Answer:

1) The acceleration is in the SW direction.

2) It is not possible to make a conclusion regarding the direction of the velocity.

Explanation:

1)

  • According Newton's 2nd Law, the acceleration is directly proportional to the net force applied, and has the same direction than it.
  • Since the net force points in the SW direction, so does  the acceleration.

2)

  • By definition, acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity with respect to time.
  • Since acceleration is a vector, it can represent a change in  the magnitude of the velocity (if it speeds up or if it is slows down), along the same direction (NW or SW in this case), and/or a change in the direction, as in the circular movement case, in which acceleration and speed are perpendicular each other.
  • So, with the information that we have, we can't say in which direction the velocity points.

A thin, rectangular sheet of metal has mass M and sides of length a and b. Find the moment of inertia of this sheet about an axi
slega [8]
We divide the thin rectangular sheet in small parts of height b and length dr. All these sheets are parallel to b. The infinitesimal moment of inertia of one of these small parts is
dI =r^2*dm
where dm =M(b*dr)/(ab)
Now we find the moment of inertia by integrating from -a/2 to a/2
The moment of inertia is
I= \int\limits^{-a/2}_{a/2} {r^2*dm} = M \int\limits^{-a/2}_{a/2} r^2(b*dr)/(ab)=(M/a)(r^3/3) (from (-a/2) toI=(M/3a)(a^3/8 +a^3/8)=(Ma^2)/12 (a/2))

Two 4.0 kg masses are 1.0 m apart on a frictionless table. Each has 1.0 μC of charge.What is the magnitude of the electric force
xeze [42]

Coulomb's law:

  Force = (<span>8.99×10⁹ N m² / C²<span>) · (charge₁) · (charge₂) / distance²

            = (</span></span><span>8.99×10⁹ N m² / C²<span>) (1 x 10⁻⁶ C) (1 x 10⁻⁶ C)  / (1.0 m)²

            = (8.99×10⁹ x 1×10⁻¹² / 1.0)  N

            =      8.99×10⁻³  N

            =        0.00899 N repelling.

Notice that there's a lot of information in the question that you don't need.
It's only there to distract you, confuse you, and see whether you know
what to ignore.

-- '4.0 kg masses';  don't need it. 
   Mass has no effect on the electric force between them.

-- 'frictionless table';  don't need it.
   Friction has no effect on the force between them,
only on how they move in response to the force.

Convert the number from scientific into standard notation: 5.9 x 10-2
guapka [62]
Move the decimal point to:
Left : (if the exponent of ten is a negative number -) ... OUR CASE HERE (-2)
or to
Right : (if the exponent is positive +).

You should move the point as many times as the exponent indicates.
Do not write the power of ten anymore.

So, standard form is:
Two points to the left {Exponent of Ten is Negative (-2)}
0.059 ... (without the 10)
