A negative charge is at rest at the origin of an axis system. Location x is at coordinate point (2m,3m) while location y is at (

-3m,-2m). At which location will the E-field have the greatest magnitude?

The magnitude of the E-field decreases as the square of the distance from the charge, just like gravity.

Location ' x ' is  √(2² + 3²) = √13 m  from the charge.

Location ' y ' is √ [ (-3)² + (-2)² ] = √13 m from the charge.

The magnitude of the E-field is the same at both locations.

The direction is also the same at both locations ... it points toward the origin.

3. In 1989, Michel Menin of France walked on a tightrope suspended under a
Tamiku [17]

Answer: 80m

Explanation:

Distance of balloon to the ground is 3150m

Let the distance of Menin's pocket to the ground be x

Let the distance between Menin's pocket to the balloon be y

Hence, x=3150-y------1

Using the equation of motion,

V^2= U^s + 2gs--------2

U= initial speed is 0m/s

g is replaced with a since the acceleration is under gravity (g) and not straight line (a), hence g is taken as 10m/s

40m/s is contant since U (the coin is at rest is 0) hence V =40m/s

Slotting our values into equation 2

40^2= 0^2 + 2 * 10* (3150-y)

1600 = 0 + 63000 - 20y

1600 - 63000 = - 20y

-61400 = - 20y minus cancel out minus on both sides of the equation

61400 = 20y

Hence y = 61400/20

3070m

Hence, recall equation 1

x = 3150 - 3070

80m

I hope this solve the problem.

The mass m1 enters from the left with velocity v0 and strikes a mass m2 > m1 which is initially at rest. The collision betwee
enot [183]

Answer:

1. False 2) greater than. 3) less than 4) less than

Explanation:

1)

  • As the collision is perfectly elastic, kinetic energy must be conserved.
  • The expression for the final velocity of the mass m₁, for a perfectly elastic collision, is as follows:

        v_{1f} = v_{10} *\frac{m_{1} -m_{2} }{m_{1} +m_{2}}

  • As it can be seen, as m₁ ≠ m₂, v₁f ≠ 0.

2)

  • As total momentum must be conserved, we can see that as m₂ > m₁, from the equation above the final momentum of m₁ has an opposite sign to the initial one, so the momentum of m₂ must be greater than the initial momentum of m₁, to keep both sides of the equation balanced.

3)    

  • The maximum energy stored in the in the spring is given by the following expression:

       U =\frac{1}{2} *k * A^{2}

  • where A = maximum compression of the spring.
  • This energy is always the sum of the elastic potential energy and the kinetic energy of the mass (in absence of friction).
  • When the spring is in a relaxed state, the speed of the mass is maximum, so, its kinetic energy is maximum too.
  • Just prior to compress the spring, this kinetic energy is the kinetic energy of m₂, immediately after the collision.
  • As total kinetic energy must be conserved, the following condition must be met:

       KE_{10} = KE_{1f}  + KE_{2f}

  • So, it is clear that KE₂f  < KE₁₀
  • Therefore, the maximum energy stored in the spring is less than the initial energy in m₁.

4)

  • As explained above, if total kinetic energy must be conserved:

        KE_{10} = KE_{1f}  + KE_{2f}

  • So as kinetic energy is always positive, KEf₂ < KE₁₀.

An 1876 N crate is being pushed across a level force at a constant speed by a force of 747 N. What is the coefficient of kinetic
nekit [7.7K]

The crate only moves horizontally, so its net vertical force is 0. The only forces acting in the vertical direction are the crate's weight (pointing downward) and the normal force of the surface on the crate (pointing upward). By Newton's second law, we have

∑ <em>F</em> (vertical) = <em>n</em> - <em>mg</em> = 0   →   <em>n</em> = <em>mg</em> = 1876 N

where <em>n</em> is the magnitude of the normal force.

In the horizontal direction, the crate is moving at a constant speed and thus with no acceleration, so it's completely in equilibrium and the net horizontal force is also 0. The only forces acting on it in this direction are the 747 N push (pointing in the direction of the crate's motion) and the kinetic friction opposing it (pointing in the opposite direction). By Newton's second law,

∑ <em>F</em> (horizontal) = 747 N - <em>f</em> = 0   →   <em>f</em> = 747 N

The frictional force is proportional to the normal force by a factor of the coefficient of kinetic friction, <em>µ</em>, such that

<em>f</em> = <em>µn</em>   →   <em>µ</em> = <em>f</em> / <em>n</em> = (747 N) / (1876 N) ≈ 0.398188 ≈ 0.40

Car 1 goes around a level curve at a constant speed of 65 km/h . The curve is a circular arc with a radius of 95 m . Car 2 goes
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

The radius of the curve that Car 2 travels on is 380 meters.

Explanation:

Speed of car 1, v_1=65\ km/h

Radius of the circular arc, r_1=95\ m

Car 2 has twice the speed of Car 1, v_2=130\ km/h

We need to find the radius of the curve that Car 2 travels on have to be in order for both cars to have the same centripetal acceleration. We know that the centripetal acceleration is given by :

a=\dfrac{v^2}{r}

According to given condition,

\dfrac{v_1^2}{r_1}=\dfrac{v_2^2}{r_2}

\dfrac{65^2}{95}=\dfrac{130^2}{r_2}

On solving we get :

r_2=380\ m

So, the radius of the curve that Car 2 travels on is 380 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

A transverse wave on a rope is given by y(x,t)= (0.750cm)cos(π[(0.400cm−1)x+(250s−1)t]). part a part complete find the amplitude
Pani-rosa [81]
The amplitude of a wave corresponds to its maximum oscillation of the wave itself. 
In our problem, the equation of the wave is
y(x,t)= (0.750cm)cos(\pi [(0.400cm-1)x+(250s-1)t])
We can see that the maximum value of y(x,t) is reached when the cosine is equal to 1. When this condition occurs,
y(x,t)=0.750 cm
and therefore this value corresponds to the amplitude of the wave.
