C. easier to build than a refracting telescope

Big mirrors used in reflecting telescopes are easier and cheaper to make than big lenses which would cost more because of the quality of glass required to make refracting telescopes

An electron (q=-1.602×10-19C) is placed .03m away from spherical object with a net charge of -7.2 C.

vovangra [49]

Answer:

Explanation:

electric field at the location of electron

= 9 x 10⁹ x 7.2 / .03²

= 72 x 10¹² N/C

force on electron = electric field x charge on electron

= 72 x 10¹² x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹

= 115.2 x 10⁻⁷ N .

C )

work done = charge on electron x potential difference at two points

potential at .03 m

= 9 x 10⁹ x 7.2 / .03

= 2.16 x 10¹² V

potential at .001 m

= 9 x 10⁹ x 7.2 / .001

= 64.8 x 10¹² V

potential difference = (64.8 - 2.16 )x 10¹² V

= 62.64 x 10¹² V .

work done = 62.64 x 10¹² x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹

= 100.224 x 10⁻⁷ J .

D )

There will be no change in the magnitude of force on positron except that the direction of force will be reversed . In case of electron , there will be repulsion and in case of positron , there will be attraction .

Work done in case of electron will be positive and work done in case of positron will be negative .

electric field due to charge will be same in both the cases .

Narysuj wykres zależności v(t) jeśli w chwili początkowej t=0 V=10m/s w każdej sekundzie szybkość zmniejsza się o 1m/s . Po jaki

irina1246 [14]

1) See graph in attachment

2) 10 s

3) 50 m

Explanation:

In this problem, we have an object initially moving with a velocity of

v = 10 m/s

when the time is

t = 0 s

Then, we are told that the speed of the object is decreasing by 1 m/s every second. This means that on a velocity-time graph, the motion will be represented by a straight line, starting from v = 10 when t = 0, and decreasing by 1 m/s every second.

The result can be found in the graph in attachment.

Moreover, we can also infer that the motion of the object is accelerated (because velocity is changing), and that the acceleration is constant and it is equal to

$a=1 m/s^2$

which is equivalent to the gradient of the line in the velocity-time graph.

In this part, we want to find after what time the body will stop its motion.

To do that, we can use the following suvat equation:

$v=u+at$

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

In this problem:

u = 10 m/s is the initial velocity of the body

$a=-1 m/s^2$ is the acceleration

v = 0 m/s, because we want to find the time T at which the body will stop

Re-arranging the equation, we find:

$T=-\frac{u}{a}=-\frac{10}{-1}=10 s$

In order to find the total distance covered by the body during its accelerated motion, we have to use another suvat equation:

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

where

s is the distance covered

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

a is the acceleration

In this problem:

u = 10 m/s is the initial velocity

$a=-1 m/s^2$ is the acceleration

t = 10 s is the time it takes for the body to stop (found in part 2)

Solving for s, we find the distance covered:

$s=(10)(10)+\frac{1}{2}(-1)(10)^2=50 m$

Why can you see your own reflected image in a mirror but not on a dry, painted wall?

kaheart [24]

A wall uses diffuse reflection while a mirror uses specular reflection. For example, when parallel light rays enter a mirror, they remain parallel when exiting the mirror, allowing you to see a reflection of the light rays. On the contrary, when incident light rays enter a wall which is painted, the rays scatter, not allowing you to see anything but a painted wall.

What determines how the plates interact at their boundaries

swat32

Answer:

Tectonic plate interactions are of three different basic types: Divergent boundaries are areas where plates move away from each other, forming either mid-oceanic ridges or rift valleys. These are also known as constructive boundaries. Convergent boundaries are areas where plates move toward each other and collide.

Explanation:

Meaning the answer to your question is depending on what type of tectonic plate interaction is occurring will depend on how the plates interact.
