An electron is located in an electric field of magnitude 600. newtons per coulomb. what is the magnitude of the electrostatic fo

SOVA2 [1]

The magnitude of the electrostatic force acting on a charge q is the product between the charge and the intensity of the electric field E. The magnitude of the electron charge is $q=1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C$ (we are not interested in the sign), so the electrostatic force magnitude is
$F=qE=(1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C)(600 N/C)=9.6\cdot 10^{-17}N$

For sprinters running at 12 m/s around a curved track of radius 26 m, how much greater (as a percentage) is the average total fo

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

114.86%

Explanation:

In both cases, there is a vertical force equal to the sprinter's weight:

Fy = mg

When running in a circle, there is an additional centripetal force:

Fx = mv²/r

The net force is found with Pythagorean theorem:

F² = Fx² + Fy²

F² = (mv²/r)² + (mg)²

F² = m² ((v²/r)² + g²)

F = m √((v²/r)² + g²)

Compared to just the vertical force:

F / Fy

m √((v²/r)² + g²) / mg

√((v²/r)² + g²) / g

Given v = 12 m/s, r = 26 m, and g = 9.8 m/s²:

√((12²/26)² + 9.8²) / 9.8

1.1486

The force is about 114.86% greater (round as needed).

A child of mass m is at the edge of a merry-go-round of diameter d. When the merry-go-round is rotating with angular acceleratio

dem82 [27]

Answer:

The torque on the child is now the same, τ.

Explanation:

It can be showed that the external torque applied by a net force on a rigid body, is equal to the product of the moment of inertia of the body with respect to the axis of rotation, times the angular acceleration.
In this case, as the movement of the child doesn't create an external torque, the torque must remain the same.
The moment of inertia is the sum of the moment of inertia of the merry-go-round (the same that for a solid disk) plus the product of the mass of the child times the square of the distance to the center.
When the child is standing at the edge of the merry-go-round, the moment of inertia is as follows:

$I_{to} = I_{d} + m*r^{2} = m*\frac{r^{2}}{2} + m*r^{2} = \frac{3}{2}* m*r^{2} (1)$

So, τ = 3/2*m*r²*α (2)

When the child moves to a position half way between the center and the edge of the merry-go-round, the moment of inertia of the child decreases, as the distance to the center is less than before, as follows:

$I_{t} = I_{d} + m*\frac{r^{2}}{4} = m*\frac{r^{2}}{2} + m*\frac{r^{2}}{4} = \frac{3}{4}* m*r^{2} (3)$

Since the angular acceleration increases from α to 2*α, we can write the torque expression as follows:

τ = 3/4*m*r² * (2α) = 3/2*m*r²

same result than in (2), so the torque remains the same.

A car of mass 1100kg moves at 24 m/s. What is the braking force needed to bring the car to a halt in 2.0 seconds? N

LenaWriter [7]

13200N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass = 1100kg

Velocity = 24m/s

time = 2s

unknown:

Braking force = ?

Solution:

The braking force is the force needed to stop the car from moving.

Force = ma = $\frac{mv}{t}$

m is the mass of the car

v is the velocity

t is the time taken

Force = $\frac{1100 x 24}{2}$ = 13200N
