23. While sliding a couch across a floor, Andrea and Jennifer exert forces F → A and F → J on the couch. Andrea’s force is due n

orth with a magnitude of 130.0 N and Jennifer’s force is 32° east of north with a magnitude of 180.0 N. (a) Find the net force in component form. (b) Find the magnitude and direction of the net force. (c) If Andrea and Jennifer’s housemates, David and Stephanie, disagree with the move and want to prevent its relocation, with what combined force F → DS should they push so that the couch does not move?

Answer:

a) (95.4 i^ + 282.6 j^) N , b) 298.27 N 71.3º and c) F' = 298.27 N θ = 251.4º

Explanation:

a) Let's use trigonometry to break down Jennifer's strength

sin θ = Fjy / Fj

cos θ = Fjx / Fj

Analyze the angle is 32º east of the north measuring from the positive side of the x-axis would be

T = 90 -32 = 58º

Fjy = Fj sin 58

Fjx = FJ cos 58

Fjx = 180 cos 58 = 95.4 N

Fjy = 180 sin 58 = 152.6 N

Andrea's force is

Fa = 130.0 j ^

We perform the summary of force on each axis

X axis

Fx = Fjx

Fx = 95.4 N

Axis y

Fy = Fjy + Fa

Fy = 152.6 + 130

Fy = 282.6 N

F = (95.4 i ^ + 282.6 j ^) N

b) Let's use the Pythagorean theorem and trigonometry

F² = Fx² + Fy²

F = √ (95.4² + 282.6²)

F = √ (88963)

F = 298.27 N

tan θ = Fy / Fx

θ = tan-1 (282.6 / 95.4)

θ = tan-1 (2,962)

θ = 71.3º

c) To avoid the movement they must apply a force of equal magnitude, but opposite direction

F' = 298.27 N

θ' = 180 + 71.3

θ = 251.4º

How long will it take a transverse wave to propagate from one end of the string to the other?

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

The time taken by a transverse wave to propagate from one end to another depends on the number of oscillation made by the wave itself. If the total number of oscillation of the wave is known, the time taken by the wave to propagate through can be determined.

Note that the term "period" is the time taken by a transverse wave to complete one oscillation. So if we know the number of oscillation made in one second by the wave and the total oscillation made, then we can know determine how long it will take a transverse wave to propagate from one end of the string to the other

Consider the uniform electric field E = (8.0ĵ + 2.0 ) ✕ 103 N/C. What is its electric flux (in N · m2/C) through a circular area

cluponka [151]

Answer:

5.09 x 10⁵ Nm²/C

Explanation:

The electric flux φ through a planar area is defined as the electric field Ε times the component of the area Α perpendicular to the field. i.e

φ = E A

From the question;

E = (8.0j + 2.0k) ✕ 10³ N/C

r = radius of the circular area = 9.0m

A = area of a circle = π r² [Take π = 3.142]

A = 3.142 x 9² = 254.502m²

Now, since the area lies in the x-y plane, only the z-component of the electric field is responsible for the electric flux through the circular area.

Therefore;

φ = (2.0) x 10³ x 254.502

φ = 5.09 x 10⁵ Nm²/C

The electric flux is 5.09 x 10⁵ Nm²/C

(a) What is the escape speed on a spherical asteroid whose radius is 500. km and whose gravitational acceleration at the surface

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

a) v= 1732.05m/s

b) d=250000m

c) v= 1414.214m/s

Explanation:

Notation

M= mass of the asteroid

m= mass of the particle moving upward

R= radius

v= escape speed

G= Universal constant

h= distance above the the surface

Part a

For this part we can use the principle of conservation of energy. for the begin the initial potential energy for the asteroid would be $U_i =-\frac{GMm}{R}$ .

The initial kinetic energy would be $\frac{1}{2}mv^2$ . The assumption here is that the particle escapes only if is infinetely far from the asteroid. And other assumption required is that the final potential and kinetic energy are both zero. Applying these we have:

$-\frac{GMm}{R}+\frac{1}{2}mv^2=0$ (1)

Dividing both sides by m and replacing $\frac{GM}{R}$ by $a_g R$

And the equation (1) becomes:

$-a_g R+\frac{1}{2} v^2=0$ (2)

If we solve for v we got this:

$v=\sqrt{2 a_g R}=\sqrt{2x3\frac{m}{s^2}x500000m}=1732.05m/s$

Part b

When we consider a particule at this surface at the starting point we have that:

$U_i=-\frac{GMm}{R}$

$K_i=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

Considering that the particle is at a distance h above the surface and then stops we have that:

$U_f=-\frac{GMm}{R+h}$

$K_f=0$

And the balance of energy would be:

$-\frac{GMm}{R}+\frac{1}{2}mv^2 =-\frac{GMm}{R+h}$

Dividing again both sides by m and replacing $\frac{GM}{R}$ by $a_g R^2$ we got:

$-a_g R+\frac{1}{2}v^2 =-\frac{a_g R^2}{R+h}$

If we solve for h we can follow the following steps:

$R+h=-\frac{a_g R^2}{-a_g R+\frac{1}{2}v^2}$

And subtracting R on both sides and multiplying by 2 in the fraction part and reordering terms:

$h=\frac{2a_g R^2}{2a_g R-v^2}-R$

Replacing:

$h=\frac{2x3\frac{m}{s^2}(500000m)^2}{2(3\frac{m}{s^2})(500000m)-(1000m/s)^2}- 500000m=250000m$

Part c

For this part we assume that the particle is a distance h above the surface at the begin and start with 0 velocity so then:

$U_i=-\frac{GMm}{R+h}$

$K_i=0$

And after the particle reach the asteroid we have this:

$U_f=-\frac{GMm}{R}$

$K_f=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

So the balance of energy would be:

$-\frac{GMm}{R+h}=-\frac{GMm}{R}+\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

Replacing again $a_g R^2$ instead of GM and dividing both sides by m we have:

$-\frac{a_g R^2}{R+h}=-a_g R+\frac{1}{2}v^2$

And solving for v:

$a_g R-\frac{a_g R^2}{R+h}=\frac{1}{2}v^2$

Multiplying both sides by two and taking square root:

$v=\sqrt{2a_g R-\frac{2a_g R^2}{R+h}}$

Replacing

$v=\sqrt{2(3\frac{m}{s^2})(500000m)-\frac{2(3\frac{m}{s^2}(500000m)^2}{500000+1000000m}}=1414.214m/s$
