The storm would be at least 7 miles away cause light travels faster than sound and you can tell how many miles away a lightning bolt might have hit by how long it takes the thunder to strike<span />

Force → F = ( − 8.0 N ) ˆ i + ( 6.0 N ) ˆ j acts on a particle with position vector → r = ( 3.0 m ) ˆ i + ( 4.0 m ) ˆ j . What a
andrey2020 [161]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Force, F=(-8\ N)i+(6\ N)j

Position vector, r=(3i+4j)\ m

(a) The torque on the particle about the origin is given by :

\tau=F\times r\\\\\tau=(-8i+6j)\times (3i+4j)\\\\\tau=(-50k)\ N-m

(b) To find the angle between r and F use dot product formula as :

F{\cdot} r=|F||r|\ \cos\theta\\\\\cos\theta=\dfrac{F{\cdot} r}{|F| |r|}\\\\\cos\theta=\dfrac{(-8i+6j){\cdot} (3i+4j)}{\sqrt{(-8)^2+6^2} \times \sqrt{3^2+4^2} }\\\\\cos\theta=\dfrac{-24+24}{\sqrt{(-8)^2+6^2} \times \sqrt{3^2+4^2} }\\\\\cos\theta=0\\\\\theta=90^{\circ}

Hence, this is the required solution.

Write down an example scenario of an object that has acceleration
Grace [21]

Answer:

An object which experiences either a change in the magnitude or the direction of the velocity vector can be said to be accelerating. This explains why an object moving in a circle at constant speed can be said to accelerate - the direction of the velocity changes.

if a car turns a corner at constant speed, it is accelerating because its direction is changing. The quicker you turn, the greater the acceleration. So there is an acceleration when velocity changes either in magnitude (an increase or decrease in speed) or in direction, or both.

The circuit shown in the figure (Figure 1) uses a neon-filled tube. This neon lamp has a threshold voltage V0 for conduction, be
Svetllana [295]

Part 1)

Answer:

Explanation:

As we know by equation of charging of the capacitor we will have

V = E(1 - e^{-t/RC})

so we will have

87 = 105(1 - e^{-t/RC})

here we know that

R = 3.00 \times 10^6 ohm

C = 0.250 \mu F

so we have

t = 1.32 s

Part b)

Answer:

The time will increase.

Explanation:

As we know that on increasing the value of the resistance the the product of the resistance and capacitance will increase so the time will increase to get the above voltage.

Part c)

Answer:

The capacitor discharges through a very low resistance (the lamp filled with ionized gas), and so the discharge time constant is very short. Thus the flash is very brief.

Explanation:

Since the lamp resistance is very small so the energy across the lamp will totally lost in very short interval of time

Part d)

Answer:

Once the lamp has flashed, the stored energy in the capacitor is gone, and there is no source of charge to maintain the lamp current. The lamp "goes out", the lamp resistance increases, and the capacitor starts to recharge. It charges again and the process will repeat.

Explanation:

Since we know that the battery is connected to the given system so after whole energy of capacitor is flashed out it is again charged by the battery and the process will continue
