A particle has a charge of -4.25 nC.

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

-611.32 N/C

0.43723 m

Explanation:

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

q = Charge = -4.25 nC

r = Distance from particle = 0.25 m

Electric field is given by

$E=\dfrac{kq}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{8.99\times 10^9\times -4.25\times 10^{-9}}{0.25^2}\\\Rightarrow E=-611.32\ N/C$

The magnitude is 611.32 N/C

The electric field will point straight down as the sign is negative towards the particle.

$E=\dfrac{kq}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow r=\sqrt{\dfrac{kq}{E}}\\\Rightarrow r=\sqrt{\dfrac{8.99\times 10^9\times 4.25\times 10^{-9}}{13}}\\\Rightarrow r=1.71436\ m$

The distance from the electric field is 1.71436 m

A freight car with a mass of 10 metric tons is rolling at 108 km/h along a level track when it collides with another freight car

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

20 metric tons

Explanation:

Using the Principle of Conservation of Linear Momentum which states that the total momentum of a system is constant in any direction in which no external force acts.

momentum before collision= momentum after collision

mathematically expressed as

m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1+m2v2 =0

where:

m1= mass of rolling freight car = 10 metric tons = 10Mg

1 ton = 1000kg= 1Mg

u1 =initial velocity of freight car = 108km/h,

m2 = mass of stationary freight car = ?, this the unknown we are finding

u2 = initial velocity of

m2 = 0, because it is at rest,

v1= final velocity of m1,

v2= final velocity of m2

since they move together in the same direction they share a common final velocity as such

v1=v2= 36km/h

substituting valves in expression give

m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2= 0

10Mgx 108km/hr + m2 x 0 = 10Mg x 36km/h + m2x36km/h

1080( Mg x km/hr) + 0 = 360 (Mg x Km/h) + 36m2 (km/h)

1080 (Mgx km/hr) - 360(Mg x km/h) = 36m2 (km/h)

720(Mg x km/h) = 36m2 (km/h)

divide both side by 36 (km/h) gives

m2 = 20Mg =20 metric tons

During the class prize-giving ceremony, Anand clapped his hands hard while Kumar clapped his hands softly. Everybody could hear

algol13

Answer:

C - higher volume

Explanation:

The pitch or frequency of sound that an object can produce depends upon its size and configuration . The shape of hand of all are same so the frequency of sound produced by hands of all will be almost same . Hence frequency of sound produced by the hands of Anand and Kumar would have been almost the same .

But the intensity of sound produced by them would have been different . Intensity represents energy a sound carries . Hard hitting clap will produce sound of higher intensity . Intensity of sound is also called high volume sound . So Kumar's clap will carry greater energy and hence greater volume of sound .
