A small metal sphere has a mass of 0.11 g and a charge of -21.0 nC . It is 10 cm directly above an identical sphere with the sam

e charge. This lower sphere is fixed and cannot move.
Part A: What is the magnitude of the force between the spheres?
Part: B: If the upper sphere is released, it will begin to fall. What is the magnitude of its initial acceleration?

Answer:

A. the magnitude of the force between the spheres is 3.97 x 10⁻⁴ N

B. the magnitude of its initial acceleration is 5.83 m/s²

Explanation:

given information:

metal sphere's mass, m = 0.1 g = 1 x 10⁻⁴ kg

charge, q = -21 nC = -2.1 x 10⁻⁸

r = 10 cm = 0.1 m

What is the magnitude of the force between the spheres?

F₁₂ = k q₁q₂/r²

     = ( 9 x 10⁹) (-2.1 x 10⁻⁸)²/(0.1)²

     = 3.97 x 10⁻⁴ N

If the upper sphere is released, it will begin to fall. What is the magnitude of its initial acceleration?

mg - F₁₂ = ma

a = g - (F₁₂/m)

   = 9.8 - (3.97 x 10⁻⁴/1 x 10⁻⁴)

   = 5.83 m/s²

adell [148]

Hi!


The answers would be <u>chunking</u> & <u>short-term</u>


1. <u>Chunking </u>involves organizing and breaking down information into easier groups to expand capacity.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Chunking is a mental process that is observed to increase short-term memory by taking the information and categorizing it into small groups. For instance, a longer number taken as a single unit is harder to recall then when it is divided into smaller units. 235469350 is harder to instantly recall as compared to when it is chunked into 3 groups: 235 469 350.

This allows more information to be stored in, thereby increasing the capacity of the mind to store information.


2. Rehearsal is the verbal repetition of information. These techniques are especially important for the improvement of <u>short-term</u> memory.

<h3>Explanation: </h3>

Short-term memory is lost after a couple of seconds or minutes, for instance even if you chunk the information, you might not recall it after 30 seconds. Rehearsing or repetition of information, either loudly or mentally, extends the time a particular information is retained.

So you depending on the number of times you repeat the number 235 469 350, the more your short term memory improves .


Hope this helps!

A football player with a mass of 85 kg wears a uniform and helmet that have a mass of 4.5 kg. The football player moves at 2.1 m
DochEvi [55]
The answer would be 187.95 kg.m/s.

To get the momentum, all you have to do is multiply the mass of the moving object by the velocity. 

p = mv

Where:
P = momentum
m = mass
v = velocity

Not the question is asking what is the total momentum of the football player and uniform. So we need to first get the combined mass of the football player and the uniform. 

Mass of football player = 85.0 kg
Mass of the uniform     = <u>  4.5 kg</u>
TOTAL MASS                  89.5 kg

So now we have the mass. So let us get the momentum of the combined masses. 

p = mv
   = (89.5kg)(2.1m/s)
   = 187.95 kg.m/s

notsponge [240]

Answer:

Fossil fuels come from the ground and are millions of years old

Explanation:

Fossil fuels come from the ground. i can infer and tell because most fossils are in the ground and also fossils are millions of years old. Fossil fuels are hydrocarbons, primarily coal, fuel oil or natural gas, and is from the remains of dead plants and animals. In  dialogue, the term fossil fuel also includes hydrocarbon-containing natural resources that are not derived from animal or plant sources.
