Answer:

Moment is Newtons-meters, and work is Newtons-meters. No they're not the same. For work the force has to be in the same direction (vector dot product) as relevant distance (that is the distance traveled), whereas for torque the force has to be perpendicular (vector cross product) to the relevant distance (which is the lever length).

Two protons are aimed directly toward each other by a cyclotron accelerator with speeds of 1200 km/s , measured relative to the

Radda [10]

Answer:

The maximum electrical force is $2.512\times10^{-2}\ N$ .

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of cyclotron = 1200 km/s

Initially the two protons are having kinetic energy given by

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

When they come to the closest distance the total kinetic energy is converts into potential energy given by

Using conservation of energy

$mv^2=\dfrac{kq^2}{r}$

$r=\dfrac{kq^2}{mv^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$r=\dfrac{8.99\times10^{9}\times(1.6\times10^{-19})^2}{1.67\times10^{-27}\times(1200\times10^{3})^2}$

$r=9.57\times10^{-14}\ m$

We need to calculate the maximum electrical force

Using formula of force

$F=\dfrac{kq^2}{r^2}$

$F=\dfrac{8.99\times10^{9}\times(1.6\times10^{-19})^2}{(9.57\times10^{-14})^2}$

$F=2.512\times10^{-2}\ N$

Hence, The maximum electrical force is $2.512\times10^{-2}\ N$ .

Why do you think the combined wave is more powerful than either the transverse or longitudinal wave with the same amplitude

liq [111]

Answer:

Explanation:

The combined wave only end up been more powerful than the Longitudinal wave. This means, the transverse wave is more powerful than the combined wave. In transverse wave, the oscillation is perpendicular to the direction of the wave, while in longitudinal wave, the motion of the movement of the object is parallel to the movement of the wave. And in combined wave, the movement of the medium is in a circular manner,

2. A woman prevents a 3kg brick from falling by pressing it against a vertical wall. The coefficient of friction

Anettt [7]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

49 N

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

Mass of the brick as 3 kg
The coefficient of friction as 0.6

We are required to determine the force that must be applied by the woman so the brick does not fall.

We need to importantly note that;
For the brick not to fall the, the force due to gravity is equal to the friction force acting on the brick.

That is; Friction force = Mg

But; Friction force = μ F

Therefore;

μ F = mg

0.6 F = 3 × 9.8

0.6 F = 29.4

F = 49 N

Therefore, she must use a force of 49 N
