Melanie watched the path a baseball followed after a pitcher threw it. She noticed that the ball traveled horizontally away from

the pitcher as well as downward toward the ground. What force caused the ball to accelerate in the downward direction when it was thrown?

A uniformly charged sphere has a total charge of 300uc and a radius of 8cm. Find the electric field density at A point 16cm from

s2008m [1.1K]

E = <u>kQ</u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u>

(r + h)²

where,

k = 9 × 10^9Nm²C^-2

Q = total charge, 300uC = 300 × 10^ -6C

r = 8 × 10^ -2m

h = 16 × 10^ -2m

then,

E = <u>9</u><u>e</u><u>9</u><u> </u><u>*</u><u> </u><u>3</u><u>0</u><u>0</u><u>e</u><u>^</u><u>-</u><u>6</u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u>

(8e^-2 + 16e^-2)²

E = 4687500N/C

A traffic light of weight 100 N is supported by two ropes that make 30-degree angle with the horizontal. What is the vertical co

alina1380 [7]

Answer:

$T_{vertical} = 50 N$

Explanation:

given,

traffic light weight = 100 N

angle at which the rope is supported = 30°

vertical component of force = ?

$2 T sin \theta= W$

$2 T sin 30^0= 100$

$T = \dfrac{100}{2 sin 30^0}$

$T = 100\ N$

$T_{vertical} = T sin 30^0$

$T_{vertical} = 100\times \dfrac{1}{2}$

$T_{vertical} = 50 N$

Two cars approach a street corner at right angles to each

irakobra [83]

Answer:

the angle is given by

Tan theta = 35/59 = 0.59

so theta = Tan ^-1 ( 0.59 )

theta = 30.54 deg.

Two point charges, initially 2.0 cm apart, experience a 1.0 N force. If they are moved to a new separation of 0.25 cm, what is t

den301095 [7]

Explanation:

Th electric force between charges is inversely proportional to the square of distance between them. It means,

$F\propto \dfrac{1}{r^2}$

Initial distance, r₁ = 2 cm

Final distance, r₂ = 0.25 cm

Initial force, F₁ = 1 N

We need to find the electric force between charges if the new separation of 0.25 cm. So,

$\dfrac{F_1}{F_2}=(\dfrac{r_2}{r_1})^2\\\\F_2=\dfrac{F_1r_1^2}{r_2^2}\\\\F_2=\dfrac{1\times 2^2}{(0.25)^2}\\\\F_2=64\ N$

So, the new force is 64 N if the separation between charges is 64 N.

A rotating light is located 13 feet from a wall. The light completes one rotation every 3 seconds. Find the rate at which the li

saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

29.2 ft/s

Explanation:

The distance of the light's projection on the wall

y = 13 tan θ

where θ is the light's angle from perpendicular to the wall.

The light completes one rotation every 3 seconds, that is, 2π in 3 seconds,

Angular speed = w = (2π/3)

w = (θ/t)

θ = wt = (2πt/3)

(dθ/dt) = (2π/3)

y = 13 tan θ

(dy/dt) = 13 sec² θ (dθ/dt)

(dy/dt) = 13 sec² θ (2π/3)

(dy/dt) = (26π/3) sec² θ

when θ = 15°

(dy/dt) = (26π/3) sec² (15°)

(dy/dt) = 29.2 ft/s
