A car traveling at 38 m/s starts to decelerate steadily. It comes to a complete stop in 10 seconds. What is its acceleration?

a=v/t

a=38/10

a=-3.8 m/s^2

You put the negative in front of 3.8 because it decelerated.

Hope it helps and is correct :)

A parallel-plate capacitor is constructed from two 6.0 cm × 6.0 cm electrodes spaced 1.5 mmapart. The capacitor plates are charg

A) 2.4\cdot 10^{-6} J

The energy stored in a capacitor is given by:

E=\frac{1}{2}\frac{Q^2}{C}

where

Q is the charge stored

C is the capacitance

The capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor is

C=\frac{\epsilon_0 A}{d}

where

\epsilon_0 = 8.85\cdot 10^{-12} F/m is the vacuum permittivity

A=6.0 cm \cdot 6.0 cm=36.0 cm^2=36\cdot 10^{-4} m^2 is the area of each plate

d=1.5 mm=0.0015 m is the distance between the plates

Substituting,

C=\frac{(8.85\cdot 10^{-12} F/m)(36\cdot 10^{-4} m^2)}{0.0015 m}=2.1\cdot 10^{-11} F

The charge stored on the capacitor is

Q=10 nC=10\cdot 10^{-9}C

So, the energy stored is

E=\frac{1}{2}\frac{(10\cdot 10^{-9}C)^2}{2.1\cdot 10^{-11} F}=2.4\cdot 10^{-6}J

B) 2.6\cdot 10^{-6}J

This time, the separation between the plates is

d = 1.7 mm = 0.0017 m

So, the new capacitance is

C=\frac{(8.85\cdot 10^{-12} F/m)(36\cdot 10^{-4} m^2)}{0.0017 m}=1.9\cdot 10^{-11} F

And so, the new energy stored is

E=\frac{1}{2}\frac{(10\cdot 10^{-9}C)^2}{1.9\cdot 10^{-11} F}=2.6\cdot 10^{-6}J

C)

Energy must be conserved, so the difference between the initial energy of the capacitor and its final energy is just equal to the work done to increase the separation between the two plates from 1.5 mm to 1.7 mm (in fact, the two plates of the capacitor attract each other since they have opposite charge, so work must be done in order to increase their separation)

A ball is rolling horizontally at 3.00 meters per second as it leaves the edge of a tabletop 0.750 meter above the floor. The ba
NikAS [45]

Answer: 9.81m/s^2

Explanation: since it’s free fall and friction is neglected, the magnitude of the ball’s acceleration will be equal to the general acceleration due to gravity which is 9.81m/s^2

Compare the gravitational force the sun exerts on Earth to the gravitational force Earth exerts on the sun.
podryga [215]

Answer:

as

  • Mass of sun > Mass of earth

Therefore, the sun will exert more gravitational force on earth.

Explanation:

While comparing the gravitational force exerted by two objects, we need to observe which object has a greater mass.

  • The object with the greater mass exerts a more gravitational force on the other object.

We know that mass of the sun is about 1.99 x 10³⁰ kg, and the earth's mass is only 6.0 x 10²⁴.

as

  • Mass of sun > Mass of earth

Therefore, the sun will exert more gravitational force on earth.
