An ice cube of mass 50.0 g can slide without friction up and down a 25.0 degree slope. The ice cube is pressed against a spring

at the bottom of the slope, compressing the spring 0.100 m The spring constant is 25.0 N/m When the ice cube is released, how far will it travel up the slope before reversing direction?
Notice that all the initial spring potential energy was transformed into gravitational potential energy. If you compressed the spring to a distance of 0.200 m, how far up the slope will an identical ice cube travel before reversing directions?

Answer:

a) $s = 0.603\,m$ , b) $s = 2.412\,m$

Explanation:

a) The system ice cube-spring is modelled by means of the Principle of Energy Conservation. Let assume that height at the bottom is zero:

$U_{g} = U_{k}$

$m\cdot g \cdot s\cdot \sin \theta = \frac{1}{2}\cdot k \cdot x^{2}$

$s = \frac{k\cdot x^{2}}{2\cdot m\cdot g \cdot \sin \theta}$

$s = \frac{(25\,\frac{N}{m} )\cdot (0.1\,m)^{2}}{2\cdot (0.05\,kg)\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot \sin 25^{\textdegree}}$

$s = 0.603\,m$

b) The distance travelled by the ice cube is:

$s = \frac{(25\,\frac{N}{m} )\cdot (0.2\,m)^{2}}{2\cdot (0.05\,kg)\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot \sin 25^{\textdegree}}$

$s = 2.412\,m$

Answer:

A) at x =0.1m, distance it will travel up the slope before reversing direction = 0.603m

B) at x =0.2m, distance it will travel up the slope before reversing direction = 2.412m

Explanation:

A) First of all, the formula for Elastic potential energy is given as;

P.E = (1/2)kx²

where:

P.E= elastic potential energy ( J )

k = spring constant ( N/m )

x = spring extension or compression (m)

From the question, we are given;

mass of ice cube (m) = 50g = 0.05 kg

angle of ramp slope (θ) = 25.0°

compression of the spring (x) = 0.1m

spring constant (k =) 25.0 N/m

From conservation of energy, we know that;

Elastic Potential Energy = Gravitational Potential Energy

Thus;

(1/2)kx² = mgh

From the free body diagram i attached, it is clear that h/d = sin 25°

h = d sin25

Thus, plugging in the relevant values, we have;

(1/2)(25)(0.1)² = 0.05 x 9.81 x d x sin 25

0.125 = 0.4905 x 0.4226 x d

d = 0.125/(0.4905 x 0.4226) = 0.603m

B) if the spring is now compressed to a distance of 0.2m, x = 0.2m

Thus; (1/2)kx² = mgh will now be;

(1/2)(25)(0.2)² = 0.05 x 9.81 x d x sin 25

0.5 = 0.4905 x 0.4226 x d

d = 0.5/(0.4905 x 0.4226) = 2.412m

Average velocity is given by the ratio of total displacement /total time taken in order to do that
thus it will be

A force platform is a tool used to analyze the performance of athletes measuring the vertical force that the athlete exerts on t

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

a. $I=981.34 N*s$

b. $v_f=3.96 m/s$

c. $v_{f1}=3.63m/s$

d. $y_f=0.673m$

Explanation:

Given: $m=67kg$ , $h=0.720m$ , $0$

a.

$I=\int\limits^{t_1}_{t_2} {F(t)} \, dt$

$F(t)=9200*t-11500t^2$

$I=\int\limits^{0.8s}_{0s}{9200*t-11500*t^2} \, dt$

$I=4600*t^2-3833.3*t^3|(0.80,0)$

$I=2944-1962.66=981.35$

$I=981.34 N*s$

b.

$v_f^2=v_i^2+a*y'$

Starting from the rest

$v_f^2=0+2*9.8m/s^2*0.80s$

$v_f^2=15.68$

$v_f=\sqrt{15.68m^2/s^2}=3.96 m/s$

c.

$I_{total}=p_f$

$I_1-m*g*d=m*v_{f1}-m*v_f$

$981.34-67kg*9.8m/s^2*0.720=67.0kg*v_{f1}-67.0kg*(-3.96m/s)$

Solve to vf

$v_{f1}=3.63m/s$

d.

$v_f^2=v_i^2+2*a*y_f'$

$y_f'=v_i/2*a =(3.63m/s)^2/2*9.8m/s^2$

$y_f=0.673m$

If the voltage across the plates is increasing at the rate of 220 V/s, what is the displacement current in the capacitor

Lelechka [254]

Complete Question

A parallel-plate capacitor has square plates 20 cm on a side and 0.50 cm apart. If the voltage across the plates is increasing at the rate of 220 V/s, what is the displacement current in the capacitor?

Answer:

The value is $I = 1.416*10^{-8} \ A$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The length and breath of the square plate is $l = b = 20 \ cm = 0.2 \ m$

The distance of separation between each plate is $k = 0.50 \ cm = 0.005 \ m$

The rate of voltage increase is $\frac{dV}{dt} = 200 \ V/s$

Generally the charge on the plate is mathematically represented as

$Q = CV$

Now C is the capacitance of the capacitor which is mathematically represented as

$C = \frac{\epsilon_o * A}{k}$

Here A is the cross-sectional area which is mathematically represented as

$A = l^2$

=> $A = 0.2^2$

=> $A = 0.04 \ m^2$

So

$C = \frac{8.85 *10^{-12} * 0.04}{0.005}$

$C = 7.08*10^{-11} \ F$

Now the change of the charge flowing through the plates with time is mathematically represented as

$\frac{d Q}{dt} = C \frac{dV}{dt}$

So

$\frac{d Q}{dt} = 7.08 *10^{-11} * 200$

$\frac{d Q}{dt} = 1.416*10^{-8}$

Generally $\frac{d Q}{dt} = \ current \ i.e \ I$

So

$I = 1.416*10^{-8} \ A$

A single-turn square loop of side L is centered on the axis of a long solenoid. In addition, the plane of the square loop is per

Monica [59]

Answer:

(A) $\Phi_{\rm B} = 4.9\times 10^{-4}$

(B) $\Phi_{\rm B} = 1.1\times 10^{-5}$

(C) $\Phi_{\rm B} = 1.1\times 10^{-5}$

Explanation:

The magnetic flux is equal to the area multiplied by the magnetic field passes through that area.

$\Phi_{\rm B} = \vec{B}\vec{A} = BA\cos{\theta}$

Since the loop is perpendicular to the axis of the solenoid, cosine term is equal to 1.

The magnetic field created by a solenoid can be found by Ampere's Law:

$\int \vec{B}d\vec{l} = \mu_0 I_{enc}$

The integral in the left-hand side of the equation is unnecessary if we choose the imaginary Amperian loop a rectangle whose one side is inside the solenoid and the other side is outside. Let us denote the length of the loop which is inside the solenoid as 'd'.

$Bd = \mu_0 I_{enc}\\B = \frac{\mu_0 (2.8\times 1350d)}{d} = \mu_0 (3.78\times 10^3)$

Here, the length of the loop 'd' is multiplied by 1350 (turns per meter) to find the number of turns per 'd'. Each turn carries a current of 2.8 A.

Part A:

The area of the loop with side length L = 2.75 cm is

$A = 4\times 2.75 \times 10^{-2} = 0.11 ~{\rm m^2}$

$\Phi_{\rm B} = BA = 415.8\mu_0 = 4.89\times 10^{-4}$

Part B:

When L = 5.6 cm, the area of the loop is greater than the area of the solenoid. Since the magnetic field is only present inside the solenoid, the magnetic field will only go through the area of the solenoid.

$\Phi_{\rm B} = BA = B\pi r^2 = \mu_0(3780)\pi (2.8\times 10^{-2})^2 = 9.31\mu_0 = 1.11\times 10^{-5}$

Part C:

When L is greater than the diameter of the solenoid, the magnetic flux is constant and equal to the magnetic field times the area of the solenoid. So, the flux is equal to the flux in Part B.
