Two particles, each of charge Q, are fixed at opposite corners of a square that lies in the plane of the page. A positive test c

amid [387]

Answer:

The magnitude of the net force is √2F.

Explanation:

Since the two particles have the same charge Q, they exert the same force on the test charge; both attractive or repulsive. So, the angle between the two forces is 90° in any case. Now, as we know the magnitude of these forces and that they form a 90° angle, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate the magnitude of the resultant net force:

$F_N=\sqrt{F^{2}+F^{2}}\\\\F_N=\sqrt{2F^{2}}\\\\F_N=\sqrt{2}F$

Then, it means that the net force acting on the test charge has a magnitude of √2F.

A bat can detect small objects such as an insect whose size is approximately equal to the wavelength of the sound the bat makes.

zaharov [31]

Given that,

Frequency emitted by the bat, f = 47.6 kHz

The speed off sound in air, v = 413 m/s

We need to find the wavelength detected by the bat. The speed of a wave is given by formula as follows :

$v=f\lambda\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{413}{47.6\times 10^3}\\\\\lambda=0.00867\ m$

$\lambda=8.67\ mm$

So, the bat can detect small objects such as an insect whose size is approximately equal to the wavelength of the sound the bat makes i.e. 8.67 mm.

Can something have energy without having momentum? explain. can something have momentum without having energy? defend your answe

marta [7]

Momentum is a product mass and velocity. If a certain object posses a kinetic energy, then it should have a momentum since it is moving which has a velocity. However, if the object is at rest and only has potential energy, then it would not have momentum. So, for the first question the answer would be yes, an object can have energy without having any momentum. For the second question, every object whether it is moving or at rest, possess some energy, potential for an object at rest and kinetic for an object that is moving. Thus, the answer would be no, an object having momentum would always have energy.

He throws a second ball (B2) upward with the same initial velocity at the instant that the first ball is at the ceiling. c. How

Gwar [14]

Answer:

hello your question has some missing parts

A juggler performs in a room whose ceiling is 3 m above the level of his hands. He throws a ball vertically upward so that it just reaches the ceiling.

answer : c) 0.39 sec

d) 2.25 m

e) 1.92 m/sec

Explanation:

The initial velocity of the first ball = 7.67 m/sec ( calculated )

Time required for first ball to reach ceiling = 0.78 secs ( calculated )

Determine how long after the second ball is thrown do the two balls pass each other

Distance travelled by first ball downwards when it meets second ball can be expressed as : d = 1/2 gt^2 = 9.8t^2 / 2

hence d = 4.9t^2 ----- ( 1 )

Initial speed of second ball = first ball initial speed = 7.67 m/sec

3 - d = 7.67t - 4.9t ---- ( 2 )

equating equation 1 and 2

3 = 7.67t therefore t = 0.39 sec

Determine how far the balls are above the Juggler's hands ( when the balls pass each other )

form equation 1 ;

d = 4.9 t^2 = 4.9 *(0.39)^2 = 0.75 m

therefore the height the balls are above the Juggler's hands is

3 - d = 3 - 0.75 = 2.25 m

determine their velocities when the pass each other

velocity = displacement / time

velocity = d / t = 0.75 / 0.39 sec = 1.92 m/sec
