We have that The ratio U1/U2 of their potential energies due to their interactions with Q is

$U1/U2=6$
$U1/U2=6$

From the question we are told that

Question 1

Charge q1 is distance r from a positive point charge Q.

Question 2

Charge q2=q1/3 is distance 2r from Q.

Charge q1 is distance s from the negative plate of a parallel-plate capacitor.

Charge q2=q1/3 is distance 2s from the negative plate.

Generally the equation for the potential energy is mathematically given as

$U=\frac{-k*qQ}{r}$

Therefore

The Equations of U1 and U2 is

For U1

$U1=\frac{-k*q_1Q}{r}$

For U2

$U2=\frac{-k*q_1Q}{3*2r}$

Since

U is a function of q and q2=q1/3

Therefore

$U1/U2=6$

For Question 2

For U1

$U1=\frac{-k*q_1Q}{s}\\\\For U2\\\\U2=\frac{-k*q_1Q}{3*2r}$

Therefore

$U1/U2=6$

A merry-go-round with a a radius of R = 1.63 m and moment of inertia I = 196 kg-m2 is spinning with an initial angular speed of

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

1) L = 299.88 kg-m²/s

2) L = 613.2 kg-m²/s

3) L = 499.758 kg-m²/s

4) ω₁ = 0.769 rad/s

5) Fc = 70.3686 N

6) v = 1.2535 m/s

7) ω₀ = 1.53 rad/s

Explanation:

Given

R = 1.63 m

I₀ = 196 kg-m²

ω₀ = 1.53 rad/s

m = 73 kg

v = 4.2 m/s

1) What is the magnitude of the initial angular momentum of the merry-go-round?

We use the equation

L = I₀*ω₀ = 196 kg-m²*1.53 rad/s = 299.88 kg-m²/s

2) What is the magnitude of the angular momentum of the person 2 meters before she jumps on the merry-go-round?

We use the equation

L = m*v*Rp = 73 kg*4.2 m/s*2.00 m = 613.2 kg-m²/s

3) What is the magnitude of the angular momentum of the person just before she jumps on to the merry-go-round?

We use the equation

L = m*v*R = 73 kg*4.2 m/s*1.63 m = 499.758 kg-m²/s

4) What is the angular speed of the merry-go-round after the person jumps on?

We can apply The Principle of Conservation of Angular Momentum

L in = L fin

⇒ I₀*ω₀ = I₁*ω₁

where

I₁ = I₀ + m*R²

⇒ I₀*ω₀ = (I₀ + m*R²)*ω₁

Now, we can get ω₁

⇒ ω₁ = I₀*ω₀ / (I₀ + m*R²)

⇒ ω₁ = 196 kg-m²*1.53 rad/s / (196 kg-m² + 73 kg*(1.63 m)²)

⇒ ω₁ = 0.769 rad/s

5) Once the merry-go-round travels at this new angular speed, with what force does the person need to hold on?

We have to get the centripetal force as follows

Fc = m*ω²*R

⇒ Fc = 73 kg*(0.769 rad/s)²*1.63 m = 70.3686 N

6) Once the person gets half way around, they decide to simply let go of the merry-go-round to exit the ride.

What is the linear velocity of the person right as they leave the merry-go-round?

we can use the equation

v = ω₁*R = 0.769 rad/s*1.63 m = 1.2535 m/s

7) What is the angular speed of the merry-go-round after the person lets go?

ω₀ = 1.53 rad/s

It comes back to its initial angular speed

What principles of science (like facts, laws, and theories) might help explain why similar investigations conducted in many part

natulia [17]

Answer:

Reproducibility of research

Explanation:

The principle of science that explains why similar experimental investigations conducted in different parts of the world could result in the same outcome is referred to as reproducibility.

<em>A good research or experiment in science must be reproducible, otherwise, the outcome of such an experiment might become inadmissible within the scientific community. It is a core principle of the scientific method that similar results should be obtained when an experiment or observational study conducted in one place is repeated in another place with the same procedure. Hence, an experiment must be reproducible in science in order for the outcome of such an experiment to be part of the general scientific knowledge. </em>

The deuterium nucleus starts out with a kinetic energy of 1.24 × 10-13 joules, and the proton starts out with a kinetic energy o

MrMuchimi

Answer:

The total kinetic energy of both particles is $2.43\times10^{-13}$

Explanation:

Given that,

Kinetic energy of nucleus $K.E= 1.24\times10^{-13}\ J$

Kinetic energy of proton $K.E= 2.47\times10^{-13}\ J$

Radius of proton $r= 0.9\times10^{-15}\ m$

We need to calculate the final potential energy

Using formula of final potential energy

$U=\dfrac{kq^2}{r}$

Put the value into the formula

$U_{f}=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times(1.6\times10^{-19})^2}{2\times0.9\times10^{-15}}$

$U_{f}=1.28\times10^{-13}\ J$

We need to calculate the initial energy of both the particles

Using formula of energy

$E_{i}=(K.E_{n}+K.E_{p})+U_{i}$

$E_{i}=1.24\times10^{-13}+2.47\times10^{-13}+0$

$E_{i}=3.71\times10^{-13}\ J$

We need to calculate the total kinetic energy of both particles

Using conservation of energy

$E_{i}=E_{f}$

$E_{i}=K.E_{f}+U_{f}$

$3.71\times10^{-13}=K.E_{f}+1.28\times10^{-13}$

$K.E_{f}=3.71\times10^{-13}-1.28\times10^{-13}$

$K.E_{f}=2.43\times10^{-13}$

Hence, The total kinetic energy of both particles is $2.43\times10^{-13}$

When a vertical beam of light passes through a transparent medium, the rate at which its intensity I decreases is proportional t

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

Intensity of beam 18 feet below the surface is about 0.02%

Explanation:

Using Lambert's law

Let dI / dt = kI, where k is a proportionality constant, I is intensity of incident light and t is thickness of the medium

then dI / I = kdt

taking log,

ln(I) = kt + ln C

I = Ce^kt

t=0=>I=I(0)=>C=I(0)

I = I(0)e^kt

t=3 & I=0.25I(0)=>0.25=e^3k

k = ln(0.25)/3

k = -1.386/3

k = -0.4621

I = I(0)e^(-0.4621t)

I(18) = I(0)e^(-0.4621*18)

I(18) = 0.00024413I(0)

Intensity of beam 18 feet below the surface is about 0.2%
