<h2>The magnitude of the force that acts on a charge of -7.9C at this spot is 2.21 x 10⁶ N.</h2>

Explanation:

Electric field is the ratio of force and charge.

Electric field, E = 280000 N/C

Charge, q = -7.9 C

We have

                 E=\frac{F}{q}\\\\280000=\frac{F}{7.9}\\\\F=280000\times 7.9\\\\F=2.21\times 10^6N

The magnitude of the force that acts on a charge of -7.9C at this spot is 2.21 x 10⁶ N.

A student uses 60 Newtons of force to climb 18 meters in 6 seconds. Calculate her Power.
puteri [66]

Answer:

15

Explanation:

P=W/T

T=6sec

W=?

F=60N

S=18m

W=F X S. .s indicate displacement

W=60x18

W=108

So p=108 j/6sec

P=15watt

A person can jump 1.5m on the earth. How high could the person jump on a planet having the twice the mass of the earth and twice
MrMuchimi
F=mg=Gm1m2/r^2
g=Gm2/r^2
g=2Gm2/(2r)^2=2Gm2/4r^2=Gm2/2r^2
So since there is half times the gravity on this unknown planet that has twice earth's mass and twice it's radius, then the person can jump twice as high. 1.5*2= 3m high

Nature selects organisms with specific ______to survive and reproduce
Effectus [21]

Answer:

Nature selects organisms with specific heritable traits to survive and reproduce

Explanation:

The Evolution Theory by natural selection dictates that organisms with specific inherited characteristics have better survival chances in the new environment.

Inheriting positive traits such as resistance to a certain disease will improve the survival chances of the organism to enable it reproduce and pass that gene to the next generation.

you decide to work part time at a local supermarket. The job pays eight dollars and 60 per hour and you work 20 hours per week.
aleksley [76]

Answer:

I guess that we want to find how much money you get each week.

We know that the job pays $8.60 per hour.

We know that you work 20 hours per week.

Then the gross pay (the total money that you earn) in a week is 20 times $8.60, or:

20*$8.60 = $172.

Now we know that your employer witholds:

10% + 7.65% + 5% = 22.65%

Then your employer withholds 22.65% of your gross pay.

if the 100% of your gross pay is $172

Then the 22.65% will be:

(22.65%/100%)*$172 = 0.2265*$172 = $38.96

This means that your employer withholds $38.96 of your weekly gross pay.

Then each week you get:

$172 - $38.96 = $133.04

A 4.67-g bullet is moving horizontally with a velocity of +357 m/s, where the sign + indicates that it is moving to the right (s
Leni [432]

Answer:

(a)0.531m/s

(b)0.00169

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of bullet, m=4.67 g=4.67\times 10^{-3} kg

1 kg =1000 g

Speed of bullet, v=357m/s

Mass of block 1,m_1=1177g=1.177kg

Mass of block 2,m_2=1626 g=1.626 kg

Velocity of block 1,v_1=0.681m/s

(a)

Let velocity of the second block  after the bullet imbeds itself=v2

Using conservation of momentum

Initial momentum=Final momentum

mv=m_1v_1+(m+m_2)v_2

4.67\times 10^{-3}\times 357+1.177(0)+1.626(0)=1.177\times 0.681+(4.67\times 10^{-3}+1.626)v_2

1.66719=0.801537+1.63067v_2

1.66719-0.801537=1.63067v_2

0.865653=1.63067v_2

v_2=\frac{0.865653}{1.63067}

v_2=0.531m/s

Hence, the  velocity of the second block after the bullet imbeds itself=0.531m/s

(b)Initial kinetic energy before collision

K_i=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

k_i=\frac{1}{2}(4.67\times 10^{-3}\times (357)^2)

k_i=297.59 J

Final kinetic energy after collision

K_f=\frac{1}{2}m_1v^2_1+\frac{1}{2}(m+m_2)v^2_2

K_f=\frac{1}{2}(1.177)(0.681)^2+\frac{1}{2}(4.67\times 10^{-3}+1.626)(0.531)^2

K_f=0.5028 J

Now, he ratio of the total kinetic energy after the collision to that before the collision

=\frac{k_f}{k_i}=\frac{0.5028}{297.59}

=0.00169
