A particle initially located at the origin has an acceleration of = 1.00ĵ m/s2 and an initial velocity of i = 6.00î m/s. (a) Fin
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

a)     d = (6.00 t i ^ + 0.500 t²) m , b)   v = (6.00 i ^ + 1.00 t j ^) m / s

c) d = (24.00 i ^ + 8.00 j^ ) m , d)  v = (6.00 i ^ + 5 j^ ) m/s

Explanation:

This exercise is about kinematics in two dimensions

a) find the position of the particle on each axis

X axis

Since there is no acceleration on this axis, we can use the relation of uniform motion

       v = x / t

        x = v t

we substitute

        x = 6.00 t

Y Axis

on this axis there is an acceleration and there is no initial speed

         y = v₀ t + ½ a t²

         y = ½ at t²

we substitute

        y = ½ 1.00 t²

        y = 0.500 t²

in vector position is

       d = x i ^ + y j ^

       d = (6.00 t i ^ + 0.500 t²) m

b) x axis

as there is no relate speed is concatenating

       vₓ = v₀

       vₓ = 6.00 m / s

y Axis  

there is an acceleration and the initial speed is zero

         v_{y} = v₀ + a t

         v_{y} = a t

         v_{y} = 1.00 t

the velocity vector is

         v = vₓ i ^ + v_{y} j ^

         v = (6.00 i ^ + 1.00 t j ^) m / s

c) the coordinates for t = 4 s

        d = (6.00 4 i ^ + 0.50 4 2 j⁾

        d = (24.00 i ^ + 8.00 j^ ) m

 

x = 24.0 m

y = 8.00 m

d) the velocity of for t = 4 s

        v = (6 i ^ + 1 5 j ^)

         v = (6.00 i ^ + 5 j^ ) m/s

A ball is thrown down vertically with an initial speed of 20 m/s from a height of 60 m. Find (a) its speed just before it strike
vivado [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Ball is thrown downward:

initial velocity, u = - 20 m/s (downward)

height, h = - 60 m

Acceleration due to gravity, g = - 9.8 m/s^2 (downward)

(a) Let the speed of the ball as it hits the ground is v.

Use third equation of motion

v^{2}=u^{2}+2as

v^{2}=(-20)^{2}+2\times 9.8 \times 60

v = 39.69 m/s

(b) Let t be the time taken

Use First equation of motion

v = u + a t

- 39.69 = - 20 - 9.8 t

t = 2 second

Now the ball is thrown upwards:

initial velocity, u = 20 m/s (upward)

height, h = - 60 m

Acceleration due to gravity, g = - 9.8 m/s^2 (downward)

(c) Let the speed of the ball as it hits the ground is v.

Use third equation of motion

v^{2}=u^{2}+2as

v^{2}=(-20)^{2}+2\times 9.8 \times 60

v = 39.69 m/s

(d) Let t be the time taken

Use First equation of motion

v = u + a t

- 39.69 = + 20 - 9.8 t

t = 6.09 second

How many valence electrons are in alkali metals
tatuchka [14]
If you look on the periodic table you will see the top group elements depending on how the elements relate to each in the column. All of the elements in that column show they all have 1 electron in their valence shell. Some of the chemicals in that family or group are Sodium, Lithium, Potassium. The are very reactive because they only have one electron and what 7 more to become stable.

A 2.4 mm -diameter copper wire carries a 37 A current (uniform across its cross section). Determine the magnetic field at the su
cluponka [151]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply Ampere's circuital law to find out magnetic field . It is given as follows.

∫B.dl = μ₀ I , B is magnetic field , I is current ,  μ₀ is permeability .

Radius of the wire r = 1.2 x 10⁻³ m

magnetic field B will be circular in shape around the wire. If B is uniform

∫B.dl = B x 2πr  

B x 2πr  = μ₀ I

B = μ₀ I / 2πr

= 4π x 10⁻⁷ x 37 /2πx1.2 x 10⁻³

= 10⁻⁷ x 2x37 / 1.2 x 10⁻³

= 61.67 x 10⁻⁴ T

= 62  x 10⁻⁴ T
