What is the work done if you push a tree with 50 N of force but the tree does not move?

Soloha48 [4]3 years ago

4 0

Answer:

The work done is 0.

Explanation:

The reason no work is done is because the equation W = Fs.

W = work

F= force

s= displacement

In this scenario F = 50 and s= 0

Therefore.

W = 50(0)

W = 0

Two point charges are fixed on the y axis: a negative point charge q1 = -25 μC at y1 = +0.18 m and a positive point charge q2 at

dedylja [7]

Answer:

$50.91 \mu C$

Explanation:

The magnitude of the net force exerted on q is known, we have the values and positions for $q_{1}$ and q. So, making use of coulomb's law, we can calculate the magnitude of the force exerted by $q_{1}$ on q. Then we can know the magnitude of the force exerted by $q_{2}$ about q, finally this will allow us to know the magnitude of $q_{2}$

$q_{1}$ exerts a force on q in +y direction, and $q_{2}$ exerts a force on q in -y direction.

$F_{1}=\frac{kq_{1} q }{d^2}\\F_{1}=\frac{(8.99*10^9)(25*10^{-6}C)(8.4*10^{-6}C)}{(0.18m)^2}=58.26 N\\$

The net force on q is:

$F_{T}=F_{1} - F_{2}\\25N=58.26N-F_{2}\\F_{2}=58.26N-25N=33.26N\\\mid F_{2} \mid=\frac{kq_{2}q}{d^2}$

Rewriting for $q_{2}$ :

$q_{2}=\frac{F_{2}d^2}{kq}\\q_{2}=\frac{33.26N(0.34m)^2}{8.99*10^9\frac{Nm^2}{C^2}(8.4*10^{-6}C)}=50.91*10^{-6}C=50.91 \mu C$

Part B

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

While slavery was the major issue separating the North and South, it was not slavery itself that sparked the conflict. The South wanted to secede from the Union, and the North refused. While President Abraham Lincoln personally opposed slavery, he recognized that it was legal under the U.S. Constitution at the time. He also recognized that few in the North were ready to go to war to free the slaves. For Lincoln and the northern majority, preservation of the Union was the foremost goal.

How long must a simple pendulum be if it is to make exactly one swing per four seconds? (That is, one complete oscillation takes

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

Length of the pendulum will be 3.987 m

Explanation:

We have given time period of the pendulum T = 8 sec

Acceleration due to gravity $g=9.81m/sec^2$

We have to find the length of the simple pendulum

We know that time period of the simple pendulum is given by

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}$

$8=2\times 3.14 \sqrt{\frac{l}{9.81}}$

$l=3.987m$

So length of the pendulum will be 3.987 m

A 2000-kg car moving with a speed of 20 m/s collides with and sticks to a 1500-kg car at rest at a stop sign. Show that because

amid [387]

Answer:

13.33m/s

Explanation:

Given data

m1= 2000kg

u1= 20m/s

m2= 1500kg

u2= 0m/s

v1= 10m/s

Required

The speed of the sticks

We know that from the expression for the conservation of momentum

m1u1+m2u2= m1v1+m2v2

2000*20+1500*0=2000*10+1500*v2

40000=20000+1500v2

collect like terms

40000-20000= 1500v2

20000= 1500v2

v2= 20000/1500

v2= 13.33 m/s

Hence the velocity of the sticks is 13.33m/s

Now find the components NxNxN_x and NyNyN_y of N⃗ N→N_vec in the tilted coordinate system of Part B. Express your answer in term

MArishka [77]

Answer:

$N_{y} =Ncos$ Ф,

$N_{x} =-Nsin$ Ф

Explanation:

Now find the components NxNxN_x and NyNyN_y of N⃗ N→N_vec in the tilted coordinate system of Part B. Express your answer in terms of the length of the vector NNN and the angle θθtheta, with the components separated by a comma.

Vectors are quantities that have both magnitude and direction while scalar quantities have only magnitude but no direction.

This a vector quantity

from the diagram the horizontal component of the length of the vector will be

$N_{y} =Ncos$ Ф

the vertical component will be

$N_{x} =-Nsin$ Ф

this is in the opposite direction because the x can be extrapolated to the negative axis
