24 A uniform electric field of magnitude 1.1×104 N/C is perpendicular to a square sheet with sides 2.0 m long. What is the elect

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

$44,000 Nm^2/C$

Explanation:

The electric flux through a certain surface is given by (for a uniform field):

$\Phi = EA cos \theta$

where:

E is the magnitude of the electric field

A is the area of the surface

$\theta$ is the angle between the direction of the field and of the normal to the surface

In this problem, we have:

$E=1.1\cdot 10^4 N/C$ is the electric field

L = 2.0 m is the side of the sheet, so the area is

$A=L^2=(2.0)^2=4.0 m^2$

$\theta=0^{\circ}$ , since the electric field is perpendicular to the surface

Therefore, the electric flux is

$\Phi =(1.1\cdot 10^4)(4.0)(cos 0^{\circ})=44,000 Nm^2/C$

An airliner arrives at the terminal, and its engines are shut off. The rotor of one of the engines has an initial clockwise angu

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

(a) 1200 rad/s

The angular acceleration of the rotor is given by:

$\alpha = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i}{t}$

where we have

$\alpha = -80.0 rad/s^2$ is the angular acceleration (negative since the rotor is slowing down)

$\omega_f$ is the final angular speed

$\omega_i = 2000 rad/s$ is the initial angular speed

t = 10.0 s is the time interval

Solving for $\omega_f$ , we find the final angular speed after 10.0 s:

$\omega_f = \omega_i + \alpha t = 2000 rad/s + (-80.0 rad/s^2)(10.0 s)=1200 rad/s$

(b) 25 s

We can calculate the time needed for the rotor to come to rest, by using again the same formula:

$\alpha = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i}{t}$

If we re-arrange it for t, we get:

$t = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i}{\alpha}$

where here we have

$\omega_i = 2000 rad/s$ is the initial angular speed

$\omega_f=0$ is the final angular speed

$\alpha = -80.0 rad/s^2$ is the angular acceleration

Solving the equation,

$t=\frac{0-2000 rad/s}{-80.0 rad/s^2}=25 s$

A 14.0 gauge copper wire of diameter 1.628 mm carries a current of 12.0 mA . A) What is the potential difference across a 1.80 m

Serga [27]

Answer: a) 139.4 μV; b) 129.6 μV

Explanation: In order to solve this problem we have to use the Ohm law given by:

V=R*I whre R= ρ *L/A where ρ;L and A are the resistivity, length and cross section of teh wire.

Then we have:

for cooper R=1.71 *10^-8* 1.8/(0.001628)^2= 11.61 * 10^-3Ω

and for silver R= 1.58 *10^-8* 1.8/(0.001628)^2=10.80 * 10^-3Ω

Finalle we calculate the potential difference (V) for both wires:

Vcooper=11.62* 10^-3* 12 * 10^-3=139.410^-6 V

V silver= 10.80 10^-3* 12 * 10^-3=129.6 10^-6 V

A 52 kg child on a swing is travelling at 6 m/s . What is his gravitational potential energy if he has 1000 J of the mechanical

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is "64 J".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Mass,

m = 52 kg

Velocity,

v = 6 m/s

Mechanical energy,

= 1000 J

Now,

The gravitational potential energy will be:

⇒ $P.E=1000-\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$=1000-\frac{1}{2}\times 52\times (6)^2$

$=1000-26\times 36$

$=1000-936$

$=64 \ J$
