Suppose you have two small pith balls that are 5.5 cm apart and have equal charges of -29 nc?
zysi [14]
The question is missing, however, I guess the problem is asking for the value of the force acting between the two balls.

The Coulomb force between the two balls is:
F= k_e \frac{ q_1 q_2}{r^2}
where k_e=8.99\cdot10^9~N m^2 C^{-2} is the Coulomb's constant, q_1=q_2=29~nC=29\cdot 10^{-9}~C is the intensity of the two charges, and r=5.5~cm=0.055~m is the distance between them.

Substituting these numbers into the equation, we get
F=2.5~10^{-3}~N

The force is repulsive, because the charges have same sign and so they repel each other.

An electric heater draws a steady 15.0A on a 120-V
morpeh [17]

Answer:

1. 1800 W

2. $ 17.3

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Current (I) = 15 A

Voltage (V) = 120 V

Time (t) = 20 h per day

Duration = 31 days

Cost = 15.5 cents per kWh

1. Determination of the power.

Current (I) = 15 A

Voltage (V) = 120 V

Power (P) =?

P = IV

P = 15 × 120

P = 1800 W

Thus, 1800 W of power is required.

2. Determination of the cost per month (31 days).

We'll begin by converting 1800 W to KW.

1000 W = 1 KW

Therefore,

1800 W = 1800 W × 1 KW / 1000 W

1800 W = 1.8 KW

Next, we shall determine the energy consumption for 31 days. This can be obtained as follow:

Power (P) = 1.8 KW

Time (t) = 2 h per day

Time (t) for 31 days = 2 × 31 = 62 h

Energy (E) =?

E = Pt

E = 1.8 × 62

E = 111.6 KWh

Finally, we shall determine the cost of consumption. This can be obtained as follow:

1 KWh = 15.5 cents

Therefore,

111.6 KWh = 111.6 KWh × 15.5 cents / 1 KWh

111.6 KWh = 1729.8 cents

Converting 1729.8 cents to dollar, we have:

100 cents = $ 1

Therefore,

1729.8 cents = 1729.8 cents × $ 1 / 100 cents

1729.8 cents = $ 17.3

Thus, it will cost $ 17.3 per month to run the electric heater.

Why might it be helpful to us to measure gravity fluctuations on Earth? What is the most important type of information it gives
Anna [14]
I think it would be helpful to measure gravity so we know how it affects animals and plants and planes and spaceships and cars. I think the most important type of information it gives us is just like making sure people are safe and that there’s nothing we are going on or that the gravity increases at a rate or if it decreases just so we know how to handle it in the future and I think that information would be useful so we don’t die.

A cylinder that is 15 cm tall is filled with water. If a hole is made in the side of the cylinder, 4.0 cm below the top level. A
olga55 [171]

Answer:

About 13 cm

Explanation:

We are given that

Length of cylinder,l=15 cm=15\times 10^{-2} m

1 m=100 cm

h=4 cm=\frac{4}{100}=0.04 m

Horizontal velocity of the existing water stream=v=\sqrt{2gh}

Where g=9.8m/s^2

Using the formula

v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 0.04}=0.885m/s

h'=l-h=15-4=11 cm=\frac{11}{100}=0.11 m

Initial velocity of water stream,u=0

t=\sqrt{\frac{2h'}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 0.11}{9.8}}=0.15 s

Distance, d=vt

Using the formula

d=0.885\times 0.15=0.133 m

d=0.133\times 100=13.3 cm\approx 13 cm
