The time (t) it will take for the train to reach to Grenoble is the quotient when the distance (d) is divided by the speed (s). That is,
                                       t = d / s
Substituting the known values,
                                       t = 480 km / 180 km/h
                                      t = 2.667 h
Thus, it will take approximately 2.7 h to reach Grenoble. The answer is letter D.

A particle of mass m moves under the influence of a force given by F = (−kx + kx3/α2) where k and α are positive constants. a) F
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) F = (-kx + kx³/a²)

intensity of field

I = F / m

=  (-kx + kx³/a²) / m

If U be potential function

- dU / dx =  (-kx + kx³/a²) / m

U(x)  = ∫  (kx - kx³/a²) / m dx

= k/m ( x²/2 - x⁴/4a²)

b )

For equilibrium points , U is either maximum or minimum .

dU / dx = x - 4x³/4a² = 0

x = ± a.

dU / dx = x - x³/a²

Again differentiating

d²U / dx² = 1 - 3x² / a²

Put the value of x = ± a.

we get

d²U / dx²  = -2 ( negative )

So at x = ± a , potential energy U is maximum.

c )

U =  k/m ( x²/2 - x⁴/4a²)

When x =0 , U = 0

When x=  ± a.

U is maximum

So the shape of the U-x curve is like a bowl centered at x = 0

d ) Maximum potential energy

put x = a or -a in

U(max)  =  k/m ( x²/2 - x⁴/4a²)

= k/m ( a² / 2 - a⁴/4a²)

= k/m ( a² / 2 - a²/4)

a²k / 4m

This is the maximum total energy where kinetic energy is zero.

Consider a disk of radius 4.9 cm, having a uniformly distributed charge of +6.1 μC. The value of the Coulomb constant is 8.98755
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

the electric field is 42.8×10^6 N/C

Explanation:

let k be the coulomb constant, Q be the charge distribution , R be the radius of the disk and x be the distance from the center.

k = 8.98755×10^9 N×m^2/c^2

Q = 6.1×10^-6 C

R = 4.9×10^-2 m

x = 3.1×10^-3 m

Two parallel plates that are initially uncharged are separated by 1.2 mm. What charge must be transferred from one plate to the
Gnoma [55]

Answer: 55.52 *10^-6 C= 55.52 μC

Explanation: In order to solve this question we have to take into account the following expressions:

potential energy stired in a capacitor is given by:

U=Q^2/(2*C)  where Q and C are the charge and capacitance of the capacitor.

then we have:

Q^2= 2*C*U=

C=εo*A/d where A and d are the area and separation of the parallel plates capacitor

Q^2=2*εo*A*U/d=2*8.85*10^-12*1.9*10^-5*11*10^3/(1.2*10^-3)=

=55.52 *10^-6C

A water balloon is dropped out of a fifth floor window and hits an unsuspecting person below 4.0 seconds later. The window is ap
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

80 meters high

Explanation:

The velocity of the balloon would be g*t (I won't calculate, but will us this later)

We know that the kinetic energy at the bottom equals the potential at the top.

KE = PE

1/2 * m * v^2 = m * g * h

1/2 * m * (g * t)^2 = m * g * h (substitution)

1/2 * m * g^2 * t^2 = m * g * h

1/2 * g * t^2 = h (simplification by dividing the commons between both sides)

h = 1/2 * 9.81 * 4^2

h = 78.48 m (roughly 80 m)

A circular loop of wire with 10 turns, radius 0.241 m and resistance 0.235 Ohms is connected to a 13.1 V power supply. The magne
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Given Information:  

Resistance of circular loop = R = 0.235 Ω 

Radius of circular loop = r = 0.241 m

Number of turns = n = 10

Voltage = V = 13.1 V

Required Information:  

Magnetic field = B = ?  

Answer:  

Magnetic field = 0.00145 T

Explanation:  

In a circular loop of wire with n number of turns and radius r and carrying a current I induces a magnetic field B

B = μ₀nI/2r

Where μ₀= 4πx10⁻⁷ is the permeability of free space  and current in the loop is given by

I = V/R

I = 13.1/0.235

I = 55.74 A

B = 4πx10⁻⁷*10*55.74/2*0.241

B = 0.00145 T

Therefore, the magnetic field at the center of this circular loop is 0.00145 T
