<u>Answer:</u>

charge passed = 1800 C

<u>Explanation:</u>

• We can use the following formula to calculate charge:

$\boxed{Q = It}$ ,

where:

Q = charge in Coulombs

I = current in amperes (0.5 A)

t = time in seconds (1 h = 60 min = 3600 s).

• Substituting the values into the formula:

charge = 0.5 × 3600

= 1800 C

the velocity of a car traveling in the positive direction decreases from 32 m/s to 24 m/s in 4 seconds. what is the average acce

anastassius [24]

Answer:

$a=-2m/sec^2$

Negative sign shows that velocity of the car is decreases at a constant rate

Explanation:

We have given velocity of the car is decreases from 32 m /sec to 24 m/sec in 4 second

So initial velocity of the car u = 32 m /sec

And finally car reaches to a velocity of 24 m/sec

Time taken to change in velocity = 4 sec

So final velocity v = 24 m/sec

From first equation of motion v = u+at

So $24=32+a\times 4$

$a=-2m/sec^2$

Negative sign shows that velocity of the car is decreases at a constant rate

In which one(s) of the following situations will there be an INCREASE in Kinetic Energy? Group of answer choices A block slides

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

The Kinetic Energy INCREASE in the following situations:

a)A block slides down a frictionless incline:

e)A merry go round rotates faster due to the push by a person.

Explanation:

The energy kinetics is proportional to the square of the velocity:

$E_k=1/2*mv^2$

We study the cases:

a)A block slides down a frictionless incline:

The gravity made a positive work and the box get a extra velocity, then the kinetics energy INCREASE

b)A box is pulled across a rough floor at constant speed:

The magnitude of the velocity does not change, so the kinetics energy does not change as well

c)A stone at the end of a string is whirled in a horizontal circle at constant speed:

The magnitude of the velocity does not change, so the kinetics energy does not change as well

d)A projectile approaches its maximum height:

If the projectile approaches its maximum height, its velocity approaches to zero. Then the kinetics Energy DECREASE

e)A merry go round rotates faster due to the push by a person.

Thanks to the push, the magnitude of the velocity INCREASE, so the kinetics energy INCREASE as well

Sphere A has a charge of +2 x 10 to the power of -6 coulomb and is brought into contact with a similar sphere, B which has a cha

Setler [38]

When sphere A and B are brought in contact and separated, charge on each sphere becomes [2x10^-6 + (-4x10^-6)]/ 2 = -1x10^-6 C.

That is, charge is equally separated and is the average of charges on both spheres. The reason behind equal charge on both spheres after separation is, when they are kept in contact, their potential difference becomes same.
