Answer:

D

Explanation:

Water temperature decreases; copper temperature increases. Heat energy moves from high to low. Heat energy will be transferred from the water to the copper.

An electric field from a charge has a magnitude of 1.5 × 104 N/C at a certain location that points inward. If another charge wit
zysi [14]

Answer:

-0.045 N, they will attract each other

Explanation:

The strength of the electrostatic force exerted on a charge is given by

F=qE

where

q is the magnitude of the charge

E is the electric field magnitude

In this problem,

q=3.0\cdot 10^{-6}C

E=-1.5\cdot 10^4 N/C (negative because inward)

So the strength of the electrostatic force is

F=(-3.0\cdot 10^{-6}C)(1.5\cdot 10^4 N/C)=-0.045 N

Moreover, the charge will be attracted towards the source of the electric field. In fact, the text says that the electric field points inward: this means that the source charge is negative, so the other charge (which is positive) is attracted towards it.

8) Find the X and Y component of 10degree vector that has 5N.
Deffense [45]

Answer:

Fx  = 4.92 [N]

Fy = 0.868 [N]

Explanation:

Let's take the 10 degrees as a measure from the horizontal component to the vector.

Thus taking the components in the X & y axes respectively:

Fx = 5*cos(10) = 4.92 [N]

Fy = 5*sin(10) = 0.868 [N]

Where c is a constant that depends on the initial gas pressure behind the projectile. The initial position of the projectile is
Ronch [10]

Complete Question

A gas gun uses high pressure gas tp accelerate projectile through the gun barrel.

If the acceleration of the projective is : a = c/s m/s​2

Where c is a constant that depends on the initial gas pressure behind the projectile. The initial position of the projectile is s= 1.5m and the projectile is initially at rest. The projectile accelerates until it reaches the end of the barrel at s=3m. What is the value of the constant c such that the projectile leaves the barrel with velocity of 200m/s?

Answer:

The value of the constant is  c = 28853.78 \ m^2 /s^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

         The acceleration is  a =  \frac{c}{s}\   m/s^2

         The  initial position of the projectile is s= 1.5m

         The final position of the projectile is s_f =  3 \ m

          The velocity is  v = 200 \ m/s

     Generally  time  =  \frac{ds}{dv}

   and  acceleration is a =  \frac{v}{time }

so

            a = v  \frac{dv}{ds}

 =>        vdv  =  a ds

             vdv  = \frac{c}{s}  ds

integrating both sides

           \int\limits^a_b  vdv  = \int\limits^c_d \frac{c}{s}  ds

Now for the limit

          a =  200 m/s

             b = 0 m/s  

         c = s= 3 m

          d =s_f= 1.5 m

So we have  

           \int\limits^{200}_{0}  vdv  = \int\limits^{3}_{1.5} \frac{c}{s}  ds

              [\frac{v^2}{2} ] \left | 200} \atop {0}} \right.  = c [ln s]\left | 3} \atop {1.5}} \right.

            \frac{200^2}{2}  =  c ln[\frac{3}{1.5} ]

=>           c = \frac{20000}{0.69315}

              c = 28853.78 \ m^2 /s^2

An elevator car weighs 5500 N. If the car accelerates upwards at a rate of 4.0 m/s2, what is the tension in the support cable li
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

Explanation:

The equation for this, since we are talking about weight on an elevator, is Newton's 2nd Law adjusted to fit our needs:

F_n=ma+w where the Normal Force needed to lift that elevator car is the tension. So the equation then becomes

T = ma + w where T is the tension in the cable to lift the elevator, m is the mass of the elevator (which we have to solve for), a is the acceleration of the elevator (positive since it's going up), and w is the weight of the elevator (which we have as 5500 N). Solving first for mass:

w = mg and

5500 =- m(10) so

m = 550 kg. Now we have what we need to solve for the tension:

T = 550(4.0) + 5500 and

T = 2200 + 5500 so

T = 7700 N
