Answer:

A) t = 29.3 s

B) V = 58.56 ft/s

C) a_net = 2.3 ft/s²

Explanation:

A) The formula for radial acceleration is given as;

a_c = V²/R

We are given;

Radius;R = 350 ft

So, a_c = V²/350

Where V is velocity

Tangential acceleration;a_t = 2 ft/s²

Formula for net acceleration is;

a_net = √((a_c)² + (a_t)²)

We are given a_net = 10 ft/s²

Thus;

10 = √(V²/350)² + (2²)

10² = V⁴/350² + 4

100 - 4 = V⁴/350²

96 × 350² = V⁴

V = 58.56 ft/s

Now, formula for angular velocity is;

ω = V/r

ω = 58.56/350

ω = 0.1673 rad/s

Angular acceleration is given by;

α = a_t/r

α = 2/350

α = 0.00571 rad/s²

Time needed will be gotten from the formula;

t = ω/α

t = 0.1673/0.00571

t = 29.3 s

B) we are told total acceleration is 10 ft/s², thus it's the same as velocity gotten earlier which is 58.56 ft/s

C) we are told that the speed is now 20 ft/s

Thus;

a_c = 20²/350

a_c = 1.1429 ft/s²

Since a_net = √((a_c)² + (a_t)²)

We are given a_t = 2 ft/s²

Thua;

a_net = √(1.1429² + 2²)

a_net = √5.30622041

a_net = 2.3 ft/s²

Two uncharged metal spheres, spaced 25.0 cm apart, have a capacitance of 26.0 pF. How much work would it take to move 12.0 nC of
viktelen [127]

Answer:

W=2.76\times 10^{-6}\ J

Explanation:

Given that,

The distance between two spheres, r = 25 cm = 0.25 m

The capacitance, C = 26 pF = 26×10⁻¹² F

Charge, Q = 12 nC = 12 × 10⁻⁹ C

We need to find the work done in moving the charge. We know that, work done is given by :

U=\dfrac{Q^2}{2C}

Put all the values,

U=\dfrac{(12\times 10^{-9})^2}{2\times 26\times 10^{-12}}\\\\U=2.76\times 10^{-6}\ J

So, the work done is 2.76\times 10^{-6}\ J.

A 0.90-kg falcon is diving at 28.0 m/s at a downward angle of 35° . It catches a 0.325-kg pigeon from behind in midair. What is
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

22.11 m / s

Explanation:

The falcon catches the prey from behind means both are flying in the same direction ( suppose towards the left )

initial velocity of falcon = 28 cos 35 i - 28 sin 35 j  

( falcon was flying in south east direction making 35 degree from the east )

momentum = .9 ( 28 cos 35 i - 28 sin 35 j  )

= 20.64 i - 14.45 j

initial velocity of pigeon

= 7 i

initial momentum = .325 x 7i

= 2.275 i

If final velocity of composite mass of falcon and pigeon be V

Applying law of conservation of momentum

( .9 + .325) V = 20.64 i - 14.45 j +2.275 i

V = ( 22.915 i - 14.45 j ) / 1.225

= 18.70 i - 11.8 j

magnitude of V

= √ [  (18.7 )² + ( 11.8 )²]

= 22.11 m / s

Why do we feel the force of gravity from the Earth but we don’t feel the force of gravity from the moon?
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The gravitational force on the moon is less than on Earth because the strength of gravity is determined by an object's mass. The bigger the object, the bigger the gravitational force. Gravity is pretty much everywhere. We just feel it in different ways depending on our state of motion.

Explanation:

Hope this helped!!

A singly charged positive ion has a mass of 3.46 × 10−26 kg. After being accelerated through a potential difference of 215 V the
jasenka [17]

Answer:

1.8 cm

Explanation:

m = mass of the singly charged positive ion = 3.46 x 10⁻²⁶ kg

q = charge on the singly charged positive ion = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

\Delta V =Potential difference through which the ion is accelerated = 215 V

v = Speed of the ion

Using conservation of energy

Kinetic energy gained by ion = Electric potential energy lost

(0.5) m v^{2} = q \Delta V\\(0.5) (3.46\times10^{-26}) v^{2} = (1.6\times10^{-19}) (215)\\(1.73\times10^{-26}) v^{2} = 344\times10^{-19}\\v = 4.5\times10^{4} ms^{-1}

r = Radius of the path followed by ion

B = Magnitude of magnetic field = 0.522 T

the magnetic force on the ion provides the necessary centripetal force, hence

qvB = \frac{mv^{2} }{r} \\qB = \frac{mv}{r}\\r =\frac{mv}{qB}\\r =\frac{(3.46\times10^{-26})(4.5\times10^{4})}{(1.6\times10^{-19})(0.522)}\\r = 0.018 m \\r = 1.8 cm
