You release a block from the top of a long, slippery inclined plane of length l that makes an angle θ with the horizontal. The m

agnitude of the block's acceleration is gsin(θ).
1- For an x axis pointing down the incline and having its origin at the release position, derive an expression for the potential energy of the block-Earth system as a function of x. Suppose that the gravitational potential energy is measured relative to the ground at the bottom of the incline, UG(x=l)=0.
Express your answer in terms of g and the variables m, l, x, and θ.
(U^G=?)
2-
Use the expression you derived in the previous part to determine the speed of the block at the bottom of the incline. (Vx,f=?)
Express your answer in terms of g and the variables m, l, and θ.

Answer:

potential enrgy   U = m g L sin θ

speed     V = √(2g L sin θ)

Explanation:

The expression for the gravitational potential energy of a body is

                    U = mg Y - mg Yo

Where Y give us a constant initial energy from which the differences are measured, for general simplicity it is selected as zero, Yo= 0

What we find an expression for height, let's use trigonometry

                       sin  θ= Y / L

                       Y = l sin θ

   We substitute in the power energy equation

                     U = m g L sin θ

                         

2. The mechanical energy of the system is conserved, so we will write the mechanical energy at two points the highest and the lowest

Highest           Em = U

Lower              Em = K

                         U = K

                         m g L sin θ = ½ m v²

                         V = √(2g L sin θ)

A -0.06 charge that moves downward is in a uniform electric field with a strengthened of 200 N/C. What is the magnitude and dire
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

The magnitude of the force is 12 N Upwards

Explanation:

The force on a positive charge will be in the same direction as the field, but the force on a negative charge will be in the opposite direction to the field. Thus the direction of the force is upward.

Given;

magnitude of charge, q = 0.06 C

magnitude of electric field, E = 200 N/C

The magnitude of the force is given by;

F = qE

F = 0.06 x 200 N/C

F = 12 N Upwards

Therefore, the magnitude of the force is 12 N Upwards

A 1.2 nf parallel-plate capacitor has an air gap between its plates. Its capacitance increases by 3.0 nf when the gap is filled
Damm [24]

Answer:

2.5

Explanation:

The capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor filled with dielectric is given by

C=kC_0

where

k is the dielectric constant

C_0 is the capacitance of the capacitor without dielectric

In this problem,

C_0=1.2 nF is the capacitance of the capacitor in air

C=3.0 nF is the capacitance with the dielectric inserted

Solving the equation for k, we find

k=\frac{C}{C_0}=\frac{3.0 nF}{1.2 nF}=2.5

ly charged particles are held 24 x 103m apart and then released from rest. The initial acceleration of the first particle is obs
inessss [21]

Answer:

Part a)

m_2 = 4.9 \times 10^7 kg

Part b)

q_1 = q_2 = 5312.6 C

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that both charge particles will exert equal and opposite force on each other

so here the force on both the charges will be equal in magnitude

so we will have

F = m_1a_1 = m_2a_2

here we have

6.3 \times 10^7(7) = m_2(9)

now we have

m_2 = 4.9 \times 10^7 kg

Part b)

Now for the force between two charges we can say

F = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

now we have

(6.3 \times 10^7)(7) = \frac{(9\times 10^9)q^2}{(24\times 10^3)^2}

now we have

q_1 = q_2 = 5312.6 C

A scientist is examining an unknown solid. Which procedure would most likely help determine a chemical property of the substance
Neporo4naja [7]
<span>procedure would most likely help determine a chemical property of the substance is : exposing it to a flame to see if it catches on fire Chemical property is the characteristic that a substance has that differntiate it with another substance. The most common charatcteristics that most scientists wanted to know are : - It's flamability - It's radioactivity - Its toxicity By throwing the object into fire, we will easily find out these 3 characteristics</span>
