Answer:

0.055 N

Explanation:

From coulomb's law,

F α 1/r²

F = k/r²

F₁r₁² = F₂r₂²......................... Equation 1

Where F₁ = Initial force, r₁ = initial distance, F₂ = Final force, r₂ = Final distance.

making F₂ the subject of the equation

F₂ = F₁r₁²/r₂²..................... Equation 2

Given: F₁ = 5.50 N.

Let: r₁ = x m, then r₂= 10x m

Substitute into equation 2

F₂ = 5.5(x²)/(10x)²

F₂ = 5.5x²/100x²

F₂ = 5.5/100

F₂ = 0.055 N.

Hence the force becomes 0.055 N

A dumbell has a mass of 95 kg. What force must be applied to accelerate it upward at 2.2 m/s2?
Sveta_85 [38]
A :-) F = ma
Given - m = 95 kg
a = 2.2 m/s^2
Solution -
F = ma
F = 95 x 2.2
F = 209

.:. The force is 209 N

Ngan has a weight of 314.5 N on Mars and a weight 833.0 N on Earth. What is Ngan's mass on Earth?
mr_godi [17]

Ngan's mass on earth is 85kg.

Ngan has a weight on Mars = 14.5 N

Ngan’s weight on Earth = 833.0 N

Ngan’s mass on Earth = ?

<span>Fg,earth = mg(earth)</span>

<span>M = Fg,earth </span><span>/ g(earth)</span>

<span>M = 833.0 N / 9.8 m/s2</span>

<span>M = 85 kg</span>

Beams of high-speed protons can be produced in "guns" using electric fields to accelerate the protons. A certain gun has an elec
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer: v = 2.75 * 10^7 m/s

Explanation: Since the electric field is a uniform one and the distance is small, the motion of the electron is of a constant acceleration, hence newton's laws of motion is applicable.

From the question

E=strength of electric field = 214N/c

q=magnitude of an electronic charge = 1.609* 10^-16c

m= mass of an electronic charge = 9.11*10^-31kg

v = velocity of electron.

S= distance covered = 1cm = 0.01m

a = acceleration of electron.

F = ma but F=Eq

Eq = ma.

a = Eq/m

a = 214 * 1.609*10^-16/ 9.11 * 10^-31

a = 344.32 * 10^-16/ 9.11 * 10 ^-31

a = 3. 779* 10^16 m/s²

Before the electron is accelerated, they are always not moving, hence initial velocity (u) = 0.

By using the equation of motion, we have

v² = u² + 2aS

But u = 0

v² = 2aS

v²= 2* 3.779*10^16 * 0.01

v² = 7.558 * 10^14

v = √7.558 * 10^14

v = 2.75 * 10^7 m/s.
