Answer: The direction of the electric field, E→, is pointed in the +y direction.

Explanation:

One can use the right hand rule to illustrate the direction of travel of an electromagnetic and thereby get the directions of the electric field, magnetic field and direction of travel of the wave.

The right hand rule states that the direction of the thumb indicate the direction of travel of the electromagnetic wave (<em>in this case the -z direction</em>) and the curling of the fingers point in the direction of the magnetic field  B→ (<em>in this case the +x direction</em>), therefore, the electric field direction E→ is in the direction of the fingers which would be pointed towards the +y direction.

On an amusement park ride, passengers are seated in a horizontal circle of radius 7.5 m. The seats begin from rest and are unifo
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

a = 0.5 m/s²

Explanation:

Applying the definition of angular acceleration, as the rate of change of the angular acceleration, and as the seats begin from rest, we can get the value of the angular acceleration, as follows:

ωf = ω₀ + α*t

⇒ ωf = α*t ⇒ α = \frac{wf}{t} = \frac{1.4 rad/s}{21 s} = 0.067 rad/s2

The angular velocity, and the linear speed, are related by the following expression:

v = ω*r

Applying the definition of linear acceleration (tangential acceleration in this case) and angular acceleration, we can find a similar relationship between the tangential and angular acceleration, as follows:

a = α*r⇒ a = 0.067 rad/sec²*7.5 m = 0.5 m/s²

A 225 kg red bumper car is moving at 3.0 m/s. It hits a stationary 180 kg blue bumper car. The red and blue bumper cars combine
Alex Ar [27]

Given


m1(mass of red bumper): 225 Kg


m2 (mass of blue bumper): 180 Kg


m3(mass of green bumper):150 Kg


v1 (velocity of red bumper): 3.0 m/s


v2 (final velocity of the combined bumpers): ?




The law of conservation of momentum states that when two bodies collide with each other, the momentum of the two bodies before the collision is equal to the momentum after the collision. This can be mathemetaically represented as below:


Pa= Pb


Where Pa is the momentum before collision and Pb is the momentum after collision.


Now applying this law for the above problem we get


Momentum before collision= momentum after collision.


Momentum before collision = (m1+m2) x v1 =(225+180)x 3 = 1215 Kgm/s


Momentum after collision = (m1+m2+m3) x v2 =(225+180+150)x v2

=555v2

Now we know that Momentum before collision= momentum after collision.


Hence we get


1215 = 555 v2


v2 = 2.188 m/s


Hence the velocity of the combined bumper cars is 2.188 m/s

Optical tweezers use light from a laser to move single atoms and molecules around. Suppose the intensity of light from the tweez
Zanzabum

(a)  3.3\cdot 10^{-6} Pa

The radiation pressure exerted by an electromagnetic wave on a surface that totally absorbs the radiation is given by

p=\frac{I}{c}

where

I is the intensity of the wave

c is the speed of light

In this problem,

I=1000 W/m^2

and substituting c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s, we find the radiation pressure

p=\frac{1000 W/m^2}{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}=3.3\cdot 10^{-6}Pa

(b) 4.4\cdot 10^{-8} m/s^2

Since we know the cross-sectional area of the laser beam:

A=6.65\cdot 10^{-29}m^2

starting from the radiation pressure found at point (a), we can calculate the force exerted on a tritium atom:

F=pa=(3.3\cdot 10^{-6}Pa)(6.65\cdot 10^{-29} m^2)=2.2\cdot 10^{-34}N

And then, since we know the mass of the atom

m=5.01\cdot 10^{-27}kg

we can find the acceleration, by using Newton's second law:

a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{2.2\cdot 10^{-34} N}{5.01\cdot 10^{-27} kg}=4.4\cdot 10^{-8} m/s^2

A tennis player serves a tennis ball such that it is moving horizontally when it leaves the racquet. When the ball travels a hor
nalin [4]

Answer:

u_x=38.13\ m/s

Explanation:

Given that initially ball moves in the horizontal direction ,it means that the velocity in the vertical direction is zero.

Horizontal distance = 13 m

Vertical distance = 57 cm

Lets take time to cover 57 cm distance in vertical direction is t.

We know that g is the constant acceleration in the vertical direction so we can apply the equation of motion in the vertical direction.

S=u_yt+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

Here u_y=0

S= 57 cm

0.57=0\times t+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times t^2

t=0.34 s

Now in the horizontal direction

x=u_xt

Here x=13 m

t= 0.34 s

So

13=u_x\times 0.34

u_x=38.13\ m/s

So the initial speed of ball is 38.13 m/s.
