Answer:

Explanation:

TE = KE + PE which is total energy available to a system is equal to its potential energy plus its kinetic energy, and that total energy will remain throughout the entire "trip", whatever it might be. So a is your answer.

0.0010 kg pellet is fired at a speed of 52.2 m/s at a motionless 3.3 kg piece of balsa wood. When the pellet

Paraphin [41]

The formula for momentum is p = m*v

The conservation of momentum suggests:

m*vi = m*vf (initial mass times initial velocity = final mass times final velocity or initial momentum = final momentum)

(0.0010)(52.2) = (0.0010 + 3.3)vf

vf = (0.0010)(52.2)/(0.0010 + 3.3) = 0.0522/3.301 ≈ 0.01581 m/s

To the nearest thousandth ≈ .016 m/s

A ride-sharing car moving along a straight section of road starts from rest, accelerating at 2.00 m/s2 until it reaches a speed

liq [111]

Answer:

A) total time = 55.5 seconds

B) average velocity = 25.27 m/s

Explanation:

It starts from rest, so initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

We are given;

acceleration; a = 2 m/s²

Final velocity; v = 31 m/s

From Newton's first law of motion,

v = u + at

So, 31 = 0 + 2t

t = 31/2

t = 15.5 sec

We are told that, after this time of 15.5 sec, the car travels 35 sec at a constant speed and after that it takes 5 sec additional time to stop. Thus;

(a) Total time in which car is in motion = 15.5 + 35 +5 = 55.5 seconds

b)Total distance traveled during first 15.5 sec would be gotten from Newton's second equation of motion which is;

S = ut + ½at²

S1 = 0 + ½(2 * 15.5²)

S1 = 240.25 m

Distance traveled in 35 sec with with velocity of 31 m/sec is;

S2 = velocity x time

S2 = 35 × 31 = 1085 m

Now, for the final stage, final velocity (v) will now be 0 since the car comes to rest while initial velocity(u) will be 31 m/s.

From the first equation of motion,

a = (v - u)/t

a = (0 - 31)/5

a = -6.2 m/s²

So, distance travelled is;

S3 = ut + ½at²

S3 = (31 × 5) + ½(-6.2 × 5²)

S3 = 155 - 77.5

S3 = 77.5 m

So overall total distance = S1 + S2 + S3

Overall total distance = 240.25 + 1085 + 77.5 = 1402.75 m

Average velocity = total distance/total time

Average velocity = 1402.75/55.5 = 25.27 m/s

A long, straight wire is surrounded by a hollow metal cylinder whose axis coincides with that of the wire. The wire has a charge

Alexxx [7]

Explanation:

It is given that, a long, straight wire is surrounded by a hollow metal cylinder whose axis coincides with that of the wire.

The charge per unit length of the wire is $\lambda$ and the net charge per unit length is $2 \lambda$ .

We know that there exist zero electric field inside the metal cylinder.

(a) Using Gauss's law to find the charge per unit length on the inner and outer surfaces of the cylinder. Let $\lambda_i\ and\ \lambda_o$ are the charge per unit length on the inner and outer surfaces of the cylinder.

For inner surface,

$\phi=\dfrac{q_{enclosed}}{\epsilon_o}$

$E.A=\dfrac{q_{enclosed}}{\epsilon_o}$

$0=\dfrac{\lambda_i+\lambda}{\epsilon_o}$

$\lambda_i=-\lambda$

For outer surface,

$\lambda_i+\lambda_o=2\lambda$

$-\lambda+\lambda_o=2\lambda$

$\lambda_o=3\lambda$

(b) Let E is the electric field outside the cylinder, a distance r from the axis. It is given by :

$E_o=\dfrac{\lambda_o}{2\pi \epsilon_o r}$

$E_o=\dfrac{3\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_o r}$

Hence, this is the required solution.
