Explanation:

equating the parameters into the formula, it's gonna be

= ½ × 60 × 20²

= ½ × 60 × 400

= ½ × 24000

K.E = 12000J

liberstina [14]

K.E=18750J
Mass=m=2100kg
Velocity=v

$\boxed{\sf K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 18750=\dfrac{1}{2}2100v^2$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 18750=1050v^2$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto v^2=\dfrac{18750}{1050}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto v^2=17.85m^2$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto v=\sqrt{17.85}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto v=4.1m/s$

a 2100-kg car drives with a speed of 18 m/s onb a flat road around a curve that has a radius of curvature of 83m. The coefficien

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

The magnitude of the friction force is 8197.60 N

Explanation:

Using the definition of the centripetal force we have:

$\Sigma F=ma_{c}=m\frac{v^{2}}{R}$

Where:

m is the mass of the car
v is the speed
R is the radius of the curvature

Now, the force acting in the motion is just the friction force, so we have:

$F_{f}=m\frac{v^{2}}{R}$

$F_{f}=2100\frac{18^{2}}{83}$

$F_{f}=8197.60 \: N$

Therefore the magnitude of the friction force is 8197.60 N

I hope it helps you!

Scrat [10]

Answer:

Part 1 $E = 2.42 * 10^{21} N/C$

Part 2 $E = 1.3 * 10^{13} N/C$

Part 3 $E = 0$

Explanation:

Given

Number of protons $= 92$

Radius of nucleus $r_n = 7.4 * 10^{-15} m$

Distance of the electrons $r_1 = 1.0 * 10^ {-10} m$

Part 1

Electric field produced by just outside its surface

$E = \frac{q}{4\pi*E_0* r_n^2 } \\E = \frac{9 * 10^ 9 * 92 * 1.6 * 10^{-19}}{(7.4* 10^{-15})^2} \\E = 2.42 * 10^{21} N/C$

Part 2

Electric field produced by just outside its surface

$E = \frac{q}{4\pi*E_0* r_n^2 } \\E = \frac{9 * 10^ 9 * 92 * 1.6 * 10^{-19}}{(1* 10^{-15})^2} \\E = 1.3 * 10^{13} N/C$

Part 3

The net electric field inside a uniform shell of negative charge is zero because the electric flux lines cancel out each other

hence, the solution is

Part 1 $E = 2.42 * 10^{21} N/C$

Part 2 $E = 1.3 * 10^{13} N/C$

Part 3 $E = 0$

You have two square metal plates with side lengths of (6.50 C) cm. You want to make a parallel-plate capacitor that will hold a

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

The necessary separation between the two parallel plates is 0.104 mm

Explanation:

Given;

length of each side of the square plate, L = 6.5 cm = 0.065 m

charge on each plate, Q = 12.5 nC

potential difference across the plates, V = 34.8 V

Potential difference across parallel plates is given as;

$V = \frac{Qd}{L^2 \epsilon_o} \\\\d = \frac{V L^2 \epsilon_o}{Q}$

Where;

d is the separation or distance between the two parallel plates;

$d = \frac{VL^2 \epsilon_o}{Q} \\\\d = \frac{34.8*(0.065)^2 *8.854*10^{-12}}{12.5*10^{-9}} \\\\d = 0.000104 \ m\\\\d = 0.104 \ mm$

Therefore, the necessary separation between the two parallel plates is 0.104 mm
