Two obiect accumulated a charge of

tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

A. 181.24 N

Explanation:

The magnitude of hte electrostatic force between two charged objects is given by the equation

$F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}$

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q1, q2 are the magnitudes of the two charges

r is the separation between the charges

In this problem, we have:

$q_1=4.5\mu C=4.5\cdot 10^{-6}C$ is the magnitude of the 1st charge

$q_2=2.8\mu C=2.8\cdot 10^{-6}C$ is the magnitude of the 2nd charge

r = 2.5 cm = 0.025 m is the separation between the charges

Therefore, the magnitude of the electric force is:

$F=\frac{(9\cdot 10^9)(4.5\cdot 10^{-6})(2.8\cdot 10^{-6})}{(0.025)^2}=181.44 N$

So, the closest answer is

A) 181.24 N

A projectile is fired vertically from Earth's surface with

scoray [572]

Answer:

$h=25.52\times10^6 m$

Explanation:

Initial speed, v = 10 x 10^3 m/s

Mass of the earth, M = 6 x 10^24 kg

Radius of the earth, R = 6.4 x 10^6 m

Maximum from the surface of earth, h = ?

Let m = Mass of the projectile

Solution:

Potential energy at maximum height = ( Potential + Kinetic energy ) at the surface

$-G M m / ( R + h )=- G M m / R + (1/2) m v^2$

$- G M / ( R + h ) = - G M / R + (1/2) v^2$

$-2\times G M / ( R + h ) = ( - 2 G M / R ) + v^2$

$-2\times6.67\times10^{-11}\times6\times10^{24}/ ( R + h )$

= $( (- 2\times 6.67\times10^{-11}\times6\times10^{24}) /(6.4\times10^6)} +10000^2$

= $-2.50625\times10^7 J$

$=- 8\times10^{14} / ( R + h )=-2.50625\times 10^7$

$R+h=31.92\times10^{6}$

$h=31.92\times10^{6}-6.4\times10^6$

$h=25.52\times10^6 m$

A small ball of mass 2.00 kilograms is moving at a velocity 1.50 meters/second. It hits a larger, stationary ball of mass 5.00 k

rewona [7]

The kinetic energy of the small ball before the collision is

   KE = (1/2) (mass) (speed)²

   = (1/2) (2 kg) (1.5 m/s)

   =    (1 kg) (2.25 m²/s²)

   =    2.25 joules.

Now is a good time to review the Law of Conservation of Energy:

   Energy is never created or destroyed.
   If it seems that some energy disappeared,
   it actually had to go somewhere.
   And if it seems like some energy magically appeared,
   it actually had to come from somewhere.

The small ball has 2.25 joules of kinetic energy before the collision.
If the small ball doesn't have a jet engine on it or a hamster inside,
and does not stop briefly to eat spinach, then there won't be any
more kinetic energy than that after the collision. The large ball
and the small ball will just have to share the same 2.25 joules.

Calculate the force needed to give a car of mass 800 kg an acceleration of 2.0 ms−2. plss quick

erik [133]

The force needed to give a car of mass 800 kg an acceleration of 2.0 ms-² is 1600N.

<h3>How to calculate force?</h3>

The force needed to push an object can be calculated by multiplying the mass of the object by its acceleration as follows:

Force = mass × acceleration

According to this question, a car of mass 800 kg has an acceleration of 2.0 ms−². The force is calculated as follows:

Force = 800kg × 2m/s²

Force = 1600N

Therefore, the force needed to give a car of mass 800 kg an acceleration of 2.0 ms-² is 1600N.
