After the box comes to rest at position x1, a person starts pushing the box, giving it a speed v1. When the box reaches position

x2 (where x2>x1), how much work Wp has the person done on the box? Assume that the box reaches x2 after the person has accelerated it from rest to speed v1. Express the work in terms of m, v0, x1, x2, and v1.

Answer:

w_p = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2+\frac{1mv_0^2}{2x_1}(x_1-x_2)

Explanation:

First, the box goes from position x=0 to x=x1, so, the work made by the friction is calculated as:

-F_f(x_1) = \frac{1}{2}mV^2 -\frac{1}{2}mv_0^2

where F_f is the force of friction, x_1 the displacement, m the mass, V is the speed in rest and v_0 the initial speed.

V is equal to zero, so:

F_f(x_1)=\frac{1}{2}mv_0^2

it means that the force of friction F_f is equal to:

F_f = \frac{1mv_0^2}{2x_1}

On the other hand, when the box goes from position x=x1 to x=x2, the work-energy theorem said that:

-F_f(x_1-x_2)+w_p = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2-\frac{1}{2}mV^2

Where w_p is the work done by the person.

Then, solving for w_p:

-F_f(x_1-x_2)+w_p = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2

w_p = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2+F_f(x_1-x_2)

Finally, replacing F_f by \frac{1mv_0^2}{2x_1}, we get:

w_p = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2+\frac{1mv_0^2}{2x_1}(x_1-x_2)

C1=4F, C2=4F, C3=2F, C4=4F, C5= 9.2 F. Calculate the equivalent capacitance
grin007 [14]

The equivalent capacitance between A and B points is 2.5F.

<h3>What is parallel plate capacitor?</h3>

The two parallel plates placed at a distance apart used to store charge when electric supply is on.

The capacitance of a capacitor is given by

C = ε₀ A/d

From the given circuit C1, C2 and C3, C4 are in parallel  C1=4F, C2=4F, C3=2F, C4=4F, C5= 9.2 F

C1, C2 = 4 +4 =8F

C3, C4 = 2 +4 =6F

Now , all capacitors are in series.

Total equivalent capacitance is
1 / Ceq = 1/ 8 +1/6 +1/ 9.2

Ceq = 2.5 F

Thus,  the equivalent capacitance between A and B points is 2.5F.

An observer sitting on shore sees a canoe traveling 5.0 m/s east, and a sailboat traveling 15.0 m/s west. What is the velocity o
Dovator [93]

Answer:

Vs/c = 20 [m/s]

Explanation:

This is a problem of relative velocities, as velocity is a vector we can use addition or subtraction of vectors for the solution.

We are asked for the velocity of the sailboat with respect to an observer located in the canoe.

V_{s/c}=V_{sailboat}-V_{canoe}\\V_{s/c}=15-(-5)\\V_{s/c}=20[m/s]

Why is the speed of the canoe negative?, it is negative because the canoe moves in the opposite direction to the sailboat.

What is the power through a device with a resistance of 100 ohms if a current of 8 A is running through it?
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

6400 W (or) 6.4 KW

Explanation:

Formula we use,

→ P = I²R

Let's solve for the power of device,

→ P = I²R

→ P = (8)² × 100

→ P = 64 × 100

→ [ P = 6400 W ]

Hence, the power is 6400 W.
