ANSWER and EXPLANATION

We want to identify if there will be an electric field and a magnetic field around the two sticks electrified by charges of opposite signs.

An electric field is a physical field that surrounds electrically charged particles and exerts a force on other charged particles in the surrounding.

This implies that the presence of electric charges on both sticks generates electric fields on them. Since the two charges are opposite, the electric force acting on them will be attractive.

Hence, there is an electric field.

A stationary charged object produces an electric field, as explained above, but will only produce a magnetic field if there is a motion of the object.

Hence, except the two sticks are caused to move, there will be no magnetic field around them.

the density of dry air at 20 degrees celsius is 1.20 g/L. What is the mass of air, in kilograms, of a room that measures 24.0m b
horsena [70]
<h2>Mass of air in a room that measures 24.0 m by 15.0 m by 4.0 m is 1728 kg.</h2>

Explanation:

Density of air = 1.20 g/L = \frac{1.20\times 10^{-3}kg}{10^{-3}m^3}=1.2kg/m^3

Size of room is 24.0m by 15.0 m by 4.0 m

Volume of room = 24 x 15 x 4 = 1440 m³

We know the equation

            Mass = Volume x Density

            Mass = 1440 x 1.2

            Mass = 1728 kg  

Mass of air in a room that measures 24.0 m by 15.0 m by 4.0 m is 1728 kg.

Anton [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Gravitational force between two objects having mass m₁ and m₂ at a distance R

F = G m₁ m₂ / R²

Force between baby and father F₁ = 6.67x10⁻¹¹ x 4.1 x 120 / .18²

= 1.01 x 10⁻⁶ N

b )

Force between baby and Jupiter

F₂ = 6.67x10⁻¹¹ x 1.9x 10²⁷ x 4.1 / ( 6.29 x 10¹¹ )²

= 1.31 x 10⁻⁶  N

c )

Ratio = 1.01 / 1.31

= .77

A paintball’s mass is 0.0032kg. A typical paintball strikes a target moving at 85.3 m/s.
vekshin1

Answer:

A)  If the paintball stops completely the magnitude of the change in the paintball’s momentum is  p=0.273kg*m/s

B) If the paintball bounces off its target and afterward moves in the opposite direction with the same speed, the change in the paintball’s momentum is  p=0.546kg*m/s

C) A paintball bouncing off your skin in the opposite direction with the same speed hurts more than a paintball exploding upon your skin because of the strength exerted is twice than if it explodes.

Explanation:

Hi

A) We use the formula of momentum p=mv, so we have p=0.0032kg*85.3m/s=0.273kg*m/s

B) We use the same formula above, then due we have a change of direction at the same speed, therefore the change in the momentum is the double so

p=2*0.0032kg*85.3m/s=0.546kg*m/s.

C) The average strength of the force an object exerts during impact is determined by the amount the object’s momentum changes. therefore

F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}, as we don't have any data about the impact time but we know momentum is twice, time does no matter and strength is twice too.

A 0.5 kg stone is raised from 1m to 2m height from the ground. what is the change in potential energy of the stone?
Usimov [2.4K]

Given: The mass of stone (m) = 0.5 kg

Raised from heights (h₁) = 1.0 m to (h₂) = 2.0 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

To find: The change in potential energy of the stone

Formula: The potential energy (P) = mgh

where, all alphabets are in their usual meanings.

Now, we shall calculate the change in potential energy of the stone

Δ P = P₂ - P₁ = mg (h₂ - h₁)

or,                = 0.5 kg ×9.8 m/s² ×(2.0 m - 1.0 m)

or,                = 4.9 J

Hence, the required change in the potential energy of the stone will be 4.9 J

A certain field line diagram illustrates the electric field due to three particles that carry charges 5.0 μC, -3.0 μC, and -2.0
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

6

Explanation:

Number of lines emanate from + 5 micro coulomb is 15 .

They terminates at negative charges that means at - 3 micro coulomb and - 2 micro Coulomb.

the electric field lines terminates at - 3 micro Coulomb and - 2 micro Coulomb is in the ratio of 3 : 2.

So the lines terminating at - 3 micro coulomb

                                    = \frac{3}{5}\times 15 = 9

So the lines terminating at - 2 micro coulomb

                                    = \frac{2}{5}\times 15 = 6

So, the number of filed lines terminates at - 2 micro Coulomb are 6.
