What is the rate of acceleration due to gravity on Earth?

Physics
1 answer:
Katena32 [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Negative 9.8 meters per second squared

Explanation:

The negative is for the direction (down, towards the center of the earth). Often this can be estimated as -10 m/s^2 to make calculations easier.

The first law of thermodynamics states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed. If this is true then why are we always
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

The second law of thermodynamics states in an isolated system, the entropy (the amount of thermal energy that cannot be converted into mechanical work, also known as the amount of disorder) always increases, therefore, an isolated system always require an external input (new sources) of energy for there to be orderliness or for the available energy of the system to remain constant or increase

Rubber rods charged by rubbing with cat fur repel each other. Glass rods charged by rubbing with silk repel each other. A rubber
puteri [66]

Answer:

C. A rubber rod and a glass rod charged this way have opposite charges on them.

Explanation:

When a rubber rod is rubbed against cat fur, it acquires a negative charge, it becomes negatively charged.

When you then try to bring two rubber rod's together, they repel because like charges repel.

Meanwhile, when you rub a glass rod against silk, it loses electrons to the silk material and becomes positively charged.

When you bring two positively charged glass rod's together, they repel, because like charges repel.

However, when you bring the rubber rod and a glass rod together, the attract each other because unlike/opposite charges attract.

An isolated charged point particle produces an electric field with magnitude E at a point 2 m away. At a point 1 m from the part
guajiro [1.7K]

Explanation:

The electric field at a distance r from the charged particle is given by :

E=\dfrac{kq}{r^2}

k is electrostatic constant

if r = 2 m, electric field is given by :

E_1=\dfrac{kq}{(2)^2}\\\\=\dfrac{kq}{4}\ .....(1)

If r = 1 m, electric field is given by :

E_2=\dfrac{kq}{r_2^2}\\\\=\dfrac{kq}{1}\ ....(2)

Dividing equation (1) and (2) we get :

\dfrac{E_1}{E_2}=\dfrac{\dfrac{kq}{4}}{kq}\\\\\dfrac{E_1}{E_2}=\dfrac{1}{4}\\\\E_2=4\times E_1

So, at a point 1 m from the particle, the electric field is 4 times of the electric field at a point 2 m.
