Answer:

The young tree, originally bent, has been brought into the vertical position by adjusting the three guy-wire tensions to AB = 7 lb, AC = 8 lb, and AD = 10 lb. Determine the force and moment reactions at the trunk base point O. Neglect the weight of the tree.

<span>At time t1 = 0 since the body is at rest, the body has an angular velocity, v1, of 0. At time t = X, the body has an angular velocity of 1.43rad/s2. Since Angular acceleration is just the difference in angular speed by time. We have 4.44 = v2 -v1/t2 -t1 where V and t are angular velocity and time. So we have 4.44 = 1.43 -0/X - 0. Hence X = 1.43/4.44 = 0.33s.</span>

Answer:

The angle between shuttle's velocity and the Earth's field is $\theta = 24.2^o$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The length of eire let out is $L = 250 \ m$

The emf generated is $\epsilon = 40 V$

The earth magnetic field is $B = 5.0 *10^{-5} T$

The speed of the shuttle and tether is $v = 7.80 * 10^3 \ m/s$

The emf generated is mathematically represented as

$\epsilon = L\ v\ B\ sin \ \theta$

making $\theta$ the subject of the formula

$\theta = sin ^{-1}[ \frac{\epsilon}{L * B *v} ]$

substituting values

$\theta = sin ^{-1}[ \frac{40}{250 * (5*10^{-5}) *(7.80 *10^{3})} ]$

$\theta = 24.2^o$

Setler [38]

<u>Answer:</u>

Option: D. Gravity is pulling the crash test dummy in the direction the car is moving.

<u>Explanation: </u>

When a car accelerates from a standing start, the crash test dummy appears to be pressed backward into the seat cushion because the gravity is pulling the crash test dummy in the direction the car is moving.

Basically when the car is starting, the person inside is in static position and the car is going to move. So it is putting a force on the person to move on the same speed. But as the person is sitting static hence gravity is pulling him behind from moving. Hence, The dummy appears to be pressed backward.

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Though fiber active cable is based on the concept of internal reflection but it is achieved by refractive index which transmit data through fast traveling pulses of light. It has a layer of glass and insulating casing called “cladding,”and this is is wrapped around the central fiber thereby causing light to continuously bounce back from the walls of the Cable.

A stationary particle of charge q = 2.1 × 10-8 c is placed in a laser beam (an electromagnetic wave) whose intensity is 2.9 × 10

alisha [4.7K]

(a) The intensity of the electromagnetic wave is related to the amplitude of the electric field by
$I= \frac{1}{2} c \epsilon_0 E^2$
where
I is the intensity
c is the speed of light
$\epsilon_0$ is the electric permittivity
E is the amplitude of the electric field

By substituting the numbers of the problem and re-arranging the equation, we can find E:
$E= \frac{2 I}{c \epsilon_0} = \frac{2 ( 2.9 \cdot 10^3 Wm^{-2})}{(3 \cdot 10^8 m/s)(8.85 \cdot 10^{-12} Fm^{-1})} =2.2 \cdot 10^6 N/C$

Now that we have the intensity of the electric field, we can calculate the electric force on the charge:
$F=qE=(2.1 \cdot 10^{-8} C)(2.2 \cdot 10^6 N/C)=0.046 N$

(b) We can calculate the amplitude of the magnetic field starting from the amplitude of the electric field:
$B= \frac{E}{c}= \frac{2.2 \cdot 10^6 N/C}{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}=7.3 \cdot 10^{-3} T$

The magnetic force is given by
$F=qvB \sin \theta$
where v is the particle's speed, B the magnetic field intensity and $\theta$ the angle between B and v.
In this case the charge is stationary, so v=0, and so the magnetic force is zero: F=0.

(c) The electric force has not changed compared to point (a), because it does not depend on the speed of the particle, so we have again F=0.046 N.

(d) This time, the particle is moving with speed $v=3.7 \cdot 10^4 m/s$ , in a direction perpendicular to the magnetic field (so, the angle $\theta$ is $90^{\circ}$ ), and so by using the intensity of the magnetic field we found in point (b), we can calculate the magnetic force on the particle:
$F=qvB \sin \theta = (2.1 \cdot 10^{-8}C)(3.7 \cdot 10^4 m/s)(7.3 \cdot 10^{-3} T)(\sin 90^{\circ} )=$
$=5.7 \cdot 10^{-6} N$
