How do you calculate an object's displacement?

Physics

algol [13]3 years ago

Answer:

Displacement can be calculated by measuring the final distance away from a point, and then subtracting the initial distance. Displacement is key when determining velocity (which is also a vector). Velocity = displacement/time whereas speed is distance/time.

Magnetism/ magnetic field ana magnetic forces
katovenus [111]

Answer:

Magnetism is a physical phenomenon that manifests itself in a force acting between magnets or other magnetized or magnetisable objects, and a force acting on moving electric charges, such as in current-carrying cables. The force action takes place by means of a magnetic field, which is generated by the objects themselves or otherwise. There are natural and artificial magnets. All magnets have two poles called the north pole and the south pole. The north pole of one magnet repels the north pole of another magnet and attracts the south pole of another magnet; the same with south poles.

The definition of speed is (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance) .

So a unit of speed has to be (a unit of length) / (a unit of time) .

Here are several perfectly fine units of speed:

-- miles per hour

-- feet per second

-- meters per second

-- kilometers per hour

-- inches per second

-- centimeters per minute

-- yards per Century

-- furlongs per fortnight

-- nanometers per microsecond

-- Smoots per week

-- parsecs per millenium

The velocity of a ball changes from ‹ 9, −6, 0 › m/s to ‹ 8.96, −6.12, 0 › m/s in 0.02 s, due to the gravitational attraction of
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

a) a=(-2,-6,0)m/s^2, with a magnitude of 6.3m/s^2

b) \frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}=(-0.24,-0.72,0)Kgm/s^2, with a magnitude of 0.76Kgm/s^2

c) F=(-0.24,-0.72,0)N, with a magnitude of 0.76N

Explanation:

We have:

v_{ix}=9m/s, v_{iy}=-6m/s, v_{iz}=0m/s\\v_{fx}=8.96m/s, v_{fy}=-6.12m/s, v_{fz}=0m/s\\t=0.02s, m=0.12Kg

We can calculate each component of the acceleration using its definition a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}

a_x=\frac{v_{fx}-v_{ix}}{t} = \frac{(8.96m/s)-(9m/s)}{0.02s} =-2m/s^2\\a_y=\frac{v_{fy}-v_{iy}}{t} = \frac{(-6.12m/s)-(-6m/s)}{0.02s} =-6m/s^2\\a_y=\frac{v_{fz}-v_{iz}}{t} = \frac{(0m/s)-(0m/s)}{0.02s} =0m/s^2\\

The rate of change of momentum of the ball is \frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t} = \frac{\Delta mv}{\Delta t} = \frac{m\Delta v}{\Delta t} = ma

So for each coordinate:

\frac{\Delta p_x}{\Delta t}=-0.24Kgm/s^2\\\frac{\Delta p_y}{\Delta t}=-0.72Kgm/s^2\\\frac{\Delta p_z}{\Delta t}=0Kgm/s^2

And these are equal to the components of the net force since F=ma.

If magnitudes is what is asked:

a=\sqrt{a_x+a_y+a_z} =6.3m/s^2\\F=ma=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}=0.76N

<em>(N and </em>Kgm/s^2<em> are the same unit).</em>

A rotating flywheel has moment of inertia 18.0 kg⋅m^2 for an axis along the axle about which the wheel is rotating. Initially th
timama [110]

Answer:

The rotational kinetic energy takes 0.430 seconds to become half its initial value.

Explanation:

By the Principle of Energy Conservation and the Work-Energy Theorem we know that flywheel slow down due to the action of non-conservative forces (i.e. friction), the energy losses are equal to the change in the rotational kinetic energy. That is:

\Delta E = K_{1}-K_{2} (1)

Where:

\Delta E - Energy losses, measured in joules.

K_{1}, K_{2} - Initial and final rotational kinetic energies, measured in joules.

By definition of rotational kinetic energy, we expand the equation above:

\Delta E = \frac{1}{2}\cdot I\cdot (\omega_{1}^{2}-\omega_{2}^{2}) (2)

Where:

I - Moment of inertia of the flywheel, measured in kilograms per square meter.

\omega_{1}, \omega_{2} - Initial and final angular speed, measured in radians per second.

If we know that K_{1} = 30\,J, K_{2} = 15\,J and I = 18\,kg\cdot m^{2}, then the initial angular speed is:

K_{1} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot I \cdot \omega_{1}^{2} (3)

\omega_{1}=\sqrt{\frac{2\cdot K_{1}}{I} }

\omega_{1} = \sqrt{\frac{2\cdot (30\,J)}{18\,kg\cdot m^{2}} }

\omega_{1} \approx 1.825\,\frac{rad}{s}

\omega_{1}\approx 0.291\,\frac{rev}{s}

K_{2} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot I \cdot \omega_{2}^{2} (4)

\omega_{2}=\sqrt{\frac{2\cdot K_{2}}{I} }

\omega_{2} = \sqrt{\frac{2\cdot (15\,J)}{18\,kg\cdot m^{2}} }

\omega_{2} \approx 1.291\,\frac{rad}{s}

\omega_{2} \approx 0.205\,\frac{rev}{s}

Under the assumption that flywheel is decelerating uniformly, we get that the time taken for the flywheel to slowdown is:

t = \frac{\omega_{2}-\omega_{1}}{\alpha} (5)

If we know that \omega_{1}\approx 0.291\,\frac{rev}{s}, \omega_{2} \approx 0.205\,\frac{rev}{s} and \alpha = -0.200\,\frac{rev}{s^{2}}, then the time needed is:

t = \frac{0.205\,\frac{rev}{s}-0.291\,\frac{rev}{s}}{-0.200\,\frac{rev}{s^{2}} }

t = 0.43\,s

The rotational kinetic energy takes 0.430 seconds to become half its initial value.
