You tie a string to the ceiling and attach a weight to the end. You hold the weight next to your face but not touching it and th

en let go. The weight swings down and away from you and then starts swinging back toward you. If you do not move, will it hit you?

Answer:

Depends on how long the string is, how heavy the weight, and how high you let go of it.

But it will most likely hit you :)

How do you do this problem?
kvasek [131]

Explanation:

First, find the velocity of the projectile needed to reach a height h when fired straight up.

Given:

Δy = h

v = 0

a = -g

Find: v₀

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

(0)² = v₀² + 2(-g)(h)

v₀ = √(2gh)

Now find the height reached if the projectile is launched at a 45° angle.

Given:

v₀ = √(2gh) sin 45° = √(2gh) / √2 = √(gh)

v = 0

a = -g

Find: Δy

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

(0)² = √(gh)² + 2(-g)Δy

2gΔy = gh

Δy = h/2

What is the magnetic force on a proton that is moving at 2.5 107 m/s to the left through a magnetic field that is 3.4 T and poin
evablogger [386]

Answer: C. 1.4 10-11 N up

Explanation:

The magnetic force, F on a charge q moving with velocity v in a magnetic field B at an angle θ is given by:

F = q v B sin θ

Charge of proton, q = 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

Strength of magnetic field, B = 3.4 T pointing outwards

velocity of the proton, v = 2.5 × 10⁷ m/s towards left

Magnetic force is given by:

F =  1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C× 2.5 × 10⁷ m/s ×3.4 T× sin 90 = 13.6 × 10⁻¹² N = 1.4 × 10⁻¹¹ N up

The direction of the force is given by Lorentz Right hand rule. The fingers point magnetic field, the thumb points towards velocity, then the force on the proton is given by the direction perpendicular to the palm.  

The magnetic field acts outwards with velocity of the proton towards left. The force would act perpendicular to the two -upwards.

La velocidad \mathbf v del objeto al tiempo t es descrito por

\mathbf v(t)=v_x(t)\,\mathbf i+v_y(t)\,\mathbf j

donde

\begin{cases}v_x(t)={v_x}_0+a_xt\\v_y(t)={v_y}_0+a_yt\end{cases}

El objeto no tiene aceleración horizontal, pues a_x=0 y v_x está determinado exactamente por su velocidad inicial en la dirección horizontal. En la dirección vertical, la gravedad es la única fuerza que actúa en el objeto, pues a_y=-9.81\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}. Entonces, la velocidad después de 3\,\mathrm s satisface

{v_x}_0\,\mathbf i+\left({v_y}_0+\left(-9.81\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(3\,\mathrm s)\right)\,\mathbf j=20\,\mathbf i-4\,\mathbf j

Inmediatamente, vemos que {v_x}_0=20\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s} y podemos encontrar que {v_y}_0=25.43\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}.

Su posicíon es descrita al tiempo t por

\mathbr r(t)=r_x\,\mathbf i+r_y\,\mathbf j

con

\begin{cases}r_x={r_0}_x+{v_0}_xt+\dfrac12a_xt^2\\\\r_y={r_0}_y+{v_0}_yt+\dfrac12a_yt^2\end{cases}

Si la posición inicial del objeto es el origen, suponemos que \mathbr r(0)=\mathbf 0, y además tenemos

\mathbf r(t)=\left(20\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)t\,\mathbf i+\left(\left(25.43\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)t+\dfrac12\left(-9.81\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t^2\right)\,\mathbf j

Queremos determinar el máximo de r_y. Encontramos que {r_y}_{\mathrm{max}}\approx32.9\,\mathrm m cuando t\approx2.59\,\mathrm s.
