Answer:
1. a vector field is an assignment of a vector to each point in a subset of space.
2. The direct answer is that it happens through Newton’s second law. If an object is in a potential field that is different at different points in space, then the object will experience a force in the direction in which the potential energy decreases. Newton’s second law says that a force causes a change in motion, which changes the kinetic energy.
3. According to Coulomb, the electric force for charges at rest has the following properties: Like charges repel each other; unlike charges attract. Thus, two negative charges repel one another, while a positive charge attracts a negative charge. The attraction or repulsion acts along the line between the two charges.
4. Ions are charged atoms that form when an atom donates or accepts one or more negatively charged electrons. Cations (ions with a positive charge) are attracted to anions (ions with a negative charge). This attraction is called an ionic bond.

Even though Alice visits the wishing well frequently and always tosses in a coin for good luck, none of her wishes have come true. As a result, she decides to change her strategy and make a more emphatic statement by throwing the coin downward into the well. If the water is 5.43 m below the point of release and she hears the splash 0.85 seconds later, determine the initial speed at which she threw the coin. (Take the speed of sound to be 343 m/s.)
Answer:
Explanation:
Total time taken = 0.85 s .
Time taken by sound to travel 5.43 m + time taken by coin to fall by 5.43 m = .85
5.43 / 343 + time taken by coin to fall by 5.43 m = .85
time taken by coin to fall by 5.43 m = .85 - 5.43/343 = .834 s
Let the initial velocity of throw of coin = u
displacement of coin s = 5.43 m
time take to fall t = .834 s
s = ut + 1/2 gt²
5.43 = u x .834 + .5 x 9.8 x .834²
5.43 = u x .834 + 3.41
u x .834 = 2.02
u = 2.42 m /s .
Which statement best compares coal and ores?
Both are burned for energy.
Both take millions of years to form.
Both require oxygen to form.
Both are used to make coins.
Answer:
Option 2 both take millions of years to form
Explanation:
Both coal and ores take millions of years to form.
What are ores?Ore is a naturally occurring rock or silt that has precious minerals in it that may be extracted, processed, and sold for a profit. These minerals are usually metals. Mining is the process of removing ore from the soil. The valuable metals or minerals are then removed by treating or refining the ore, frequently through smelting.
The concentration of the desired ingredient in an ore is referred to as its grade. To decide if a rock has a high enough grade to be worth mining and is therefore regarded as an ore, the value of the metals or minerals it contains must be evaluated against the expense of extraction.
Typically, oxides, sulphides, silicates, or native metals like copper or gold are the minerals of interest. To separate the valuable components from the waste rock, ore must be treated. Numerous geological processes collectively known as ore genesis are responsible for the formation of ore deposits.

Four electrons and one proton are at rest, all at an approximate infiitne distance away from each other. This original arrangment of the four particles is defined as having zero electrical potential energy No work is required to bring one electron from infitinty to a location defined as the origin, while the other three particles remain at infiniuty. This is because no voltage exists near the origin until the first electron arrives. (a) Now, with the first electron remaining fixed at the origin, how much work is required to bring one of the remaining electrons from infinity to the coordinate (0 m, 2.00 m)? The other three particles remain at infinity. If this second electron was subsequently released, how fast would it be traveling once it returned to infinity?

Answer:
a) W = 1.63 10⁻²⁸ J, b) W = 1.407 10⁻²⁷ J, c) W = 1.68 10⁻²⁸ J,
d) W = - 4.93 10⁻²⁸ J
Explanation:
a) In this problem we have an electron at the origin, work is requested to carry another electron from infinity to the point x₂ = 0, y₂ = 2.00m
If we use the law of conservation of energy, work is the change in energy of the system
W = ΔU = U_∞ -U
the potential energy for point charges is
U =k [tex]\sum \frac{q_i q_j}{r_{ij} }[/tex]
in this case we only have two particles
U = k [tex]\frac{q_1q_2}{r_{12} }[/tex]
the distance is
r₁₂ = [tex]\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2 + ( y_2-y_1)^2 }[/tex]
r₁₂ =[tex]\sqrt{ 0 + ( 2-0)^2}[/tex]Ra 0 + (2-0)
r₁₂ = √2= 1.4142 m
we substitute
W = k \sum \frac{q_i q_j}{r_{ij} }
let's calculate
W = [tex]\frac{ 9 \ 10^9 (1.6 \ 10^{-19})^2 }{1.4142}[/tex] 9 109 1.6 10-19 1.6 10-19 / 1.4142
W = 1.63 10⁻²⁸ J
b) the two electrons are fixed, what is the work to bring another electron to x₃ = 3.00 m y₃ = 0
in this case we have two fixed electrons
U = k [tex]( \frac{q_1q_3}{r_{13} } + \frac{q_2q_3}{r_{23} } )[/tex]
in this case all charges are electrons
q₁ = q₂ = q₃ = q
W = U = k q² [tex]( \frac{1}{r_{13} } + \frac{1}{r_{23} } )[/tex]
the distances are
r₁₃ = [tex]\sqrt{(3-0)^2 + 0}[/tex]RA (3.00 -0) 2 + 0
r₁₃ = 3
r₂₃ = [tex]\sqrt{ 3^2 + 2^2}[/tex]Ra (3 0) 2 + (2 0) 2
r₂₃ = √13
r₂₃ = 3.606 m
let's look for the job
W = U
let's calculate
W =[tex]{9 \ 10^3 ( 1.6 10^{-19})^2 }({\frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{3.606} } )[/tex]
W = 1.407 10⁻²⁷ J
c) the three electrons are fixed, we bring the four electron to x₄ = 3.00m,
y₄ = 4.00 m
W = U = k [tex]( \frac{q_1q_4}{r_{14 }} + \frac{q_2q_4}{r_{24} } + \frac{q_3q_4}{r_{34} } )[/tex]
all charges are equal q₁ = q₂ = q₃ = q₄ = q
W = k q² [tex](\frac{1}{r_{14} } + \frac{1}{r_{24} } + \frac{1}{r_{34} } )[/tex]
let's look for the distances
r₁₄ = [tex]\sqrt{3^2 +4^2}[/tex]
r₁₄ = 5 m
r₂₄ = [tex]\sqrt{3^2 + ( 4-2)^2}[/tex]
r₂₄ = √13 = 3.606 m
r₃₄ = [tex]\sqrt{(3-3)^2 + (4-0)^2}[/tex]
r₃₄ = 4 m
we calculate
W = 9 10⁹ (1.6 10⁻¹⁹)² [tex]( \frac{1}{5} + \frac{1}{3.606} + \frac{1}{4} )[/tex]
W = 1.68 10⁻²⁸ J
d) we take the proton to the location x5 = 1m y5 = 1m
W = U = k [tex]( \frac{q_1q_5}{r_{15} } + \frac{q_2q_5}{r_{25} } + \frac{q_3q_5}{r_{35} } + \frac{q_4q_5}{r_{45} } )[/tex]
in this case the charges have the same values but charge 5 is positive and the others negative, so the products of the charges give a negative value
W = - k q² [tex]( \frac{1}{r_{15} } + \frac{1}{r_{25} } + \frac{1}{r_{35} } + \frac{1}{r_{45} } )[/tex]
we look for distances
r₁₅ = [tex]\sqrt{ 1^2 +1^2}[/tex]Ra (1-0) 2 + (1-0) 2
r₁₅ = √ 2 = 1.4142 m
r₂₅ = [tex]\sqrt{ (2-1)^2 +1^2}[/tex]

r₃₅ = [tex]\sqrt{ ( 3-1)^2 +1^2}[/tex]
r₃₅ = √5 = 2.236 m
r₄₅ = [tex]\sqrt{ (3-1)^2 + (4-1)^2}[/tex]
r₄₅ = √13 = 3.606 m
we calculate
W = - 9 10⁹ (1.6 10⁻¹⁹)² [tex]( \frac{1}{1.4142} +\frac{1}{1.4142} + \frac{1}{2.236} + \frac{1}{3.606} )[/tex]

A vertical wire carries a current straight up in a region of the magnetic field directed north. What is the direction of the magnetic force on the current due to the magnetic field
Answer:
The direction of the force on the vertical wire is towards the East or right.
Explanation:
Using Fleming's right hand rule, the current is the middle finger pointing straight up, the magnetic field is the fore-finger pointing Northwards and then the thumb is the direction of the force on the vertical wire.
Following these conventions, the thumb points towards the East. So, the direction of the force on the vertical wire is towards the East or right.

Concept Simulation 4.1 reviews the central idea in this problem. A boat has a mass of 4490 kg. Its engines generate a drive force of 4520 N due west, while the wind exerts a force of 890 N due east and the water exerts a resistive force of 1210 N due east. Take west to be the positive direction. What is the boat's acceleration, with correct sign
Answer:
-0.54m/s²
Explanation:
According to Newton's second law of motion
F = ma
Force = mass * acceleration
Given
Mass m = 4490kg
Take the sum of forces
Sum of force along the east = 890+1210 = 2100N
Sum of forces along the west = -4520N
Net force = -4520+2100
Net force = -2420N
Acceleration = Net force/Mass
Acceleration = -2420/4490
Acceleration = -0.54m/s²
Hence the boat acceleration is -0.54m/s²
A shuttle bus slows down with an average acceleration of -2.4 m/s2. How long does it
take the bus to slow from 9.0 m/s to rest?
Answer:
[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 3.75 \ seconds }}[/tex]
Explanation:
Average acceleration is found by dividing the change in acceleration by the time.
[tex]a=\frac{ v_f-v_i}{t}[/tex]
The shuttle bus has an acceleration of -2.4 meters per square second. It slows from 9.0 meters per second to rest, or 0 meters per second. Therefore:
[tex]a= -2.4 \ m/s^2 \\v_f= 0 \ m/s \\v_i= 9 \ m/s[/tex]
Substitute the values into the formula.
[tex]-2.4 \ m/s^2=\frac{0 \ m/s - 9 \ m/s}{t }[/tex]
Solve the numerator.
[tex]-2.4 \ m/s^2 = \frac{-9 \ m/s}{t}[/tex]
We want to solve for t, the time. We have to isolate the variable. Let's cross multiply.
[tex]\frac{-2.4 \ m/s^2}{1} = \frac{-9 \ m/s}{t}[/tex]
[tex]-9 \ m/s *1= -2.4 \ m/s^2 *t[/tex]
[tex]-9 \ m/s=-2.4 m/s^2*t[/tex]
t is being multiplied by -2.4. The inverse of multiplication is division, so divide both sides by -2.4
[tex]\frac{-9 \ m/s }{-2.4 \ m/s^2} =\frac{ -2.4 \ m/s^2*t}{-2.4 \ m/s^2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{-9 \ m/s }{-2.4 \ m/s^2} =t[/tex]
[tex]3.75 \ s=t[/tex]
It takes 3.75 seconds.

Tyler and Jim race each other up a mountain on their bicycles. Tyler rides a road bike on the switchbacks of the twisting and turning mountain road. Jim rides a mountain bike and follows a direct, but steeper, straight-line path up the mountain. They start at the same time and place at the bottom of the mountain and finish at the same time and place at the top of the mountain. From start to finish a. whose distance traveled was longer? b. whose displacement was longer? c. which rider had the faster average speed? d. which rider had the faster average velocity? e. who won the race?
Answer:
Explanation:
Displacement is minimum distance between initial and final point .
Distance is total length of path covered in a journey .
a )
Tyler covered a longer distance in the journey because total length of path covered by him is longer due to curved path .
b )
Both have same displacement , because minimum distance between initial and final point in both the case is same .
c )
average speed = distance / time
as time is same for both the case ,
average speed ∝ distance
As distance covered by Tyler is more , his average speed is more .
d )
average velocity = displacement / time
As both displacement and time are same in both the case , average velocity in both the case is same .
e )
They start at the same time and place at the bottom of the mountain and finish at the same time , both have tie and nobody won the race , in spite of speed of Tyler being greater .
Magnus has reached the finals of a strength competition. In the first round, he has to pull a city bus as far as he can. One end of a rope is attached to the bus and the other is tied around Magnus's waist. If a force gauge placed halfway down the rope reads out a constant 2100 Newtons while Magnus pulls the bus a distance of 1.30 meters, how much work does the tension force do on Magnus
Answer:
Workdone = -2730 J
Explanation:
Formula for workdone is;
W = Force × Displacement
Now, according to Newton's 3rd law of motion, to every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
In the question given, we are told that a force gauge placed halfway down the rope reads out a constant 2100 Newtons while Magnus pulls the bus. This means that the force exerted by the rope on Magnus acts in an opposite direction to that which Magnus does to the rope.
Therefore, the force will be in the negative direction.
So;
Workdone = -2100 N × 1.3 m
Workdone = -2730 J

Both shields will stop the high-energy beta, so why is Plexiglas used instead of lead?

Explanation:
During an energy transfer, the collision loss for an electron can be determined by using the formula:

Normally, the traditional lead shielding in its pure shape contains high brittleness. However, the functionality of this carbon group chemical element is useful for protection because it has an excessive density.
Initially, the conventional lead protection however reduces the mild clarity at the same moment as plexiglass is useful for light transmittance and readability.
Moreover, the traditional lead with its high density and thickness reduces observation features, in the meantime, the plexiglass is a whole lot higher than the stated.

(a). Check attachment.
(b). 280.305 J.
(c). 31.81 kpa; 38.26K.
(d). 24.05K.
(e). 24.05k; 40kpa.
(f). -138.6J.
Explanation:
(a). Kindly check the attached picture for the diagram showing the four process.
1 - 2 = adiabatic expansion process.
2 - 3 = Isochoric process.
3 - 4 = isothermal process.
4 - 1 = isochoric process.
(b). Recall that the process from 1 to is an adiabatic expansion process.
NB: b = 5/3 for a monoatomic gas.
Then, the workdone = (1/ 1 - 1.66) [ (p1 × v1^b)/ v2^b × v2 - (p1 × v1)].
= ( 1/ 1 - 5/3) [ (101 × 5^5/3) × 10^1 -5/3] - 101 × 5.
Thus, the workdone = 280.305 J.
(c). P2 = P1 × V1^b/ V2^b = 101 × 5^5/3/ 10^5/3 = 31.81 kpa.
T2 = P2 × V2/ R × 1 = 31.81 × 10/ 8.324 = 38.36k.
(d). The process 2 - 3 is an Isochoric process, then;
T3 = T2/P2 × P3 = 38.26/ 31.82 × 20 = 24.05K.
(e). The process 3 - 4 Is an isothermal process. Then, the temperature at 4 will be the same temperature at 3. Tus, we have the temperature; point 3 = point 4 = 24.05k.
The pressure can be determine as below;
P4 = P3 × V3/ V4 = 20 × 10/ 5 = 200/ 5 = 40 kpa.
(f) workdone = xRT ln( v4/v3) = 1 × 8.314 × 24.05 × ln (5/10) = - 138.6 J

Two moles of a monatomic ideal gas at (5 MPa, 5 L) is expanded isothermally until the volume is doubled (step 1). Then it is cooled isochorically until the pressure is 1 MPa (step 2). The temperature drops in this process. The gas is now compressed isothermally until its volume is back to 5 L, but its pressure is now 2 MPa (step 3). Finally, the gas is heated isochorically to return to the initial state (step 4). (a) Draw the four processes in the pV plane. (b) Find the total work done by the gas.
Answer:
A. Part a is the attachment
B. total work = 10.4kj
Explanation:
[tex]workdone=nRT1ln\frac{Vb}{Va}[/tex]
T1 = constant temperature
nRT1 = PaVa = PbVb
We write equation as
[tex]workdone =(PaVa)ln\frac{Vb}{Va}[/tex]
5ma = Pa, 5L = Va, Vb = 10L(temperature is doubled)
[tex]w1 = workdone =(5mpa*5L)ln\frac{10L}{5L}[/tex]
W1 = 25 ln2
W1 = 25 x 0.693
= 17.327kj
The isochoric expansion has no change in volume. So,
W2 = 0
Isothermal compression
[tex]w3=nRT3ln\frac{Vd}{Vc}[/tex]
T3 = constant temperature
nRT3 = PcVc = PdVd
[tex]workdone=(PcVc)ln\frac{Vd}{Vc}[/tex]
Pc = 1mpa Vc = 10L Vd = 5L
[tex]w3=(1)(10)ln\frac{5L}{10L}[/tex]
= 10x-0.693
= -6.93kj
Isochoric compression has no change in volume. Workdone w4 = 0
Total workdone = w1 + w2 + w3 + w4
= 17.33 + 0 + (-6.93) + 0
= 10.4kj

Answer:
I = [tex]\frac{1}{4\pi \ r^2}[/tex]
we see the intensity decreases with the inverse of the distance squared
Explanation:
Intensity is defined as power per unit area,
I = P / A
in this case we have that the sound is emitted in a spherical form therefore the area is
A = 4 pi r2
therefore the intensity is
I = [tex]\frac{1}{4\pi \ r^2}[/tex]
as we see the intensity decreases with the inverse of the distance squared

The sign of the charge on the right is negative.
Answer:
a) electric field at point P must be zero
b) harged must be positive
c) force ais in the direction of the electric field
d) force is in the opposite direction to the electric field
e) force is in the opposite direction to the field
Explanation:
After reading your exercise, it is unfortunate that the diagram did not come out, but we are going to answer the questions in general.
a) force on a charge (+) is zero
this implies that the electric field at point P must be zero
F = q E
b) the magnitude of the charge on the left is on the right
this indicates that the charged must be positive since the lines must exit the charge
c) force on load directed towards (direction not indicated)
since the charge is positive the force at point L is in the direction of the electric field at this point
d) force on test load (-) does not indicate direction
The force on a negative charge is in the opposite direction to the electric field at point J
e) Force on a test load (-) at point N
the force is in the opposite direction to the field at point N
