Answer:

797700000 J

Explanation:

From the question,

The work done by the rocket, is given as,

W = Ek+Ep............. Equation 1

Where Ek and Ep are the potential and the kinetic energy of the rocket respectively.

Ep = mgh............ Equation 2

Ek = 1/2mv²............. equation 3

Substitute equation 2 and equation 3 into equation 1

W = mgh+1/2mv².............. Equation 4

Where m = mass of the rocket, h = height, v = velocity of the rocket, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Given: m = 2000 kg, h = 12 km = 12000 m, v = 750 m/s, g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute into equation 4

W = 2000(12000)(9.8)+1/2(2000)(750²)

W = 235200000+562500000

W = 797700000 J

A particle with a charge of − 5.10 nC is moving in a uniform magnetic field of B⃗ =−( 1.20 T )k^. The magnetic force on the part
marta [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge q=-5.10nC

Magnetic field B= -1.2T k

And the magnetic force

F =−( 3.30×10−7N )i+( 7.60×10−7N )j

Let the velocity be V(xi + yj + zk)

Then, the force is given as

Note i×i=j×j×k×k=0

i×j=k. j×i=-k

j×k=i. k×j=-i

k×i=j. i×k=-j

F= q(v×B)

−( 3.30×10−7N )i+( 7.60×10−7N )j =

q(xi + yj + zk) × -1.2k

−( 3.30×10−7N )i+( 7.60×10−7N )j=

q( -1.2x i×k - 1.2y j×k - 1.2z k×k)

−( 3.30×10−7N )i+( 7.60×10−7N )j=

q( 1.2xj - 1.2y i )

−( 3.30×10−7N )i+( 7.60×10−7N )j=

q( -1.2y i + 1.2x j)

So comparing comparing coefficients

let compare x axis component

-( 3.30×10−7N )i=-1.2qy i

−3.30×10−7N = -1.2qy

y= -3.3×10^-7/-1.2q

y= -3.3×10^-7/-1.2×-5.10×10^-9)

y=-53.92m/s

Let compare y-axisaxis

7.6×10−7N j = 1.2qx j

7.6×10−7N = 1.2qx

x= 7.6×10^-7/-1.2q

x= 7.6×10^-7/1.2×-5.10×10^-9)

x=-124.18m/s

a. Then, the velocity of the x component is x= -124.18m/s

b. Also, the velocity component of the y axis is =-53.92m/s

c. We will compute

V•F

V=-124.18i -53.92j

F=−( 3.30×10−7 N )i+( 7.60×10−7 N )j

Note

i.j=j.i=0. Also i.i = j.j =1

V•F is

(-124.18i-53.92j)•−(3.30×10−7N)i+(7.60×10−7 N )j =

4.1×10^-5 - 4.1×10^-5=0

V•F=0

d. Angle between V and F

V•F=|V||F|Cosx

0=|V||F|Cos

Cosx=0

x= arccos(0)

x=90°

Since the dot product is zero, from vectors , if the dot product of two vectors is zero, then the vectors are perpendicular to each other
