Answer: 0.123 N/C

Explanation: In order to solve this question we have to use the electric Force on a particle produced by an electric field which is given by:

F=q*E

so E=F/q= -2,58* 10^-6/-2.1*10^-5= 0.123 N/C

A newly discovered planet has a mean radius of 7380 km. A vehicle on the planet\'s surface is moving in the same direction as th

Butoxors [25]

Answer:

292796435 seconds ≈ 300 million seconds

Explanation:

First of all, the speed of the car is 121km/h = 33.6111 m/s

The radius of the planet is given to be 7380 km = 7380000 m

From the relationship between linear velocity and angular velocity i.e., v=rw, the angular velocity of the car will be w=v/r = 33.6111/7380000 = 0.000000455 rad/s = 4.55 x 10⁻⁶ rad/sec

If the angular velocity of the vehicle about the planet's center is 9.78 times as large as the angular velocity of the planet then we have

w(vehicle) = 9.78 x w(planet)

w(planet) = w(vehicle)/9.78 = 4.55 x 10⁻⁶ / 9.78 = 4.66 x 10⁻⁷ rad/sec

To find the period of the planet's rotation; we use the equation

w(planet) = 2π÷T

Where w(planet) is the angular velocity of the planet and T is the period

From the equation T = 2π÷w = 2×(22/7) ÷ 4.66 x 10⁻⁷ = 292796435 seconds

Therefore the period of the planet's motion is 292796435 seconds which is approximately 300, 000, 000 (300 million) seconds

True or False: Inertia is the property that every material object has that causes objects to resist changes in its state of moti

goldfiish [28.3K]

That is True because if it resists it means to not do it and if it is motion, that means that it is resisting movement and that is what inertia is.

The scientific definition for inertia is: "a tendency to do nothing or to remain unchanged"
Glad to help. :)

An object of mass 6 kg. is resting on a horizontal surface. A horizontal force

son4ous [18]

Answer:

a) The work done by the applied force is 1500 joules.

b) The kinetic energy of the block after 10 seconds is 1200 joules.

c) The magnitude of the force of friction is 3 newtons and its direction is against motion.

d) 300 joules of energy are lost during motion.

Explanation:

a) Since the object has a constant mass, on which a constant horizontal force is exerted. The work done by the force ( $W$ ), measured in joules, is defined by the following expression:

$W = F\cdot \Delta x$ (1)

Where:

$F$ - Force, measured in newtons.

$\Delta x$ - Distance, measured in meters.

If we know that $F = 15\,N$ and $\Delta x = 100\,m$ , then the work done by the force exerted on the object is:

$W = (15\,N)\cdot (100\,m)$

$W = 1500\,J$

The work done by the applied force is 1500 joules.

b) At first we need to calculate the net acceleration of the object ( $a$ ), measured in meters per square second. By assuming a constant acceleration, we use the following kinematic formula:

$\Delta x = v_{o}\cdot t +\frac{1}{2}\cdot a\cdot t^{2}$ (2)

Where $v_{o}$ is the initial velocity of the object, measured in meters per second.

We clear the acceleration within the equation above:

$\frac{1}{2}\cdot a \cdot t^{2} = \Delta x-v_{o}\cdot t$

$a = \frac{2\cdot (\Delta x - v_{o}\cdot t)}{t^{2}}$

If we know that $\Delta x = 100\,m$ , $v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}$ and $t = 10\,s$ , then the net acceleration experimented by the object is:

$a = \frac{2\cdot \left[100\,m-\left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\cdot (10\,s)\right]}{(10\,s)^{2}}$

$a = 2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$

By the 2nd Newton's Law, we construct the following equation of equilibrium under the consideration of a friction force acting against the motion of the object:

$\Sigma F = F - f = m\cdot a$ (3)

Where:

$F$ - External force exerted on the object, measured in newtons.

$f$ - Kinetic friction force, measured in newtons.

If we know that $F = 15\,N$ , $m = 6\,kg$ and $a = 2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ , the kinetic friction force is:

$f = F-m\cdot a$

$f = 15\,N-(6\,kg)\cdot \left(2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)$

$f = 3\,N$

The work done by friction ( $W'$ ), measured in joules, is:

$W' = f\cdot \Delta x$ (4)

$W' = (3\,N) \cdot (100\,m)$

$W' = 300\,J$

And the net work experimented by the object is:

$\Delta W = 1500\,J - 300\,J$

$\Delta W = 1200\,J$

By the Work-Energy Theorem we understand that change in translational kinetic energy ( $\Delta K$ ), measured in joules, is equal to the change in net work. That is:

$\Delta K = \Delta W$ (5)

If we know that $\Delta W = 1200\,J$ , then the change in translational kinetic energy is:

$\Delta K = 1200\,J$

The kinetic energy of the block after 10 seconds is 1200 joules.

c) The magnitude of the force of friction is 3 newtons and its direction is against motion.

d) The energy lost by the object is equal to the work done by the force of friction. Therefore, 300 joules of energy are lost during motion.

A father racing his son has 1/2 the kinetic energy of the son, who has 1/3 the mass of the father. The father speeds up by 1.4 m

BaLLatris [955]

Answer: a) 0.78 m/s b) 1.57 m/s

Explanation:

M = father's mass

 m = son's mass = M/3

 V = father's initial speed

 v = son's initial speed  (1/2)MV^2 = (1/2)*(1/2)*m v^2

 M*V^2 = (1/2)(M/3)v^2

 V^2/v^2 = 1/4

 V = v/2  Second equation:

 (1/2)M*(V + 1.4)^2 = (1/2)m*v^2

 = (1/2)*(M/3)*(3V)^2

 cancel out the M's and (1/2)'s

 (V + 1.4)^2 = 3V^2

 V^2 + 2.8V + 1.96 = 3V^2

 V^2 -1.4V -0.98 = 0

V^2 = 0.98/0.4 = 2.45

V = 1.57
