Denise is conducting a physics experiment to measure the acceleration of a falling object when it slows down and comes to a stop

. She drops a wooden block with a mass of 0.5 kilograms on a sensor on the floor. The sensor measures the force of the impact as 4.9 newtons. What’s the acceleration of the wooden block when it hits the sensor? Use F = ma.
A.
2.45 m/s2
B.
4.4 m/s2

Answer:

D!

Explanation:

Using the formula F = ma, you plug in 4.9 for F (force), and 0.5 for m (mass), then solve for a (acceleration).

maxonik [38]

Answer:

A. There is a localization of positive charge near the door handle.

Explanation:

  • When on a cold morning a person wearing cotton/ polyester cloth walking on the carpet moves toward his car then due to friction between the feet and the carpet there are transfer of electrons from the carpet to our feet, and since our body is a good conductor of electricity the charges spread throughout on the surface of or body.
  • When the person brings his hands close to the neutral conducting door of the car it gets induced with equal intensity of opposite charge to our hands thus having a concentration of positive charges near to the hand on the car's door is developed as a result of polarization within the conductor.

For the answer to the question above,
we can get the number of fringes by dividing (delta t) by the period of the light (Which is λ/c). 

fringe = (delta t) / (λ/c) 

We can find (delta t) with the equation: 

delta t = [v^2(L1+L2)]/c^3 

Derivation of this formula can be found in your physics text book. From here we find (delta t): 

600,000^2 x (11+11) / [(3x10^8)^3] = 2.93x10^-13 

2.93x10^-13/ (589x10^-9 / 3x10^8) = 149 fringes 

This answer is correct but may seem large. That is because of your point of reference with the ether which is usually at rest with respect to the sun, making v = 3km/s.
