The time when the two players will collide is 0.96 s.

The equation of motion of the two players is given as;

x1 = 0.1 m + (–3.9 m/s )t

x2 = –6.3 m + (2.8 m/s )t

The time when the two players collide, their displacement is equal or the difference in their position will be zero.

X_1 - X_2 = 0\\\\0.1 - 3.9 t - (-6.3 + 2.8t) = 0\\\\0.1 -3.9t + 6.3 -2.8t = 0\\\\6.4 -6.7t = 0\\\\6.7t = 6.4\\\\t = \frac{6.4}{6.7} = 0.96 \ s

Thus, the time when the two players will collide is 0.96 s.

A long, nonconducting cylinder (radius = 6.0 mm) has a nonuniform volume charge density given by αr2, where α = 6.2 mC/m5 and r
erastovalidia [21]

Answer: 2.80 N/C

Explanation: In order to calculate the electric firld inside the solid cylinder

non conductor we have to use the Gaussian law,

∫E.ds=Q inside/ε0

E*2πrL=ρ Volume of the Gaussian surface/ε0

E*2πrL= a*r^2 π* r^2* L/ε0

E=a*r^3/(2*ε0)

E=6.2 * (0.002)^3/ (2*8.85*10^-12)= 2.80 N/C

A small particle starts from rest from the origin of an xy-coordinate system and travels in the xy-plane. Its acceleration in th
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

The x-coordinate of the particle is 24 m.

Explanation:

In order to obtain the x-coordinate of the particle, you have to apply the equations for Two Dimension Motion

Xf=Xo+Voxt+0.5axt²(I)

Yf=Yo+Voyt+0.5ayt² (II)

Where Xo, Yo are the initial positions, Xf and Yf are the final positions, Vox and Voy are the initial velocities, ax and ay are the accerelations in x and y directions, t is the time.

The particle starts from rest from the origin, therefore:

Vox=Voy=0

Xo=Yo=0

Replacing Yf=12, Yo=0 and Voy=0 in (I) and solving for t:

12=0+(0)t+ 0.5(1.0)t²

12=0.5t²

Dividing by 0.5 and extracting thr squareroot both sides:

t=√12/0.5

t=√24 = 2√6

Replacing t=2√6, ax=2.0,Xo=0 and Vox=0 in (I) to obain the x-coordinate:

Xf=0+0t+0.5(2.0)(2√6)²

Xf= 24 m
