The charge on each the balloon is 100nC or 1.2 × 10^-7 C

Consider two balloons of diameter 0.200m each with a mass of 1.00g hanging apart with 0.0500m separation on the ends of string making angles of 10.0° with the vertical.

The charge on each balloon can be found from

F_{e} = \frac{k_{e}q^{2} }{r^{2}} \\q = \sqrt{\frac{k_{e}q^{2} }{r^{2}}} \\\\q = \sqrt{\frac{(2\times10^{-3N}(0.25m)^{2}}{8.99\times10^{9}N\cdotm^{2}/C^{2}}\\

q = 1.2\times10^{-7}C or 100nC

An electric charge is the property of matter where it has more or fewer electrons than protons in its atoms. Electrons carry a negative charge and protons carry a positive charge. The matter is positively charged if it contains more protons than electrons and negatively charged if it contains more electrons than protons.

Observations of galaxies and clusters of galaxies indicate that about ____ percent of the matter in the universe is dark matter.
Setler79 [48]

All the stars, spheres and galaxies that can be perceived nowadays make up just 5 percent of the universe. The former 95 percent is prepared of stuff stargazers can't see, notice or even understand. These secretive substances are called dark energy and dark matter. Experts determine their presence grounded on their gravitational influence on what little bits of the universe can be perceived.

A 0.311 kg tennis racket moving 30.3 m/s east makes an elastic collision with a 0.0570 kg ball moving 19.2 m/s west. Find the ve
amm1812

<u>Answer</u>:

The velocity of the tennis racket after the collision 14.966 m/s.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

let the following:

m₁ = mass of tennis racket = 0.311 kg

m₂ = mass of the ball = 0.057 kg

u₁ = velocity of tennis racket before collision = 30.3 m/s

u₂ = velocity of the ball before collision = -19.2 m/s

v₁ = velocity of tennis racket after collision

v₂ = velocity of the ball after collision

Right (+) , Left (-)

An elastic collision is an encounter between two bodies in which the total kinetic energy of the two bodies remains the same.

So, the total kinetic energy before collision = the total kinetic energy after collision.

So, 0.5 m₁ u₁² + 0.5 m₂ u₂² = 0.5 m₁ v₁² + 0.5 m₂ v₂²  ⇒ (1)

Also, the total momentum before collision = the total momentum after collision.

So, m₁ u₁ + m₂ u₂ = m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂  ⇒ (2)

Solving (1) and (2):

∴ v₁ = [ u₁ * (m₁ - m₂) + u₂ * 2m₂ ]/ (m₁ + m₂)

      = ( 30.3 * (0.311 - 0.057) - 19.2 * 2 * 0.057 ) / ( 0.311 + 0.057)

      = 14.966 m/s.

So, the velocity of the tennis racket after the collision 14.966 m/s.

A 150 g baseball is traveling horizontally at 50 m/s. If the ball takes 20 ms to stop once it is in contact with the catcher’s g
Sliva [168]
To solve for force, you need to get the product of mass and acceleration. 
F = ma

Your given is:
m = 150g
a = ?
v = 50 m/s
t = 20ms

As you can see, you do not have acceleration yet. But if you read the problem you can come up with the formula of acceleration. 
Acceleration is the change in velocity over a period of time.

a = change in velocity/time

To get the change in velocity, you get the difference between the initial velocity and final velocity:

a =  \frac{vf-vi}{t}

The ball was moving initially at a velocity of 50 m/s and it came to a stop. This is your clue. If a ball comes to a stop then that means that the final velocity of the ball is 0 m/s. 

So we can put it into our formula now:

a = \frac{0m/s-50m/s}{20ms}

WAIT! As you can see, the units do not match. We have ms and s into our equation and that means you cannot proceed till they are the same. First we need to convert ms to s. 

20ms x \frac{1s}{1000ms} = \frac{20s}{1000} = 0.02s

So your new time is 0.02s. Now we put this time into the formula:


a = \frac{0m/s-50m/s}{0.02s}
a =  \frac{-50m/s}{0.02s}  = -2,500 m/ s^{2}

As you can see our acceleration is a negative value, this indicates that it decelerated or slowed down which makes sense because it was brought to a stop. 

So now we have our acceleration. Now using this, we can get our force. 

F= ma

Before we start doing this, you need to take note that the unit of force is N, but when you expand it, it is kg.m/ s^{2} but as you can see our mass given is in grams. So again, before you put them into the equation we need to change it into kg first. 

150g =  \frac{1kg}{1,000g}  =  \frac{150kg}{1,000}  = 0.150kg

Our new mass is 0.150kg. 

To make things clearer, let us write down all our new values:

m = 0.150kg
a = -2,500 m/ s^{2}

Now that all our units match, we can put that into our formula:

F= ma
F= (0.150kg)(-2,500m/s^{2})
F = -375kg.m/ s^{2}  or -375N

The value again is negative because it is going against the initial direction of the ball. But if your instructor just wants to get the value of force or the magnitude of the force, just disregard the sign.
