Answer:

Quantity of charge = 80 Coulombs

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Current = 2 A

Time = 40 seconds

To find the amount of charge flowing through the light bulb;

Mathematically, the quantity of charge passing through a conductor is given by the formula;

Quantity of charge = current * time

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Quantity of charge = 2 * 40

Quantity of charge = 80 Coulombs

An electron is projected vertically upward with a speed of 1.70 ✕ 106 m/s into a uniform magnetic field of 0.320 t that is direc

Serggg [28]

The electron's path in the magnetic field is a straight line when viewed from above.

In fact, the electron initially moves upward, while the magnetic field is directed horizontally. The electron experiences a force due to the magnetic field (the Lorentz force), whose direction is given by the right-hand rule:
- index finger --> initial direction of the electron (upward)
- middle finger --> direction of the magnetic field (horizontally, away from the observer)
- opposite direction to the thumb* --> direction of the force (horizontally, but perpendicular to the magnetic field, to the right)

This means that the Lorentz force makes the electron moving perpendicular to the magnetic field in the horizontal plane, and since the direction of the field is not changing, this force does not change its direction, so the electron moves in the same direction of the force in the horizontal plane (to the right), therefore following a straight line.

* the direction should be reversed because the charge is negative.

A cylinder of gas is compressed by a piston from an initial volume of 125 liters to a final volume of 90 liters. The compression

ololo11 [35]

Since the process occurs at constant pressure, the work done by the gas on the piston is given by
$W=p \Delta V = p (V_f - V_i)$
where
W is the work
p is the pressure
$V_f$ is the final volume
$V_i$ is the initial volume

In our problem, we have
$V_i =125 L = 125 \cdot 10^{-3}m^3$
$V_f = 90 L = 90 \cdot 10^{-3} m^3$
$W=-104 J$ (where the negative sign means the work is done by the piston on the gas)

We can re-arrange the previous equation and use these values to find the pressure:
$p= \frac{W}{V_f - V_i}= \frac{-104 J}{90 \cdot 10^{-3} m^3 - 125 \cdot 10^{-3} m^3}=2971 Pa$

At time t=0 a grinding wheel has an angular velocity of 26.0 rad/s. It has a constant angular acceleration of 25.0 rad/s^2 until

Zolol [24]

Angle turned by the wheel is given by the kinematics as

$\theta = \omega t + \frac{1}{2}\alpha t^2$

now here we know that

$\omega = 26 rad/s$

$\alpha = 25 rad/s^2$

t = 2.50 seconds

$\theta = 26(2.50) + \frac{1}{2}(25)(2.50)^2$

$\theta = 143.1 rad$

So here total angle that the wheel turn is given as

$\theta = 143.1 + 440 = 583.1 rad$

Speed of the wheel after 2.5 s

$\omega = \omega_0 + \alpha t$

$\omega = 26 + (25)(2.5)$

$\omega = 88.5 rad/s$

now angular deceleration is given as

$\alpha_1 = \frac{\omega^2 - \omega_0^2}{2\theta}$

$\alpha_1 = \frac{0 - 88.5^2}{2(440)}$

$\alpha_1 = -8.9 rad/s^2$

time taken to stop

$t = \frac{\omega - \omega_0}{\alpha}$

$t = \frac{0 - 88.5}{-8.9} = 9.94 s$

now total time is given as

$T = 2.50 + 9.94 = 12.44 s$

What does it mean when we say that Simple Harmonic Motion is "periodic"? *

juin [17]

Answer; the free encyclopedia. In mechanics and physics, simple harmonic motion is a special type of periodic motion or oscillation where the restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement and acts in the direction opposite to that of displacement.
