There are 2 concentric cylinders. These cylinders are very long with length L. The inner cylinder has a radius R1 and is a solid

OLga [1]

To get the charge along the inner cylinder, we use Gauss Law
E = d R1/2εo
For the outer cylinder the charge can be calculated using
E = d R2^2/2εoR1
where d is the charge density
Use these two equations to get the charge in between the cylinders and the capacitance between them.

Michael Jordan, el célebre basquetbolista, ganó el torneo de clavadas de la NBA en 1988. Para lograr la hazaña saltó 1.35 metros

kozerog [31]

(a) 0.40 s

First of all, let's find the initial speed at which Jordan jumps from the ground.

The maximum height is h = 1.35 m. We can use the following equation:

$v^2-u^2=2gh$

where

v = 0 is the velocity at the maximum height

u is the initial velocity

$g=-9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

Solving for u,

$u=\sqrt{-2gh}=\sqrt{-2(-9.8)(1.35)}=5.14 m/s$

The time needed to reach the maximum height can now be found by using the equation

$v=u+gt$

Solving for t,

$t=\frac{v-u}{g}=\frac{0-5.14}{-9.8}=0.52s$

Now we can find the velocity at which Jordan reaches a point 20 cm below the maximum height, so at a height of

h' = 1.35 - 0.20 = 1.15 m

Using again the equation

$v'^2-u^2=2gh'$

we find

$v'=\sqrt{u^2+2gh}=\sqrt{5.14^2+2(-9.8)(1.15)}=1.97 m/s$

And the corresponding time is

$t'=\frac{v'-u}{g}=\frac{1.97-5.14}{-9.8}=0.32s$

So the time to go from h' to h is

$\Delta t = t-t'=0.52-0.32=0.20 s$

And since we have also to take into account the fall down (after Jordan reached the maximum height), which is symmetrical, we have to multiply this time by 2 to get the total time of permanence in the highest 20 cm of motion:

$\Delta t=2\cdot 0.20 = 0.40 s$

(b) 0.08 s

This part is easier since we need to calculate only the velocity at a height of h' = 0.20 m:

$v'^2-u^2=2gh'$

$v'=\sqrt{u^2+2gh}=\sqrt{5.14^2+2(-9.8)(0.20)}=4.74 m/s$

And the corresponding time is

$t'=\frac{v'-u}{g}=\frac{4.74-5.14}{-9.8}=0.04s$

So this is the time needed to go from h=0 to h=20 cm; again, we have to take into account the motion downwards, so we have to multiply this by 2:

$\Delta t = 2\cdot 0.04 =0.08 s$

A car travels 40 miles in 30 minutes.

lukranit [14]

Answer:

(a)Average velocity ,v =128.74 Km/hr

(b)Kinetic Energy , K=958546.875 Joule

(c)Distance, s=268.8m

(d)Acceleration, a= - 2.38 $m/s^2$

<u>Explanation</u>:

<u>Given</u>:

Distance travelled = 40 miles

Time taken = 30 minutes.

(A) The average velocity in kilometres/hour

Converting 40 miles into km ,

we know that,

1 mile = 1.60934

40 miles = 40 x 1.60934

so 40 miles = 64.3738 Km

similarly converting 30 minutes into hours

1 minute = $\frac{1}{60}hours$

30 minute = $\frac{30}{60}hours$

30 minute = $\frac{1}{2}hours$

Now

Average velocity = $\frac{Speed}{time}$

Substituting Values,

Average velocity = $\frac{64.3738}{\frac[1}{2}}$

Average velocity = $64.3738 \times 2$

Average velocity =128.74 Km/hr

(B) If the car weighs 1.5 tons, what is its If the car weighs 1.5 tons, what is its kinetic energy in joules (Note: you will need to convert your velocity to m/s)? in joules (Note: you will need to convert your velocity to m/s)?

Converting 1.5 tons into kg we get

1 ton = 1000 kg

so 1.5 ton =1500 kg

converting velocity to m/s

$128.74 \times \frac{5}{18}$

=>35.75 m/s----------------------------------------------------------(1)

kinetic energy K= $\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

Substituting the values,

K= $\frac{1}{2}1500(35.75)^2$

K= $\frac{1}{2}1500(1278.06)$

K= $\frac{1500 \times (1278.06)}{2}$

K= $\frac{1917093.75}{2}$

K=958546.875 Joule---------------------------------------------(2)

(c)When the driver applies the brake, it takes 15 seconds to stop. How far does the car travel (in meters) while stopping

Lets use Distance formula,

$S= ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

Substituting the known values,

$s= ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

$s= (37.75)(15)+\frac{1}{2}a(15)^2$

$s=566.25+\frac{1}{2}a(225)$

$s=566.25+\frac{(225a)}{2}$ -------------------------------------(3)

(D) What is the average acceleration of the car (in m/s2) during braking?

Using the formula

v=u +at

re arranging the formula we get,

$a = \frac{v - u}{t}$

Substituting the values

$a = \frac{0 - 35.75}{15}$

$a = \frac{- 35.75}{15}$

a= - 2.38 $m/s^2$ ----------------------------------------(4)

Now substituting 4 in 3 we get

$s=566.25+\frac{(225( - 2.38)}{2}$

$s=566.25+\frac{-535.5}{2}$

$s=536.25-267.75$

s=268.8m--------------------------------------------------------------(5)

Use this table of a school bus during morning pickups to calculate its average speed between 0 h and 2.340 h.

Gelneren [198K]

The average speed between 0 h and 2.340 h is 6.97 Km/h

Average speed is defined as the total distance travelled divided by the total time taken to cover the distance.

$Average \: speed = \frac{total \: distance}{total \: time} \\ \\$

With the above formula, we can obtain the average speed between 0 h and 2.340 h as illustrated below:

Total time = 2.340 – 0 = 2.340 h
Total distance = 16.3 – 0 = 16.3 Km
Average speed =?

$Average \: speed = \frac{total \: distance}{total \: time} \\ \\Average \: speed = \frac{16.3}{2.340} \\ \\ Average \: speed = 6.97 \: Km/h \\ \\$

A sinusoidal wave has the following wave function: y(x,t) = (2.5 m) sin((3.0 m ) x - (24 s-')t + Tt/2] What is the frequency of

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Frequency of the wave is 3.8 hertz.

Explanation:

It is given that, the sinusoidal wave has following wave equation as :

$y(x,t)=(2.5\ m)sin[(3\ m^{-1})x-(24\ s^{-1})t+\pi/2]$

The general equation for the sinusoidal wave is :

$y=A\ sin(kx-\omega t+\phi)$

Where

A is the amplitude

k is the constant

$\omega$ is the angular frequency

$\phi$ is the phase difference

Since, $\omega=24\ s^{-1}$

$2\pi f=24$

$f=\dfrac{24}{2\pi}=3.81\ Hz$

f = 3.8 Hz

So, the frequency of the wave is 3.8 hertz. Hence, this is the required solution.
