A 398-kg boat is sailing 14.0° north of east at a speed of 1.50 m/s. 23.0 s later, it is sailing 33.0° north of east at a speed

of 4.40 m/s. During this time, three forces act on the boat: a 32.8-N force directed 14.0° north of east (due to an auxiliary engine), a 20.5-N force directed 14.0° south of west (resistance due to the water), and (due to the wind). Find the (a) the magnitude and (b) direction of the force . Express the direction as an angle with respect to due east.

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall represent speed in vector form

First speed

v₁ = 1.5 cos 14 i + 1.5 sin 14 j

= 1.455 i + 0.363 j

v₂ = 4.4 cos 33 i + 4.4 sin 33 j

= 3.69 i + 2.39 j

v₂ - v₁

3.69 i + 2.39 j - 1.455 i - 0.363 j

= 2.235 i + 2.027 j

acceleration

= v₂ - v₁ / time

= ( 2.235 i + 2.027 j ) / 23

= .097 i + .088 j

force = mass x acceleration

= 398 x ( .097 i + .088 j )

= 38.6 i + 35.02 j

Magnitude of force F

F² = 38.6² + 35.02²

F = 52.11 N

Tan θ = 35.02 / 38.6

θ = 42° north of east.

For an object with a given mass on Earth, calculate the weight of the object with the mass equal in magnitude to the number repr

leonid [27]

<u>Answer:</u> The weight of the object is 29.4 N

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the weight of the object, we use the equation:

$W=m\times g$

where,

m = mass of the object = 3 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = $9.8m/s^2$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$W=3kg\times 9.8m/s^2\\\\W=29.4N$

Hence, the weight of the object is 29.4 N

An electron is released from rest at the negative plate of a parallel plate capacitor. The charge per unit area on each plate is

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

v = 1.15*10^{7} m/s

Explanation:

given data:

charge/ unit area $= \sigma = 1.99*10^{-7} C/m^2$

plate seperation = 1.69*10^{-2} m

we know that

electric field btwn the plates is $E = \frac{\sigma}{\epsilon}$

force acting on charge is F = q E

Work done by charge q id $\Delta X =\frac{ q\sigma \Delta x}{\epsilon}$

this work done is converted into kinectic enerrgy

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 =\frac{ q\sigma \Delta x}{\epsilon}$

solving for v

$v = \sqrt{\frac{2q\Delta x}{\epsilon m}$

$\epsilon = 8.85*10^{-12} Nm2/C2$

$v = \sqrt{\frac{2 1.6*10^{-19}1.99*10^{-7}*1.69*10^{-2}}{8.85*10^{-12} *9.1*10^{-31}}$

v = 1.15*10^{7} m/s

What equation describes conservation of charge?

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

The equation which describes conservation of charge is $Q_{initial} - Q_{final } = 0$

Explanation:

The law of conservation charge states that for an isolated system that sum of initial charges is equal to sum of final charges, that is the total charge is conserved.

let the sum of initial charges = $Q_{initial}$

let the sum of the final charges = $Q_{final}$

$Q_{initial } = Q_{final}\\\\Q_{initial } - Q_{final} = 0$

Therefore, the equation which describes conservation of charge is $Q_{initial} - Q_{final } = 0$

A man pushes his child in a grocery cart. The total mass of the cart and child is 30.0 kg. If the force resisting the carts moti

-BARSIC- [3]

The force applied by the man is 60 N

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by applying Newton's second law, which states that:

$\sum F = ma$ (1)

where

$\sum F$ is the net force acting on the child+cart

m is the mass of the child+cart system

a is their acceleration

In this problem, we have:

m = 30.0 kg is the mass

$a=1.50 m/s^2$

And there are two forces acting on the child+cart system:

The forward force of pushing, F
The force resisting the cart motion, R = 15.0 N

Therefore we can write the net force as

$\sum F = F -R$

where R is negative since its direction is opposite to the motion

So eq.(1) can be rewritten as

$F-R=ma$

And solving for F,

$F=ma+R=(30.0)(1.50)+15.0=60 N$
