Answer:

I hope this answer is correct

Explanation:

The mechanical advantage of a machine is 4. Mechanical advantage MA is the ratio of output (generated by the machine) force to input (applied to the machine) force. So MA = 4 means that for example if you apply 100 N then your machine will multiply that force and generate 400 N.

Falling raindrops frequently develop electric charges. Does this create noticeable forces between the droplets? Suppose two 1.8

umka2103 [35]

Answer:

a) $F=2.048\times 10^{-7}\ N$

b) $a=0.1138\ m.s^{-2}$

Explanation:

Given:

mass of raindrops, $m=1.8\times 10^{-6}\ kg$

charge on the raindrops, $q=+21\times 10^{-12}\ C$

horizontal distance between the raindrops, $r=0.0044\ m$

From the Coulomb's Law the force between the charges is given as:

$F=\frac{1}{4\pi.\epsilon_0} .\frac{q_1.q_2}{r^2}$

we have:

$\epsilon_0=8.854\times 10^{-12}\ C^2.N^{-1}.m^{-2}$

Now force:

$F=\frac{1}{4\pi\times 8.854\times 10^{-12}} .\frac{21\times 10^{-12}\times 21\times 10^{-12}}{0.0044^2}$

$F=2.048\times 10^{-7}\ N$

Now the acceleration on the raindrops due to the electrostatic force:

$a=\frac{F}{m}$

$a=\frac{2.048\times 10^{-7}}{1.8\times 10^{-6}}$

$a=0.1138\ m.s^{-2}$

How to derive the fourth equation of motion?

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

To derive the fourth equation of motion, first we have to consider the equation for acceleration and then to rearrange it. or v2 = u2 + 2as and this equation of motion can be used to find the final velocity or the distance travelled if the other values are given.

Explanation:

v= u + at

s =( u + v ) t /2

s = ut + at2/2

v2 = u2 + 2as

A child is riding in a child-restraint chair, securely fastened to the seat of a car. Assume the car has speed 47 km/h when it h

Elina [12.6K]

Answer: F = 1235 N

Explanation: Newton's Second Law of Motion describes the effect of mass and net force upon acceleration: $F_{net}=m.a$

Acceleration is the change of velocity in a period of time: $a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}$

Velocity of the car is in km/h. Transforming it in m/s:

$v=\frac{47.10^{3}}{36.10^{2}}$

v = 13 m/s

At the moment the car decelerates, acceleration is

$a=\frac{13}{0.2}$

a = 65 m/s²

Then, force will be

$F_{net}=19(65)$

$F_{net}$ = 1235 N

The horizontal net force the straps of the restraint chair exerted on the child to hold her is 1235 newtons.

1. The illuminance on a surface is 6 lux and the surface is 4 meters from the light source. What is the intensity of the source?

Crank

Answer

1) A. 96 Candelas

2) A. Both of these types of lenses have the ability to produce upright images.

3) C. 5 meters

Explanation

The formula for calculation the luminous intensity is;

Luminous intensity = illuminance × square radius

Lv = Ev × r²

= 6 × 4²

= 6 × 16

= 96 Candelabra

For converging lenses, an upright image is formed when the object is between the lens and the principal focus while a diverging lens always forms and upright image.

A. Both of these types of lenses have the ability to produce upright images.

Luminous intensity = illuminance × square radius

square radius = Luminous intensity/ illuminance

r² = 100/4

= 25

r = √25

= 5 m

How does pressure affect surface tension

tatyana61 [14]

the effect of pressure on surface tension can be attributed in part to absorption of gas at the surface of the liquid and in part to an intrinsic decrease in density of the liquid in the neighborhood of the surface.

In the case of liquids , Owing to contact forces between the edge of the surface and the vessel, the surface acquires a curvature, and if the liquid rises up at the edges where it meets the vessel, the pressure will be less in the liquid than in the air, for points just below and just above the surface. The vessel exerts an upward force on the liquid. This is simply a matter of looking at the directions of forces acting, knowing that the surface is under tension.
