Answer:

0.024m/s

Explanation:

Firstly, we have to convert the 3.20cm/s to m/s which is done by dividing the 3.20 by 100. the answer gives 0.032m/s. Then using the formular v=c/n where v is the apparent speed, c = speed of object and n is the refractive index of medium.we can now solve using the above formular which is 0.032m/s/1.333 = 0.024m/s

2. Two identical conducting spheres are placed with their centers 0.30 m apart. One is given a charge of 12 x 10-9 C and the oth
Maru [420]

Answer:

A. -2.16 * 10^(-5) N

B. 9 * 10^(-7) N

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Distance between their centres, r = 0.3 m

Charge in first sphere, Q1 = 12 * 10^(-9) C

Charge in second sphere, Q2 = -18 * 10^(-9) C

A. Electrostatic force exerted on one sphere by the other is:

F = (k * Q1 * Q2) / r²

F = (9 * 10^9 * 12 * 10^(-9) * -18 * 10^(-9)) / 0.3²

F = -2.16 * 10^(-5) N

B. When they are brought in contact by a wire and are then in equilibrium, it means they have the same final charge. That means if we add the charges of both spheres and divided by two, we'll have the final charge of each sphere:

Q1 + Q2 = 12 * 10^(-9) + (-18 * 10^(-9))

= - 6 * 10^(-9) C

Dividing by two, we have that each sphere has a charge of -3 * 10^(-9) C

Hence the electrostatic force between them is:

F = [9 * 10^9 * (-3 * 10^(-9)) * (-3 * 10^(-9)] / 0.3²

F = 9 * 10^(-7) N

Why is the Mid-Atlantic Ridge an ideal place for SWARM to collect electrical conductivity data?
ElenaW [278]

Answer: Mid-ocean ridges are geologically important because they occur along the kind of plate boundary where new ocean floor is created as the plates spread apart. Thus the mid-ocean ridge is also known as a "spreading center" or a "divergent plate boundary." The plates spread apart at rates of 1 cm to 20 cm per year.

A physics professor demonstrates the Doppler effect by tying a 600 Hz sound generator to a 1.0-m-long rope and whirling it aroun
nalin [4]

Answer:

Therefore the the highest frequency is 620Hz and lowest frequency is 580Hz

Explanation:

Given data

Source Frequency fs=600Hz

Length r=1.0m

RPM=100 rpm

The speed of the generator is calculated as:

v_{s}=rw\\v_{s}=r(2\pi f)

Substitute the given values

v_{s}=(1.0m)2\pi (\frac{100}{60}rev/s )\\v_{s}=10.47m/s

For approaching generator the frequency is calculated as:

f_{+}=\frac{f_{s}}{1-\frac{v_{s}}{v} }\\f_{+}=\frac{600Hz}{1-\frac{10.47m/s}{343m/s} } \\f_{+}=620Hz

On the other hand,for the receding generator,Doppler's effect is expressed as:

 f_{-}=\frac{f_{s}}{1+\frac{v_{s}}{v} }\\f_{-}=\frac{600Hz}{1+\frac{10.47m/s}{343m/s} } \\f_{-}=580Hz

Therefore the the highest frequency is 620Hz and lowest frequency is 580Hz

How much force must be applied for a 150.W motor to keep a package moving at 3.00m/s?
leva [86]

The force must be applied for motor to keep the package moving is 50 N.

<h3>What is force?</h3>

Force is the action of push or pull the object in order to make it move or stop.

Power is related to force and velocity as

P = F x v

150 W = F x 3 m/s

F  =50 N

Thus, the force must be applied for motor to keep the package moving is 50 N.
