how much force (in N) is exerted on one side of an 16.2 cm by 22.9 cm sheet of paper by the atmosphere

1 answer:

6 0

<span>The 16.2cm by 22.9cm paper has an area = 370.98 square cm = 0.037098 square meters. And the atmospheric pressure at sea level is 101,325 Newtons per square meter. So if multiply the quantities: 101,325 N/m^2 and 0.037098 m^2 we get an answer of 3758.95 N. * If we respect the fact that 22.9cm and 16.2 cm only have three significant digits then our answer would be 3760N.</span>

An object traveling at a constant speed but with a changing direction is accelerating.

prohojiy [21]

Strange as it may seem, that's true. (choice 'a'.)

"Acceleration" doesn't mean "speeding up". It means ANY change in
the speed or direction of motion. So a car with the brakes applied
and slowing down, and a point on the rim of a bicycle wheel that's
turning at a constant rate, are both accelerating.

How does increasing the distance between charged objects affect the electric force between them? the electric force increases be

konstantin123 [22]

the electric force decreases because the distance has an indirect relationship to the force

Explanation:

The electric force between two objects is given by

$F=k \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}$

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q1 and q2 are the charges of the two objects

r is the distance between the two objects

As we can see from the formula, the magnitude of the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance: so, when the distance between the object increases, the magnitude of the force decreases.
