Artist 52 [7]2 years ago

Answer:

U = 0.413 J

Explanation:

the potential energy between two charges q1 and q2 is given by the following formula:

U=k\frac{q_1q_2}{r}    (1)

k: Coulomb's constant = 8.98*10^9 NM^2/C^2

q1: first charge = 4.6 μC = 4.6*10^-6 C

q2: second charge = 1.0 μC*10^-6 C

r: distance between charges = 10.0 cm = 0.10 m

You replace the values of all variables in the equation (1):

U=(8.98*10^9Nm^2/C^2)\frac{(4.6*10^{-6}C)(1.0*10^{-6}C)}{0.10m}=0.413\ J

Hence, the energy between charges is 0.413 J

Richard Julius once made a model plane that could travel a max speed of 110 m/s. Suppose the plane was held in a circular path b

Answer:

85.8 m/s

Explanation:

We know that the length of the circular path, L the plane travels is

L = rθ where r = radius of path and θ = angle covered

Now,its speed , v = dL/dt = drθ/dt = rdθ/dt + θdr/dt

where dθ/dt = ω = angular speed = v'/r where v' = maximum speed of plane and r = radius of circular path

Now, from θ = θ₀ + ωt where θ₀ = 0 rad, ω = angular speed  and t = time,

θ = θ₀ + ωt = 0 + ωt = ωt

So, v = rdθ/dt + θdr/dt

v = rω + ωtdr/dt

v = (r + tdr/dt)ω

v = (r + tdr/dt)v'/r

v = v' + tv'/r(dr/dt)

v = v'[1 + t(dr/dt)/r]

Given that v' = 110 m/s, t = 33.0s, r = 120 m and dr/dt = rate at which line is shortened = -0.80 m/s (negative since it is decreasing)

So, v = 110 m/s[1 + 33.0 s(-0.80 m/s)/120 m]

v = 110 m/s[1 + 11.0 s(-0.80 m/s)/40 m]

v = 110 m/s[1 + 11.0 s(-0.02/s)]

v = 110 m/s[1 - 0.22]

v = 110 m/s(0.78)

v = 85.8 m/s

Which of the following is NOT true? a. The higher the moment of inertia, the greater the resistance to changes in angular veloci
kaheart [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

The moment of inertia is the integral of the product of the squared distance by the mass differential. Is the mass equivalent in the rotational motion

a) True. When the moment of inertia is increased, more force is needed to reach acceleration, so it is more difficult to change the angular velocity that depends proportionally on the acceleration

b) True. The moment of inertia is part of the kinetic energy, which is composed of a linear and an angular part. Therefore, when applying the energy conservation theorem, the potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy, the rotational part increases with the moment of inertia, so there is less energy left for the linear part and consequently it falls slower

c) True. The moment of inertial proportional to the angular acceleration, when the acceleration decreases as well. Therefore, a smaller force can achieve the value of acceleration and the change in angular velocity. Consequently, less force is needed is easier

An experiment to measure the speed of light uses an apparatus similar to Fizeau's. The distance between the light source and the
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

2.88*10^{8} m/s

Explanation:

The speed of light is given by

c=\frac {2d}{t} and t=\frac {\theta}{\omega} hence

c=\omega\frac {2d}{\theta}

Speed of light is given by

c=900\times 2\pi(\frac {2\times 10}{\frac {2\pi}{2*800}}})=2.88*10^{8} m/s
