Explanation:

a) I=\displaystyle \sum_{i}m_ir_i^2

where r_i is the distance of the mass m_i from the axis of rotation. When the axis of rotation is placed at the end of the rod, the moment of inertia is due only to one mass. Therefore,

I= mr^2 = (2\:kg)(3\:m)^2 = 18\:kg-m^2

b) When the axis of rotation is placed on the center of the rod, the moment is due to both masses and the radius r is 1.5 m. Therefore,

\displaystyle I= \sum_{i}m_ir_i^2 = 2(2\:kg)(1.5\:m)^2 = 9\:kg-m^2

The linear impulse delivered by the hit of a boxer is 202 N · s during the 0.244 s of contact. What is the magnitude of the aver
zlopas [31]

Answer: Magnitude of the average force exerted on the glove by the other boxer is 827.86 N (approximately 828 N).

Explanation: Impulse is defined as the force acting on an object for a short period or interval of time.

Mathematically it is given by the relation:

Impulse = Force \times Time

According to the numerical values given in the question, I = 202 Ns and T = 0.244 s

So, Force F = \frac{Impulse}{Time} = \frac{202}{0.244} = 827.86 N

Magnitude of the average force exerted on the glove by the other boxer is 827.86 N (approximately 828 N).

vlabodo [156]

a) Southward you need to apply right hand rule. If you close your hand to the east, your thumb will indicate south.

b) Given the equation for Magnetic Force

F= qVB

Replacing

F= (1.16*10^{-19})(1.17*10^5)(50*10^{-6})

F=9.36*10^{-19}

c) Given the second Newton's Law by

F_g = 1.67*10^{-27}*9.81

F_g = 1.64*10^{-26}

Given the electric force by,

F_e = 1.6*10^{-19}*1.5*10^2

F_e = 2.4*10^{-17}N

F=9.36*10^{-19}N

The charge per unit length on a long, straight filament is -92.0 μC/m. Find the electric field 10.0 cm above the filament.
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

E = 1.655 x 10⁷ N/C towards the filament

Explanation:

Electric field due to a line charge is given by the expression

E = [tex]\frac{\lambda}{2\pi\times\epsilon_0\times r}[/tex]

where λ is linear charge density of line charge , r is distance of given point from line charge and ε₀ is a constant called permittivity and whose value is

8.85 x 10⁻¹².

Putting the given values in the equation given above

E = \frac{92\times10^{-6}}{2\times3.14\times8.85\times10^{-12}\times10^{-1}}

E = 1.655 x 10⁷ N/C

A pendulum is used in a large clock. The pendulum has a mass of 2 kg. If the pendulum is moving at a speed of 2.9 m/s when it re

This is a classic example of conservation of energy. Assuming that there are no losses due to friction with air we'll proceed by saying that the total energy mus be conserved.
E_m=E_k+E_p
Now having information on the speed at the lowest point we can say that the energy of the system at this point is purely kinetic:
E_m=Ek=\frac{1}{2}mv^2
Where m is the mass of the pendulum. Because of conservation of energy, the total energy at maximum height won't change, but at this point the energy will be purely potential energy instead.
E_m=E_p
This is the part where we exploit the Energy's conservation, I'm really insisting on this fact right here but it's very very important, The totam energy Em was
E_M=\frac{1}{2}mv^2
It hasn't changed! So inserting this into the equation relating the total energy at the highest point we'll have:
E_p=mgh=E_m=\frac{1}{2}mv^2
Solving for h gives us:
h=\frac{v^2}{2g}.
It doesn't depend on mass!
