g An airplane is flying through a thundercloud at a height of 1500 m. (This is a very dangerous thing to do because of updrafts,

turbulence, and the possibility of electric discharge.) If a charge concentration of 25.0 C is above the plane at a height of 3000 m within the cloud and a charge concentration of -40.0 C is at height 850 m, what is the electric field at the aircraft

Answer:

523269.9\ \text{N/m}

Explanation:

q = Charge

r = Distance

q_1=25\ \text{C}

r_1=3000\ \text{m}

q_2=40\ \text{C}

r_2=850\ \text{m}

The electric field is given by

E=E_1+E_1\\\Rightarrow E=k(\dfrac{q_1}{r_1^2}+\dfrac{q_2}{r_2^2})\\\Rightarrow E=9\times 10^9\times (\dfrac{25}{3000^2}+\dfrac{40}{850^2})\\\Rightarrow E=523269.9\ \text{N/m}

The electric field at the aircraft is 523269.9\ \text{N/m}

Salt water is denser than fresh water. a ship floats in both fresh water and salt water. compared to the fresh water, the volume
gavmur [86]
The ship floats in water due to the buoyancy Fb that is given by the equation:

Fb=ρgV, where ρ is the density of the liquid, g=9.81 m/s² is the acceleration of the force of gravity and V is volume of the displaced liquid.

The density of fresh water is ρ₁=1000 kg/m³.

The density of salt water is in average ρ₂=1025 kg/m³.

To compare the volumes of liquids that are displaced by the ship we can take the ratio of buoyancy of salt water Fb₂ and the buoyancy of fresh water Fb₁.

The gravity force of the ship Fg=mg, where m is the mass of the ship and g=9.81  m/s², is equal to the force of buoyancy Fb₁ and Fb₂ because the mass of the ship doesn't change:
 
Fg=Fb₁ and Fg=Fb₂. This means Fb₁=Fb₂.

Now we can write:

Fb₂/Fb₁=(ρ₂gV₂)/(ρ₁gV₁), since Fb₁=Fb₂, they cancel out:

1/1=1=(ρ₂gV₂)/(ρ₁gV₁), g also cancels out:

(ρ₂V₂)/(ρ₁V₁)=1, now we can input ρ₁=1000 kg/m³ and ρ₂=1025 kg/m³

(1025V₂)/(1000V₁)=1

1.025(V₂/V₁)=1

V₂/V₁=1/1.025=0.9756, we multiply by V₁

V₂=0.9756V₁

Volume of salt water V₂ displaced by the ship is smaller than the volume of sweet water V₁ because the force of buoyancy of salt water is greater than the force of fresh water because salt water is more dense than fresh water.

A race car travels 40 m/s around a banked (45° with the horizontal) circular (radius = 0.20 km) track. What is the magnitude of
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

c)F_{net} = 0.640 kN

Explanation:

As we know that resultant force is the net force that is acting on the system

As per Newton's II law we know that net force is product of mass and acceleration

so we will have

F_{net} = ma

here we know

m = 80 kg

for circular motion acceleration is given as

a_c = \frac{v^2}{R}

a_c = \frac{40^2}{200} = 8 m/s^2

now we have

F_{net} = 80 \times 8

F_{net} = 640 N

F_{net} = 0.640 kN

The position-time equation for a cheetah chasing an antelope is:
pochemuha

Answer:

x = 1.6 + 1.7 t^2      omitting signs

a) at t = 0     x = 1.6 m

b) V = d x / d t = 3.4 t

at t = 0     V = 0

c) A = d^2 x / d t^2 = 3.4     (at t = 0  A = 3.4 m/s^2)

d)  x = 1.6 + 1.7 * (4.4)^2 = 34.5    (position at 4.4 sec = 34.5 m)

A 26 kg body is moving through space in the positive direction of an x axis with a speed of 350 m/s when, due to an internal exp
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

a.) 1567.2 m/s

b.) 149.4 m/s

Explanation:

Given that a 26 kg body is moving through space in the positive direction of an x axis with a speed of 350 m/s when, due to an internal explosion, it breaks into three parts. One part, with a mass of 7.8 kg, moves away from the point of explosion with a speed of 180 m/s in the positive y direction. A second part, with a mass of 8.8 kg, moves in the negative x direction with a speed of 640 m/s.

The x-component of the third part can be calculated by assuming that it moves in a positive x axis.

The third mass = 26 - ( 7.8 + 8.8)

The third mass = 26 - 16.6

The third mass = 9.4kg

since momentum is conserved, the momentum before explosion will be equal to sum of the momentum after explosion

26 x 350 = -8.8 x 640 + 9.4V

9100 = -5632 + 9.4V

9.4V = 9100 + 5632

9.4V = 14732

V = 14732/9.4

V = 1567.2 m/s

(b) y-component of the velocity of the third part will be

7.8 x 180 = 9.4 V

1404 = 9.4V

V = 1404/9.4

V = 149.4 m/s
