Which relations below regarding magnetic field and electric field lines are true? 1. Magnetic field lines never begin nor end bu
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Options 1 and 5 are correct

Explanation:

Magnetic field lines can never cross, the field is unique at any point in space. Magnetic field lines are continuous, forming closed loops without beginning or end. They go from the north pole to the south pole.

Magnetic field lines form closed loops but do not intersect.

Electric field lines originate at the positive charges and terminate at the negative charges. They move in a straight line and are parallel. Electric field lines neither form closed loops nor intersect.

Since, magnetic field lines form closed loops and move from North to South pole, they come out of north poles outside the magnet and into north poles inside the magnet, they also go into south poles outside the magnet and out of south poles inside the magnet.

How much elastic potential energy is stored in a bungee cord with a spring constant of 10.0 N/m when the cord is stretched 2.00
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

<em> The elastic potential energy stored in the bungee cord = 20 J</em>

Explanation:

potential energy: This is the energy possessed by a body due to its position. The S.I unit of energy is Joules. The mathematical expression for elastic potential energy is given below

E = 1/2ke²................ Equation 1

Where E = elastic potential energy of the spring, k = force constant of the spring, e = extension

<em>Given: K = 10 N/m, e = 2.00 m</em>

<em>Substituting these values into Equation 1</em>

<em>E = 1/2(10)(2)²</em>

<em>E = 5×4</em>

<em>E = 20 Joules.</em>

<em>Therefore the elastic potential energy stored in the bungee cord = 20 J</em>

A quarterback is set up to throw the football to a receiver who is running with a constant velocity v⃗ rv→rv_r_vec directly away
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

a) V_o,y = 0.5*g*t_c

b) V_o,x = D/t_c - v_r

c) V_o = sqrt ( (D/t_c - v_r)^2 + (0.5*g*t_c)^2)

d)  Q = arctan ( g*t_c^2 / 2*(D - v_r*t_c) )

Explanation:

Given:

- The velocity of quarterback before the throw = v_r

- The initial distance of receiver = r

- The final distance of receiver = D

- The time taken to catch the throw = t_c

- x(0) = y(0) = 0

Find:

a) Find V_o,y, the vertical component of the velocity of the ball when the quarterback releases it.  Express V_o,y in terms of t_c and g.

b) Find V_o,x, the initial horizontal component of velocity of the ball.   Express your answer for V_o,x in terms of D, t_c, and v_r.

c) Find the speed V_o with which the quarterback must throw the ball.  

   Answer in terms of D, t_c, v_r, and g.

d) Assuming that the quarterback throws the ball with speed V_o, find the angle Q above the horizontal at which he should throw it.

Solution:

- The vertical component of velocity V_o,y can be calculated using second kinematics equation of motion:

                               y = y(0) + V_o,y*t_c - 0.5*g*t_c^2

                              0 = 0 + V_o,y*t_c - 0.5*g*t_c^2

                               V_o,y = 0.5*g*t_c

- The horizontal component of velocity V_o,x witch which velocity is thrown can be calculated using second kinematics equation of motion:

- We know that V_i, x = V_o,x + v_r. Hence,

                               x = x(0) + V_i,x*t_c

                               D = 0 + V_i,x*t_c

                               V_o,x + v_r = D/t_c

                                V_o,x = D/t_c - v_r

- The speed with which the ball was thrown can be evaluated by finding the resultant of V_o,x and V_o,y components of velocity as follows:

                           V_o = sqrt ( V_o,x^2 + V_o,y^2)

                          V_o = sqrt ( (D/t_c - v_r)^2 + (0.5*g*t_c)^2)

       

- The angle with which it should be thrown can be evaluated by trigonometric relation:

                            tan(Q) = ( V_o,y / V_o,x )

                            tan(Q) = ( (0.5*g*t_c)/ (D/t_c - v_r) )

                                   Q = arctan ( g*t_c^2 / 2*(D - v_r*t_c) )

HALP me!! This is a physics question.
emmasim [6.3K]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>Distance covered is 6.9 meters</u>


<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Data given:

Work Done = 345 kJ = 345000 J

Force = 5 x 10 ^ 4 =  50000 N

Distance = ?


Solution:

As we know that

Work Done = Force applied x Distance covered

By arranging the equation we get

Work / Force = Distance covered

By putting the values

345000 / 50000 = 6.9

So distance covered is 6.9 meters
