Answer:

The difference in the phase angle between any two waves at any given position along the waves.

Explanation:

The phase difference between two waves is defined as the difference between its two phase angles, measured at the same time, but not always at the same point in space. In other words, the phase difference is when the waves have the same frequency, but reach their zero value at a different time.

A thin, horizontal, 18-cm-diameter copper plate is charged to -3.8 nC. Assume that the electrons are uniformly distributed on th

son4ous [18]

Answer:

Part a)

$E = 8436.7 N/C$

Part b)

$E = 8436.7 N/C$

Explanation:

Part a)

Electric field due to large sheet is given as

$E = \frac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}$

$\sigma = \frac{Q}{A}$

$Q = -3.8 nC$

$A = \pi(0.09)^2$

$A = 0.025 m^2$

$\sigma = \frac{-3.8\times 10^{-9}}{0.025}$

$\sigma = -1.5 \times 10^{-7} C/m^2$

now the electric field is given as

$E = \frac{-1.5 \times 10^{-7}}{2(8.85 \times 10^{-12})}$

$E = 8436.7 N/C$

Part b)

Now since the electric field is required at same distance on other side

so the field will remain same on other side of the plate

$E = 8436.7 N/C$

A machine is currently set to a feed rate of 5.921 inches per minute (IPM). Te machinist changes this setting to 6.088 IPM. By h

lukranit [14]

Answer:

By 16.7% or 0.167 IPM

Explanation:

Substracting the final IPM (6.088) to the initial IPM (5.921) gives us the net difference, which is how much did it increase in IPM. Multiplying this number by 100 gives us the percentual increase in the feed rate.

A 50.-kilogram rock rolls off the edge of a cliff. if it is traveling at a speed of 24.2 m/s when it hits the ground, what is th

ElenaW [278]

The correct answer to the question is : 29.88 m.

EXPLANATION :

As per the question, the mass of the rock m = 50 Kg.

The rock is rolling off the edges of the cliff.

The final velocity of the rock when it hits the ground v = 24 .2 m/s.

Let the height of the cliff is h.

The potential energy gained by the rock at the top of the cliff = mgh.

Here, g is known as acceleration due to gravity, and g = $9.8\ m/s^2$

When the rock rolls off the edge of the cliff, the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy.

When the rock hits the ground, whole of its potential energy is converted into its kinetic energy.

The kinetic energy of the rock when it touches the ground is given as -

Kinetic energy K.E = $\frac{1}{2}mv^2$ .

From above we know that -

Kinetic energy at the bottom of the cliff = potential energy at a height h

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\ mgh$

⇒ $v^2=\ 2gh$

⇒ $h=\ \frac{v^2}{2g}$

⇒ $h=\ \frac{(24.2)^2}{2\times 9.8}$

⇒ $h=\ 29.88\ m$

Hence, the height of the cliff is 29.88 m

An electron is moving in the vicinity of a long, straight wire that lies along the z-axis. The wire has a constant current of 8.

viktelen [127]

Answer:

The force that the wire exerts on the electron is $-4.128\times10^{-20}i-6.88\times10^{-20}j+0k$

Explanation:

Given that,

Current = 8.60 A

Velocity of electron $v= (5.00\times10^{4})i-(3.00\times10^{4})j\ m/s$

Position of electron = (0,0.200,0)

We need to calculate the magnetic field

Using formula of magnetic field

$B=\dfrac{\mu I}{2\pi d}(-k)$

Put the value into the formula

$B=\dfrac{4\pi\times10^{-7}\times8.60}{2\pi\times0.200}$

$B=0.0000086\ T$

$B=-8.6\times10^{-6}k\ T$

We need to calculate the force that the wire exerts on the electron

Using formula of force

$F=q(\vec{v}\times\vec{B}$

$F=1.6\times10^{-6}((5.00\times10^{4})i-(3.00\times10^{4})j\times(-8.6\times10^{-6}) )$

$F=(1.6\times10^{-19}\times3.00\times10^{4}\times(-8.6\times10^{-6}))i+(1.6\times10^{-19}\times5.00\times10^{4}\times(-8.6\times10^{-6}))j+0k$

$F=-4.128\times10^{-20}i-6.88\times10^{-20}j+0k$

Hence, The force that the wire exerts on the electron is $-4.128\times10^{-20}i-6.88\times10^{-20}j+0k$

Two climbers are on a mountain. Simon, of mass m, is sitting on a snow covered slope that makes an angle θ with the horizontal.

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

It is required that the weight of Joe must prevent Simon from being pulled down . That means he is not slipping down but tends to be towed down . So in equilibrium , force of friction will act in upward direction on Simon.

Let in equilibrium , tension in rope be T

For balancing Joe

T = M g

For balancing Simon

friction + T = mgsinθ

μmgcosθ+T = mgsinθ

μmgcosθ+Mg = mgsinθ

M = (msinθ - μmcosθ)

M = m(sinθ - μcosθ)
