A 4.00-kg particle moves along the x axis. Its position varies with time according to x 5 t 1 2.0t 3, where x is in meters and t
White raven [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given equation is ,

x =t + 2 t³ ,

dx/dt = velocity ( v ) = 1 + 6 t²

a) kinetic energy = 1/2 m v² = .5 x 4 ( 1 + 6 t² )² = 2 ( 1 + 6 t²)²

b ) Acceleration = dv /dt = 12 t .

force( F ) = mass x acceleration = 4 x 12 t = 48 t

Power = force x velocity = 48 t x ( 1 + 6 t²). = 48 t + 288 t³ )

work done = ∫ F dx =∫ 48 t x( 1 + 6t² )dt ; =  [48t²/2 + 48 x 6 x t³ /3 = 24 t² + 96 t³ )]₀² =  864 J

A baseball is batted. It's a long fly ball. 4 seconds later the ball reaches the outfield 100 meters away and returns to the hei
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

25 m/s

Explanation:

First we should define the variables

T=4

Dx = 100

ay=-9.8

ax=0

We can use formula 1 from the BIG 5

x=(v+v0)t/2

By plugging in our variables we can get 100=4(v+v0)/2

Which is 50=v+v0

v=v0 since horizontal acceleration always equals zero

so 2v0 = 50

v0 = 25

An electron and a proton are held on an x axis, with the electron at x = + 1.000 m
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

  r2 = 1 m

therefore the electron that comes with velocity does not reach the origin, it stops when it reaches the position of the electron at x = 1m

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use conservation of energy

the electric potential energy is

          U = k \frac{q_1q_2}{r_{12}}

for the proton at x = -1 m

          U₁ =- k \frac{e^2 }{r+1}

for the electron at x = 1 m

          U₂ = k \frac{e^2 }{r-1}

starting point.

        Em₀ = K + U₁ + U₂

        Em₀ = \frac{1}{2} m v^2 - k \frac{e^2}{r+1} + k \frac{e^2}{r-1}

final point

         Em_f = k e^2 ( -\frac{1}{r_2 +1} + \frac{1}{r_2 -1})

   

energy is conserved

        Em₀ = Em_f

        \frac{1}{2} m v^2 - k \frac{e^2}{r+1} + k \frac{e^2}{r-1} = k e^2 (- \frac{1}{r_2 +1} + \frac{1}{r_2 -1})              

       

        \frac{1}{2} m v^2 - k \frac{e^2}{r+1} + k \frac{e^2}{r-1} = k e²(  \frac{2}{(r_2+1)(r_2-1)} )

we substitute the values

½ 9.1 10⁻³¹ 450 + 9 10⁹ (1.6 10⁻¹⁹)² [ - \frac{1}{20+1} + \frac{1}{20-1} ) = 9 109 (1.6 10-19) ²( \frac{2}{r_2^2 -1} )

          2.0475 10⁻²⁸ + 2.304 10⁻³⁷ (5.0125 10⁻³) = 4.608 10⁻³⁷ ( \frac{1}{r_2^2 -1} )

          2.0475 10⁻²⁸ + 1.1549 10⁻³⁹ = 4.608 10⁻³⁷     \frac{1}{r_2^2 -1}

          \frac{2.0475 \ 10^{-28} }{1.1549 \ 10^{-37} } = \frac{1}{r_2^2 -1}

          r₂² -1 = (4.443 10⁸)⁻¹

           

          r2 = \sqrt{1 + 2.25 10^{-9}}

          r2 = 1 m

therefore the electron that comes with velocity does not reach the origin, it stops when it reaches the position of the electron at x = 1m

Many minerals, such as silver, are good conductors of heat and electricity. How could technology use this property to help ident
Aleks [24]

Answer:

This property could be used to create technologically-advanced tools or machines that could easily locate the mineral deposits.

Explanation:

Mineral deposits are hard to find, unless you have the skill or the proper tools in locating them. This is the reason why many people are mining in order to explore the different areas where they could find these deposits.

If one would consider the property of minerals, such as being good conductors of heat and electricity,<u> then they could create a tool or machine that would aid in their exploration.</u> Inventors could probably come up with a sensitive detector which signals when it reaches an area of high heat and electric conductivity. Since most minerals such as <em>gold, silver, copper, galena, bornite </em>and the like have this property, then miners will have a lesser amount of time looking for them.

If this technology will be implemented, though, regulation policy must be strictly implemented because it might lead to<em> over-mining</em> thus leading to the depletion of mineral deposits.
