A toy rocket engine is securely fastened to a large puck that can glide with negligible friction over a horizontal surface, take

n as the xy plane. The 4.80-kg puck has a velocity of 1.00î m/s at one instant. Eight seconds later, its velocity is (6.00î + 6.0ĵ) m/s.(a) Assuming the rocket engine exerts a constant horizontal force, find the components of the force.

Answer:

$F=(3i+3.6j)\ N$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the puck, m = 4.8 kg

Initial velocity of the puck, $u=(1i+0j)\ m/s$

After 8 seconds, final velocity of the puck, $v=(6i+6j)\ m/s$

Let the x and y component of force is given by $F_x\ and\ F_y$ .

x component of force is given by :

$F_x=m\times \dfrac{v-u}{t}$

$F_x=4.8\times \dfrac{6-1}{8}$

$F_x=3\ N$

y component of force is given by :

$F_y=m\times \dfrac{v-u}{t}$

$F_y=4.8\times \dfrac{6-0}{8}$

$F_y=3.6\ N$

So, the component of the force is $F=(3i+3.6j)\ N$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

$r=0.053 nm=0.053\times 10^{-9} m$

$1 nm=10^{-9} m$

Charge on proton,q= $1.6\times 10^{-19} C$

a.We have to find the electric potential of the proton at the position of the electron.

We know that the electric potential

$V=\frac{kq}{r}$

Where $k=9\times 10^9$

$V=\frac{9\times 10^9\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{0.053\times 10^{-9}}$

$V=27.17 V$

B.Potential energy of electron,U= $\frac{kq_e q_p}{r}$

Where

$q_e=-1.6\times 10^{-19} c=$ Charge on electron

$q_p=q=1.6\times 10^{-19} C$ =Charge on proton

Using the formula

$U=\frac{9\times 10^9\times (-1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{0.053\times 10^{-9}}$

$U=-4.35\times 10^{-18} J$

A satellite completes one revolution of a planet in almost exactly one hour. At the end of one hour, the satellite has traveled

sesenic [268]

Velocity =

(distance between start point and end point, regardless of the route traveled) / (time spent traveling).

That distance (called the "displacement"), is 10 meters, and almost exactly 1 hour is almost exactly 3,600 seconds. So the numerical value of the velocity during that time is

(10) / (3,600) = almost exactly 0.00278 m/s

= 2.78 x 10^-3 m/s.

The electric field 1.5 cm from a very small charged object points toward the object with a magnitude of 180,000 N/C. What is the

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

q = 4.5 nC

Explanation:

given,

electric field of small charged object, E = 180000 N/C

distance between them, r = 1.5 cm = 0.015 m

using equation of electric field

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

k = 9 x 10⁹ N.m²/C²

q is the charge of the object

$q= \dfrac{Er^2}{k}$

now,

$q= \dfrac{180000\times 0.015^2}{9\times 10^9}$

q = 4.5 x 10⁻⁹ C

q = 4.5 nC

the charge on the object is equal to 4.5 nC
