and continues along the highway. What is the car’s position relative to the start of its trip 0.25 h after it passes the gas station?

x_total = 23250 m Explanation: This problem pertains to uniform motion, describable by the equation v = x / t. In terms of position, we utilize x = vt. First, converting to SI units, with v = 85 km/h converted to meters per second becomes v = 23.61 m/s; time at t = 0.25 h translates to 900 seconds. Next, to find x₁: x₁ = vt₁ yields x₁ = 23.61 * 900; which equals 21250 m. The overall distance from the starting point is calculated as x_total = x_station + x₁, resulting in x_total = 2000 + 21250 = 23250 m.

An air hockey game has a puck of mass 30 grams and a diameter of 100 mm. The air film under the puck is 0.1 mm thick. Calculate
inna [2995]

Answer:

the time it takes after impact for the puck is 2.18 seconds

Explanation:

initially given information

mass = 30 g = 0.03 kg

diameter = 100 mm = 0.1 m

thickness = 0.1 mm = 1 ×10^{-4} m

dynamic viscosity = 1.75 ×10^{-5} Ns/m²

temperature of air = 15°C

to determine

time needed for the puck to reduce its speed by 10%

solution

we note that velocity changes from 0 to v

assuming initial velocity = v

therefore final velocity = 0.9v

implying a change in velocity is du = v

and clearance dy = h

shear stress acting on the surface is expressed as

= µ \frac{du}{dy}

therefore

= µ \frac{v}{h}............1

substituting the values

= 1.75 ×10^{-5} × \frac{v}{10^{-4}}

= 0.175 v

the area between the air and puck is given by

Area = \frac{\pi }{4} d^{2}

area = \frac{\pi }{4} 0.1^{2}

area = 7.85 × \frac{v}{10^{-3}} m²

thus, the force on the puck can be represented as

Force = × area

force = 0.175 v × 7.85 × 10^{-3}

force = 1.374 × 10^{-3} v

now applying Newton's second law

force = mass × acceleration

- force = mass \frac{dv}{dt}

- 1.374 × 10^{-3} v = 0.03 \frac{0.9v - v }{t}

solving for t = \frac{0.1 v * 0.03}{1.37*10^{-3} v}

the time needed after impact for the puck is 2.18 seconds

A spring is stretched 6 in by a mass that weighs 8 lb. The mass is attached to a dashpot mechanism that has a damping constant o
Ostrovityanka [3082]

Response:

y= 240/901 cos 2t+ 8/901 sin 2t

Clarification:

To determine mass m=weight/g

  m=8/32=0.25

To calculate the spring constant

Kx=mg    (with c=6 inches and mg=8 pounds)

K(0.5)=8               (6 inches converts to 0.5 feet)

K=16 lb/ft

The governing equation for the spring-mass system is

my''+Cy'+Ky=F  

Inserting the known values yields

0.25 y"+0.25 y'+16 y=4 cos 20 t  ----(1) (given C=0.25 lb.s/ft)

Assuming the steady state equation for y is

y=A cos 2t+ B sin 2t

To determine constants A and B, we must equate this with equation 1.

Next, we find y' and y" by differentiating with respect to t.

y'= -2A sin 2t+2B cos 2t

y"=-4A cos 2t-4B sin 2t

Now, substitute the values of y", y' and y into equation 1

0.25 (-4A cos 2t-4B sin 2t)+0.25(-2A sin 2t+2B cos 2t)+16(A cos 2t+ B sin 2t)=4 cos 20 t

By comparing coefficients on both sides

30 A+ B=8

A-30 B=0

From this, we find

A=240/901 and B=8/901

Thus, the steady state response

y= 240/901 cos 2t+ 8/901 sin 2t

1. Use Coulomb’s Law (equation below) to calculate the approximate force felt by an electron at point A in the schematic below.
Keith_Richards [3153]

Answer:

Explanation:

The data indicates that point A is located midway between two charges.

To calculate the electric field at point A, we begin with the field produced by charge -Q ( 6e⁻ ) at A:

= 9 x 10⁹ x 6 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ / (2.5)² x 10⁻⁴

= 13.82 x 10⁻⁶ N/C

This field points towards Q⁻.

A similar field will arise from the charge Q⁺, but it will direct away from Q⁺ toward Q⁻.

To find the resultant field, we add these contributions:

= 2 x 13.82 x 10⁻⁶

= 27.64 x 10⁻⁶ N/C

For the force acting on an electron placed at A:

= charge x field

= 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 27.64 x 10⁻⁶

= 44.22 x 10⁻²⁵ N

A 1.97-pF capacitor with a plate area of 5.86 cm2 and separation between the plates of 2.63 mm is connected to a 9.0-V battery a
inna [2995]

If the plate separation is modified after the battery is disconnected, the updated distance between plates is 9.21 mm

If changes are made while the battery remains connected, the new separation becomes 0.11 mm

The capacitance for an air-filled parallel plate capacitor can be expressed as:

C=\frac{\epsilon_0A}{d}

In this equation, \epsilon_0 refers to the permittivity of free space, A stands for the plate area, and D represents the separation distance.

Thus,

C \alpha \frac{1}{d}.......(1)

Therefore, should the distance between the plates shift from d₁ to d₂, the capacitance ratio in both scenarios can be represented as:

\frac{C_1}{C_2} =\frac{d_2}{d_1}......(2)

Scenario (i)

When the capacitor is fully charged and then disconnected from the battery before adjusting the plate distance, the charge will remain steady while the capacitance varies.

The initial energy E₁ stored in the capacitor can be expressed as:

E_1=\frac{Q^2}{2C_1}......(3)

Once the separation changes to d₂, capacitance becomes C₂, but the charge Q remains unchanged.

Thus,

E_2=\frac{Q^2}{2C_2}......(4)

By dividing equation (4) by (3),

\frac{E_2}{E_1} =\frac{C_1}{C_2}

According to equation (2),

\frac{E_2}{E_1} =\frac{C_1}{C_2}=\frac{d_2}{d_1}

This results in a 3.5 fold increase in energy.

\frac{E_2}{E_1} =\frac{d_2}{d_1}=3.5\\ d_2=3.5*2.63 mm\\ =9.205 mm=9.21 mm

Scenario (2)

If the capacitor is kept connected to the power source, the voltage V across the plates will remain unchanged.

The initial energy is described as

E_1=\frac{1}{2} C_1V^2......(5)

The final energy when the plate separation transitions to d₂ can be written as:

E_2=\frac{1}{2} C_2V^2.....(6)

Referencing equations (5) and (6)

\frac{E_2}{E_1} =\frac{C_2}{C_1}

From equation (2),

\frac{E_2}{E_1} =\frac{C_2}{C_1}=\frac{d_1}{d_2}

Thus, in this particular scenario,

\frac{E_2}{E_1} =\frac{d_1}{d_2}\\d_2=\frac{d_1}{3.5} \\ =\frac{2.63 mm}{3.5} \\ =0.109 mm=0.11 mm

Therefore,

Adjusting plate separation after battery disconnection yields 9.21 mm

If modified while connected, the new separation measures 0.11 mm

The iron ball shown is being swung in a vertical circle at the end of a 0.7-m string. how slowly can the ball go through its top
Keith_Richards [3153]
<span>A centripetal force maintains an object's circular motion. When the ball is at the highest point, we can assume that the ball's speed v is such that the weight of the ball matches the required centripetal force to keep it moving in a circle. Hence, the string will not become slack. centripetal force = weight of the ball m v^2 / r = m g v^2 / r = g v^2 = g r v = sqrt { g r } v = sqrt { (9.80~m/s^2) (0.7 m) } v = 2.62 m/s Thus, the minimum speed for the ball at the top position is 2.62 m/s.</span>
