Answer:

a=708.3m/s^2

Explanation:

The force experimented by a charge <em>q </em>in a uniform electric field <em>E</em><em> </em>is <em>F=qE</em>.

Newton's 2nd Law tells us that the relation between acceleration <em>a</em> a mass <em>m </em>experiments when a force <em>F </em>is applied to it is <em>F=ma</em>.

Combining these equations we have <em>am=qE</em>, and since we want the acceleration of the speck of dust, we substitute our values:

a=\frac{qE}{m}=\frac{(10\times10^{-6}C)(850N/C)}{12\times10^{-6}Kg}=708.3m/s^2

timurjin [86]

Answer:

<h3>B. 19miles</h3>

Explanation:

If Freddy drives 4 miles east to his friend's house. He then travels 9 more miles east to the supermarket. Finally on his way back home he out  of gas 6 miles after leaving the supermarket, the distance travel by fred will be the sup of all the distances he covered throughout the journey.

Distance covered by fred = 4miles + 9miles + 6miles

Distance covered by fred = 13miles + 6miles

Distance covered by fred  = 19miles

A plane drops a hamper of medical supplies from a height of 5000 m during a practice run over the ocean. The plane’s horizontal
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

346.70015 m/s

Explanation:

In the x axis speed is

v_x=149\ m/s

In the y axis

v_y=\sqrt{2gh}\\\Rightarrow v_y=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 5000}

The resultant velocity is given by

v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{149^2+2\times 9.8\times 5000}\\\Rightarrow v=346.70015\ m/s

The magnitude of the overall velocity of the hamper at the instant it strikes the surface of the ocean is 346.70015 m/s

A 4 cm diameter "bobber" with a mass of 3 grams floats on a pond. A thin, light fishing line is tied to the bottom of the bobber
Tasya [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

Calculate the volume of the lead

V=\frac{m}{d}\\\\=\frac{10g}{11.3g'cm^3}

Now calculate the bouyant force acting on the lead

F_L = Vpg

F_L=(\frac{10g}{11.3g/cm^3} )(1g/cm^3)(9.8m/s^2)\\\\=8.673\times 10^{-3}N

This force will act in upward direction

Gravitational force on the lead due to its mass  will act in downward direction

Hence the difference of this two force

T=mg-F_L\\\\=(10\times10^{-3}kg(9.8m/s^2)-8.673\times 10^{-3}\\\\=8.933\times10^{-3}N

If V is the volume submerged in the water then bouyant force on the bobber is

F_B=V'pg

Equate bouyant force with the tension and gravitational force

F_B=T_mg\\\\V'pg=\frac{(8.933\times10^{-2}N)+mg}{pg} \\\\V'=\frac{(8.933\times10^{-2}N)+mg}{pg}

Now Total volume of bobble is

\frac{V'}{V^B} =\frac{\frac{(8.933\times10^{-2})+Mg}{pg} }{\frac{4}{3} \pi R^3 }\times100\\\\=\frac{\frac{(8.933\times10^{-2})+(3)(9.8)}{(1000)(9.8)} }{\frac{4}{3} \pi (4.0\times10^{-2})^3 }\times100\\\\

=\large\boxed{4.52 \%}
