To find the speed of the tip of the woman's shadow, we use related rates and the similarities of triangles. The rate at which the shadow tip moves is found by setting up a proportion based on similar triangles and differentiating with respect to time. The result is that the tip of the shadow moves at 10.67 ft/sec when the woman is 50 ft from the light pole.
The question is about a real-world application of related rates, which is a concept in calculus where one rate is determined based on another rate. In this scenario, we have a woman walking away from a light pole, and we need to find out how fast the tip of her shadow is moving. To solve it, we use the similarities of triangles created by the woman and the light pole with their respective shadows.
Let's let the height of the light pole be P (16 ft), the height of the woman be W (6 ft), the distance of the woman from the pole be w (50 ft), and the distance of the tip of her shadow from the pole be s. We will use the fact that the ratios P/s and W/(s-w) are equal because the triangles are similar. Setting up the proportions, after some algebra, we find that ds/dt (the rate at which the tip of the shadow moves) is a function of dw/dt (the rate at which the woman walks).
By differentiating both sides of the proportion with respect to time t, applying the chain rule, and plugging in the known values, we can solve for ds/dt as follows:
ds/dt = P/W * dw/dt * (s/w) = (16/6) * 4 * (50/50) = 64/6 = 10.67 ft/sec
The tip of her shadow is moving along the ground at a rate of [tex]\frac{1600}{61}\) ft/sec[/tex] when she is 50 ft from the base of the pole
To solve this problem, we can use similar triangles to relate the woman's height to the height of the street light and their respective shadows. Let [tex]\(x\)[/tex] be the distance from the woman to the pole, [tex]\(s\)[/tex] be the length of her shadow, and [tex]\(h = 16\)[/tex] ft be the height of the street light. The woman's height is [tex]\(w = 6\) ft.[/tex] At any given moment, the triangles formed by the woman and her shadow and the street light and the woman's shadow are similar. Therefore, we have the proportion:
[tex]\[\frac{h}{w} = \frac{h + s}{x}\][/tex]
We can solve for [tex]\(s\):[/tex]
[tex]\[h \cdot x = w \cdot (h + s)\][/tex]
[tex]\[h \cdot x = w \cdot h + w \cdot s\][/tex]
[tex]\[h \cdot x - w \cdot h = w \cdot s\][/tex]
[tex]\[s = \frac{h \cdot x - w \cdot h}{w}\][/tex]
Now, we want to find the rate at which [tex]\(s\)[/tex] is changing with respect to time, denoted as [tex]\(\frac{ds}{dt}\).[/tex] To do this, we differentiate the expression for [tex]\(s\)[/tex] with respect to time [tex]\(t\):[/tex]
[tex]\[\frac{ds}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt}\left(\frac{h \cdot x - w \cdot h}{w}\right)\][/tex]
[tex]\[\frac{ds}{dt} = \frac{h}{w} \cdot \frac{dx}{dt}\][/tex]
Given that [tex]\(h = 16\) ft, \(w = 6\) ft, and \(\frac{dx}{dt} = 4\) ft/sec,[/tex] we can substitute these values into the equation:
[tex]\[\frac{ds}{dt} = \frac{16}{6} \cdot 4\][/tex]
[tex]\[\frac{ds}{dt} = \frac{64}{6}\][/tex]
[tex]\[\frac{ds}{dt} = \frac{160}{15}\][/tex]
[tex]\[\frac{ds}{dt} = \frac{1600}{150}\][/tex]
[tex]\[\frac{ds}{dt} = \frac{1600}{61}\][/tex]
A circular plastic disk with radius R = 1.80 cm has a uniformly distributed charge of Q = +(2.05 ✕ 106)e on one face. A circular ring of width 30 μm is centered on that face, with the center of the ring at radius r = 0.50 cm. What charge is contained within the width of the ring?
The charge contained within the width of the ring on the plastic disk is approximately [tex]\(1.89 \times 10^6\)[/tex] elementary charges (e).
To find the charge contained within the width of the ring, we'll first calculate the total charge of the disk and then subtract the charge within the inner circle defined by the radius of 0.5 cm.
1. Calculate the total charge of the disk:
Total charge, Q_total = Q = +(2.05 ✕ 10^6)e
2. Calculate the area of the entire disk:
Area_disk = π * R^2
= π * (1.80 cm)^2
= 10.17 cm^2
3. Calculate the area of the inner circle:
Area_inner_circle = π * (0.50 cm)^2
= π * 0.25 cm^2
= 0.785 cm^2
4. Calculate the area of the ring:
Area_ring = Area_disk - Area_inner_circle
= 10.17 cm^2 - 0.785 cm^2
= 9.385 cm^2
5. Calculate the charge density of the disk:
Charge density, σ = Q_total / Area_disk
= (2.05 ✕ 10^6)e / 10.17 cm^2
≈ 201,183.43 e/cm^2
6. Calculate the charge within the width of the ring:
Charge_ring = σ * Area_ring
≈ 201,183.43 e/cm^2 * 9.385 cm^2
≈ 1.89 ✕ 10^6 e
So, the charge contained within the width of the ring is approximately 1.89 ✕ 10^6 e.

Answer:
a) Initial speed as it leaves the ground is 3.99 m/sb) Speed at the height of 0.587 m is 2.10 m/sc) Height reached is 0.81 mExplanation:
a) We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²
Initial velocity, u = ?
Acceleration, a = -9.81 m/s²
Time, t = 0.193 s
Displacement, s = 0.587 m
Substituting
s = ut + 0.5 at²
0.587 = u x 0.193 + 0.5 x -9.81x 0.193²
u = 3.99 m/s
Initial speed as it leaves the ground is 3.99 m/s
b) We have equation of motion v = u + at
Initial velocity, u = 3.99 m/s
Final velocity, v = ?
Time, t = 0.193 s
Acceleration, a = -9.81 m/s²
Substituting
v = u + at
v = 3.99 + -9.81 x 0.193
v = 2.10 m/s
Speed at the height of 0.587 m is 2.10 m/s
c) We have equation of motion v² = u² + 2as
Initial velocity, u = 3.99 m/s
Acceleration, a = -9.81 m/s²
Final velocity, v = 0 m/s
Substituting
v² = u² + 2as
0² = 3.99² + 2 x -9.81 x s
s = 0.81 m
Height reached is 0.81 m

4, A proton in a particle accelerator moves faster and faster.
Explanation:
A particle accelerator according to Wikipedia.com is a machine that uses electromagnetic fields to propel charged particles to very high speeds and energies, and to contain them in well-defined beams. Large accelerators are used for basic research in particle physics.
As the proton moves around, it collides with other proton and the wall of the accelerator thereby undergoing net interaction.
Process in which permanent deformation of metals occurs due to applied stress and results in breaking of bonds and then reforming of bonds with new neighbors. After removing of the stress, the metal does not return to its initial form.
Answer:
This process involves the motion of dislocations and is termed slip (or glide in some textbooks)
Explanation:
Plastic deformation of metals (and other crystalline materials) usually occurs by slip, which is the sliding of planes of atoms over one another by dislocation movements.
On a microscopic scale, stress causes planes of crystalline objects to leave their original position and slide over other planes into new positions, these microscopic movements manifest as a slip on a macroscopic scale. And the planes do not return back to their original position after the removal of the dislocation-causing stress.

F = 54700 x π x r²
F = 54700 x π x 0.272²
F = 12713.79 N
Work done = F.d
W = 12713.79 x 0.15
W = 1907.07 J
Change in internal energy ΔU is
ΔU = W + Q
= 1907.07 + (-16800)
= -14892.93 J
Hence, the change in internal energy is equal to -14892.93 J

Coulomb’s Law states that the force between two charged objects is directly related to the inverse of the square of the distance between them.
Explanation:According to Coulomb’s Law, the force between two charged objects is related to (a) the inverse of the square of the distance separating them. This law states that the force (F) between two charges is directly proportional to the product of their charges (q1 and q2) and inversely proportional to the square of the distance (r) between them. It's written as F = k * q1 * q2 / r^2, where k is Coulomb's constant. Thus, if the distance between the objects is doubled, the force between them is reduced to one fourth of its original value.

Aristotle said that a moving earthly or `mundane' object with nothing pushing or pulling on it will always A slow down and stop. B speed up. C keep moving at the same speed. D follow a circular path.
Answer:
A slow down and stop
Explanation:
When there is no force acting on something it automatically begins to slow down and then stops.Essentially, Aristotle's perspective of motion is that "it requires a force to move an object in an unnatural" way— or, plainly, that "movement involves strength." Indeed, if you propel a book, it keeps moving. Once you stop trying to push, it comes to a stop.

Assume that, on average, it consumed 30 W of static power and 40 W of dynamic power.Find the percentage of the total dissipated power comprised by static power for the Pentium 4 Prescott. Round to a whole integer between 0-1
Answer:
For Pentium 4 Prescott:
% of Static Power = 10
For core i5 Ivy Bridge:
% of Static Power = 43
Given Information:
Static Power of P4 = 10 W
Dynamic Power of P4 = 90 W
Static Power of i5 = 30 W
Dynamic Power of i5 = 40 W
Required Information:
% of static power w.r.t total power dissipation = ?
Explanation:
For Pentium 4 Prescott:
% of static power = static power/total power * 100
% of static power = 10/(10 + 90) * 100
% of static power = 10/(100) * 100
% of static power = 10
For core i5 Ivy Bridge:
% of static power = static power/total power * 100
% of static power = 30/(30 + 40) * 100
% of static power = 30/(70) * 100
% of static power = 43 (rounded to nearest whole integer)
Final answer:
The static power comprises 10% of the total dissipated power for the Pentium 4 Prescott processor.
Explanation:
To calculate the percentage of the total dissipated power that is comprised of static power for the Pentium 4 Prescott, we need to add the static power to the dynamic power to get the total power and then find what percentage the static power is of the total power.
Total power for Pentium 4 Prescott = Static power + Dynamic power
Total power for Pentium 4 Prescott = 10 W + 90 W
Total power for Pentium 4 Prescott = 100 W
Percentage of static power = (Static power / Total power) imes 100
Percentage of static power = (10 W / 100 W) imes 100
Percentage of static power = 10%
So, the static power comprises 10% of the total dissipated power for the Pentium 4 Prescott.

When point charges q1 = +1.2 μC and q2 = +4.1 μC are brought near each other, each experiences a repulsive force of magnitude 0.67 N. Determine the distance between the charges.?
Answer:
2.57 cm or 2.57×10⁻² m
Explanation:
From coulomb's law,
F = kqq'/r²................. Equation 1
Where F = force between the charges, q and q' = The first and second charge respectively, k = constant of proportionality, r = distance between the charges.
Making r the subject of equation 1
r = √(kqq'/F)................ Equation 2
Given: F = 0.67 N, q = 1.2 μC = 1.2×10⁻⁶ C, q' = 4.1×10⁻⁶ C
Constant: k = 9×10⁹ Nm²/C².
Substitute into equation 2
r = √( 1.2×10⁻⁶×4.1×10⁻⁶×9×10⁹/0.67)
r = √(66.09×10⁻³)
r = √(6.609×10⁻⁴)
r = 2.57×10⁻² m
r = 2.57 cm or 2.57×10⁻² m
Hence the distance between the charge = 2.57 cm or 2.57×10⁻² m

The light-gathering power of a telescope is directly related to the area of the telescope's primary mirror. A mirror with four times the diameter of another mirror collects how many times more light as the smaller mirror does in the same amount of time?
Answer:
16 times
Explanation:
Generally, the light-gathering power of the mirror of a telescope is dependent on the area of the mirror. The area of the mirror is (π*d^2)/4. The variable 'd' is the diameter of the mirror. Therefore, if the diameter of A is four times the diameter of B, the light-gathering power of A will be (π*4^2)/4 while that of B will be (π*1^2)/4. This shows that A has 16 times that of B.
A mirror with four times the diameter of another mirror collects 16 times more light than the smaller mirror in the same amount of time.
The light-gathering power of a telescope is directly proportional to the area of its primary mirror. The area A of a circular mirror is given by the formula [tex]\( A = \pi \left(\frac{D}{2}\right)^2 \)[/tex], where D is the diameter of the mirror.
If one mirror has four times the diameter of another, we can denote the diameters as D for the smaller mirror and [tex]\( 4D \)[/tex] for the larger mirror.
The area of the smaller mirror is:
[tex]\[ A_{\text{small}} = \pi \left(\frac{D}{2}\right)^2 = \pi \frac{D^2}{4} \][/tex]
The area of the larger mirror is:
[tex]\[ A_{\text{large}} = \pi \left(\frac{4D}{2}\right)^2 = \pi \left(2D\right)^2 = \pi 4D^2 \][/tex]
To find out how many times more light the larger mirror collects compared to the smaller mirror, we divide the area of the larger mirror by the area of the smaller mirror:
[tex]\[ \frac{A_{\text{large}}}{A_{\text{small}}} = \frac{\pi 4D^2}{\pi \frac{D^2}{4}} = \frac{4D^2}{\frac{D^2}{4}} = 4 \times 4 = 16 \][/tex]

An unknown weak acid with a concentration of 0.090 M has a pH of 1.80. What is the Ka of the weak acid?
Answer : The value of [tex]K_a[/tex] of the weak acid is, [tex]3.36\times 10^{-3}[/tex]
Explanation : Given,
Initial concentration = 0.090 M
pH = 1.80
First we have to calculate the hydrogen ion concentration.
[tex]pH=-\log [H^+][/tex]
[tex]1.80=-\log [H^+][/tex]
[tex][H^+]=0.0158M[/tex]
Now we have to calculate the [tex]K_a[/tex] of the weak acid.
The dissociation reaction of weak acid is:
[tex]HA\rightleftharpoons H^++A^-[/tex]
Initial conc. 0.090 0 0
At eqm. (0.090-x) x x
x = 0.0158 M
The expression for dissociation constant is:
[tex]K_a=\frac{(x)\times (x)}{(0.090-x)}[/tex]
Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:
[tex]K_a=\frac{(0.0158)\times (0.0158)}{(0.090-0.0158)}[/tex]
[tex]K_a=3.36\times 10^{-3}[/tex]
Thus, the value of [tex]K_a[/tex] of the weak acid is, [tex]3.36\times 10^{-3}[/tex]
The value of Ka of the weak acid with a concentration of 0.090 M and has a pH of 1.80 is 3.36 × 10-³.
How to calculate Ka of an acid?To calculate the Ka of an acid, we have to calculate the hydrogen ion concentration of the acid using the following expression:
pH = -log {H+}
1.80 = -log {H+}
{H+} = 0.0158M
The dissociation equation is given as follows:
HA ⇌ H+ + A-
Ka = 0.0158²/(0.090 - 0.0158)
Ka = 2.49 × 10-⁴/7.42 × 10-²
Ka = 0.336 × 10-²
Ka = 3.36 × 10-³
Therefore, the value of Ka of the weak acid with a concentration of 0.090 M and has a pH of 1.80 is 3.36 × 10-³.

Find the distance between the cities. Assume that Earth is a sphere of radius 4000 miles and that the cities are on the same longitude (one city is due north of the other). (Round your answer to one decimal place.)
Answer: 20231.75km
Explanation: Assuming the earth is a sphere with a radius r, the formulae for calculating the distance between 2 points on the earth surface is given as
[tex]l=\frac{\pi r}{180} *\alpha[/tex]
l = distance between two points on the earth surface (km)
π = 22/7
r = radius of the earth = 4000miles =6437.376 km ( we will be using kilometer because that is the SI unit for distance)
α = angle between the two cities on the earth surface. For our question, α=180 because one of the city is north and the second city is in the opposite direction (due north of the first)
By slotting in the parameters into the foemulae, we have that
[tex]l = \frac{\frac{22}{7} * 6437.376 }{180} * 180 \\\\l={\frac{22}{7} * 6437.376\\\\\\l=20231.751km[/tex]
How much charge will have accumulated on the plates of a charging capacitor after a length of time equal to one time constant?
Answer: 63% of the final charge
Explanation:
When a capacitor is connected to a battery/power supply, the capacitor charges following the exponential law:
[tex]Q(t)=Q_0 (1-e^{-\frac{t}{\tau}})[/tex]
where
[tex]Q_0[/tex] is the final charge of the capacitor, which is
[tex]Q_0 =CV_0[/tex]
where C is the capacitance and [tex]V_0[/tex] the potential difference of the battery
t is the time
[tex]\tau[/tex] is the time constant of the circuit
Re-writing the equation,
[tex]Q(t)=CV_0 (1-e^{-\frac{t}{\tau}})[/tex]
After a time equal to one time constant,
[tex]t=\tau[/tex]
Therefore the charge on the capacitor will be
[tex]Q(\tau)=CV_0 (1-e^{-\frac{\tau}{\tau}})=CV_0(1-e^{-1})=0.63CV_0[/tex]
Which means 63% of the final charge.
Final answer:
After one time constant, the charge on a capacitor in an RC circuit will be approximately 63% of its maximum value. The time constant τ is calculated as the product of resistance R and capacitance C. The formula for the charge at any time is Q(t) = Q_{max}(1 - e^{-t/RC}).
Explanation:
When a capacitor charges in an RC circuit, it goes through a process described by an exponential function. After a time period equal to one time constant, represented by the symbol τ and given by the formula τ = RC (where R is the resistance in ohms and C is the capacitance in farads), the charge on a capacitor will reach approximately 63% of its maximum charge. This characteristic time, the time constant, determines how quickly the capacitor charges up to its maximum value, which is limited by the supply voltage.
The charge Q on the capacitor can be determined by the equation Q(t) = Q_{max}(1 - e^{-t/RC}) where Q(t) is the charge at time t, Q_{max} is the maximum charge, R is the resistance, C is the capacitance, and e is the base of the natural logarithm. When t equals the time constant τ (t = RC), the charge on the capacitor is Q(τ) = Q_{max}(1 - e^{-1}) which is approximately 63% of Q_{max}.
Suzy drops a rock from the roof of her house. Mary sees the rock pass her 2.7 m tall window in 0.129 sec. From how high above the top of the window was the rock dropped? The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . Answer in units of m.
Answer:
h = 22.35 m
Explanation:
given,
initial speed of the rock,u = 0 m/s
length of the window,l = 2.7 m
time taken to cross the window,t = 0.129 s
Speed of the rock when it crosses the window
[tex]v = \dfrac{l}{t}[/tex]
[tex]v = \dfrac{2.7}{0.129}[/tex]
v = 20.93 m/s
height of the building above the window
using equation of motion
v² = u² + 2 g h
20.93² = 0² + 2 x 9.8 x h
h = 22.35 m
Hence, the height of the building above the top of window is equal to h = 22.35 m

But the acceleration in this case is this acceleration + acceleration due to gravity because the force has to be overcoming the force of gravity to now move the object upward at 2 m/s²
a = (2 + g) (assume acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s²
a = 2 + 10 = 12 m/s²
F = ma = 10 × 12 = 120 N
Power = F × v = 120 × 3 = 360 W

A 150 g baseball pitched at a speed of 45 m/s is hit straight back to the pitcher at a speed of 60 m/s. What is the magnitude of the average force on the ball from the bat if the bat is in contact with the ball for 9.5 ms?
Answer:
The average force is 1578.94 N.
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of baseball = 150 g
Speed = 45 m/s
Speed of pitcher = 60 m/s
Time = 9.5 ms
We need to calculate the average force
Using formula of impulse
[tex]J=\Delta p[/tex]
[tex]J=m\Delta v[/tex]...(I)
[tex]J=F\Delta t[/tex]....(II)
From equation (I) and (II)
[tex]F=\dfrac{m(v_{f}-v_{i})}{\Delta t}[/tex]
Where, m = mass of baseball
[tex]v_{f}[/tex] = final velocity
[tex]v_{i}[/tex] = Initial velocity
[tex]\Delta t[/tex] = time
Put the value into the formula
[tex]F=\dfrac{150\times10^{-3}\times(60-(-40))}{9.5\times10^{-3}}[/tex]
[tex]F=1578.94\ N[/tex]
Hence, The average force is 1578.94 N.
Answer:
F = 1657.89 N
Explanation:
given,
mass of the baseball, m = 150 g
initial speed, u = 45 m/s
final speed, v = 60 m/s
time of contact,t = 9.5 ms
we know,
impulse is equal to change in momentum
J = m (v - u)
J = 0.15 x (60-(-45))
J = 0.15 x 105
J = 15.75 Kg.m/s
We also know that impulse
J = F x Δ t
F x 9.5 x 10⁻³ = 15.75
F = 1657.89 N
The magnitude of the average force is equal to F = 1657.89 N
The development of solar panels for home installation has improved due to technological advances and subsidies. These factors shift the supply curve to the _____ and result in the equilibrium price of solar panel installations to _____.
right; fall
left; rise
left; fall
right; rise
Answer:
The correct answer is
right; fall
Explanation:
When there are changes in the costs of the factors of production, it can result in the supply curve shifting to the right or to the left. That means the quantity supplied at the given price has either increased or decreased, hence the supply curve shows the relationship between quantity supplied at a given price
Factors that can cause a shift in supply curve include, prices of imput materials, increased competition, technological advancement, social or natural factors and general expectations.
When the supply curve shifts right, that means increased in supply or more units are available at a given price, hence prices fall. However if the supply curve shifts left that means less goods are available at a given market price, hence prices of the commodities will rise
A small crane has a motor that exerts 2.41 times 10^7 Pa of pressure on a fluid chamber. If the piston has an area of 168 cm2 how much force does the piston exert?
Answer:
[tex]F = 4.05\times 10^{9}\ N[/tex]
Explanation:
Given:
Exerts pressure
[tex]p = 2.41\times 10^{7}\ Pa[/tex]
Piston has an area
[tex]A = 168\ cm^{2][/tex]
We need to find the force exerted by piston.
Solution:
Formula of pascals law's is given as:
[tex]p=\frac{F}{A}[/tex]
Where:
F = Force applied
P = Pressure exerted
A = Cross sectional area
Substitute force and area in pascal's formula.
[tex]2.4\times 10^{7}=\frac{F}{168}[/tex]
Using cross multiplication.
[tex]F = (2.41\times 10^{7})\times 168[/tex]
[tex]F = 404.88\times 10^{7}[/tex]
[tex]F = 4.05\times 10^{9}\ N[/tex]
Therefore, the force exerted by piston [tex]F = 4.05\times 10^{9}\ N[/tex]
The piston exerts a force of 404,880 Newtons when the motor exerts a pressure of 2.41 x 10⁷ Pa on a fluid chamber with a piston area of 168 cm².
To determine the force exerted by the piston, we use the formula:
Force (F) = Pressure (P) × Area (A)
Given:
Pressure (P) = 2.41 x 10⁷ PaArea (A) = 168 cm²First, convert the area from cm² to m²:
1 m² = 10,000 cm²
A = 168 cm² / 10,000 = 0.0168 m²
Now, calculate the force:
F = 2.41 × 10⁷ Pa × 0.0168 m²
F = 404,880 N
Thus, the piston exerts a force of 404,880 Newtons.

a 800 kg roller coaster cart is accelerated by a constant net force over a distance of 10 meters, as shown in the graph below: determine the speed of the cart after being accelerated for 10.0 meters.
Answer:
vf = 22.36[m/s]
Explanation:
First we must understand the data given in the problem:
m = mass = 800 [kg]
F = force = 20000[N]
dx = displacement = 10[m]
From newton's second we know that the sum of forces must be equal to the product of mass by acceleration.
[tex]F = m*a\\20000 = 800*a\\a = 20000/800\\a = 25 [m/s^2][/tex]
With the calculated acceleration, we can use the kinematics equations.
[tex]v_{f} ^{2} =v_{o} ^{2}+2*a*dx\\ v_{o} = initial velocity = 0\\a = acceleration = 25[m/s^2]\\dx= displacement = 10[m]\\[/tex]
The key to using this equation is to clarify that the initial velocity is zero since the body is at rest, otherwise the initial velocity would be an initial data.
[tex]v_{f} =\sqrt{2*25*10} \\v_{f} =22.36[m/s][/tex]
Another way of solving this problem is by means of the definition of work and kinetic energy, where work is defined as the product of the force by the distance.
W =F*d
W = 20000*10
W = 200000[J]
Kinetic energy is equal to work, therefore the value calculated above is equal to:
[tex]E_{k}=W =0.5*m*v_{f}^{2} \\200000=0.5*800*v_{f}^{2}\\v_{f}=\sqrt{\frac{200000}{0.5*800} } \\v_{f}=22.36[m/s][/tex]

person walks in the following pattern: 2.3 km north, then 2.5 km west, and finally 5.4 km south. (a) How far and (b) at what angle (measured counterclockwise from east) would a bird fly in a straight line from the same starting point to the same final point
Answer:
a.3.86 Km
b.Direction=233.3 degree
Explanation:
We are given that
Person wale in North direction,DE=2.3 Km
Person walk in West direction==BD=2.5 Km
Person walk in South direction,EC=5.4 Km
a.We have to find the distance between initial and final position.
Vector AB=-2.5 Km
BD=-EA=-2.3 Km
CA=y=-(EC-EA)=-(5.4-2.3))=-3.1 m
AB=-DE=x=-2.5 Km
Magnitude of resultant vector=[tex]\sqrt{AB^2+CA^2}=\sqrt{(-2.5)^2+(-3.1)^2}[/tex]
Magnitude of resultant vector=3.86 Km
Hence, the distance between initial and final position=3.86 Km
b.Direction=[tex]\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{y}{x})[/tex]
Direction=[tex]\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{-3.1}{-2.3})\approx 53.3^{\circ}[/tex] S of W
x-coordinate and y-coordinate are negative therefore, the angle lies in third quadrant.
When we measured from East then
[tex]\theta=53.3+180=233.3^{\circ}[/tex]
Therefore, the direction=233.3 degree
A 100 kg cart goes around the inside of a vertical loop of a roller coaster. The radius of the loop is 3 m and the cart moves at a speed of 6 m/s at the top. The force exerted by the track on the cart at the top of the loop is ________.
Final answer:
The force exerted by the track on the cart at the top of the loop is 220 N, calculated by the difference between the centripetal force required for circular motion and the gravitational force acting on the cart.
Explanation:
The student is asking for the force exerted by the track on a 100 kg cart at the top of a vertical loop, where the cart has a speed of 6 m/s and the loop's radius is 3 m. At the top of the loop, the cart's weight and the normal force from the track provide the centripetal force necessary to keep the cart moving in a circle. To calculate the total force exerted by the track on the cart, we need to account for both the cart's weight (gravitational force) and the centripetal force required to keep it in circular motion.
The gravitational force (Fg) can be calculated using the equation Fg = m × g, where m is the mass of the cart and g is the acceleration due to gravity. The centripetal force (Fc) required for circular motion at the top of the loop can be calculated with the formula Fc = m × v² / r, where v is the speed of the cart and r is the radius of the loop.
The force exerted by the track (Ft) is then the difference between the centripetal force and the gravitational force because, at the top of the loop, the track has to push down on the cart to provide the inward centripetal force while also supporting the cart's weight.
Let's calculate each force:
Gravitational Force (Fg): Fg = 100 kg × 9.8 m/s² = 980 N
Centripetal Force (Fc): Fc = (100 kg) × (6 m/s)² / (3 m) = 1200 N
Now, we calculate the total force exerted by the track at the top of the loop:
Total Force by Track (Ft):
Ft = Fc - Fg
Ft = 1200 N - 980 N = 220 N
Therefore, the force exerted by the track on the cart at the top of the loop is 220 N.
