An electron is held up against the force of gravity by the attraction of a fixed proton some distance above it. How far above the electron is the proton

Answers

5.08 m

Explanation:

The weight of the electron is being counteracted by the attractive electrostatic force exerted by the proton above it. We can write the force equation as follows:

[tex]m_eg = k_e\dfrac{Q_pQ_e}{r^2}[/tex]

where the Q's are the charges of the proton and electron, r is the distance between the particles, g is the acceleration due to gravity, [tex]m_e[/tex] is the mass of the electrons and [tex]k_e[/tex] is the Coulomb constant. So solving for r, we get

[tex]r^2 = k_e\dfrac{Q_pQ_e}{m_eg}[/tex]

Taking the square root of r^2, we then get the distance as

[tex]r = \sqrt{k_e\dfrac{Q_pQ_e}{m_eg}}[/tex]

The values are given as follows:

[tex]m_e = 9.11×10^{-31}\:\text{kg}[/tex]

[tex]g = 9.8\:\text{m/s}^2[/tex]

[tex]Q_p = Q_e = 1.60×10^{-19}\:\text{C}[/tex]

[tex]k_e = 8.99×10^9\:\text{N-m}^2\text{/C}^2[/tex]

Putting in all of these values in our equation for r,

[tex]r = \sqrt{\dfrac{(8.99×10^9\:\text{N-m}^2\text{/C}^2)(1.60×10^{-19}\:\text{C})^2}{(9.11×10^{-31}\:\text{kg})(9.8\:\text{m/s}^2)}}[/tex]

A pumpkin is launched in the air and travels at a horizontal velocity of 25 meters per second for 5 seconds. How far does it travel horizontally?

Answers

Answer:

30.3 meters, 172 degrees

Explanation:

To insure the most accurate solution, this problem is best solved using a calculator and trigonometric principles. The first step is to determine the sum of all the horizontal (east-west) displacements and the sum of all the vertical (north-south) displacements.

Horizontal: 2.0 meters, West + 31.0 meters, West + 3.0 meters, East = 30.0 meters, West

Vertical: 12.0 meters, North + 8.0 meters, South = 4.0 meters, North

The series of five displacements is equivalent to two displacements of 30 meters, West and 4 meters, North. The resultant of these two displacements can be found using the Pythagorean theorem (for the magnitude) and the tangent function (for the direction). A non-scaled sketch is useful for visualizing the situation.

Applying the Pythagorean theorem leads to the magnitude of the resultant (R).

R2 = (30.0 m)2 + (4.0 m)2 = 916 m2

R = Sqrt(916 m2)

R = 30.3 meters

The angle theta in the diagram above can be found using the tangent function.

tangent(theta) = opposite/adjacent = (4.0 m) / (30.0 m)

tangent(theta) = 0.1333

theta = invtan(0.1333)

theta = 7.59 degrees

This angle theta is the angle between west and the resultant. Directions of vectors are expressed as the counterclockwise angle of rotation relative to east. So the direction is 7.59 degrees short of 180 degrees. That is, the direction is ~172 degrees.

5) You pull a 10.0 kg wagon along a flat road. You exert a force of 80.0 N at an angle of 30.0 degrees above the horizontal while you move the wagon 10.0 m forward. The coefficient of friction between the wagon and road is 0.500. Calculate the work down by you and the work done by friction.

Answers

Consult the attached free body diagram. The only forces doing work on the wagon are the frictional force opposing the wagon's motion and the horizontal component of the applied force.

By Newton's second law, the net vertical force is

• ∑ F [v] = n + (80.0 N) sin(30.0°) - mg = 0

where a is the acceleration of the wagon.

Solve for n (the magnitude of the normal force) :

n = (10.0 kg) g - (80.0 N) sin(30.0°) = 58.0 N

Then

f = 0.500 (58.0 N) = 29.0 N

Meanwhile, the horizontal component of the applied force has magnitude

(80.0 N) cos(30.0°) ≈ 69.3 N

Now calculate the work done by either force.

• friction: -(29.0 N) (10.0 m) = -290. J

• pull: (69.3 N) (10.0 m) = 693 J

A 5 kg bowling ball travelling at 2 m/s hits a motionless 10 kg bowling ball. If the smaller ball bounces back at a speed of -1 m/s, what will be the speed of larger ball after the collision? Hint: Use the conservation of momentum equation to solve this problem.

Answers

Answer:

  1.5 m/s

Explanation:

Conservation of momentum means the momentum of the system before the collision is the same as after.

The before, after momentum of each ball is ...

  5 kg ball: (5 kg)(2 m/s), (5 kg)(-1 m/s)

  10 kg ball: (10 kg)(0 m/s), (10 kg)(v)

The sum of the "before" products is the same as the sum of the "after" products:

  (5 kg)(2 m/s) +0 = (5 kg)(-1 m/s) +(10 kg)v

  (10 +5) kg·m/s = (10 kg)·v . . . . . add (5 kg)(1 m/s) to both sides

  v = (15 kg·m/s)/(10 kg) = 1.5 m/s

The speed of the larger ball will be 1.5 m/s. Its direction of motion will be the opposite of that of the 5 kg ball after the collision.

Answers

Este problema está describiendo una turbina de vapor a la que entra vapor a 30 kg/s, 6.205 kPa y 811 K con una velocidad de 10 m/s y sale a 9.859 kPa, 318.8 K y con una velocidad de 200 m/s. Adicionalmente, tanto el volumen específico como la energía interna son dados para ambas corrientes.

Con lo anterior, resulta posible escribir un balance de energía para esta turbina, despreciando todo efecto por energía potencial ya que no hay diferencia significativa entre la altura de la entrada (1) y la salida (2), pues están practicamente al mismo nivel:

[tex]mh_1+\frac{1}{2} mv^2_1=mh_2+\frac{1}{2} mv^2_2+Q_2+W_2[/tex]

Aquí vemos que la incógnita es [tex]W_2[/tex] como la potencia que produce la turbina. Ahora, el primer cáculo a realizar es el de las entalpías de las corrientes de entrada y salida, dada la energía interna, presión y volumen específico:

[tex]h_1=3150.3\frac{kJ}{kg}+6205kPa*0.05789\frac{m^3}{kg} =3509.51\frac{kJ}{kg}\\\\h_2=2211.8\frac{kJ}{kg}+9.859kPa*13.36\frac{m^3}{kg} =2342.72\frac{kJ}{kg}[/tex]

Ahora, podemos reacomodar el balance de energía con el fin de resolver [tex]W_2[/tex]:

[tex]W_2=m(h_1-h_2)+\frac{1}{2} m(v^2_1-v^2_2)-Q_2[/tex]

Finalmente, reemplazamos los valores para obtener:

[tex]W_2=10\frac{kg}{s} (3509.51-2342.72)\frac{kJ}{kg} +\frac{1}{2} *10\frac{kg}{s} [(10\frac{m}{s}) ^2-(200\frac{m}{s} )^2]*\frac{1kJ}{1000J} -30\frac{kJ}{s}\\\\W_2=11438.4 kJ/s=11438.4kW[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

P1 = 1.3 (500 + 60) = 728 kg-m      total momentum to right at start

P2 = (v2 - 10) 60 + 500 v2

total momentum after running at -10 with respect to cart = 728 where v2 is the new speed of the cart

728 = 560 v2 - 600

v2 = 1328 / 560 = 2.37 m/s    new speed of cart

Check:

After:    p2 for cart = 500 * 2.37 = 1186

p1 for man = (2.37 - 10) * 60 = -458

P2 = p1 + p2 = 728       total momentum unchanged

We have seen in earlier readings how to determine the speed of a wave on a string. What will happen to the wavelength of a sinusoidal wave on a string if the tension in the string is increased (assuming we keep the frequency of the wave the same)

Answers

This question involves the concepts of tension in a string and the wavelength of the wave in a string.

The wavelength of a sinusoidal wave will "increase by square power" on a string if the tension in the string is increased when the frequency is kept constant.

The speed of a wave on a string is given by the following formula:

[tex]v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}[/tex]

where,

v = speed of wave = fλ

f = frequency of the wave

λ = wavelength of the wave

T = tension force

μ = linear mass density of the string

Therefore,

[tex]f\lambda=\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}\\\\T = f^2\lambda^2\mu[/tex]

It is given that the frequency is kept constant. The linear mass density is also constant for a string. Therefore,

[tex]T=(constant)\lambda^2\\T\ \alpha\ \lambda^2[/tex]
