Denser materials tend to be closer to earths center due to their mass gravity is shown by the equation mg
Which stands for mass x gravity.

In the Millikan oil drop experiment the measured charge of any single droplet was always a whole number multiple of -1.60 x 10-1
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

Number of electrons, n = 6

Explanation:

Total charge in a single droplet, q=-9.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

The measured charge of any single droplet, e=-1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

Let n is the number of excess electrons are contained within the drop. According to the quantization of charge :

q=ne

n=\dfrac{q}{e}

n=\dfrac{-9.6\times 10^{-19}}{-1.6\times 10^{-19}}

n = 6

So, there are 6 electrons contained within the drop. Hence, this is the required solution.

An athlete is working out in the weight room. He steadily holds 50 kilograms above his head for 10 seconds. Which statement is t
postnew [5]

Answer:

A. The athlete isn’t doing any work because he doesn’t move the weight.

Explanation:

We must remember the definition of work, which says that work is equal to the product of mass by the distance displaced. In this case, the athlete only does work when he lifts the weight from the ground to the point where he holds the weight suspended.

So when he's holding the weight, he doesn't do any work.

1. A kangaroo hops 84 m to the east in 7 seconds.
DENIUS [597]

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance hopped  = 84m

Displacement  = 84m due east

Time  = 7s

Unknown:

Speed of kangaroo  = ?

Velocity of kangaroo  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem,

    Speed  = \frac{distance}{time }   = \frac{84}{7}  = 12m/s

  Velocity  = \frac{displacement}{time}   = \frac{84}{7}   = 12m/s due east

Two skaters, a man and a woman, are standing on ice. Neglect any friction between the skate blades and the ice. The mass of the
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

a₁ = 0.63 m/s²  (East)

a₂ = -1.18 m/s²  (West)

Explanation:

m₁ = 95 Kg

m₂ = 51 Kg

F = 60 N

a₁ = ?

a₂ = ?

To get the acceleration (magnitude and direction) of the man we apply

∑Fx = m*a   (⇒)

F = m₁*a₁         ⇒      60 N = 95 Kg*a₁    

⇒  a₁ = (60N / 95Kg) = 0.63 m/s²  (⇒)  East

To get the acceleration (magnitude and direction) of the woman we apply

∑Fx = m*a   (⇒)

F = -m₂*a₂         ⇒      60 N = -51 Kg*a₂    

⇒  a₂ = (60N / 51Kg) = -1.18 m/s²  (West)

For every case we apply Newton’s 3 d Law

Assume that the speed of light in a vacuum has the hypothetical value of 18.0 m/s. A car is moving at a constant speed of 14.0 m
denis23 [38]

Answer:

4.245s

Explanation:

Given that,

Hypothetical value of speed of light in a vacuum is 18 m/s

Speed of the car, 14 m/s

Time given is 6.76 s, and we're asked to find the observed time, T

The relationship between the two times can be given as

T = t / √[1 - (v²/c²)]

The missing variable were looking for is t, and we can find it if we rearrange the formula and make t the subject

t = T / √[1 - (v²/c²)]

And now, we substitute the values and insert into the equation

t = 6.76 * √[1 - (14²/18²)]

t = 6.76 * √[1 - (196/324)]

t = 6.76 * √(1 - 0.605)

t = 6.76 * √0.395

t = 6.76 * 0.628

t = 4.245 s

Therefore, the time the driver measures for the trip is 4.245s
