Consider the following figure. A hexagon has six labeled vertices and a dashed line segment which divides the hexagon into a trapezoid and rectangle. The first side is horizontal, starts at vertex R, goes to the right, and ends at vertex S. The second side is vertical, starts at vertex S, goes up, and ends at vertex T. The third side starts at vertex T, goes up and to the right, and ends at vertex V. The fourth side is horizontal, starts at vertex V, goes to the left, and ends at vertex W. The fifth side starts at vertex W, goes down and to the right, and ends at vertex X. The sixth side is vertical, starts at vertex X, goes down, and ends at vertex R. ∠R and ∠S are right angles. A dashed line segment connects vertex X to vertex T. The trapezoid is created above the segment and the rectangle below the segment.

You and your younger brother are designing an air rifle that will shoot a lead pellet with mass

m = 1.20 g

and cross-sectional area

A = 0.0350 cm2.

The rifle works by allowing high-pressure air to expand, propelling the pellet down the rifle barrel. Because this process happens very quickly, no appreciable thermal conduction occurs and the expansion is essentially adiabatic. Your design is such that, once the pressure begins pushing on the pellet, it moves a distance of

L = 60.0 cm

before leaving the open end of the rifle at your desired speed of

v = 100 m/s.

Your design also includes a chamber of volume

V = 10.0 cm3

in which the high-pressure air is stored until it is released. Your brother reminds you that you need to purchase a pump to pressurize the chamber. To determine what kind of pump to buy, you need to find what the pressure of the air must be in the chamber (in Pa) to achieve your desired muzzle speed. Ignore the effects of the air in front of the bullet and friction with the inside walls of the barrel. (Assume that air is diatomic.)

A dielectric-filled parallel-plate capacitor has plate area A = 10.0 cm2 , plate separation d = 6.00 mm and dielectric constant k = 4.00. The capacitor is connected to a battery that creates a constant voltage V = 15.0 V . Throughout the problem, use ϵ0 = 8.85×10−12 C2/N⋅m2 .

a) Find the energy U1 of the dielectric-filled capacitor. Express your answer numerically in joules.

b) The dielectric plate is now slowly pulled out of the capacitor, which remains connected to the battery. Find the energy U2 of the capacitor at the moment when the capacitor is half-filled with the dielectric. Express your answer numerically in joules.

c) The capacitor is now disconnected from the battery, and the dielectric plate is slowly removed the rest of the way out of the capacitor. Find the new energy of the capacitor, U3. Express your answer numerically in joules.

d) In the process of removing the remaining portion of the dielectric from the disconnected capacitor, how much work W is done by the external agent acting on the dielectric? Express your answer numerically in joules.

The Earth's magnetic field protects us from cosmic rays, which are extremely-high-energy subatomic particles generated by esoteric processes in interesting parts of the universe. To get an idea of how this protection might happen, pretend the earth's magnetic field has a constant value of 5.0 x 10^-5 T (northward) from the ground up to a height of 50 km.

(a) Suppose a high-energy proton (charge +1.6 x 10^-19 C, mass 1.67 x 10^-27 kg) hits the top of the earths magnetic field at some high velocity, call it v, straight. On the diagram, sketch the path it would follow.

(b) For what initial speed v would the proton just make it to the earth's surface?

(c) When the proton from part (b) reaches the surface, what is its velocity (magnitude and direction)?

(d) Would protons moving faster than your answer to (b) reach the ground? Would slower ones hit the ground?

(e) What does happen to the protons that don't hit the ground?
