:

Time : <u>7.96 s</u>

Distance Traveled : <u>357.8 m</u>  

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we first consider the accelerated motion of rocket. We will be using the subscript 1 for accelerated motion.

So, for accelerated motion, we have:

Acceleration = a₁ = 14.5 m/s²

Time Period = t₁ = 3.1 s

Initial Velocity = Vi₁ = 0 m/s    (Since, it starts from rest)

Final Velocity = Vf₁

Distance covered by sled during acceleration motion = s₁

Now, using 1st equation of motion:

Vf₁ = Vi₁ + (a₁)(t₁)

Vf₁ = 0 m/s + (14.5 m/s²)(3.1 s)

Vf₁ = 44.95 m/s

Now, using 2nd equation of motion:

s₁ = (Vi₁)(t) + (0.5)(a₁)(t₁)

s₁ = (0 m/s)(3.1 s) + (0.5)(14.5 m/s²)(3.1 s)

s₁ = 22.5 m

Now, we first consider the decelerated motion of rocket. We will be using the subscript 2 for decelerated motion.

So, for accelerated motion, we have:

Deceleration = a₂ = - 5.65 m/s²

Time Period = t₂ = ?

Initial Velocity = Vi₂ = Vf₁ = 44.95 m/s    (Since, decelerate motion starts, where accelerated motion ends)

Final Velocity = Vf₂ = 0 m/s    (Since, rocket will eventually stop)

Distance covered by sled during deceleration motion = s₂

Now, using 1st equation of motion:

Vf₂ = Vi₂ + (a₂)(t₂)

0 m/s = 44.95 m/s + (- 5.65 m/s²)(t₂)

t₂ = (44.95 m/s)/(5.65 m/s²)

<u>t₂ = 7.96 s</u>

Now, using 2nd equation of motion:

s₂ = (Vi₂)(t₂) + (0.5)(a₂)(t₂)

s₂ = (44.95 m/s)(7.96 s) + (0.5)(- 5.65 m/s²)(7.96 s)

s₂ = 357.8 m - 22.5 m

s₂ = 335.3 m

Thus, the total distance covered by sled will be:

Total Dustance = S = s₁ + s₂

S = 22.5 m + 335.3 m

<u>S = 357.8 m</u>

A torsional pendulum consists of a disk of mass 450 g and radius 3.5 cm, hanging from a wire. If the disk is given an initial an
Montano1993 [528]

To solve this problem we will use the kinematic equations of angular motion, starting from the definition of angular velocity in terms of frequency, to verify the angular displacement and its respective derivative, let's start:

\omega = 2\pi f

\omega = 2\pi (2.5)

\omega = 5\pi rad/s

The angular displacement is given as the form:

\theta (t) = \theta_0 cos(\omega t)

In the equlibrium we have to t=0, \theta(t) = \theta_0 and in the given position we have to

\theta(t) = \theta_0 cos(5\pi t)

Derived the expression we will have the equivalent to angular velocity

\frac{d\theta}{dt} = 2.7rad/s

Replacing,

\theta_0(sin(5\pi t))5\pi = 2.7

Finally

\theta_0 = \frac{2.7}{5\pi}rad = 9.848\°

Therefore the maximum angular displacement is 9.848°

The force of air resistance acts to oppose the motion of an object moving through the air. A ball is thrown upward and eventuall
ozzi

Answer:

For a (1) net force will be greater than the weight of the ball

For b (2) net force will be lesser than the weight of the ball

Explanation:

For (a):

For a linear motion of a system, one must have to understand, according to Newtons first law of motion, which is also known as law of inertia, a body which is at motion will continue to move or a body at rest will continue to rest until an external force is applied to it. In the given case, when ball goes upward, one thing is for sure, the net force is greater than the weight of the ball, because three forces are applied during upward motion:

gravity or weight which is pulling the ball downward,

air resistance, which is also acting downward as it is creating friction between ball and air molecules, so creating hindrance in upward motion

External force to throw ball upward

So

Net Force = Upward force - Air friction - Weight

Since ball is going upward, so net force is greater than both weight and air friction which are pulling ball downward.

For (b):

For a linear motion of a system, one must have to understand, according to Newtons first law of motion, which is also known as law of inertia, a body which is at motion will continue to move or a body at rest will continue to rest until an external force is applied to it. In the given case, when ball goes downward, one thing is for sure, the net force is lesser than the weight of the ball, because two forces are applied during downward motion:

gravity or weight which is pulling the ball downward,

air resistance, which is acting upward as it is creating friction between ball and air molecules, so creating hindrance in downward motion

So

Net Force = Weight - Air friction

Since ball is going downward, so weight is greater than net force which is in this case is air friction which is pulling ball upward.

Darina [25.2K]

(a) This is a freefall problem in disguise - when the ball returns to its original position, it will be going at the same speed but in the opposite direction. So the ball's final velocity is the negative of its initial velocity.

Recall that

v_f=v_i+at

We have v_f=-v_i, so that

-2v_i=at\implies-2\left(8\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)=\left(-2\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t\implies t=8\,\mathrm s

(b) The speed of the ball at the start and at the end of the roll are the same 8 m/s, so the average speed is also 8 m/s.

(c) The ball's average velocity is 0. Average velocity is given by \dfrac{v_i+v_f}2, and we know that v_f=-v_i.

(d) The position of the ball x_f at time t is given by

x_f=x_i+v_it+\dfrac12at^2

Take the starting position to be the origin, x_i=0. Then after 6 seconds,

x_f=\left(8\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)(6\,\mathrm s)+\dfrac12\left(-2\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(6\,\mathrm s)^2=42\,\mathrm m

so the ball is 42 m away from where it started.

We're not asked to say in which direction it's moving at this point, but just out of curiosity we can determine that too:

x_f-x_i=\dfrac{v_i+v_f}2t\implies42\,\mathrm m=\dfrac{8\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}+v_f}2(6\,\mathrm s)\implies v_f=6\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}

Since the velocity is positive, the ball is still moving up the incline.
