Assuming a mass of 0.04 g, what is the power exerted by the electrical forces on a fragment of fiber if the fragment has a veloc

ity of 200 mm/s, 10 ms after ejection? For this problem, I used the formula P= Force * velocity = mass* (velocity/time)*velocity = (mass * velocity^2) /time. However I got the problem wrong. In the answer, they used the formula P= W/t = 1/2* (mass*velocity^2)/time. I am confused.When do you use P = Force * velocity = (mass * velocity^2) /time and when do you use P= W/t = 1/2* (mass*velocity^2)/time?

The power exerted by the electrical forces on a fragment of fiber is 8.0× 10^-5 Watts

<h3>Power and Energy or Work done</h3>

Power is the rate of doing work.

  • Power = work done / time

Energy is the ability to do work.

Work done and energy are used interchangeably.

  • Work done = Force × distance

In the example above, the energy possessed by the mass is kinetic energy.

Kinetic energy is the energy a body has by virtue of its motion.

  • Kinetic energy, KE = 1/2 mv^2

Calculating kinetic energy of the body:

mass of the body = 0.04 g = 4.0 × 10^-5 kg

velocity of the body = 200mm/s = 0.2 m/s

Kinetic energy of the body = 1/2 × 4.0 × 10^-5 × 0.2^2

Kinetic energy of the body = 8.0× 10^-7

Thus, work done = 8.0× 10^-7 J

Calculating power exerted:

time taken = 10 ms = 0.01 s

Power = work done/ time

Power exerted = 8.0× 10^-7/0.01

Power exerted = 8.0× 10^-5 Watts

Therefore, the power exerted by the electrical forces on a fragment of fiber is 8.0× 10^-5 Watts

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

3100 m/s

Explanation:

The relationship between frequency and wavelength of a wave is given by the wave equation:

v=f\lambda

where

v is the speed of the wave

f is its frequency

\lambda is the wavelength

For the wave in this problem,

f = 15,500 Hz

\lambda=0.20 m

Therefore, the wave speed is

v=(15500)(0.20)=3100 m/s
