A young woman walks up 55 steps to the top of a water slide. She slides

Physics
1 answer:
navik [9.2K]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

potential energy PE = M g h

KE at bottom = 1/2 M V^2

Regardless of the slope of the slide the change in energy is the same

1/2 V^2 = g h

V = (2 g h)^1/2 = (2 * 9.8 m/s^2 * 10 m)^1/2 = 14 m / s

Perhaps the question says that h = 55 * .1 = 5.5 m

Then V = (2 * 9.8 * 5.5) = 10.4 m/s

What electric field strength would store 12.5 JJ of energy in every 6.00 mm3mm3 of space?
Tcecarenko [31]

To develop this problem we will apply the concepts related to the potential energy per unit volume for which we will obtain an energy density relationship that can be related to the electric field. From this formula it will be possible to find the electric field required in the problem. Our values are given as

The potential energy,  U = 13.0 J

The volume,  V = 6.00 mm^3 = 6.00*10^{-9}m^3

The potential energy per unit volume is defined as the energy density.

u = \frac{U}{V}

u= \frac{(13.0 J)}{(6.00*10^{-9} m^3)}

u= 2.167109 J/m^3

The energy density related with electric field is given by

u = \frac{1}{2} \epsilon_0 E^2

Here, the permitivity of the free space is

\epsilon_0 = 8.85*10^-{12} C^2/N \cdot m^2

Therefore, rerranging to find the electric field strength we have,

E = \sqrt{\frac{2u}{\epsilon_0}}

E = \sqrt{\frac{2(2.167109)}{8.85*10^{-12}}}

E = 2.211010 V/m

Therefore the electric field is 2.21V/m

Two long, straight parallel wires 8.2 cm apart carry currents of equal magnitude I. The parallel wires repel each other with a f
o-na [289]

Answer:

36.22 mA

Explanation:

i1 = I , i2 = I, d = 8.2 cm = 0.082 m

Force per unit length = 3.2 nN/m = 3.2 x 10^-9 N/m

μo = 4 π × 10^-7 Tm/A

The formula for the force per unit length between the two wires is given by

F = μo / 4π x (2 i1 x i2) / d

3.2 x 10^-9 = 10^-7 x 2 x I^2 / 0.082

I = 0.0362 A = 36.22 mA

the earth has a radius of 6.38×10^16 meter and turns around once on its axis in 24 hour.what is the radial acceleration of perso
Scrat [10]

337493603.8m/s²

Explanation:

Radius of the earth = 6.38 x 10¹⁶m

time = 24hr (86400s)

Unknown:

Centripetal acceleration = ?

Solution:

The centripetal acceleration is directed inward to keep the body from falling off the surface of the earth.

     centripetal acceleration  = \frac{v^{2} }{r}

  where v is the velocity and r is the radius

   also;

            v  = wr

  where w is the angular velocity

substituting in the equation for centripetal acceleration gives;

                 

          a = w²r

 also w = \frac{2 x pi}{T}

      therefore;

                 a = \frac{4 \pi  ^{2} r }{T^{2} }

 a = \frac{ 4 x 3.142^{2}  x 6.38 x 10^{16} }{86400^{2} }

 a = 337493603.8m/s²
