Answer:

<h3>1.8 seconds</h3>

Explanation:

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

[Since, it is at rest. ]

Acceleration (a) = 0.0075 m/s²
Final velocity (v) = 0.0135 m/s²

We are asked to calculate time taken to reach a speed of 0.0135m/s.

By using the first equation of motion,

v denotes final velocity
u denotes initial velocity
a denotes acceleration
t denotes time taken

Substituting values,

→ 0.0135 = 0 + 0.0075t

→ 0.0135 = 0.0075t

→ 0.0135 ÷ 0.0075 = t

→ 1350000 ÷ 750000 = t

→ 135 ÷ 75 = t

→ 1.8 = t

<h3>→ Time taken = 1.8 seconds</h3>

Therefore, it takes 1.8 seconds to reach a speed of 0.0135m/s.

sasho [114]

Answer:

Speed of electron when their separation increased by a factor of 4.10 is 9.41 x 10⁵ m/s .

Explanation:

The electric potential energy is given by the relation :

$U = \frac{kq_{1}q_{2} }{r}$

Here q₁ and q₂ are the two charge particles and r is the distance between them and k is electric constant.

In this case, there are two electrons which are separated by the distance 4.32 x 10⁻¹⁰ m.

Let e be the electron charge and r₁ be the distance between them. Then, the initial electric potential energy is :

$U_{1} = \frac{ke^{2} }{r_{1} }$

Now, the distance between the electrons increases by the factor of 4.10. Let r₂ be the new distance between them i.e. r₂ = 4.10 r₁.

Thus, the new electric potential energy is :

$U_{2} = \frac{ke^{2} }{r_{2} }=\frac{ke^{2} }{4.10r_{1} }$

Applying law of conservation of energy :

ΔU = ΔK

Here ΔU is change in electric potential energy and ΔK is change in kinetic energy.

( U₁ - U₂ ) = ( K₂ - K₁ )

Here K₂ and K₁ are initial and final kinetic energy of electron.

Since, the electron initially is at rest, so its initial kinetic energy is zero. Thus, the above equation becomes:

K₂ = U₁ - U₂

$\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}=\frac{ke^{2} }{r_{1} }- \frac{ke^{2} }{4.10r_{1} }$

Here m and v are the mass and final speed of electron respectively.

$v^{2}=\frac{2}{m} \frac{ke^{2} }{r_{1} }(1- \frac{1 }{4.10 })$

Substitute 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg for m, 9 x 10⁹ N m² C⁻² for k, 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C for e and 4.32 x 10⁻¹⁰ m for r₁ in the above equation.

$v^{2}=\frac{2}{9.1\times10^{-31} } \frac{9\times10^{9}\times(1.6\times10^{-19})^{2} }{4.32\times10^{-10} }(1- \frac{1 }{4.10 })$

$v^{2}=8.86\times10^{11}$

v = 9.41 x 10⁵ m/s

A bucket that has a mass of 20 kg when filled with sand needs to be lifted to the top of a 15 meter tall building. You have a ro

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the top of the building,

W=67.46 Nm

Explanation:

in this question we have given

mass of bucket=20kg

mass of rope= $.2\frac{kg}{m}$

height of building= 15 meter

We have to find the work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the building =work done in lifting the rope + work done in lifting the sand

work done in lifting the rope is given as, $W_{1}=Force \times displacement$

= $\int\limits^{15}_0 {.2x} \, dx$ ..............(1)

= $.1\times 15^2$

=22.5 Nm

work done in lifting the sand is given as, $W_{2}=Force \times displacement$

$W_{2}=\int\limits^{15}_0 F \, dx$ .................(2)

Here,

F=mx+c

here,

c=20-18

c=2

m= $\frac{20-18}{15-0}$

m=.133

Therefore,

$F=.133x+2$

Put value of F in equation 2

$W_{2}=\int\limits^{15}_0 (.133x+2) \, dx$

$W_{2}=.133 \times 112.5+2\times15\\W_{2}=14.96+30\\W_{2}=44.96 Nm$

Therefore,

work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the top of the building, $W=W_{1}+W_{2}$

W=22.5 Nm+44.96 Nm

W=67.46 Nm
