There are two possible alignments of a dipole in an external electric field where the dipole is in equilibrium: when the dipole moment is parallel to the electric field and when the dipole moment is oriented opposite the electric field.
Part A
Are both alignments stable? (Consider what would happen in each case if you gave the dipole a slight twist.)
a) Yes
b) No
Part B
Based on your answer to the previous part and your experience in mechanics, in which orientation does the dipole have less potential energy?
a) The arrangement with the dipole moment parallel to the electric field has less potential energy.
b) The arrangement with the dipole moment opposite the electric field has less potential energy.
c) Both arrangements have the same potential energy.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A. (b)

B. (a)

Explanation:

The electric dipole moment is the product of charge and the length of the dipole.

The torque on the dipole placed in the external electric field is given by

torque = p E sin A

where, p is the electric dipole moment, E is the electric field, A is the angle between the field and dipole moment.

When the dipole moment is parallel to the electric field, the net torque is zero and it is said to be in stable equilibrium.

When the dipole moment is anti parallel to the electric field, the net torque is zero but the dipole is in unstable equilibrium.

So, the option (b) is correct.

Teh energy is given by

U = - p  E cos A

When the angle A is zero , the potential energy is negative and it is minimum.

Answer 2

In this exercise we have to use the knowledge about dipole to be able to mark the correct alternative for each question, in this way we find that:

A) Letter b

B) Letter a

So knowing that the electric dipole moment is the product of charge and the length of the dipole and the torque on the dipole placed in the external electric field is given by:

[tex]torque = p E sin (A)[/tex]

where:

p: the electric dipole momentE: the electric fieldA: the angle between the field and dipole moment

When the dipole moment is parallel to the electric field, the net torque is zero and it is said to be in stable equilibrium. When the dipole moment is anti parallel to the electric field, the net torque is zero but the dipole is in unstable equilibrium.

Now the energy is given by:

[tex]U = - p E cos (A)[/tex]

We can say that when the angle A is zero , the potential energy is negative and it is minimum.

Answers

Answer:

K = 0 J

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of the particle, m = 1.2 mg

The speed of the particle, [tex]v=1.62\times 10\ cm/h[/tex]

We need to find the kinetic energy of the particle at time t = 0 s.

At t = 0 s, the particle is at rest, v = 0

So,

Answer:

Explanation:

Moment of inertia of solid sphere = 2/5 m R²

m is mass and R is radius of sphere.

Putting the values

Moment of inertia of solid sphere I₁

Moment of inertia of hollow  sphere I₂

Kinetic energy of solid sphere ( both linear and rotational )

= 1/2 ( m v² + I₁ ω²)                [ ω is angular velocity of rotation ]

= 1/2 ( m v² + 2/5 m R² ω²)

= 1/2 ( m v² + 2/5 m v²)

=1/2 x 7 / 5 m v²

= 0.7 x 5 x 4² = 56 J .

This will be equal to work to be done to stop it.

Kinetic energy of hollow sphere ( both linear and rotational )

= 1/2 ( m v² + I₂ ω²)  [ ω is angular velocity of rotation ]

= 1/2 ( m v² + 2/3 m R² ω²)

= 1/2 ( m v² + 2/3 m v²)

=1/2 x 5 / 3 m v²

= 0.833 x 5 x 4² = 66.64 J .

This will be equal to work to be done to stop it.

A wave moves in a rope with a certain wavelength. A second wave is made to move in the same rope with twice the wavelength of the first wave. The frequency of the second wave is _______________ the frequency of the first wave.

Answers

Answer:

The frequency of the second wave is half of the frequency of first one.

Explanation:

The wavelength of the second wave is double is the first wave.

As we know that the frequency is inversely proportional to the wavelength of the velocity is same.

velocity = frequency x wavelength

So, the ratio of frequency of second wave to the first wave is

[tex]\frac{f_2}{f_1} =\frac{\lambda _1}{\lambda _2}\\\\\frac{f_2}{f_1} =\frac{\lambda _1}{2\lambda _1}\\\\\frac{f_2}{f_1} =\frac{1}{2}\\\\[/tex]

The frequency of the second wave is half of the frequency of first one.

When a golfer tees off, the head of her golf club which has a mass of 158 g is traveling 48.2 m/s just before it strikes a 46.0 g golf ball at rest on a tee. Immediately after the collision, the club head continues to travel in the same direction but at a reduced speed of 32.7 m/s. Neglect the mass of the club handle and determine the speed of the golf ball just after impact.

Answers

Answer:

v₂ = 53.23 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a golf club, m₁ = 158 g = 0.158 kg

The initial speed of a golf club, u₁  =  48.2 m/s

The mass of a golf ball, m₂ = 46 g = 0.046 kg

It was at rest, u₂ = 0

Immediately after the collision, the club head continues to travel in the same direction but at a reduced speed of 32.7 m/s, v₁ = 32.7 m/s

We use the conservation of energy to find the speed of the golf ball just after impact as follows :

[tex]m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2\\\\v_2=\dfrac{m_1u_1-m_1v_1}{m_2}\\\\v_2=\dfrac{0.158(48.2)-0.158(32.7)}{0.046}\\\\=53.23\ m/s[/tex]

So, the speed of the golf ball just after the impact is equal to 53.23 m/s.

We have to find the equivalent resistance of the circuit.

Here, [tex]\rm { R_1} [/tex] and [tex]\rm { R_2} [/tex] are connected in series, so their combined resistance will be given by,

Reciprocating both sides,

Now, the combined resistance of [tex]\rm { R_1} [/tex], [tex]\rm { R_2} [/tex] and [tex]\rm { R_3} [/tex] is connected in series combination with [tex]\rm { R_4} [/tex]. So, equivalent resistance will be given by,

A 31 kg block is initially at rest on a horizontal surface. A horizontal force of 83 N is required to set the block in motion. After it is in motion, a horizontal force of 55 N i required to keep it moving with constant speed. From this information, find the coefficients of static and kinetic friction

Answers

Answer:

The static and kinetic coefficients of friction are 0.273 and 0.181, respectively.

Explanation:

By Newton's Laws of Motion and definition of maximum friction force, we derive the following two formulas for the static and kinetic coefficients of friction:

[tex]\mu_{s} = \frac{f_{s}}{m\cdot g}[/tex] (1)

[tex]\mu_{k} = \frac{f_{k}}{m\cdot g}[/tex] (2)

Where:

[tex]\mu_{s}[/tex] - Static coefficient of friction, no unit.

[tex]\mu_{k}[/tex] - Kinetic coefficient of friction, no unit.

[tex]f_{s}[/tex] - Static friction force, in newtons.

[tex]f_{k}[/tex] - Kinetic friction force, in newtons.

[tex]m[/tex] - Mass, in kilograms.

[tex]g[/tex] - Gravitational constant, in meters per square second.

If we know that [tex]f_{s} = 83\,N[/tex], [tex]f_{k} = 55\,N[/tex], [tex]m = 31\,kg[/tex] and [tex]g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex], then the coefficients of friction are, respectively:

[tex]\mu_{s} = \frac{83\,N}{(31\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)}[/tex]

[tex]\mu_{s} = 0.273[/tex]

[tex]\mu_{k} = \frac{55\,N}{(31\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)}[/tex]

[tex]\mu_{k} = 0.181[/tex]

The static and kinetic coefficients of friction are 0.273 and 0.181, respectively.

A tire is filled with air at 22oC to a gauge pressure of 240 kPa. After driving for some time, if the temperature of air inside the tire is 45oC, what fraction of the original volume of air must be removed to maintain the pressure at 240 kPa?

Answers

Answer:

7.8% of the original volume.

Explanation:

From the given information:

Temperature [tex]T_1[/tex] = 22° C = 273 + 22 = 295° C

Pressure [tex]P_1[/tex] = 240 kPa

Temperature [tex]T_2[/tex] = 45° C

At initial temperature and pressure:

Using the ideal gas equation:

[tex]P_1V_1 =nRT_1[/tex]

making V_1 (initial volume) the subject:

[tex]V_1 = \dfrac{nRT_1}{P_1}[/tex]

[tex]V_1 = \dfrac{nR*295}{240}[/tex]

Provided the pressure maintained its rate at 240 kPa, when the temperature reached 45° C, then:

the final volume [tex]V_2[/tex] can be computed as:

[tex]V_2 = \dfrac{nR*318}{240}[/tex]

Now, the change in the volume ΔV =  V₂ - V₁

[tex]\Delta V = \dfrac{nR*318}{240}- \dfrac{nR*295}{240}[/tex]

[tex]\Delta V = \dfrac{23nR}{240}[/tex]

The required fraction of the volume of air to keep up the pressure at (240) kPa can be computed as:

[tex]= \dfrac{\dfrac{23nR}{240}}{ \dfrac{295nR}{240}}[/tex]

[tex]= {\dfrac{23nR}{240}} \times { \dfrac{240}{295nR}}[/tex]

[tex]= 0.078[/tex]

= 7.8% of the original volume.

The gravitational field strength due to its planet is 5N/kg What does it mean?

Answers

Answer:

The weight of an object is the force on it caused by the gravity due to the planet. The weight of an object and the gravitational field strength are directly proportional. For a given mass, the greater the gravitational field strength of the planet, the greater its weight.

Weight can be calculated using the equation:

weight = mass × gravitational field strength

This is when:

weight (W) is measured in newtons (N)

mass (m) is measured in kilograms (kg)

gravitational field strength (g) is measured in newtons per kilogram (N/kg)

The relation of mass m, angular velocity o and radius of the circular path r of an object with the centripetal force is-
a. F = m²wr
b. F = mwr²
c. F = mw²r
d. F = mwr. ​

Answers

Answer:

Correct option not indicated

Explanation:

There are few mistakes in the question. The angular velocity ought to have been denoted with "ω" and not "o" (as also suggested in the options).

The formula to calculate a centripetal force (F) is

F = mv²/r

Where m is mass, v is velocity and r is radius

where

While the formula to calculate a centrifugal force (F) is

F = mω²r

where m is mass, ω is angular velocity and r is radius of the circular path.

From the above, it can be denoted that the relationship been referred to in the question is that of a centrifugal force and not centripetal force, thus the correct option should be C.

NOTE: Centripetal force is the force required to keep an object moving in a circular path/motion and acts inward towards the centre of rotation while centrifugal force is the force felt by an object in circular motion which acts outward away from the centre of rotation.
