Answer:

K.E=29.403125J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Mass M=100

Height 50-20=30m

Generally the equation for velocity before impact is is is mathematically given by

v=\sqrt{2gh}

v=\sqrt{2*9.8*30}

v=24.25

Generally the equation for Kinetic Energy is is mathematically given by

K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

K.E=\frac{1}{2}*100*(24.25)^2\\

K.E=29403.125J

K.E=29.403125J

Two parallel plates of area 2.34*10-3 M2 have 7.07*10-7C of charge placed on them. A6.62*10-5C charge q1 is placed between the p
ira [324]

Answer:

The force exerted on the q_1 is  F =  2.25*10^{3} \ N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The area is  A =  2.34*10^{-3} \ m^2

     The magnitude of charge placed on them is  q =  7.07 * 10^{-7} C

     The charge placed between the plate is q_1 = 6.62 *10^{-5} C

   

The electric field generated around the plate  is mathematically represented as

           E =  \frac{q}{A \epsilon_o}

Substituting values

          E =  \frac{7.07*10^{-7}}{2.34*10^{-3} * 8.85 *10^{-12}}

         E = 34*10^{6} \ V/m

The force exerted the charge q_1 is  mathematically represented as

        F =  q_1 * E

Substituting values  

        F =  6.62 *10^{-5} * 34*10^{6}

        F =  2.25*10^{3} \ N

Calculate (a) the torque, (b) the energy, and (c) the average power required to accelerate Earth in 4.0 days from rest to its pr
natima [27]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Torque = <em>2.05 x 10²⁸ Nm</em>

Energy = <em>3.54 x 10³³ J</em>

Average power = <em>1.02 x 10²⁸ W</em>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

(a) Torque (τ) is the rotational effect of a given force.  

It is given by

τ = I x α          -------------(i)

Where;

I = rotational inertia of the object

α = angular acceleration of the object.

In this case, the object is the Earth. Therefore,

I = 9.71 x 10³⁷ kg m²

α = ω / t

Where;

ω = angular velocity of earth = 2π rad / day

<em>Since </em>

<em>1 day = 24 hours and 1 hour = 3600seconds</em>

<em>1 day = 24 x 3600 seconds = 86400seconds</em>

<em>=> ω = 2π rad / 86400seconds</em>

<em>=> ω = 7.29 × 10⁻⁵ rad/s</em>

<em />

t = 4 days = 4 x 24 x 3600 seconds = 345600 seconds

=> α = ω / t

=> α = 7.29 × 10⁻⁵ / 345600

=> α = (7.29 × 10⁻⁵) / (3.456 x 10⁵)

=> α = (7.29 × 10⁻⁵⁻⁵) / (3.456)

=> α = (7.29 × 10⁻¹⁰) / (3.456)

=> α = 2.11 × 10⁻¹⁰ rad/s²

Now substitute the values of I and α into equation (i)

τ = 9.71 x 10³⁷ x 2.11 × 10⁻¹⁰

τ = 9.71 x 10²⁷ x 2.11

τ = 20.5 x 10²⁷ Nm

τ = 2.05 x 10²⁸ Nm

(ii) The energy (rotational energy) E is given by;

E = \frac{1}{2} x I x ω

E = \frac{1}{2} x 9.71 x 10³⁷ x 7.29 × 10⁻⁵

E = 35.4 x 10³² J

E = 3.54 x 10³³ J

(iii) The average power P, is given by;

P = E / t

P = 3.54 x 10³³ / 345600

P = 1.02 x 10²⁸ W

A car moving with an initial speed v collides with a second stationary car that is one-half as massive. After the collision the
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

4v/3

Explanation:

Assume elastic collision by the law of momentum conservation:

m_1v = m_1v_1 + m_2v_2

where v is the original speed of car 1, v1 is the final speed of car 1 and v2 is final speed of car 2. m1 and m2 are masses of car 1 and car 2, respectively

Substitute m_2 = m_1/2 \& v_1 = v/3

m_1v = \frac{m_1v}{3} + \frac{m_1v_2}{2}

Divide both side by m_1, then multiply by 6 we have

6v = 2v + 3v_2

3v_2 = 4v

v_2 = \frac{4v}{3}

So the final speed of the second car is 4/3 of the first car original speed
