A physical science test book has a mass of 2.2 kg. what is the weight on the Earth

1 answer:

6 0

Weight = (mass) x (acceleration of gravity).

On Earth, acceleration of gravity = 9.8 m/s² (rounded)

On Earth, 2.2kg of mass weighs (2.2kg) x (9.8 m/s²) =

21.6 kg-m/s² = 21.6 Newtons.

(That's about 4.85 pounds.)

Two point charges each carrying a charge of + 4.5 E - 6 C are located 4.5 meters away from each other. How strong is the electro

BARSIC [14]

Answer:

0.009 N, repulsive

Explanation:

The electrostatic force between two electric charges is given by:

$F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}$

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q1 and q2 are the two charges

r is the separation between the two charges

In this problem, we have

$q_1 =q_2 = +4.5\cdot 10^{-6}C$ are the two charges

r = 4.5 m is their separation

Substituting into the equation, we find

$F=(9\cdot 10^9 Nm^2 C^{-2})\frac{(+4.5\cdot 10^{-6} C)(4.5\cdot 10^{-6} C)}{(4.5 m)^2}=0.009 N$

Moreover, the force is repulsive. In fact, the following rules apply:

- When two charges have same sign, they repel each other

- When two charges have opposite signs, they attract each other

An engine absorbs 1.69 kJ from a hot reservoir at 277°C and expels 1.25 kJ to a cold reservoir at 27°C in each cycle.

Anna35 [415]

Answer

Given,

Energy absorbed, $Q_H = 1.69\ kJ$

Energy expels, $Q_C = 1.25\ kJ$

Temperature of cold reservoir, T = 27°C

a) Efficiency of engine

$\eta = \dfrac{Q_H - Q_C}{Q_H}\times 100$

$\eta = \dfrac{1.69 - 1.25}{1.69}\times 100$

$\eta =26.03 %$

b) Work done by the engine

$W = Q_H- Q_C$

$W =1.69 - 1.25$

$W = 0.44\ kJ$

c) Power output

t = 0.296 s

$P = \dfrac{W}{t}$

$P = \dfrac{0.44}{0.296}$

$P = 1.486\ kW$

The unit for measuring electric power is the A. ampere. B. volt. C. ohm. D. watt.

Drupady [299]

The correct answer is D: Watt. This unit was named after James Watt, and is used to express the equivalent of one joule per second in energy. In experiments and on the packaging for electrical products such as light-bulbs, the measurement will usually be written in its abbreviated format: W.

Does the charge that flows into the capacitor during the charging go all the way through the capacitor and back to the battery,

snow_lady [41]

The capacitor is used to store electric charge.That is what makes capacitors special. 
The charge that flows into the capacitor is stored on the plate of the capacitor that the source voltage is connected to. When current flows into a capacitor, the charges get “stuck” on the plates because they can’t get past the insulating dielectric. One plate is positively charged and the other negatively The stationary charges on these plates create an electric field. When charges group together on a capacitor like this, the cap is storing electric energy just as a battery might store chemical energy.
