<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 man stands in a lift going downward with uniform velocity. he experiences a loss of weight at the start but not when lift is i
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

It is explained in the explanation section

Explanation:

When the lift starts going downwards, it will start accelerating downwards. After a while, it will start moving with a constant velocity.

Constant velocity means that acceleration is zero and so the man will not feel any weight loss.

Now, Once the lift achieves constant velocity the acceleration is zero hence he will not experience any weight loss.

However, when the lift is in uniform motion, the lift and the man will fall down with an acceleration(a) that is less than that due to gravity(g) . Thus, the man will feel an apparent weight F which is not equal to zero.

An 80-kgkg quarterback jumps straight up in the air right before throwing a 0.43-kgkg football horizontally at 15 m/sm/s . How f
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

V = 0.0806 m/s

Explanation:

given data

mass quarterback = 80 kg

mass football = 0.43 kg

velocity = 15 m/s

solution

we consider here momentum conservation is in horizontal direction.

so that here no initial momentum of the quarterback

so that final momentum of the system will be 0

so we can say

M(quarterback) ×  V = m(football) × v (football)   ........................1

put here value we get

80 ×  V  = 0.43  × 15

V = 0.0806 m/s

musickatia [10]

Answer:

The Ionospheric Effect

Explanation:

One of the largest errors in GPS positioning is attributable to the atmosphere. The long, relatively unhindered travel of the GPS signal through the virtual vacuum of space changes as it passes through the earth’s atmosphere. Through both refraction and diffraction, the atmosphere alters the apparent speed and, to a lesser extent, the direction of the signal. This causes an apparent delay in the signal's transit from the satellite to the receiver.

Please help me with this question, especially the angle part. I have solved the initial velocity already. I don't know what to d
Helga [31]
I think you almost got it.

At the top, the velocity only has horizontal component, so v=12 m/s is v_x, which is v*cos(theta), because v_x is constant, so the same when it was launched or now.

With the value of the initial speed (28 m/s, which is the total speed), you can set

v_x = v * cos( theta ) ---> 12 = 28*cos(theta) --> cos(theta)=12/28=3/7

or theta = 64.62 deg, it is D. Think about it. I hope you see it.
