While driving, your car has an initial position of 3.2 m, an initial velocity of -8.4 m/s, and
KIM [24]

Answer:

The position of the car at t = 1.5 s is at -8.1625 meters

Explanation:

The initial position of the car is 3.2 meters

The initial velocity is -8.4 m/s

The constant acceleration is 1.1 m/s²

We need to find the final position of the car at the time t = 1.5 seconds

The displacement <em>s</em> = final position - initial position

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}, where <em>u</em> is the initial velocity, <em>a</em> is the

constant acceleration and <em>t</em> is the time

So we can find the final velocity by using the rule:

final position - initial position = ut+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}

initial position = 3.2 meters , u = -8.4 m/s , a = 1.1 ²m/s , t = 1.5 s

Substitute these values in the rule

final position - 3.2 = (-8.4)(1.5)+\frac{1}{2}(1.1)(1.5)^{2}

final position - 3.2 = -12.6 + 1.2375

final position - 3.2 = -11.3625

add 3.2 for both sides

final position = -8.1625

<em>That means the car is at 8.1625 meters in opposite direction</em>

<em>The position of the car at t = 1.5 s is at -8.1625 meters </em>

Consider a uniformly charged sphere of radius Rand total charge Q. The electric field Eout outsidethe sphere (r≥R) is simply tha
AlexFokin [52]

1) Electric potential inside the sphere: \frac{Q}{8\pi \epsilon_0 R}(3-\frac{r^2}{R^2})

2) Ratio Vcenter/Vsurface: 3/2

3) Find graph in attachment

Explanation:

1)

The electric field inside the sphere is given by

E=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Qr}{R^3}

where

\epsilon_0=8.85\cdot 10^{-12}F/m is the vacuum permittivity

Q is the charge on the sphere

R is the radius of the sphere

r is the distance from the centre at which we compute the field

For a radial field,

E(r)=-\frac{dV(r)}{dr}

Therefore, we can find the potential at distance r by integrating the expression for the electric field. Calculating the difference between the potential at r and the potential at R,

V(R)-V(r)=-\int\limits^R_r  E(r)dr=-\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R^3}\int r dr = \frac{-Q}{8\pi \epsilon_0 R^3}(R^2-r^2)

The potential at the surface, V(R), is that of a point charge, so

V(R)=\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R}

Therefore we can find the potential inside the sphere, V(r):

V(r)=V(R)+\Delta V=\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R}+\frac{-Q}{8\pi \epsilon_0 R^3}(R^2-r^2)=\frac{Q}{8\pi \epsilon_0 R}(3-\frac{r^2}{R^2})

2)

At the center,

r = 0

Therefore the potential at the center of the sphere is:

V(r)=\frac{Q}{8\pi \epsilon_0 R}(3-\frac{r^2}{R^2})\\V(0)=\frac{3Q}{8\pi \epsilon_0 R}

On the other hand, the potential at the surface is

V(R)=\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R}

Therefore, the ratio V(center)/V(surface) is:

\frac{V(0)}{V(R)}=\frac{\frac{3Q}{8\pi \epsilon_0 R}}{\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R}}=\frac{3}{2}

3)

The graph of V versus r can be found in attachment.

We observe the following:

- At r = 0, the value of the potential is \frac{3}{2}V(R), as found in part b) (where V(R)=\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R})

- Between r and R, the potential decreases as -\frac{r^2}{R^2}

- Then at r = R, the potential is V(R)

- Between r = R and r = 3R, the potential decreases as \frac{1}{R}, therefore when the distance is tripled (r=3R), the potential as decreased to 1/3 (\frac{1}{3}V(R))

When a mass of 0.350 kg is attached to a vertical spring and lowered slowly, the spring stretches 12.0 cm. The mass is now displ
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

period of oscillations is 0.695 second

Explanation:

given data

mass m = 0.350 kg

spring stretches x = 12 cm = 0.12 m

to find out

period of oscillations

solution

we know here that force

force = k × x   .........1

so force = mg =  0.35 (9.8)  = 3.43 N

3.43 = k × 0.12

k = 28.58 N/m

so period of oscillations is

period of oscillations = 2π × \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }   ................2

put here value

period of oscillations = 2π × \sqrt{\frac{0.35}{28.58} }  

period of oscillations = 0.6953

so period of oscillations is 0.695 second

Two ropes have equal length and are stretched the same way. The speed of a pulse on rope 1 is 1.4 times the speed on rope 2. Par
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

m1/m2 = 0.51

Explanation:

First to all, let's gather the data. We know that both rods, have the same length. Now, the expression to use here is the following:

V = √F/u

This is the equation that describes the relation between speed of a pulse and a force exerted on it.

the value of "u" is:

u = m/L

Where m is the mass of the rod, and L the length.

Now, for the rod 1:

V1 = √F/u1 (1)

rod 2:

V2 = √F/u2 (2)

Now, let's express V1 in function of V2, because we know that V1 is 1.4 times the speed of rod 2, so, V1 = 1.4V2. Replacing in the equation (1) we have:

1.4V2 = √F/u1 (3)

Replacing (2) in (3):

1.4(√F/u2) = √F/u1 (4)

Now, let's solve the equation 4:

[1.4(√F/u2)]² = F/u1

1.96(F/u2) =F/u1

1.96F = F*u2/u1

1.96 = u2/u1 (5)

Now, replacing the expression of u into (5) we have the following:

1.96 = m2/L / m1/L

1.96 = m2/m1 (6)

But we need m1/m2 so:

1.96m1 = m2

m1/m2 = 1/1.96

m1/m2 = 0.51
