Answer:

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

K (spring constant) = 20N/m

e (extension/compression) = 0.25 m

F (force) =?

Using the formula F = Ke, the force can be obtained as follow:

F = Ke

F = 20 x 0.25

F = 5N

Express the vector R<br> B<br> in terms of A, B, C, and Ď, the edges of a<br> parallelogram.

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

R=0.5B+0.5C+2A+D

Explanation:

By the triangular law of vector addition

vector R= vector B- vector D

As A,B,C,D are edges of the parallelogram,

A is parallel to D but opposite in direction.

Therefore

$A = (-D)$ ; $A//D$ ;

$2A=-2D$

B is parallel to C and in same direction.

$B//C\\B=C\\$

$0.5B=0.5C\\$

$R= B-D;\\R= 0.5B+0.5B-D;\\R=0.5B+0.5C-D;\\R=0.5B+0.5C-2D+D;\\R=0.5B+0.5C+2A+D;$

The rocket is fired vertically and tracked by the radar station shown. When θ reaches 66°, other corresponding measurements give

Flauer [41]

Answer:

velocity = 1527.52 ft/s

Acceleration = 80.13 ft/s²

Explanation:

We are given;

Radius of rotation; r = 32,700 ft

Radial acceleration; a_r = r¨ = 85 ft/s²

Angular velocity; ω = θ˙˙ = 0.019 rad/s

Also, angle θ reaches 66°

So, velocity of the rocket for the given position will be;

v = rθ˙˙/cos θ

so, v = 32700 × 0.019/ cos 66

v = 1527.52 ft/s

Acceleration is given by the formula ;

a = a_r/sinθ

For the given position,

a_r = r¨ - r(θ˙˙)²

Thus,

a = (r¨ - r(θ˙˙)²)/sinθ

Plugging in the relevant values, we obtain;

a = (85 - 32700(0.019)²)/sin66

a = (85 - 11.8047)/0.9135

a = 80.13 ft/s²

A plate carries a charge of 3.8 UC, while a rod carries a charge of 1.9 C. How many electrons must be transferred from the plate

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

$N_{electrons}=Q_{transfered}/q_{electron}=5.94*10^{18}electrons$

Explanation:

The total charge is distributed over the two objects:

$Q_{total}/2=(3.8*10^{-6}C+1.9C)/2=0.9500019C\\$

The plate and the rod must have $Q_{total}/2\\$ . So the charge transferred from the plate to the rod is:

$Q_{transfered}=3.8*10^{-6}C-Q_{total}/2=3.8*10^{-6}C-0.9500019C=-0.9499981C\\$

Number of electrons:

$N_{electrons}=Q_{transfered}/q_{electron}=-0.9499981C/(-1.6*10^{-19}C)=5.94*10^{18}electrons$

An electron moving parallel to a uniform electric field increases its speed from 2.0 × 107 m/s to 4.0 × 107 m/s over a distance

jeka94

Answer:

$1.8\times 105 N/C$

Explanation:

We are given that

$u=2\times 10^7 m/s$

$v=4\times 10^7 m/s$

d=1.9 cm= $\frac{1.9}{100}=0.019 m$

Using 1m=100 cm

We have to find the electric field strength.

$v^2-u^2=2as$

Using the formula

$(4\times 10^7)^2-(2\times 10^7)^2=2a(0.019)$

$16\times 10^{14}-4\times 10^{14}=0.038a$

$0.038a=12\times 10^{14}$

$a=\frac{12}{0.038}\times 10^{14}=3.16\times 10^{16}m/s^2$

$q=1.6\times 10^{-19} C$

Mass of electron,m $=9.1\times 10^{-31} kg$

$E=\frac{ma}{q}$

Substitute the values

$E=\frac{9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 3.16\times 10^{16}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}$

$E=1.8\times 105 N/C$
