Suppose the original segment of wire is stretched to 10 times its original length. How much charge must be added to the wire to

keep the linear charge density unchanged?.

Here we want to study how the linear charge density changes as we change the measures of our body.

We will find that we need to add 9*Q of charge to keep the linear charge density unchanged.

<em>I will take two assumptions:</em>

The charge is homogeneous, so the density is constant all along the wire.

As we work with a linear charge density we work in one dimension, so the wire "has no radius"

Originally, the wire has a charge Q and a length L.

The linear charge density will be given by:

λ = Q/L

Now the length of the wire is stretched to 10 times the original length, so we have:

L' = 10*L

We want to find the value of Q' such that λ' (the <u>linear density of the stretched wire</u>) is still equal to λ.

Then we will have:

λ' = Q'/L' = Q'/(10*L) = λ = Q/L

Q'/(10*L) = Q/L

Q'/10 = Q

Q' = 10*Q

So the new <u>charge must be 10 times the original charge</u>, this means that we need to add 9*Q of charge to keep the linear charge density unchanged.

A generator with �# ' = 300 V and Zg = 50 Ω is connected to a load ZL = 75 Ω through a 50-Ω lossless line of length l = 0.15λ. (
ki77a [65]

Answer:

a. Zin = 41.25 - j 16.35 Ω

b. V₁ = 143. 6 e⁻ ¹¹ ⁴⁶

c.  Pin = 216 w

d. PL = Pin = 216 w

e. Pg = 478.4 w , Pzg = 262.4 w

Explanation:

a.

Zin = Zo * [ ZL + j Zo Tan (βl) ] / [ Zo + j ZL Tan (βl) ]  

βl = 2π / λ * 0.15 λ = 54 °

Zin = 50 * [ 75 + j 50 Tan (54) ] / [ 50 + j 75 Tan (54) ]

Zin = 41.25 - j 16.35 Ω

b.

I₁ = Vg / Zg + Zin ⇒ I₁ = 300 / 41.25 - j 16.35 = 3.24 e ¹⁰ ¹⁶

V₁ = I₁ * Zin = 3.24 e ¹⁰ ¹⁶ * ( 41.25 - j 16.35)

V₁ = 143. 6 e⁻ ¹¹ ⁴⁶

c.

Pin = ¹/₂ * Re * [V₁ * I₁]

Pin = ¹/₂ * 143.6 ⁻¹¹ ⁴⁶ * 3.24 e ⁻ ¹⁰ ¹⁶ = 143.6 * 3.24 / 2 * cos (21.62)

Pin = 216 w

d.

The power PL and Pin are the same as the line is lossless input to the line ends up in the load so

PL = Pin

PL = 216 w

e.

Pg Generator

Pg = ¹/₂ * Re * [ V₁ * I₁ ] = 486 * cos (10.16)

Pg = 478.4 w

Pzg dissipated

Pzg = ¹/₂ * I² * Zg = ¹/₂ * 3.24² * 50

Pzg = 262.4 w

6. Mr. Leppold jumps out of a plane with a parachute...before the chute opens,
polet [3.4K]

1) He has both potential and kinetic energy

2) Before the parachute opens, the potential energy decreases and the kinetic energy increases

Explanation:

1)

The gravitational potential energy of a body is the energy possessed by the object due to its position in a gravitational field, and it is given by:

PE=mgh

where

m is the mass of the body

g is the acceleration of gravity

h is the height of the body above the ground

On the other hand, the kinetic energy of a body is the energy possessed by the body due to its motion; it is given by

KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

v is the speed of the object

Here Mr. Leppold has both potential and kinetic energy before opening the parachute, because:

- It is moving at a certain speed, so v\neq 0, therefore he has kinetic energy

- He is at a certain height above the ground, h\neq 0, therefore he has potential energy

2)

The total mechanical energy of Mr.Leppold is the sum of the potential and the kinetic energy:

E=PE+KE

According to the law of conservation of energy, in absence of air resistance, this quantity remains constant.

During the fall, the height of Leppold decreases: this means that as h decreases, the potential energy decreases  too.

However, the total energy E must remain constant: therefore, this means that the kinetic energy KE must increase, and this occurs because the speed of Mr. Leppold increases as he falls.

A piece of taffy slams into and sticks to an identical piece of taffy at rest. The momentum of the combined pieces after the col
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

D) 50%

Explanation:

According to conservation of momentum:

m_{1} v_{1i} + m_{2} v_{2i} = m_{1} v_{1f} + m_{2} v_{2f}

Assuming that the second taffy started at rest, both pieces have the same mass and that they combined after the collision, their final velocity is:

m v_{1i} = (m+m) v_{f}\\v_{f} = 0.5 v_{1i}

The initial kinetic energy of the system is:

E_{ki} = \frac{m*v_{1i}^2}{2}

Since the second taffy was not moving, it had no kinetic energy at first.

The initial kinetic energy of the system is:

E_{kf} = \frac{2m*v_{f}^2}{2}\\E_{kf} = \frac{2m*(0.5v_{1i})^2}{2}\\E_{kf} = \frac{0.5m*v_{1i}^2}{2}

The percentage of kinetic energy that becomes heat is given by:

H=1 - \frac{E_{kf}}{E_{ki}}\\H=1 - \frac{\frac{0.5m*v_{1i}^2}{2}}{\frac{m*v_{1i}^2}{2}}\\\\H=1- 0.5 = 0.5

THerefore, 50% of the kinetic energy becomes heat
