Answer:

0.000230144 N

Explanation:

n = Number of electrons = $10\times 10^{23}$

q = Charge of electron = $1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

k = Coulomb constant = $8.99\times 10^{9}\ Nm^2/C^2$

r = Distance between obects = 1 m

The force would be

$F=\dfrac{nkq^2}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow F=\dfrac{10\times 10^{23}\times 8.99\times 10^9\times (1.6\times 10^{-19})^2}{1^2}\\\Rightarrow F=0.000230144$

The force would be 0.000230144 N

Objects 1 and 2 attract each other with a gravitational force of 12 units. If the mass of Object 2 is tripled, then the new grav

olasank [31]

Explanation:

Fgravity = G*(mass1*mass2)/D².

G is the gravitational constant, which has the same value throughout our universe.

D is the distance between the objects.

so, if you triple one of the masses, what does that do to our equation ?

Fgravitynew = G*(3*mass1*mass2)/D²

due to the commutative property of multiplication

Fgravitynew = 3* G*(mass1*mass2)/D² = 3* Fgravity

so, the right answer is 3×12 = 36 units.

A catapult launches a test rocket vertically upward from a well, giving the rocket an initial speed of 80.6 m/s at ground level.

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

44.64 seconds

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2as+u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 4.2\times 1180+80.6^2}\\\Rightarrow v=128.01\ m/s$

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 128.01=80.6+4.2t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{128.01-80.6}{4.2}=11.29\ s$

<u>Time taken to reach 1180 m is 11.29 seconds</u>

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0=128.01-9.8t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{128.01}{9.8}=13.06\ s$

<u>Time the rocket will keep going up after the engines shut off is 13.06 seconds.</u>

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{0^2-128.01^2}{2\times -9.8}\\\Rightarrow s=836.05\ m$

The distance the rocket will keep going up after the engines shut off is 836.05 m

Total distance traveled by the rocket in the upward direction is 1180+836.05 = 2016.05 m

The rocket will fall from this height

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 2016.05=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{2016.05\times 2}{9.8}}\\\Rightarrow t=20.29\ s$

<u>Time taken by the rocket to fall from maximum height is 20.29 seconds</u>

Time the rocket will stay in the air is 11.29+13.06+20.29 = 44.64 seconds

If the second harmonic of a certain string is 42 Hz, what is the fundamental frequency of the string?

sdas [7]

Data:
$f_{2} = 42 Hz$
n (Wave node)
V (Wave belly)
L (Wave length)
<span>The number of bells is equal to the number of the harmonic emitted by the string.
</span>
$f_{n} = \frac{nV}{2L}$

Wire 2 → 2º Harmonic → n = 2

$f_{n} = \frac{nV}{2L}$
$f_{2} = \frac{2V}{2L} 
$
$2V = f_{2} *2L$
$V = \frac{ f_{2}*2L }{2}$
$V = \frac{42*2L}{2}$
$V = \frac{84L}{2}$
$V = 42L$

Wire 1 → 1º Harmonic or Fundamental rope → n = 1

$f_{n} = \frac{nV}{2L}$
$f_{1} = \frac{1V}{2L}$
$f_{1} = \frac{V}{2L}$

If, We have:
V = 42L
Soon:
$f_{1} = \frac{V}{2L}$
$f_{1} = \frac{42L}{2L}$
$\boxed{f_{1} = 21 Hz}$

Answer:

<span>The fundamental frequency of the string:
</span>21 Hz
