a missile is moving 1810 m/s at a 20.0 degree angle. it needs to hit a target 19,500 m away in a 32.0 degree direction in 9.20 s
Ket [755]

Answer:

112 m/s², 79.1°

Explanation:

In the x direction, given:

x₀ = 0 m

x = 19,500 cos 32.0° m

v₀ = 1810 cos 20.0° m/s

t = 9.20 s

Find: a

x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

19,500 cos 32.0° = 0 + (1810 cos 20.0°) (9.20) + ½ a (9.20)²

a = 21.01 m/s²

In the y direction, given:

y₀ = 0 m

y = 19,500 sin 32.0° m

v₀ = 1810 sin 20.0° m/s

t = 9.20 s

Find: a

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

19,500 sin 32.0° = 0 + (1810 sin 20.0°) (9.20) + ½ a (9.20)²

a = 109.6 m/s²

The magnitude of the acceleration is:

a² = ax² + ay²

a² = (21.01)² + (109.6)²

a = 112 m/s²

And the direction is:

θ = atan(ay / ax)

θ = atan(109.6 / 21.01)

θ = 79.1°

A nonuniform, but spherically symmetric, distribution of charge has a charge density ρ(r) given as follows: ρ(r)=ρ0(1−r/r) for r
Nadusha1986 [10]

A)<span>
dQ = ρ(r) * A * dr = ρ0(1 - r/R) (4πr²)dr = 4π * ρ0(r² - r³/R) dr 
which when integrated from 0 to r is 
total charge = 4π * ρ0 (r³/3 + r^4/(4R)) 
and when r = R our total charge is 
total charge = 4π*ρ0(R³/3 + R³/4) = 4π*ρ0*R³/12 = π*ρ0*R³ / 3 
and after substituting ρ0 = 3Q / πR³ we have 
total charge = Q ◄ 

B) E = kQ/d² 
since the distribution is symmetric spherically 

C) dE = k*dq/r² = k*4π*ρ0(r² - r³/R)dr / r² = k*4π*ρ0(1 - r/R)dr 
so 
E(r) = k*4π*ρ0*(r - r²/(2R)) from zero to r is 
and after substituting for ρ0 is 
E(r) = k*4π*3Q(r - r²/(2R)) / πR³ = 12kQ(r/R³ - r²/(2R^4)) 
which could be expressed other ways. 

D) dE/dr = 0 = 12kQ(1/R³ - r/R^4) means that 
r = R for a min/max (and we know it's a max since r = 0 is a min). 

<span>E) E = 12kQ(R/R³ - R²/(2R^4)) = 12kQ / 2R² = 6kQ / R² </span></span>
