Answer:

166 kg *m/s

44 N upward

39 m/s east

Explanation:

The short answer: If it has direction, it's a vector.

The long answer:

Vectors, unlike scalars, have direction. The first one, 166 kg*m/s is momentum, since momentum is velocity*mass, and velocity is a vector, momentum must be a vector.

44 Newtons is a vector since it has direction, in this case, upward. Force is acceleration*mass, and since acceleration is a vector, force must be a vector.

39 m/s is velocity, velocity has a direction, therefore it's a vector.

13.7 grams is mass since mass doesn't change with direction, it's a scalar, the opposite of a vector.

86 miles per hour has speed, but speed has no direction, therefore it's a scalar.

12 meters is distance, distance has no direction, therefore it's a scalar.

Two 0.50 g spheres are charged equally and placed 2.5 cm apart. When released, they begin to accelerate at 170 m/s^2 .What is th

vitfil [10]

Answer:

$q=7.65*10^{-8}C$

Explanation:

Using Newton's second law, we calculate the magnitude of the electric force between the spheres:

$F=ma\\F=0.5*10^{-3}kg(170\frac{m}{s^2})\\F=0.085N$

The magnitude of the charge in both spheres is the same. So, we calculate the charge, using Coulomb's law:

$F=\frac{kq^2}{d^2}\\q=\sqrt\frac{Fd^2}{k}\\q=\sqrt\frac{(0.085N)(2.5*10^{-2}m)^2}{8.99*10^9\frac{N\cdot m^2}{C^2}}\\q=7.65*10^{-8}C$

Two 800 cm^3 containers hold identical amounts of a monatomic gas at 20Â°C. Container A is rigid. Container B has a 100 cm^2 pis

Vikki [24]

Answer:

1) Final Temperature of the gas in A will be GREATER than the temperature in B

2) Diagram of both processes on a single PV has been uploaded below

3) The Initial pressures in containers A and B is 3039.87 J/liters

4) the final volume of container B is 923.36 cm³

Explanation:

Given that;

Temperature = 20°C = 293 K

mass of piston = 10 kg

Area = 100cm³

Volume V = 800 cm³ = 0.8 L

ideal gas constant R = 8.3 J/K·mol

Final Temperature of the gas in A will b GREATER than the temperature in B

Diagram of both processes on a single PV has been uploaded below,

Initial pressures in containers A and B

PV = nRT

P = RT/V

we substitute

P = (8.3 × 293) / 0.8

P = 2431.9 / 0.8

P = 3039.87 J/liters

Therefore, The Initial pressures in containers A and B is 3039.87 J/liters

Given that;

power = 25 W

time t = 15s

the final volume of container B = ?

we know that;

work done = power × time

work done = 25 × 15 = 375

Also work done = P( V₂ - V₁ )

so we substitute

375 = 3039.87 ( V₂ - 0.8 )

( V₂ - 0.8 ) = 375 / 3039.87

V₂ - 0.8 = 0.12336

V₂ = 0.12336 + 0.8

V₂ = 0.92336 Litres

V₂ = 923.36 cm³

Therefore, the final volume of container B is 923.36 cm³

Two identical 3.0-kg cubes are placed on a horizontal surface in

DedPeter [7]

The magnitude of the force exerted by the left cube on the right cube is 17.64N.

<h3>What is frictional force?</h3>

When an object is moving on a rough surface, it experiences opposition. This opposing force is called the friction.

Two identical 3.0-kg cubes are placed on a horizontal surface in contact with one another. The cubes are lined up from left to right and a force F₁ is applied to the left side of the left cube causing both cubes to move at a constant speed v. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the cubes and the surface is 0.3.

From the equilibrium of forces in vertical direction

Normal force N= 2m x g

friction force f = μN =μ(2m)g

From the equilibrium of forces in horizontal direction

F₁ =ma =0

using Newton's third law of motion, we get

F₁ - f =0

F₁ =f = μ(2m)g

Put the values, we get

F₁ = 17.64N

Thus, magnitude of the force exerted by the left cube on the right cube is 17.64N.

A ball is dropped off the roof of a tall building. If the ball reaches the ground in 8 seconds, how tall is the building, in met

Ghella [55]

Let b be the height of the building, and y the height of the ball at time t, given by

y = b - 1/2 gt²

where g = 9.8 m/s² is the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity.

It takes the ball 8 s to reach the ground, at which point y = 0, so that

0 = b - 1/2 (9.8 m/s²) (8 s)²

b = 1/2 (9.8 m/s²) (8 s)²

b = 313.6 m
