Answer:

Kinetic energy, form of energy that an object or a particle has by reason of its motion. ... Kinetic energy is a property of a moving object or particle and depends not only on its motion but also on its mass.

Tom kicks a soccer ball on a flat, level field giving it an initial speed of 20 m/s at an angle of 35 degrees above the horizont

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

(a) 2.34 s

(b) 6.71 m

(d) 20 m/s

Explanation:

u = 20 m/s, theta = 35 degree

(a) The formula for the time of flight is given by

$T = \frac{2 u Sin\theta }{g}$

$T = \frac{2 \times 20 \times Sin35 }{9.8}$

T = 2.34 second

(b) The formula for the maximum height is given by

$H = \frac{u^{2} \times Sin^{2}\theta }{2g}$

$H = \frac{20^{2} \times Sin^{2}35 }{2 \times 9.8}$

H = 6.71 m

$R = \frac{u^{2} \times Sin 2\theta }{g}$

$R = \frac{20^{2} \times Sin 2 \times 35}{9.8}$

R = 38.35 m

(d) It hits with the same speed at the initial speed.

A proton moves perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field B with arrow at a speed of 2.50 107 m/s and experiences an acceleration

KIM [24]

Answer:

A) B = 0.009185 T

B) Drection is negative y-direction

Explanation:

A) We are given;

Speed(v) = 2.5 x 10^(7) m/s

Acceleration (a) = 2.2 x 10^(13) m/s²

We also know that charge of proton(q) = 1.6 x 10^(-19)

Mass of proton(m) = 1.67 x 10^(-27)

Now, Since the proton is moving by circular motion, this force is equal to the centripetal force which is given as;

F = qvBsinθ = ma

Since perpendicular, θ = 90°

And so, sinθ = sin 90 = 1

Thus, qvB = ma

Making B the subject gives;

B = ma/qv

B = (1.67 X 10^(-27) X 2.2 X 10^13)) / (1.6 X 10^(-19) X 2.5 X 10^(7))

= 0.009185 T

B) By use of Flemings right hand rule, we can see that the middle finger points toward negative y-direction, so the magnetic field is in the negative y-direction

A particle with charge −− 5.90 nCnC is moving in a uniform magnetic field B⃗ =−(B→=−( 1.28 TT )k^k^. The magnetic force on the p

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge q=-5.90nC

Magnetic field B= -1.28T k

And the magnetic force

F =−( 3.70×10−7N )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

The force in a magnetic field is given as

F= q(v×B)

−( 3.70×10−7N )i+( 7.60×10−7N )j =

q(xi + yj + zk) × -1.28k

−( 3.70×10−7N )i+( 7.60×10−7N )j=

q( -1.28x i×k - 1.28y j×k - 1.28z k×k)

−( 3.70×10−7N )i+( 7.60×10−7N )j=

q( 1.28xj - 1.28y i )

−( 3.70×10−7N )i+( 7.60×10−7N )j=

q( -1.28y i + 1.28x j)

So comparing comparing coefficients

let compare x axis component

-( 3.70×10−7N )i=-1.28qy i

−3.70×10−7N = -1.28qy

y= -3.7×10^-7/-1.28q

y= -3.7×10^-7/-1.28×-5.90×10^-9)

y=-48.99m/s

y≈-49m/s

Let compare y-axisaxis

7.6×10−7N j = 1.28qx j

7.6×10−7N = 1.28qx

x= 7.6×10^-7/1.28q

x= 7.6×10^-7/1.28×-5.90×10^-9

x=-100.64m/s

a. Then, the velocity of the x component is x= -100.64m/s

b. Also, the velocity component of the y axis is y=-49m/s

c. We will compute

V•F

V=-100.64i -49j

F=−( 3.70×10−7 N )i+( 7.60×10−7 N )j

Note

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

V•F is

(-100.64i-49j)•−(3.70×10−7N)i+(7.60×10−7 N )j =

3.724×10^-5 - 3.724×10^-5=0

V•F=0

d. Angle between V and F

V•F=|V||F|Cosx

0=|V||F|Cosx

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

Suppose the Sun appeared to you 900 times dimmer than it does now. How far away from the Sun would you be? (A) 1/9 AU (B) 3 AU

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is option 'c': 30 AUs

Explanation:

For a spherical wave front emitted by sun with total energy 'E' the energy density over the surface when it is at a distance 'r' from the sun is given by

$e=\frac{E}{4\pi r^{2}}$

This energy per unit area is sensed by observer as intensity of the sun.

Let the initial intensity of sun at a distance $r_{1}$ be $e_{1}$

Thus if the sun becomes 900 times dimmer we have

$e'=\frac{e_{1}}{900}\\\\\frac{E}{4\pi r_{2}^{2}}=\frac{1}{900}\times \frac{E}{4\pi r_{1}^{2}}\\\\\Rightarrow r_{2}^{2}={r_{1}^{2}}\times 900\\\\\therefore r_{2}={r_{1}}\times {30}$

Thus the distance increases 30 times.
