<span>Waves hitting at an angle and then bending around features of the coast is known as Wave refraction
When waves hitting a specific angle, some part of the waves will be closer to the shallow part of the water and some part will be closer to the deeper part of the water, which makes the wave became somehow bent around the shore.</span>

Two tiny particles having charges 20.0 μC and 8.00 μC are separated by a distance of 20.0 cm What are the magnitude and directio

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

The magnitude and direction of electric field midway between these two charges is $10.8\times10^{5}\ N/C$ along AB.

Explanation:

Given that,

First charge $q_{1}= 20\mu C$

second charge $q_{2}= 8\mu C$

Distance = 20 cm

We need to calculate the electric field

For first charge,

Using formula of electric field

$E_{1}= \dfrac{kq_{1}}{r^2}$

Put the valueinto the formula

$E_{1}=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times20\times10^{-6}}{10\times10^{-2}}$

$E_{1}=18\times10^{5}\ N/C$

Direction of electric field along AB

We need to calculate the electric field

For second charge,

Using formula of electric field

$E_{2}= \dfrac{kq_{2}}{r^2}$

Put the valueinto the formula

$E_{2}=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times8\times10^{-6}}{10\times10^{-2}}$

$E_{2}=7.2\times10^{5}\ N/C$

Direction of electric field along AO

We need to calculate the net electric field at midpoint

$E_{net}=E_{1}-E_{2}$

$E_{net}=(18-7.2)\times10^{5}\ N/C$

$E_{net}=10.8\times10^{5}\ N/C$

Direction of net electric field along AB

Hence, The magnitude and direction of electric field midway between these two charges is $10.8\times10^{5}\ N/C$ along AB.

A car drives at a constant speed around a banked circular track with a diameter of 136 m . The motion of the car can be describe

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

speed = 44.9m/s

x = 35.5 m, y = 58.0m

Explanation:

A car on a circular track with constant angular velocity ω can be described by the equation of position r:

$\overrightarrow {r(t)} = Rsin(\omega t)\hat{i} + Rcos(\omega t)\hat{j}$

The velocity v is given by:

$\overrightarrow {v(t)} = \overrightarrow{\frac{dr}{dt}}= \omega Rcos(\omega t)\hat{i} - \omega Rsin(\omega t)\hat{j}$

The acceleration a:

$\overrightarrow {a(t)} = \overrightarrow{\frac{dv}{dt}}= -\omega^2 Rsin(\omega t)\hat{i} - \omega^2 Rcos(\omega t)\hat{j}$

From the given values we get two equations:

$-\omega^2 Rsin(\omega t)=-15.4\\-\omega^2 Rcos(\omega t)=-25.4$

We also know:

$\overrightarrow {a(t)} = -\omega^2 Rsin(\omega t)\hat{i} - \omega^2 Rcos(\omega t)\hat{j}=-\omega^2\overrightarrow{r(t)}$

The magnitude of the acceleration a is:

$a=\sqrt{(-15.4)^2+(-25.4)^2}=29.7$

The magnitude of position r is:

$r=R=68m$

Plugging in to the equation for a(t):

$\overrightarrow {a(t)} =-\omega^2\overrightarrow{r(t)}$

and solving for ω:

$|\omega|=0.66$

Now solve for time t:

$\frac{sin(0.66t)}{cos(0.66t)}=tan(0.66t)=\frac{15.4}{25.4}\\t=0.83$

Using the calculated values to compute v(t):

$\overrightarrow {v(t)}= \omega Rcos(\omega t)\hat{i} - \omega Rsin(\omega t)\hat{j}\\\overrightarrow {v(t)}=44.88cos(0.55)\hai{i}-44.88sin(0.55)\hat{j}\\\overrightarrow {v(t)}=38.3\hat{i}-23.5\hat{j}$

The speed of the car is:

$\sqrt{38.3^2 + (-23.5)^2} = 44.9$

The position r:

$\overrightarrow {r(t)} = Rsin(\omega t)\hat{i} + Rcos(\omega t)\hat{j}\\\overrightarrow {r(t)} = 68sin(0.55)\hat{i} + 68cos(0.55)\hat{j}\\\overrightarrow {r(t)} = 35.5{i} + 58.0\hat{j}$

A block moves at 5 m/s in the positive x direction and hits an identical block, initially at rest. A small amount of gunpowder h

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Speed of 1.83 m/s and 6.83 m/s

Explanation:

From the principle of conservation of momentum

$mv_o=m(v_1 + v_2)$ where m is the mass, $v_o$ is the initial speed before impact, $v_1$ and $v_2$ are velocity of the impacting object after collision and velocity after impact of the originally constant object
