Answer:

625000 N/ m

Explanation:

m= 20 kg

v= 30 m/s

x= 12 cm

k = ?

Here when the mass when hits at spring its speed is

Vi= 30 m/s

Finally it comes to rest after compressing for 12 cm

i-e Vf = 0 m/s

Distance= S= 12 cm = 0.12 m

using

2aS= Vf2 - Vi2

==> 2a ×0.12 = o- 30 × 30

==> a = 900 ÷ 0.24 = 3750 m/sec2

Now we know;

F = ma

F= -Kx

==> ma= -kx

==> 20 × 3750 = -K × 0.12

==> k = 625000 N/ m

Answer:

order   d> a = e> c> b = f

Explanation:

Pascal's law states that a change in pressure is transmitted by a liquid, all points are transmitted regardless of the form

      P₁ = P₂

Using the definition of pressure

      F₁ / A₁ = F₂ / A₂

      F₂ = A₂ /A₁   F₁

Now we can examine the results

a) F1 = 4.0 N A1 = 0.9 m2 A2 = 1.8 m2

     F₂ = 1.8 / 0.9 4

     F₂a = 8 N

b) F1 = 2.0 N A1 = 0.9 m2 A2 = 0.45 m2

    F₂b = 0.45 / 0.9 2

    F₂b = 1 N

c) F1 2.0 N A1 = 1.8 m2 A2 = 3.6 m2

    F₂c = 3.6 / 1.8 2

    F₂c = 4 N

d) F1 = 4.0N A1 = 0.45 m2 A2 = 1.8 m2

    F₂d = 1.8 / 0.45 4.0

    F₂d = 16 m2

e) F1 = 4.0 N A1 = 0.45 m2 A2 = 0.9 m2

   F₂e = 0.9 / 0.45 4

   F₂e = 8 N

f) F1 = 2.0N A1 = 1.8 m2 A2 = 0.9 m2

   F₂f = 0.9 / 1.8 2.0

   F₂f = 1 N

Let's classify the structure from highest to lowest

F₂d> F₂a = F₂e> F₂c> F₂b = F₂f

I mean the combinations are

 d> a = e> c> b = f

Answer:

y = 54.9 m

Explanation:

For this exercise we can use the relationship between the work of the friction force and mechanical energy.

Let's look for work

      W = -fr d

The negative sign is because Lafourcade rubs always opposes the movement

On the inclined part, of Newton's second law

Y Axis  

      N - W cos θ  = 0

The equation for the force of friction is

      fr = μ N

      fr = μ mg cos θ

We replace at work

     W = - μ m g cos θ  d

Mechanical energy in the lower part of the embankment

      Em₀ = K = ½ m v²

The mechanical energy in the highest part, where it stopped

     Em_{f} = U = m g y

     W = ΔEm =  Em_{f} - Em₀

    - μ m g d cos θ = m g y - ½ m v²

Distance d and height (y) are related by trigonometry

     sin θ = y / d

     y = d sin θ

   

    - μ m g d cos θ = m g d sin θ - ½ m v²

We calculate the distance traveled

     d (g syn θ + μ g cos θ) = ½ v²

     d = v²/2 g (sintea + myy cos tee)

     d = 9.8 12.6 2/2 9.8 (sin16 + 0.128 cos 16)

     d = 1555.85 /7.8145

     d = 199.1 m

Let's use trigonometry to find the height

      sin 16 = y / d

      y = d sin 16

      y = 199.1 sin 16

      y = 54.9 m

A long coaxial cable (Fig. 2.26) carries a uniform volume charge density rho on the inner cylinder (radius a), and a uniform sur
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

a) E = ρ / e0

b) E = ρ*a / (e0 * r)

c) E = 0

Explanation:

Because of the geometry, the electric field lines will all have a radial direction.

Using Gauss law

Q/e0 = \int \int E * dA

Using a Gaussian surface that is cylinder concentric to the cable, the side walls will have a flux of zero, because the electric field lines will be perpendicular. The round wall of the cylinder will have the electric field lines normal to it.

We can make this cylinder of different radii to evaluate the electric field at different points.

Then:

A = 2*π*r (area of cylinder per unit of length)

Q/e0 = 2*π*r*E

E = Q / (2*π*e0*r)

Where Q is the charge contained inside the cylinder.

Inside the cable core:

There is a uniform charge density ρ

Q(r) = ρ * 2*π*r

Then

E = ρ * 2*π*r / (2*π*e0*r)

E = ρ / e0 (electric field is constant inside the charged cylinder.

Between ther inner cilinder and the tube:

Q = ρ * 2*π*a

E = ρ * 2*π*a / (2*π*e0*r)

E = ρ*a / (e0 * r)

Outside the tube, the charges of the core cancel each other.

E=0

Fed [463]

Answer: y = 2.4×10^-6m or y= 2.4μm

Explanation: The formulae for the distance between the central bright fringe to any other fringe in pattern is given as

y = R×mλ/d

Where y = distance between nth fringe and Central bright spot fringe.

m = position of fringe = 4

λ = wavelength of light= 600nm = 600×10^-9 m

d = distance between slits = 1.50×10^-5m

R = distance between slit and screen = 2m

y = 2 × 4 × 600×10^-9/2

y = 4800×10^-9/2

y = 2400 × 10^-9

y = 2.4×10^-6m or y= 2.4μm

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

a)  Q = 397.57 pC , Q = 3.18 104 pC , b) C = 1.157 10⁻¹⁰ F ,  V = 3.4375 V ,

c)  U = 54.7 nJ ,  d) ΔU = 54 nJ,

Explanation:

a) The capacity of a capacitor is defined

        C = Q / V

        Q = C V

         

can also be calculated using geometry consideration

        C = e or A / d

         

we reduce to the SI system

       A = 25.0 cm² (1 m / 10² cm) 2 = 25.0 10⁻⁴ m²

       d = 1.53 cm = 1.53 10⁻² m

we substitute

         Q = eo A / d V

         Q = 8.85 10⁻¹² 25 10⁻⁴ / 1.53 10⁻² 275

         Q = 3.9757 10⁻¹⁰ C

         

let's reduce to pC

         Q = 3.9757 10⁻¹⁰ C (10¹² pC / 1 C)

          Q = 397.57 pC

when the capacitor is introduced into the water the dielectric constant is different

           Q = k Q₀

           Q = 80 397.57

           Q = 3.18 104 pC

b) Find capacitance and voltage after submerged in water

           C = k C₀

           C = 80 8.85 10⁻¹² 25 10⁻⁴ / 1.53 10⁻²

           C = 1.157 10⁻¹⁰ F

           V = Vo / k

            V = 275/80

            V = 3.4375 V

c) The stored energy is

             U = ½ C V²

              U = ½, 85 10⁻¹² 25 10⁻⁴ / 1.53 10⁻²     275²

             U = 5.47 10⁻⁸ J

let's reduce to nJ

              109 nJ = 1 J

               U = 54.7 nJ

d) energy after submerging

             U = ½ (kCo) (Vo / k) 2

             U = ½ Co Vo2 / k

             U = U₀ / k

             U = 54.7 / 80 nJ

              U = 0.68375 nJ

the energy change is

         ΔU = U₀ -U

          ΔU = 54.7 - 0.687375
