Answer:

The horizontal distance traveled by the projectile is 60 m

Explanation:

Given;

initial horizontal velocity of the projectile, Vₓ = 30 m/s

time of the motion of the projectile, t = 2 s

The horizontal distance traveled by the projectile is given by the range of the projection;

X = Vₓt

X = 30 x 2

X = 60 m

Therefore, the horizontal distance traveled by the projectile is 60 m

Problem 21-40a:

Greeley [361]

Answer:

Part a)

$\frac{F_e}{F_g} = 2.74 \times 10^{12}$

Part b)

$q = 3.37 \times 10^{-4} C$

Explanation:

As we know that electric force on electric charge is given as

$F = qE$

here we have

$q = 1.6 \times 10^{-19}C$

E = 153 N/C

now force is given as

$F = (1.6 \times 10^{-19})(153) = 2.45 \times 10^{-17} N$

Gravitational force on electric charge near surface of earth is given as

$F_g = mg$

$F_g = (9.1 \times 10^{-31})(9.81) = 8.93 \times 10^[-30} N$

now the ratio of two forces is given as

$\frac{F_e}{F_g} = \frac{2.45 \times 10^{-17}}{8.93 \times 10^{-30}}$

$\frac{F_e}{F_g} = 2.74 \times 10^{12}$

Part b)

Now the ball is balanced by the electric force and the force of gravity on it

so here we have

$F_g = qE$

$mg = qE$

$(5.25 \times 10^{-3})(9.81) = q(153)$

here we have

$q = 3.37 \times 10^{-4} C$

A 0.20-kg object is attached to the end of an ideal horizontal spring that has a spring constant of 120 N/m. The simple harmonic

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

0.07756 m

Explanation:

Given mass of object =0.20 kg

spring constant = 120 n/m

maximum speed = 1.9 m/sec

We have to find the amplitude of the motion

We know that maximum speed of the object when it is in harmonic motion is given by $v_{max}=A\omega$ where A is amplitude and $\omega$ is angular velocity

Angular velocity is given by $\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$ where k is spring constant and m is mass

So $v_{max}=A\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$

$A=V_{max}\sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}=1.9\times \sqrt{\frac{0.2}{120}}=0.07756 \ m$

A positively charged particle is in the center of a parallel-plate capacitor that has charge ±Q on its plates. SUppose the dista

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

Stay the same

Explanation:

First of all, let's find how the capacitance of the capacitor changes.

Initially, it is given by

$C=\frac{\epsilon_0 A}{d}$

where

$\epsilon_0$ is the vacuum permittivity

A is the area of the plates

d is the separation between the plates

From the formula, we see that the capacitance is inversely proportional to the separation between the plates. In this problem, the distance between the plates is doubled, so the capacitance will be halved:

$C' = \frac{1}{2}C$

The potential difference across the capacitor is given by

$V= \frac{Q}{C}$

where

Q is the charge on the plates

C is the capacitance

We see that the voltage is inversely proportional to the capacitance. We said that the capacitance has halved: therefore, the potential difference across the two plates will double:

$V' = 2 V$

Now we can analyze the electric field between the plates of the capacitor, which is given by

$E=\frac{V}{d}$

we said that:

- The voltage has doubled: V' = 2 V

- The distance between the plates has doubled: d' = 2 d

therefore, the new electric field will be

$E'=\frac{2V}{2d}=\frac{V}{d}=E$

So, the electric field is unchanged. And since the force on the particle at the center is directly proportional to the electric field:

F = qE

Then the force on the particle will stay the same.
