Physics

IRISSAK [1]2 years ago

Answer:

The magnitude of electric field is  22.58 N/C

Solution:

Given:

Force exerted in upward direction, \vec{F_{up}} = 3.50\times 10^{- 5} N

Charge, Q = - 1.55\micro C = - 1.55\times 10^{- 6} C

Now, we know by Coulomb's law,

F_{e} = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_{o}\frac{Qq}{R^{2}}

Also,

Electric field, E = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_{o}\frac{q}{R^{2}}

Thus from these two relations, we can deduce:

F = QE

Therefore, in the question:

\vec{E} = \frac{\vec F_{up}}{Q}

\vec{E} = \frac{3.50\times 10^{- 5}}{- 1.55\times 10^{- 6}}

\vec{E} = - 22.58 N/C

Here, the negative side is indicative of the Electric field acting in the opposite direction, i.e., downward direction.

The magnitude of the electric field is:

|\vec{E}| = 22.58\ N/C

A solid cylinder of mass M = 45 kg, radius R = 0.44 m and uniform density is pivoted on a frictionless axle coaxial with its sym
user100 [1]

Answer:

w_f = 1.0345 rad/s

Explanation:

Given:

- The mass of the solid cylinder M = 45 kg

- Radius of the cylinder R = 0.44 m

- The mass of the particle m = 3.6 kg

- The initial speed of cylinder w_i = 0 rad/s

- The initial speed of particle V_pi = 3.3 m/s

- Mass moment of inertia of cylinder I_c = 0.5*M*R^2

- Mass moment of inertia of a particle around an axis I_p = mR^2

Find:

- What is the magnitude of its angular velocity after the collision?

Solution:

- Consider the mass and the cylinder as a system. We will apply the conservation of angular momentum on the system.

                                     L_i = L_f

- Initially, the particle is at edge at a distance R from center of cylinder axis with a velocity V_pi = 3.3 m/s contributing to the initial angular momentum of the system by:

                                    L_(p,i) = m*V_pi*R

                                    L_(p,i) = 3.6*3.3*0.44

                                    L_(p,i) = 5.2272 kgm^2 /s

- While the cylinder was initially stationary w_i = 0:

                                    L_(c,i) = I*w_i

                                    L_(c,i) = 0.5*M*R^2*0

                                    L_(c,i) = 0 kgm^2 /s

The initial momentum of the system is L_i:

                                    L_i = L_(p,i) + L_(c,i)

                                    L_i = 5.2272 + 0

                                    L_i = 5.2272 kg-m^2/s

- After, the particle attaches itself to the cylinder, the mass and its distribution around the axis has been disturbed - requires an equivalent Inertia for the entire one body I_equivalent. The final angular momentum of the particle is as follows:

                                   L_(p,f) = I_p*w_f

- Similarly, for the cylinder:

                                   L_(c,f) = I_c*w_f

- Note, the final angular velocity w_f are same for both particle and cylinder. Every particle on a singular incompressible (rigid) body rotates at the same angular velocity around a fixed axis.

                                  L_f = L_(p,f) + L_(c,f)

                                  L_f = I_p*w_f + I_c*w_f

                                  L_f = w_f*(I_p + I_c)

-Where, I_p + I_c is the new inertia for the entire body = I_equivalent that we discussed above. This could have been determined by the superposition principle as long as the axis of rotations are same for individual bodies or parallel axis theorem would have been applied for dissimilar axes.

                                  L_i = L_f

                                  5.2272 = w_f*(I_p + I_c)

                                  w_f =  5.2272/ R^2*(m + 0.5M)

Plug in values:

                                  w_f =  5.2272/ 0.44^2*(3.6 + 0.5*45)

                                  w_f =  5.2272/ 5.05296

                                  w_f = 1.0345 rad/s

What happens when a resultant electric field exist in conductor​
klio [65]

Answer:

When an electric field exists in a conductor a current will flow.

This implies a voltage difference between two points on the conductor.

Electrostatics pertains to static charge distributions.

That means that an object such as a charged spherical conductor will be at the same potential (voltage) on both its outer and inner surfaces.

Astronauts use a centrifuge to simulate the acceleration of a rocket launch. The centrifuge takes 40.0 s to speed up from rest t
Vinvika [58]

Answer

Time period T = 1.50 s

time t = 40 s

r = 6.2 m

a)

Angular speed ω = 2π/T

                              = \dfrac{2\pi }{1.5}  

                              = 4.189 rad/s

Angular acceleration α = \dfrac{\omega}{t}

                                      = \dfrac{4.189}{40}

                                      = 0.105 rad/s²

Tangential acceleration a = r α = 6.2 x 0.105 = 0.651 m/s²

b)The maximum speed.

       v = 2πr/T

          = \dfrac{2\pi \times 6.2}{1.5}

          = 25.97 m/s

So centripetal acceleration.

        a = \dfrac{v^2}{r}

          = \dfrac{25.97^2}{6.2}

          =  108.781 m/s^2

          = 11.1 g    

in combination with the gravitation acceleration.

a_{total} = \sqrt{(11.1g)^2+g^2}

a_{total}= 11.145 g

What are the factors that effect the strength of a frictional force???
seropon [69]

If you write down the formula for friction, you will get an answer.

Ff = u * N               Where N is a push down force that an object experiences.

                              u (mu) is a constant and has no units

It may not be accelerating and still experience friction. A is not correct.

Color and Density will not affect the frictional force. B is not so.

Buoyant forces are a different thing altogether. Generally friction has nothing to do with them. C is incorrect.

The last one is your answer. Technically mg should be the answer and not mass, but the second part is correct.
