For a set of very long (essentially infinitely long) charged parallel plates, the electric field between them is constant, and the electric field is given by

E = ΔV/d

ΔV is the potential difference between the plates and d is the distance of their separation.

If d is halved but E stays constant, then by the relationship above, ΔV must also have been halved.

A. Potential difference was halved.

Two electrons in a vacuum exert force of F = 3.8E-09 N on each other. They are then moved such that they are separated by x = 8.
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

F_n = 5.65E-11 N

d =  1.20682E-31 m

Explanation:

F = 3.8E-09 N

where

m = Mass of electron = 9.109E−31 kilograms

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67E-11 m³/kgs²

x = Distance between them

F=G\frac{m^2}{x^2}\\\Rightarrow 3.8E-09=G\frac{m^2}{x^2}

For F_n

F_n=G\frac{m^2}{x^2}\\\Rightarrow F_n=G\frac{m^2}{(8.2x)^2}\\\Rightarrow F_n=G\frac{m^2}{67.24x^2}

Dividing the above equations we get

\frac{F}{F_n}=\frac{G\frac{m^2}{x^2}}{G\frac{m^2}{67.24x^2}}\\\Rightarrow \frac{F}{F_n}=67.24\\\Rightarrow F_n=\frac{F}{67.24}\\\Rightarrow F_n=\frac{3.8E-09}{67.24}\\\Rightarrow F_n=5.65E-11\ N

F_n = 5.65E-11 N

F=G\frac{m^2}{x^2}\\\Rightarrow x=\sqrt{\frac{Gm^2}{F}}\\\Rightarrow x=\sqrt{\frac{G}{F}}m\\\Rightarrow x=\sqrt{\frac{6.67E-11}{3.8E-09}}9.109E-31\\\Rightarrow x=1.20682E-31\ m

d =  1.20682E-31 m

when the sun and moon are in a line with the earth, the: group of answer choices arrival of high tide will be delayed. gravitati
Alecsey [184]

When the sun, moon, and Earth are lined up (during a new or full moon), the solar tide adds to the lunar tide to produce extremely high  tides and very low tides, both of which are known as spring tides.

  • Basically describes a situation in astronomy where three celestial bodies align in a straight line as part of a gravitational system. The phrase is frequently used to describe how the Sun, Moon, and Earth are in a straight line.
  • The moon is responsible for causing high and low tides. The tidal force is produced by the moon's gravitational pull. Earth and its water protrude outward on both the side that is closest to and farthest from the moon as a result of the tidal force. These watery peaks are high tide

A car is parked on a cliff overlooking the ocean on an incline that makes an angle of 24.0° below the horizontal. The negligent
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

(a): The car's relative position to the base of the cliff is x= 32.52m.

(b): The lenght of the car in the ir is tfall= 1.78 sec.

Explanation:

Vo= 0

V= ?

d= 50m

h= 30m

a= 4 m/s²

t= √(2*d/a)

t= 5 sec

V= a*t

V= 20 m/s

Vx= V * cos(24º)

Vx= 18.27 m/s

Vy= V* sin(24º)

Vy= 8.13 m/s

h= Vy*t + g*t²/2

clearing t:

tfall= 1.78 sec (b)

x= Vx * tfall

x= 32.52 m (a)

What length of tube would be required to produce a second tone under the same experimental conditions? Explain your answer.
Alisiya [41]

There is an indirect relationship between length and frequency. The longer the length the pipe has, the higher frequency it is. The shorter the length the pipe has, the lower frequency it is.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The four properties of the string that affect its frequency are length, diameter, tension, and density. These properties are described below: When the length of a string is changed, it will vibrate with a different frequency. Shorter strings have higher frequency and therefore higher pitch.

The longer the tube is the lower the pitch of the note that it can emit. When a tube is heated it expands and so is longer! As the gas in the tube gets warmer the molecules move faster, that means they can carry the vibrations of the sound wave more rapidly and so the pitch goes up.
