Only conservative forces perform work on an object over a span of time. During this time, the total mechanical energy of the obj
siniylev [52]

During this time, the total mechanical energy of the object remains constant.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

The sum total of potential energy and the kinetic energy presented in the system is called mechanical energy. The total mechanical energy in the system, which represents the combined potential and kinetic energies, remains constant as long as the only force work at conservative forces, and mechanical energy is maintained on this principle.

For example, a gravity box in which we throw the ball straights up, and then leave the hand with a specific amounts of kinetic energy. In the first half of the track, there is no kinetic energy, but it has potential energy similar to kinetic energy that it had when that left our hand. When we catch that again, it has the same kinetic energy as when that left our hand. That is why gravity belongs to the category of conservative forces.

Calculate the magnitude of the normal force acting on a 20 kg block the block is resting on the surface of an elevator accelera
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

Fn = 246.2 N

Explanation:

I assume you meant meters per second squared for acceleration of the elevator.  All you have to after your picture/free-body diagram is made is add the forces together.  You could do this by finding them separately like I did or use Fn = m(Fg + Fe). I just calculated magnitude and didn't worry about signs.

Two small spheres, each carrying a net positive charge, are separated by 0.400 m. You have been asked to perform measurements th
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

a)  q₁ = 15. 28 10⁻⁶C, b)  q₂ = 5.64 10⁻⁶ C

Explanation:

For this exercise we use Newton's second law where force is Coulomb's electric force

Case 1. Distance (x₁ = 0.200 m) from the third sphere

         F₁ = F₁₃ - F₂₃

         F₁ = k q₁q₃ / x₁² - k q₂ q₃ / (0.4 - x₁)²

         F₁ = k q₃ (q₁ / x₁² - q₂ / (0.4- x₁)²

Case2 Distance (x₂ = 0.6 m) from the third sphere

        F₂ = F₁₃ + F₂₃

        F₂ = k q₁q₃ / x₂² + k q₂q₃ / (0.4- x₂)²

        F₂ = k q₃ (q₁ / x₂² + q₂ / (0.4-x₂)²

The distance is between the spheres, in the annex you can see the configuration of the charge and forces

Let's replace the values

        F₁ = 8.99 10⁹ 3.00 10⁻⁶⁶ (q₁ / 0.2² - q₂ / (0.4-0.2)²

        F₂ = 8.99 10⁹ 3.00 10⁻⁶ (q₁ / 0.6² + q₂ / (0.4-0.6)²

        6.50 = 674. 25 10³ (q₁ –q₂)

        3.50 = 26.97 10³ (q₁ / 0.36 + q₂ / 0.04)

We have a system of two equations with two unknowns, let's solve it. Let's clear q1 in the first and substitute in the second

         q₁ = q₂ + 6.50 / 674 10³

         3.50 / 26.97 10³ = (q₂ + 9.64 10⁻⁶) /0.36 + q₂ / 0.04

         1.2978 10⁻⁴ = q₂ / 0.36 + q₂ / 0.04 + 26.77 10⁻⁶

         q₂ (1 / 0.36 + 1 / 0.04) = 129.78 10⁻⁶ + 26.77 10⁻⁶

         q₂ 27,777 = 156,557 10⁻⁶

         q₂ = 156.557 10-6 /27.777

         q₂ = 5.636 10⁻⁶ C

We look for q1 in the other equation

        q₁ = q₂ + 6.50 / 674 10³

        q₁ = 5.636 10⁻⁶ + 9.6439 10⁻⁶

        q₁ = 15. 28 10⁻⁶C

What do astonomers use to calculate the age of the universe
makvit [3.9K]

Answer: Stars

Explanation: Some stars have remained intact since the Big Bang. These stars are shown in something called the HR diagram with portrays the brightness and largeness of the star. Also, white dwarfs and black dwarfs can be traced back which may correspond with the initiation of the universe.
