Answer:

a) the total electric potential is 2282000 V

b) the total electric potential (in V) at the point with coordinates (0, 1.50 cm) is 1330769.23 V

Explanation:

Given the data in the question and as illustrated in the image below;

a) Determine the total electric potential (in V) at the origin.

We know that; electric potential due to multiple charges is equal to sum of electric potentials due to individual charges

so

Electric potential at p in the diagram 1 below is;

Vp = V1 + V2

Vp = kq1/r1 + kq2/r2

we know that; Coulomb constant, k = 9 × 10⁹ C

q1 = 4.60 uC = 4.60 × 10⁻⁶ C

r1 = 1.25 cm = 0.0125 m

q2 = -2.06 uC = -2.06 × 10⁻⁶ C

location x2 = −1.80 cm; so r2 = 1.80 cm = 0.018 m

so we substitute

Vp = ( 9 × 10⁹ × 4.60 × 10⁻⁶/ 0.0125 ) + ( 9 × 10⁹ × -2.06 × 10⁻⁶ / 0.018 )

Vp = (3312000) + ( -1030000 )

Vp = 3312000 -1030000

Vp = 2282000 V

Therefore, the total electric potential is 2282000 V

b)

the total electric potential (in V) at the point with coordinates (0, 1.50 cm).

As illustrated in the second image;

r1² = 0.015² + 0.0125²

r1 = √[ 0.015² + 0.0125² ]

r1 = √0.00038125

r1 = 0.0195

Also

r2² = 0.015² + 0.018²

r2 = √[ 0.015² + 0.018² ]

r2 = √0.000549

r2 = 0.0234

Now, Electric Potential at P in the second image below will be;

Vp = V1 + V2

Vp = kq1/r1 + kq2/r2

we substitute

Vp = ( 9 × 10⁹ × 4.60 × 10⁻⁶/ 0.0195 ) + ( 9 × 10⁹ × -2.06 × 10⁻⁶ / 0.0234 )

Vp = 2123076.923 + ( -762962.962 )

Vp = 2123076.923 -792307.692

Vp =  1330769.23 V

Therefore, the total electric potential (in V) at the point with coordinates (0, 1.50 cm) is 1330769.23 V

How does the science of heat transfer differ from the science of thermodynamics?
mariarad [96]

Answer:

The science of thermodynamics deals with the fundamental laws that guide how physical processes occur in relation with the energy transfer. When a system or process changes from one state of equilibrium to another, thermodynamics is interested with the amount of heat transfer during the process. On the other hand, the science of heat transfer is simply about the rate of heat and temperature distribution inside a system at a particular point in time.

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

a) The resulting angular speed of platform is 1.38 rev/sec

b) The change in kinetic energy of the system is 53 J.

Explanation:

This question is incomplete. The complete question will be:

You stand on a frictional platform that is rotating at 1.1 rev/s. Your arms are outstretched, and you hold a heavy weight in each hand. The moment of inertia of you, the extended weights, and the platform is 8.8 kg · m2. When you pull the weights in toward your body, the moment of inertia decreases to  7.0 k g .m 2  

a) What is the resulting angular speed of the platform? Answer in units of r e v / s .

b)What is the change in kinetic energy of the system? Answer in units of J.

<h3>ANSWER:</h3>

a)

we know that:

Angular Momentum = L = Iω

From conservation of momentum:

Lo = Lf

(Io) (ωo) = (If) (ωf)

ωf = (Io) (ωo)/(If)

ωf = (8.8 kg.m²)(1.1 rev/s)/(7.0 kg.m²)

<u>ωf = 1.38 rev/sec =</u>

b)

ωf = (1.38 rev/sec)(2π rad/ 1 rev) = 8.67 rad/sec

ωo = (1.1 rev/sec)(2π rad/ 1 rev) = 6.91 rad/sec

The kinetic energy for rotational motion is given as:

K.E = (1/2)Iω²

Thus, the change in kinetic energy will be:

ΔK.E = (K.E)f - (K.E)o

ΔK.E = (1/2)Ifωf² - (1/2)Ioωo²

ΔK.E = (1/2)(Ifωf² - Ioωo²)

ΔK.E = (1/2)[(7 kg.m²)(8.67 rad/sec)² - (8.8 kg.m²)(6.91 rad/sec)²

<u>ΔK.E = 53 J</u>

Interactive Solution 28.5 illustrates one way to model this problem. A 7.11-kg object oscillates back and forth at the end of a
____ [38]

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the object, m = 7.11 kg

Spring constant of the spring, k = 61.6 N/m

Speed of the observer, v=2.79\times 10^8\ m/s

We need to find the time period of oscillation observed by the observed. The time period of oscillation is given by :

t_o=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}} \\\\t_o=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{7.11}{61.6}} \\\\t_o=2.13\ s

Time period of oscillation measured by the observer is :

t=\dfrac{t_o}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}} }\\\\t=\dfrac{2.13}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{(2.79\times 10^8)^2}{(3\times 10^8)^2}} }\\\\t=5.79\ s

So, the time period of oscillation measured by the observer is 5.79 seconds.
