Q. Tom and Zoe make a string telephone. They use two empty tin cans joined by a piece of string. Tom and Zoe are 5 m apart. Tom

talks quietly into one tin can, and Zoe holds the other tin can to her ear. If they keep the string taut, the sound of Tom's voice travels along the string.
How does the sound travel along the string to Zoe?

A disk with radius R and uniform positive charge density s lies horizontally on a tabletop. A small plastic sphere with mass M a
Yanka [14]

Answer:

a. F = Qs/2ε₀[1 - z/√(z² + R²)] b.  h =  (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)R/√[1 - (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²]

Explanation:

a. What is the magnitude of the net upward force on the sphere as a function of the height z above the disk?

The electric field due to a charged disk with surface charge density s and radius R at a distance z above the center of the disk is given by

E = s/2ε₀[1 - z/√(z² + R²)]

So, the net force on the small plastic sphere of mass M and charge Q is

F = QE

F = Qs/2ε₀[1 - z/√(z² + R²)]

b. At what height h does the sphere hover?

The sphere hovers at height z = h when the electric force equals the weight of the sphere.

So, F = mg

Qs/2ε₀[1 - z/√(z² + R²)] = mg

when z = h, we have

Qs/2ε₀[1 - h/√(h² + R²)] = mg

[1 - h/√(h² + R²)] = 2mgε₀/Qs

h/√(h² + R²) = 1 - 2mgε₀/Qs

squaring both sides, we have

[h/√(h² + R²)]² = (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²

h²/(h² + R²) = (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²

cross-multiplying, we have

h² = (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²(h² + R²)

expanding the bracket, we have

h² = (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²h² + (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²R²

collecting like terms, we have

h² - (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²h² = (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²R²

Factorizing, we have

[1 - (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²]h² = (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²R²

So, h² =  (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²R²/[1 - (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²]

taking square-root of both sides, we have

√h² =  √[(1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²R²/[1 - (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²]]

h =  (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)R/√[1 - (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²]

A ring of diameter 7.70 cm is fixed in place and carries a charge of 5.00 mC uniformly spread over its circumference. (a) How mu
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

3.974 Joule

Explanation:

Diameter of ring = 7.7 cm

a = Distance from the center = d/2 = 3.85 cm = 0.0385 m

Q = Charge = 5 mC

q = Charge to move = 3.4 mC

k = Coulomb constant = 9×10⁹ Nm²/C²

Work done will be equal to Potential energy when mass is at center

U=\frac{kQq}{a}\\\Rightarrow U=\frac{9\times 10^9\times 5\times 10^{-6}\times 3.4\times 10^{-6}}{0.0385}=3.974\ J

∴ Work to move a tiny 3.4 mC charge from very far away to the center of the ring is 3.974 Joule

The momentum of an object is determined to be 7.2 x 10-3 cm kg x m/s. Express this as provided or use any equivalent unit. How i
Leno4ka [110]

Complete Question:

The momentum of an object is determined to be 7.2 × 10-3 kg⋅m/s. Express this quantity as provided or use any equivalent unit. (Note: 1 kg = 1000 g).

Answer:

7.2 gm/s.

Explanation:

Momentum can be defined as the multiplication (product) of the mass possessed by an object and its velocity. Momentum is considered to be a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.

Mathematically, momentum is given by the formula;

Momentum = mass * velocity

Given the following data;

Momentum = 7.2 * 10^-3 kgm/s

1 kg = 1000 g

Substituting the unit in kilograms with grams, we have;

Momentum = 7.2 * 10^-3 * 1000 gm/s

<em>Momentum = 7.2 gm/s. </em>

In 1 km races, runner 1 on track 1 (with time 2 min, 28.13 s) appears to be faster than runner 2 on track 2 (2 min, 28.48 s). ho
Murrr4er [49]
We are given with a velocity-distance-time kinematic problem given the different times of two runners and is asked for the difference in distances the runner has ran in the track. we use the formula v= d/t where d is the distance of running, t is time and v is the velocity of the runner. 

First runner, 
v = d/t = 1000 m / (120+28.13s ) = 6.750826976 m/s
Second runner
Using the same velocity we determine d2.
v = d2/t2 = d2 / (120+28.48s) = 6.750826976 m/s ; d2 = 1002.362789

distance of running track is the difference of the two distance achieved by the runners, delta d= d2 - d = 2.362789 m

What are the disadvantages of friction ?
lawyer [7]
In general? Well one example could be that if you owned an ice rink and somehow the ice had friction, you wouldn't be able to slide around on it any more to skate because the motion between one solid (your feet) and another (the ice) would increase. An effect of friction is heat, but my mixtape already fire so whats that even matter tbh.
