Here is the complete question

Assume a device is designed to obtain a large potential difference by first charging a bank of capacitors connected in parallel and then activating a switch arrangement that in effect disconnects the capacitors from the charging source and from each other and reconnects them all in a series arrangement. The group of charged capacitors is then discharged in series. What is the maximum potential difference that can be obtained in this manner by using ten 500 μF capacitors and an 800−V charging source?

Solution

Since the capacitors are initially connected in parallel, the same voltage of 800 V is applied to each capacitor. The charge on each capacitor Q = CV where C = capacitance = 500 μF and V = voltage = 800 V

So, Q = CV

= 500 × 10⁻⁶ F × 800 V

= 400000 × 10⁻⁶ C

= 0.4 C

Now, when the capacitors are connected in series and the voltage disconnected, the voltage across is capacitor is gotten from Q = CV

V = Q/C

= 0.4 C/500 × 10⁻⁶ F

= 0.0008 × 10⁶ V

= 800 V

The total voltage obtained across the ten capacitors is thus V' = 10V (the voltages are summed up since the capacitors are in series)

= 10 × 800 V

= 8000 V

= 8 kV

d) The impulse of the first case > the impulse of the second case.
e) The impulse of the first case < the impulse of the second case.

Answers

Answer:

c) The impulse is the same in both cases.

Explanation:

What drives the car is the amount of movement of the car during its journey. In this case, we can consider that in the car, presented in the question above, the movement is generated through speed and friction on the track, the impact that makes the car stop, is not part of the movement and therefore, not part of the impulse. In the two situations presented, the speed of the car is the same, the same car and the same track were also used, which shows us that the impulse, in both situations, is the same.

How many excess electrons must be distributed uniformly within the volume of an isolated plastic sphere 30.0 cmcm in diameter to produce an electric field of 1440 N/CN/C just outside the surface of the sphere

Answers

Answer:

1.78×10×10^10 electron

Explanation:

Electric field outside the sphere can be calculated using below expression

E= kq/ r^2..........eqn(1)

Where k= 9 × 10^9 NM^2/C^2

q= charge

E= 1440 N/C

Diameter= 30.0 cm= 0.3 m

r= radius= 0.3/2= 0.15m

If we make q subject of formula from eqn(1) we have

q= Er^2/k............eqn(2)

q= 1440 × (0.15)^2 /(9 × 10^9 )

= 2.85×10^-9C

Total charge is an integer of electron charge , then we can calculate the number of the electron using the expression below

q= Ne

Where

N = number of electron

Making N subject of the formula we have

N= q/e

Where e= electron value= 1.6× 10^-19

N=2.85×10^-9 /1.6× 10^-19

= 1.78×10×10^10 electron

A car driver spends 3hrs driving at an average speed of 80km/hr, stops for 30 minutes to
have some rest, and then drives at an average speed of 90km/hr for 2 hours.
Calculate the average speed during the whole journey​

Answers

Answer:

The average speed throughout the journey was 76.36 kilometers per hour.

Explanation:

Given that a car driver spends 3hrs driving at an average speed of 80km / hr, stops for 30 minutes to have some rest, and then drives at an average speed of 90km / hr for 2 hours, to determine the average speed during the whole journey the following calculation must be performed:

80 km / h x 3 = 240 km

90 km / h x 2 = 180 km

240 + 180 = 420 km

3 + 2 + 0.5 = 5.5 hours

420 / 5.5 = 76.36

Thus, the average speed throughout the journey was 76.36 kilometers per hour.

You are at a train yard observing trains (because why not). You see a train car (let's call it car 1) moving to the right ( x direction) towards a stationary train car (let's call this one car 2). Car 1 has an initial velocity of 15.0 m/s. A helpful train employee tells you that Car 1 also has a mass of 1,825 kg and Car 2 has a mass of 2,645 kg. Car 1 gently collides with Car 2, allowing them to connect. After the collision the two train cars stay connected. You can assume that there is no friction in the system. If you have never see train cars connect, you can watch the first 25ish seconds of this video to see two train cars couple. However, these cars have friction, so they stop - unlike our problem. What is the Final Velocity of the system consisting of Car 1 and Car 2

Answers

Answer:

6.12 m/s

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation of momentum

momentum before collision = momentum after collision

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁ + m₂)V    (since the train cars become attached to each other) where m₁ = mass of car 1 = 1,825 kg, m₂ = mass of car 2 = 2,645 kg, v₁ = initial velocity of car 1 = + 15.0 m/s (positive since it is moving in the positive x direction), v₂ = initial velocity of car 2 = 0 m/s (since it is initially stationary) and V = velocity of both cars after collision,

So, m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁ + m₂)V  

m₁v₁ + m₂(0 m/s) = (m₁ + m₂)V  

m₁v₁ + 0 = (m₁ + m₂)V  

V = m₁v₁/(m₁ + m₂)

substituting the values of the other variables into the equation, we have

V = 1,825 kg × 15.0 m/s/(1,825 kg + 2,645 kg)

V = 27375 kgm/s/ 4470kg

V = 6.124 m/s

V ≅ 6.12 m/s

Irrigation channels that require regular flow monitoring are often equipped with electromagnetic flowmeters in which the magnetic field is produced by horizontal coils embedded in the bottom of the channel. A particular coil has 100 turns and a diameter of 6.0 m. When it's time for a measurement, a 4.5 A current is turned on. The large diameter of the coil means that the field in the water flowing directly above the center of the coil is approximately equal to the field in the center of the coil. The field is directed downward and the water is flowing east. The water is flowing above the center of the coil at 1.5 m/s

Required:
a. What is the magnitude of the field at the center of the coil?
b. What is the direction of the force on a positive ion in the water above the center of the coil?

Answers

Answer:

A) B = 9.425 × 10^(-5) T

B) North direction

Explanation:

A) We are given;

Current in coil; I = 4.5 A

Number of turns; N = 100 turns

Radius;R = diameter/2 = 6/2 = 3 m

Formula for the magnetic field at the center of the coil is given by;

B = (μ_o•N•I)/2R

Where μ_o is a constant = 4π × 10^(-7) H/m

Thus;

B = (4π × 10^(-7) × 100 × 4.5)/(2 × 3)

B = 9.425 × 10^(-5) T

B) The direction of the force on a positive ion in water can be gotten by the application of flemmings right hand rule.

From flemmings right hand rule, we know that;

- The thumb indicates the direction of the motion of the force which is in the north direction.

- The Index finger indicates the direction of the magnetic field which is in the east direction

- The middle finger indicates the direction of magnetic field which is downwards in the west direction.

Therefore, the direction of the force as seen from flemmings right hand rule is in the north direction

The radius of the circle around which proton one moves is r. What is the radius of the circle around which proton two moves

Answers

Answer:

r₂ = 4 r

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use Newton's second law with the magnetic force

          F = q v x B

bold letters indicate vectors, the magnitude of this expression is

          F = q v B sin θ  

in this case we assume that the angle is 90º between the speed and the magnetic field.

If we use the rule of the right hand with the positive charge, the thumb in the direction of the speed, the fingers extended in the direction of the magnetic field, the palm points in the direction of the force, which is towards the center of the circle, therefore the force is radial and the acceleration is centripetal

           a = v² / r

let's use Newton's second law

           F = ma

           q v B = m v² / r

           r = [tex]\frac{qB}{mv}[/tex]

Let's apply this expression to our case.

Proton 1

             r = \frac{qB_1}{mv_1}

Proton 2

             r₂ = [tex]\frac{q \ B_2}{m \ v_2}[/tex]

in the exercise indicate some relationships between the two protons

*    v₁ = 2 v₂

    v₂ = v₁ / 2

*   B₂ = 2B₁

we substitute

           r₂ = [tex]\frac{q \ 2B_1}{m \ \frac{v_1}{2} }[/tex]

           r₂ = 4 [tex]\frac{qB_1}{mv_1}[/tex]

           r₂ = 4 r

A vertical straight conductor X of length 0.5m is held along the positive X-axis and situated in a uniform horizontal magnetic field of 0.1T which is pointing towards the positive Y-axis. (i) Calculate the magnitude and direction of force on X, when a current of 4A is passed through it. (ii) Through what angle must X be turned in a vertical plane so that the force on X is halved

Answers

Answer:

i. 0.2 N ii. 30°

Explanation:

(i) Calculate the magnitude and direction of force on X, when a current of 4A is passed through it.

The magnetic force F = BILsinФ where B = magnetic field strength = 0.1 T, I = current = 4 A and L= length of conductor = 0.5 m. Since the conductor X of length 0.5m is held along the positive X-axis and situated in a uniform horizontal magnetic field of 0.1T which is pointing towards the positive Y-axis, both B and L are perpendicular to each other. So, Ф = 90°

So, F = BILsinФ

F = 0.1 T × 4 A ×0.5 m × sin90°

F = 0.1 T × 4 A ×0.5 m × 1

F = 0.2 N

(ii) Through what angle must X be turned in a vertical plane so that the force on X is halved

If F' = BILsinФ' where Ф'=the new angle, and BIL = F

F'/F = sinФ'

Since F'/F = 1/2

sinФ' = 1/2

Ф' = sin⁻¹(1/2) = 30°

g.) All the technologies emit waves with a wavelength in the range of 0.01 to 10.0 km.

Answer:

B, D, E, F are the correct statements.

Explanation:

Looking at the options;

A) This is true because radio waves are electromagnetic radiation being used today in television, mobile phones, radios and other areas of communication technologies. And the examples given to us fall in the category of technologies that use radio waves.

B) microwaves usually have long wavelengths and low frequencies. However, sometimes they could have high frequencies usually more than radio waves. Thus, this option is correct.

C) This option is wrong because it's not all the listed technologies that use combination of infrared waves and high-frequency microwaves.

D) we are given the frequency of microwave ovens as 2450 MHz.

Converting to GHz gives; 2.45 GHz.

We are told that wireless internet technology has frequency between 2.4 to 2.6 GHz. Thus, microwave frequency falls in the same range as wireless internet technology and thus the statement is true.

E) we know that wavelength is inversely proportional to frequency. This means that the higher the frequency, the shorter the wavelength.

In the frequencies given to us, wireless internet technology have the highest frequency which means they have the shortest wavelength. The statement is true.

F) from the frequencies given to us, the smallest is garage door openers = 40.0 MHz = 40 × 10^(6) Hz while the biggest is 2.6 GHz = 2.6 × 10^(9) Hz

Formula for wavelength is;

Wavelength = speed of light/frequency

Speed of light = 3 × 10^(8) m/s

Thus;

Wavelength = (3 × 10^(8))/(40 × 10^(6))

Or wavelength = (3 × 10^(8))/(2.6 × 10^(9))

So,wavelength = 7.5 m or 0.12 m

This falls into the given range of 0.10 to 10.0 m.

Thus, the statement is true.

In an experiment, a disk is set into motion such that it rotates with a constant angular speed. As the disk spins, a small sphere of clay is dropped onto the disk, and the sphere sticks to the disk. All frictional forces are negligible. What would happened to the angular momentum and the total kinetic energy of the disk-sphere system immediately before and after the collision?

Answers

Answer:

  L₀ = L_f ,  K_f < K₀

Explanation:

For this exercise we start as the angular momentum, with the friction force they are negligible and if we define the system as formed by the disk and the clay sphere, the forces during the collision are internal and therefore the angular momentum is conserved.

This means that the angular momentum before and after the collision changes.

Initial instant. Before the crash

        L₀ = I₀ w₀

Final moment. Right after the crash

        L_f = (I₀ + mr²) w

we treat the clay sphere as a point particle

how the angular momentum is conserved

       L₀ = L_f

       I₀ w₀ = (I₀ + mr²) w

       w = [tex]\frac{I_o}{I_o + m r^2}[/tex]   w₀

having the angular velocities we can calculate the kinetic energy

       

starting point. Before the crash

        K₀ = ½ I₀ w₀²

final point. After the crash

        K_f = ½ (I₀ + mr²) w²

sustitute

        K_f = ½ (I₀ + mr²)  ( [tex]\frac{I_o}{I_o + m r^2}[/tex]   w₀)²

        Kf = ½  [tex]\frac{I_o^2}{ I_o + m r^2}[/tex]   w₀²

we look for the relationship between the kinetic energy

        [tex]\frac{K_f}{K_o}[/tex]=   [tex]\frac{I_o}{I_o + m r^2}[/tex]

       [tex]\frac{K_f}{K_o } < 1[/tex]

      K_f < K₀          

we see that the kinetic energy is not constant in the process, this implies that part of the energy is transformed into potential energy during the collision

The appropriate direction for the magnetic field is:Group of answer choicesthe negative y directioninto the pageout of the pagethe negative x directionthe positive y direction

Answers

Answer:

into the page

Explanation:

Since the uniform electric field is in the negative y direction so its is -E and the electron is travelling in the positive x direction, it experiences an electric force F = -e × -E = + eE, so the electric force is in the positive y direction. Now since the net force on the electron is zero in the region of the magnetic field, it follows that the direction of the magnetic force is opposite to that of the electric force. Since the electric force is in the positive y direction, the magnetic force is in the negative y direction.

By the right hand rule, since the magnetic force is in the negative y direction and the electron moves in the positive x direction, it follows that the magnetic field is in the positive z direction, into the page.

Also, at any instant t

[tex]\Rightarrow l^2=x^2+y^2[/tex]

differentiate w.r.t.

[tex]\Rightarrow 0=2xv+2yv_y\\\\\Rightarrow v_y=-\dfrac{x}{y}\times v\\\\\Rightarrow v_y=-\dfrac{5}{19.36}\times 2=0.516\ ft/s[/tex]
