Answer

Yes there is a force called Inertia.

Explanation:

Every moving vehicle and paasenger have inertia,a moving car have unbalanced forces and a passenger seat also apply friction which helps during gradual car slow down.When a brake is suddenly applied,the friction force of the seat of the passenger couldnot stop the passenger because of its inertia.

What is a moment of a force
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

In physics and mechanics, torque is the rotational equivalent of linear force. It is also referred to as the moment, moment of force, rotational force or turning effect, depending on the field of study. The concept originated with the studies by Archimedes of the usage of levers

A proton traveling at 17.6° with respect to the direction of a magnetic field of strength 3.28 mT experiences a magnetic force o
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

a) The proton's speed is 5.75x10⁵ m/s.

b) The kinetic energy of the proton is 1723 eV.  

Explanation:

a) The proton's speed can be calculated with the Lorentz force equation:

F = qv \times B = qvBsin(\theta)     (1)          

Where:

F: is the force = 9.14x10⁻¹⁷ N

q: is the charge of the particle (proton) = 1.602x10⁻¹⁹ C

v: is the proton's speed =?

B: is the magnetic field = 3.28 mT

θ: is the angle between the proton's speed and the magnetic field = 17.6°

By solving equation (1) for v we have:

v = \frac{F}{qBsin(\theta)} = \frac{9.14 \cdot 10^{-17} N}{1.602\cdot 10^{-19} C*3.28 \cdot 10^{-3} T*sin(17.6)} = 5.75 \cdot 10^{5} m/s

Hence, the proton's speed is 5.75x10⁵ m/s.

b) Its kinetic energy (K) is given by:

K = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

Where:

m: is the mass of the proton = 1.67x10⁻²⁷ kg

K = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} = \frac{1}{2}1.67 \cdot 10^{-27} kg*(5.75 \cdot 10^{5} m/s)^{2} = 2.76 \cdot 10^{-16} J*\frac{1 eV}{1.602 \cdot 10^{-19} J} = 1723 eV  

Therefore, the kinetic energy of the proton is 1723 eV.

I hope it helps you!

Accelerating charges radiate electromagnetic waves. Calculate the wavelength of radiation produced by a proton of mass mp moving
Iteru [2.4K]

Explanation:

Let m_p is the mass of proton. It is moving in a circular path perpendicular to a magnetic field of magnitude B.

The magnetic force is balanced by the centripetal force acting on the proton as :

\dfrac{mv^2}{r}=qvB

r is the radius of path,

r=\dfrac{mv}{qB}

Time period is given by :

T=\dfrac{2\pi r}{v}

T=\dfrac{2\pi m_p}{qB}

Frequency of proton is given by :

f=\dfrac{1}{T}=\dfrac{qB}{2\pi m_p}

The wavelength of radiation is given by :

\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}

\lambda=\dfrac{2\pi m_pc}{qB}

So, the wavelength of radiation produced by a proton is \dfrac{2\pi m_pc}{qB}. Hence, this is the required solution.

A 103 kg horizontal platform is a uniform disk of radius 1.71 m and can rotate about the vertical axis through its center. A 68.
Andreyy89

Answer:

I_{total}=220.64 kg*m^{2}

Explanation:

The moment of inertia of the system is equal to the each population and the platform inertia so

Inertia disk

I_{disk}=\frac{1}{2}*m_{disk}*(r_{p})^{2}

Inertia person

I_{p}=\frac{1}{2}*m_{p}*(r_{p})^{2}

Inertia dog

I_{d}=\frac{1}{2}*m_{d}*(r_{d})^{2}

The Inertia of the system is the sum of each mass taking into account that all exert the force of inertia:

I_{total}=I_{disk}+I_{p}+I_{d}

I_{total}=\frac{1}{2}*103kg*(1.71)^{2}+\frac{1}{2}*68.9kg*(1.09)^{2}+\frac{1}{2}*27.7kg*(1.45)^{2}

I_{total}=220.64 kg*m^{2}
