The thermal energy that is generated due to friction is 344J.

<h3>What is the thermal energy?</h3>

Now we know that the total mechanical energy in the system is constant. The loss in energy is given by the loss in energy.

Thus, the kinetic energy is given as;

KE = 0.5 * mv^2 =0.5 * 15.0-kg * (1.10 m/s)^2 = 9.1 J

PE = mgh = 15.0-kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * 2.40 m = 352.8 J

The thermal energy is; 352.8 J - 9.1 J = 344J

What would the separation between two identical objects, one carrying 4 C of positive charge and the other 4 C of negative charg

azamat

Answer:

7.46×10⁻⁶ m

Explanation:

Applying,

F = kqq'/r²............ Equation 1

make r the subject of the equation

r = √(F/kqq').......... Equation 2

From the question,

Given: F = 8 N, q' = q= 4 C

Constant: k = 8.98×10⁹ Nm²/C²

Substitute these values into equation 2

r = √[8/(4×4×8.98×10⁹)]

r = √(55.7×10⁻¹²)

r = 7.46×10⁻⁶ m

murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

It was proposed by Isaac Newton

Explanation:

The law of universal attraction of expression

F = $G \ \frac{m_1m_2}{ r^2}$ G m1m2 / r ^ 2

where G is a constant, m₁ and m₂ are the masses of the bodies and r the distance between them.

It was proposed by Isaac Newton

With this law Newton explained that the force that pulls the moon towards the earth is the same as that which attracts an apple towards the earth
