The new force becomes One Ninth (1/9) of the original force.

The force between two point charges (let's say \mathrm{Q} 1$ and $\mathrm{Q} 2$ ) is given by the following formula:

Force $=k \times Q 1 \times Q 2$divided by ( $r$ squared)

Here r is the distance.

If we multiply r by three then after squaring it will become $9 \times r$ squared.

Let's rewrite the formula and call it new Force:

New Force =\mathrm{K} \times \mathrm{Q} 1 \times \mathrm{Q} 2 divided by $(9 \times \mathrm{r}$ squared )

Now just separate the 9 :

New Force $=1 / 9(\mathrm{~K} \times \mathrm{Q} 1 \times \mathrm{Q} 2$divided by $(\mathrm{r}$ Squared ))

New Force $=1 / 9$ (Force)

So turns out that the new force becomes One Ninth (1/9) of the original force.

A force is an effect that can alter an object's motion according to physics. An object with mass can change its velocity, or accelerate, as a result of a force. An obvious way to define force is as a push or a pull. A force is a vector quantity since it has both magnitude and direction.

A marble, rolling with speed of 20m/sec rolls off the edge of the table that is 180m high (g=10m/sec2), find time taken to drop
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

<em>Choice: c. 6sec</em>

Explanation:

<u>Horizontal Launch </u>

When an object is thrown horizontally with a speed (v) from a height (h), it describes a curved path ruled by gravity until it finally hits the ground.

The horizontal component of the velocity is always constant because no acceleration exists in that direction, thus:

v_x=v

The vertical component of the velocity changes in time because gravity makes the object fall at increasing speed given by:

v_y=g.t

Where g=10 m/s^2

To calculate the time the object takes to hit the ground, we use the same formula as for free-fall, since the time does not depend on the initial speed:

\displaystyle t=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}

The marble rolls the edge of the table at a height of h=180 m, thus:

\displaystyle t=\sqrt{\frac{2*180}{10}}

\displaystyle t=\sqrt{36}

t = 6 sec

Choice: c. 6sec

What is the acceleration of a 1000 kg car subject to a 550 N net force
Xelga [282]

Answer:

The acceleration of a 1000 kg car subject to a 550 N net force = 0.55 m/s^2

Explanation:

Given:

F = 550 N

m = 1000 kg

To Find:

a = ?

Solution:

So by the equation by Newton's 2nd Law of Motion,

F = m x a

550 N = 1000 kg x a

a = 550 N/ 1000 kg

a = 0.55 m/s^2

Therefore,

The acceleration of a 1000 kg car subject to a 550 N net force = 0.55 m/s^2

Suppose you monitor a large number (many thousands) of stars over a period of 3 years, searching for planets through the transit
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

2. You must be able to precisely measure variations in the star's brightness with time.

5. As seen from Earth, the planet's orbit must be seen nearly edge–on (in the plane of our line-of-sight).

6. You must repeatedly obtain spectra of the star that the planet orbits.

Explanation:

The transit method is a very important and effective tool for discovering new exoplanets (the planets orbiting other stars out of the solar system). In this method the stars are observed for a long duration. When the exoplanet will cross in front of theses stars as seen from Earth, the brightness of the star will dip. To observe this dip following conditions must be met:

1. The orbit of the planet should be co-planar with the plane of our line of sight. Then only its transition can be observed.

2. The brightness of the star must be observed precisely as the period of transit can be less than a second as seen from Earth. Also the dip in brightness depends on the size of the planet. If the planet is not that big the intensity dip will be very less.

3. The spectrum of the star needs to be studied and observe during the transit and normally to find out the details about the planets.

4. Also, the orbital period should be less than the period of observation for the transit to occur at least once.
