Two long conducting cylindrical shells are coaxial and have radii of 20 mm and 80 mm. The electric potential of the inner conduc

tor, with respect to the outer conductor, is +600 V. An electron is released from rest at the surface of the outer conductor. What is the speed of the electron as it reaches the inner conductor? (e = 1.60 × 10-19 C, m el = 9.11 x 10-31 kg, k = 1/4π ε0 = 8.99 × 109 N · m2/C2)

Answer: 14.52*10^6 m/s

Explanation: In order to explain this problem we have to consider the energy conservation for the electron within the coaxial cylidrical wire.

the change in potential energy for the electron; e*ΔV is  equal to energy kinetic gained for the electron so:

e*ΔV=1/2*m*v^2  v^=(2*e*ΔV/m)^1/2= (2*1.6*10^-19*600/9.1*10^-31)^1/2=14.52 *10^6 m/s

jarptica [38.1K]
Calculate the weight of the table through the equation,

   W = mg

where W is the weight, m is the mass, and g is the acceleration due to gravity. Substituting the known values,
   W = (0.44 kg)(9.8 m/s²) 
   <em>W = 4.312 N</em>

The components of this weight can be calculated through the equation,

   Wx = W(sin θ) 

and Wy = W(cos θ)

x - component:
   Wx = W(sin θ)
Substituting,
  Wx = (4.312 N)(sin 150°) = <em>2.156 N</em>

  Wy = (4.312 N)(cos 150°) =<em> -3.734 N</em>

Which of the following best describes a capacitor?
galben [10]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

The capacitor is a component which has the ability to store energy in the form of an electrical charge  making a potential difference on those two metal plates

A capacitor consists of two or more parallel conductive (metal) plates. They are electrically seperated by an insulating material (ex: air, mica,ceramic etc.) which is called as Dielectric Layer

Due to this insulating layer, DC current can not flow through the capacitor.But it allows a voltage to be present across the plates in the form of an electrical charge.

A long-distance swimmer is able to swim through still water at 4.0 km/h. She wishes to try to swim from Port Angeles, Washington
Roman55 [17]

Let \theta be the direction the swimmer must swim relative to east. Then her velocity relative to the water is

\vec v_{S/W}=\left(4.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}\right)(\cos\theta\,\vec\imath+\sin\theta\,\vec\jmath)

The current has velocity vector (relative to the Earth)

\vec v_{W/E}=\left(3.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}\right)\,\vec\imath

The swimmer's resultant velocity (her velocity relative to the Earth) is then

\vec v_{S/E}=\vec v_{S/W}+\vec v_{W/E}

\vec v_{S/E}=\left(\left(4.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}\right)\cos\theta+3.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}\right)\,\vec\imath+\left(4.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}\right)\sin\theta\,\vec\jmath

We want the resultant vector to be pointing straight north, which means its horizontal component must be 0:

\left(4.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}\right)\cos\theta+3.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}=0\implies\cos\theta=-\dfrac{3.0}{4.0}\implies\theta\approx138.59^\circ

which is approximately 41º west of north.

A 60.0-kg mass person wishes to push a 120-kg mass box across a level floor. The coefficient of static friction between the pers
Aneli [31]

Answer:

μ = 0.350

Explanation:

For the person to able to move the box, the force exerted by the person on the box must equal the force exerted by the box:

F_{p} = F_{b}

In this case, force can be calculated as a product of mass (m) by the acceleration of gravity (g) and the coefficient of static friction (μ):

m_{p}*g*\mu_{p}=m_{b}*g*\mu_{b}\\m_{p}*\mu_{p}=m_{b}*\mu_{b}\\60*0.7=120*\mu_{b}\\\mu_{b}= 0.35

Therefore, for the person to be able to push the box horizontally, the coefficient of static friction between the box and the floor should not be higher than 0.350.

Which of the following statements best describes the characteristic of the restoring force in the spring-mass system described i
Grace [21]

Answer : The restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement of the block.

Explanation :

Restoring force is defined as the force that is exerted by the spring due to its mass.

Mathematically, the restoring force can be written as :

F\propto-x

F = - k x

where,

k is the spring constant.

x is the displacement caused due to the mass.

Negative sign shows that the force is acting in opposite direction.

So, it is clear that the restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement of the block.

Hence, the correct option is (b) " The restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement of the block ".
