(a) L = 0·73 m

(b) 4·39 × $10^{-3}$ J

Explanation:

(a) From the figure, consider the torque about the point where the rod is attached because if we consider another point then there will be hinge forces acting on the rod at the point of attachment

Let L m be the length of the rod and β be the angle between the rod and the vertical

Let α be the angular acceleration of the rod

As the force of gravity acts at the centre so from the figure, the torque about the point of attachment will be 0·53 × g ×(L ÷ 2) ×sinβ

Assuming that the value of amplitude of this oscillation to be small

As torque = moment of inertia × angular acceleration

0·53 × g ×(L ÷ 2) ×sinβ = ((0·53 × L²) ÷ 3) × α (∵ moment of inertia of the rod from the point of attachment)

For small oscillations, α = ω² × β

After substituting the value of α and solving we get

ω = √((3 × g) ÷ (2 × L))

Time period = (2 × π) ÷ ω = (2 × π) ÷ √((3 × g) ÷ (2 × L))

∴ (2 × π) ÷ √((3 × g) ÷ (2 × L)) = 1·4

Substituting the value of g as 9·8 m/s² and solving we get

L = 0·73 m

(b) At the maximum amplitude condition the velocity will be 0 and potential energy will be maximum and maximum kinetic energy will be attained at the lowest point and hinge forces will not do work as the point of attachment is not moving

∴ Taking the reference for finding the potential energy as the lowest point

Maximum potential energy = Maximum kinetic energy As total energy is constant, since there is no dissipative force

Maximum potential energy = (0·53 × g × L ×(1 - cosβ)) ÷ 2 (∵ increment in height is (L × (1 - cosβ)) ÷ 2

∴ Maximum potential energy = (0·53 × g × L ×(1 - cosβ)) ÷ 2 After substituting the value we get

Maximum potential energy = 4·39 × $10^{-3}$ J

∴ Maximum kinetic energy = 4·39 × $10^{-3}$ J

An charge with mass m and charge q is emitted from the origin, (x,y)=(0,0). a large, flat screen is located at x=l. there is a target on the screen at y position y(h), where y(h) > 0. in this problem, you will examine two different ways that the charge might hit the target. ignore gravity in this problem. 1.assume that the charge is emitted with velocity v(0) in the positive x direction. between the origin and the screen, the charge travels through a constant electric field pointing in the positive y direction. what should the magnitude e of the electric field be if the charge is to hit the target on the screen? express your answer in terms of m, q, y(h), v(0), and l. 2.now assume that the charge is emitted with velocity v(0) in the positive y direction. between the origin and the screen, the charge travels through a constant electric field pointing in the positive x direction. what should the magnitude e of the electric field be if the charge is to hit the target on the screen? express your answer in terms of m, q, y(h), v(0), and l.
