(a),(d) The graphical representation of the vectorg→and its unit vectorg^is

(b) The magnitude of g→is 8.06m.

(c) The unit vector along g→is 0.496i^+0.868j^.

(e) The product of the magnitudeg→times the unit vectorg^is (4i^+7j^)m.

Step by step solution

01

Given data

The vector g→=4,7,0m is provided.

02

Magnitude of a vector and unit vector

The magnitude of a vector r→=xi^+yj^+zk^is

|r→|=x2+y2+z2.....l

The unit vector along a vector r→is

r^=r→|r→|.....ll

03

Drawing the vector  g→

The vector g→ in coordinate form is

g→=4i^+7j^m

The graphical representation of the vector is as follows

04

Determining the magnitude of the vector g→

From equation (I) the magnitude of vector g→is

g→=42+72m=8.06m

Thus, the required magnitude is 8.06m.

05

Determining the unit vector along g→

From equation (II) the unit vector along g→is

g^=4i^+7j^m8.06m=0.496i^+0.868j^

Thus, the required unit vector is0.496i^+0.868j^

06

Drawing the unit vector g→

The graphical representation of g^ with the tail at 1,0,0m is shown in the image in Step 3.

07

Determining the product of the magnitude of g→ and the unit vector along g→

From equation (II), the product of the magnitude and the unit vector will just return the original vector, that is

g→g^=g→=4i^+7j^m

Thus, the required product is4i^+7j^m

A runner starts from rest and in3 sreaches a speed of . Assume that her speed changed at a constant rate (constant net force).

(a) What was her average speed during this 3 s interval?

(b) How far did she go in this 3 s interval?

In the circuit shown in Figure 19.75, the emf of the battery is 7.9V. Resistor R1 has a resistance of 23Ω, and resistor R2has a resistance of44Ω. A steady current flows through the circuit. (a) What is the absolute value of the potential difference across R1? (b) What is the conventional current through R2?

A ball is kicked on Earth from a location<9,0,-5> (on the ground) with initial velocity role="math" localid="1656668041027" <-10,13,-5>m/s . Neglecting air resistance: (a) What is the velocity of the ball 0.6 s after being kicked? (b) What is the location of the ball 0.6 s after being kicked? (c) What is the maximum height reached by the ball?

We will consider the possibility that a free electron acted on by an electric field could gain enough energy to ionize an air molecule in a collision. (a) Consider an electron that starts from rest in a region where there is an electric field (due to some charged objects nearby) whose magnitude is nearly constant. If the electron travels a distance dand the magnitude of the electric field is E,what isthe potential difference through which the electron travels? (Pay attention to signs: Is the electron traveling with the electric field or opposite to the electric field?) (b) What is the change in potential energy of the system in this process? (c) What is the change in the kinetic energy of the electron in this process? (d) We found the mean free path of an electron in air to be about 5×10-7 m, and in the previous question you calculated the energy required to knock an electron out of an atom. What is the magnitude of the electric field that would be required in order for an electron to gain sufficient kinetic energy to ionize a nitrogen molecule? (e) The electric field required to cause a spark in air is observed to be about 3×106 V/mat STP. What is the ratio of the magnitude of the field you calculated in the previous part to the observed value at STP? (f) What is it reasonable to conclude about this model of how air becomes ionized? (1) Since we used accurate numbers, this is a huge discrepancy, and the model is wrong. (2) Considering the approximations we made, this is pretty good agreement, and the model may be correct.
