How are energy, work ang power related?

A car travels 13 km in a southeast direction and then 16 km 40 degrees north of east. What is the car's resultant direction?

murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

21.48 km 2.92° north of east

Explanation:

To find the resultant direction, we need to calculate a sum of vectors.

The first vector has module = 13 and angle = 315° (south = 270° and east = 360°, so southeast = (360+270)/2 = 315°)

The second vector has module 16 and angle = 40°

Now we need to decompose both vectors in their horizontal and vertical component:

horizontal component of first vector: 13 * cos(315) = 9.1924

vertical component of first vector: 13 * sin(315) = -9.1924

horizontal component of second vector: 16 * cos(40) = 12.2567

vertical component of second vector: 16 * sin(40) = 10.2846

Now we need to sum the horizontal components and the vertical components:

horizontal component of resultant vector: 9.1924 + 12.2567 = 21.4491

vertical component of resultant vector: -9.1924 + 10.2846 = 1.0922

Going back to the polar form, we have:

$module = \sqrt{horizontal^2 + vertical^2}$

$module = \sqrt{460.0639 + 1.1929}$

$module = 21.4769$

$angle = arc\ tangent(vertical/horizontal)$

$angle = arc\ tangent(1.0922/21.4491)$

$angle = 2.915\°$

So the resultant direction is 21.48 km 2.92° north of east.

In Millikan's experiment, an oil drop of radius 1.362 μm and density 0.888 g/cm3 is suspended in chamber C when a downward-point

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

The charge on the oil drop is 3e

Explanation:

F = qE

Where;

F is the applied force in Newton

E is the electric field potential N/C

q is charge in C

Given;

Radius, r = 1.362 μm = 1.362 X 10⁻⁶ m

density, ρ = 0.888 g/cm³ = 0.888 X 10³ kg/m³

Electric field potential = 1.92 ✕ 10⁵ N/C

F =mg

mass of the oil drop = density, ρ X volume of the oil drop

volume of the oil drop (spherical) = (4/3)πr³ = 1.3333π(1.362 X 10⁻⁶)³

⇒ volume of the oil drop = 10.584 X 10⁻¹⁸ m³

mass of the oil drop = 0.888 X 10³ (kg/m³) X 10.584 X 10⁻¹⁸ (m³)

⇒ mass of the oil drop = 9.399 X 10⁻¹⁵ kg

⇒ F =mg = 9.399 X 10⁻¹⁵ kg X 9.8 = 9.21 X10⁻¹⁴ N

F = qE

q = F/E

q = (9.21 X10⁻¹⁴)/(1.92 ✕ 10⁵) = 4.797 X 10⁻¹⁹ C

In terms of e

1e = 1.6 X10⁻¹⁹ C

= (4.797 X 10⁻¹⁹ C)/(1.6 X10⁻¹⁹ C) = 3e

Therefore, the charge on the oil drop is 3e

What should be the angle between the transmission axes of the polarizers if it is desired that one-tenth of the incident intensi

NNADVOKAT [17]

The angle between the transmission axes of the polarizers if it is desired that one-tenth of the incident intensity be transmitted, ∝ = 63.435°

We'll assume that $I_{0}$ represents the incident light's intensity. Two polarizers are provided to us, but the first polarizer's angle is not disclosed. The incident light in situations like this needs to be unpolarized. This is due to the fact that, regardless of angle, the transmitted intensity via the polarizer is reduced by half for unpolarized light:
