Consider the pressure and force acting on the
dam retaining a reservoir of water. Suppose the
dam is 500-m wide
and the water is 80.0-m
deep at the dam, as illustrated below. What is
the average pressure on the dam due to the
water?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

P = density (p) * g * h

P = 1000  kg/m^3 * 9.8 m/s^2 * 40 m = 392,000 N/m^2

since kg m / s^2 = Newtons

The average pressure is 1/2 (pressure at 0m +  pressure 80 m) for liquid of uniform density

A large metal sphere has three times the diameter of a smaller sphere and carries three times the charge. Both spheres are isolated, so their surface charge densities are uniform. Compare (a) the potentials (relative to infinity) and (b) the electric field strengths at their surfaces.

Answers

Answer:

A. Equals to that of the smaller sphere

B. 3 times less than that of the smaller sphere

Explanation:

(a) Equals to that of the smaller sphere

The potential of an isolated metal sphere, with charge Q and radius R, is kQ=R, so a sphere with charge 3Q and radius 3R has the same potential

b) 3 times less than that of the smaller sphere

However, the electric field at the surface of the smaller sphere is ?=? 0 = kQ=R2 , so tripling Q and R reduces the surface field by a factor of 1/3

The cart takes 5.00 s to go from point A to point C, and the cart takes 1.30 s to go from point B to point C. What is the cart's speed at point B

Answers

Answer:

The speed at B is 16.18 ft/s .

Explanation:

Speed at A, u = 11 ft/s

Speed at C, v' = 18 ft/s

Time from A to C = 5 s

Time from B to C = 1.3 s

Let the speed of car at B is v.

Let the acceleration is a.

From A to B

Use first equation of motion

v = u + a t

18 = 11 + a x 5

a = 1.4 ft/s^2

Let the time from A to B is t' .

t' = 5 - 1.3 = 3.7 s

Use first equation of motion from A to B

v = 11 + 1.4 x 3.7 = 16.18 ft/s

There can be uncertainty in calculating the wavelength of a laser light  due to experimental errors

All measurements have an uncertainty, in the case of direct measurements the uncertainty is equal to the precision of the given instrument.

What are uncertainity in measuring ?

Uncertainty  means the range of possible values within which the true value of the measurement lies.

What are errors?

The deviation  in the value of the measured quantity from the actual quantity or true value is called an error

(a) For the calculation of wavelength of laser light , the sources which can lead to uncertainty are

1. least count of measuring instruments like spectrometer or interferometer

2. Parallax error in the measurement

3. Error in identifying the order of fringes

4.. unable to identify the accurate  reading of Vernier or circular scales present in the measuring instruments.

5. Propagating errors

What is least count?

The least count of a measuring instrument is the smallest and accurate value in the measured quantity that can be measured by instrument.

What is propagating error?

When you have derived variables, that is, when measurements are made with different instruments, each with a different uncertainty, the way to find the uncertainty or error is that  all the errors add up. which increases the uncertainty

b. The uncertainty in measurement due to  least count depends on the instrument used for measurement f wavelength. A  Michelson's

interferometer has the least count of .0001mm. whereas spectrometer has a least count of 0.5⁰. Hence uncertainty in the measurement by Michelson's interferometer is very less as compared to any other instrument.

C. The maximum uncertainty arises due to the least count , as all other errors can be minimized by taking an average value of many observations but the least count of an instrument do not change so uncertainty within the least count arises.

A proton traveling at 17.6° with respect to the direction of a magnetic field of strength 3.28 mT experiences a magnetic force of 9.14 × 10-17 N. Calculate (a) the proton's speed and (b) its kinetic energy in electron-volts.

Answers

Answer:

a) The proton's speed is 5.75x10⁵ m/s.

b) The kinetic energy of the proton is 1723 eV.  

Explanation:

a) The proton's speed can be calculated with the Lorentz force equation:

[tex] F = qv \times B = qvBsin(\theta) [/tex]     (1)          

Where:

F: is the force = 9.14x10⁻¹⁷ N

q: is the charge of the particle (proton) = 1.602x10⁻¹⁹ C

v: is the proton's speed =?

B: is the magnetic field = 3.28 mT

θ: is the angle between the proton's speed and the magnetic field = 17.6°

By solving equation (1) for v we have:

[tex]v = \frac{F}{qBsin(\theta)} = \frac{9.14 \cdot 10^{-17} N}{1.602\cdot 10^{-19} C*3.28 \cdot 10^{-3} T*sin(17.6)} = 5.75 \cdot 10^{5} m/s[/tex]

Hence, the proton's speed is 5.75x10⁵ m/s.

b) Its kinetic energy (K) is given by:

[tex] K = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} [/tex]

Where:

m: is the mass of the proton = 1.67x10⁻²⁷ kg

[tex] K = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} = \frac{1}{2}1.67 \cdot 10^{-27} kg*(5.75 \cdot 10^{5} m/s)^{2} = 2.76 \cdot 10^{-16} J*\frac{1 eV}{1.602 \cdot 10^{-19} J} = 1723 eV [/tex]  

Therefore, the kinetic energy of the proton is 1723 eV.

Answer:

   t = 2.09 10⁻³ s

Explanation:

We must solve this problem in parts, first we look for the acceleration of the electron and then the time to travel the distance

let's start with Newton's second law

        ∑ F = m a

the force is electric

        F = q E

         

we substitute

        q E = m a

        a = [tex]\frac{q}{m} \ E[/tex]

        a = [tex]\frac{1.6 \ 10^{-19}}{ 9.1 \ 10^{-31} } \ 7.8 \ 10^{-9}[/tex]

        a = 1.37 10³ m / s²

now we can use kinematics

        x = v₀ t + ½ a t²

indicate that rest starts v₀ = 0

        x = 0 + ½ a t²

        t = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{2x}{a} }[/tex]

        t = [tex]\sqrt{\frac {2 \ 3 \ 10^{-3}}{ 1.37 \ 10^3} }[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

  E = 1.25 MV / m

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use Newton's second law

          F = m a

where the force is electric

          F = q E

we substitute

          q E = m a

          E = m a / q

indicate there are 500,000 excess electrons

          q = 500000 e

          q = 500000 1.6 10⁻¹⁹

          q = 8 10⁻¹⁴ C

the mass is m = 10⁻¹¹ kg and the acceleration a = 10⁴ m / s²

         

let's calculate

          E = 10⁻¹¹ 10⁴ / 8 10⁻¹⁴

          E = 0.125 10⁷ V / m = 1.25 10⁶ V / m

It is easy to produce a potential difference of several thousand volts between your body and the floor by scuffing your shoes across a nylon carpet. When you touch a metal doorknob, you get a mild shock. Yet contact with a power line of comparable voltage would probably be fatal. Why is there a difference?

Answers

Answer:

In sof the friction with the nylon is very small and the current with the line e is largeummary

Explanation:

When we rub the shoes against the carpet, static electricity is produced, when you touch the metal knob you close the circuit and the current can circulate to three of the body, the value of this current is of the order of micro volts, for which a small discharge, the power that circulates through the body is very small of the order of 0.005 A

When you touch the power line, the voltage may be small, but the amount of current that can generate them is of the order of tens of amps, the electric shock is much greater per location.

In general there is a rule that if the body resumes more than P = 4000W the discharge could be fatal.

In sof the friction with the nylon is very small and the current with the line e is largeummary, the difference is that the current at the stop , so the paper that passes through the body is large and can be dangerous.

In contact with metal doorknob, get a mild shock  while with power line of same voltage, fatal the body as the amount of current is more.

What is charging by friction?

When the two materials are rubbed each other, then the electric charged generated between them.

This charging of materials, due to the rubbing of two materials against each other, is called the charging by friction.

It is easy to produce a potential difference of several thousand volts between the body and the floor by scuffing your shoes across a nylon carpet.

In this case, the potential difference may be higher, but the value of current is very low. Thus, when the body touches a metal doorknob, it will get a mild shock.

Now, in another case, the contact with a power line of comparable voltage would probably be fatal. This is because in the power line the amount of current is much higher.

Hence, in contact with metal doorknob, get a mild shock  while with power line of same voltage, fatal the body as the amount of current is more.

a)

Generally the equation for Dam's Hydro static force is mathematically given by

[tex]F_g=\rho*g*\frac{h}{2}(w*h)[/tex]

Where

[tex]\rho=Density\ of\ water[/tex]

[tex]\rho=62.4Ibm/ft^3[/tex]

Therefore

[tex]F_g=62.4*32.2*\frac{200}{2}(1200*200)[/tex]

[tex]F_g=1.5*10^9Ibf[/tex]

b)

The hydrostatic force on the dam is [tex]2.995 \times 10^9 \ lbF[/tex].

The force per unit area near the top is 86.74 psi.

The force per unit area near the bottom is zero.

Hydrostatic force

The hydrostatic force on the dam is the force exerted on the dam by the column of the water.

[tex]F = PA\\\\F = (\rho gh) \times (wh)\\\\F = (62.4 \times 32.17 \times 200) \times (1200 \times 200)\\\\F = 9.636 \times 10^{10} \ lb-ft/s^2\\\\1 \ lbF = 32.17\ lb-ft/s^2\\\\F = 2.995 \times 10^9 \ lbF[/tex]

Force per unit area near the top

The force per unit area is the pressure exerted near the top of the dam.

[tex]P = \rho gh\\\\P = 0.052 \times \rho h[/tex]

where;

P is pressure in PSI

ρ is density of water in lb/gal

h is the vertical height in ft
