Answer:

The drag force is increase by 2.9

Explanation:

The drag force on the car is:

$F_{drag} =\frac{1}{2} pCAv^{2}$

Where p is the density, A is the area of the car facing the air, C is the drag coefficient and v is the velocity. If k=(pCA)/2, then we have:

Fdrag=kv^2

For the speed 65 km/h:

Fdrag1=k(65^2)

For the speed 110 km/h

Fdrag2=k(110^2)

The ratio is:

Ratio=Fdrag2/Fdrag1=(k*65^2)/(k*110^2)=2.9

If the equipotential surfaces due to some charge distribution are vertical planes, what can you say about the electric field dir

Answer:

The correct option is

(e)either (c) or (d) could be correct.

Explanation:

The electric field of a charge radiates out in all directions and the intensity of the electric field strength given by E = F/q₀, diminishes as the lines of force moves further away from the source. The direction of F and E is in the line of potential motion of the source charge in the field.

Equipotential surfaces are locations in the radiated electric that have the same field strength or electric potential. The work done in moving within an equipotential surface is zero and as such since

Work = Force × distance = 0 where distance ≠ 0.

The force acting between two points on an equipotential surface is also zero or the component of the force within an equipotential surface is zero and since there is a force in the electric field, it is acting at right angles to the equipotential surface which could be horizontally to the left or right directions where the equipotential surfaces due to the charge distribution are in the vertical plane.

Therefore it is either horizontally to the left, or horizontally to the right.

Newton’s second law states that the acceleration a of an object is proportional to the force F acting on it is inversely proport

netineya [11]

Answer:

$[F]=[MLT^{-2}]$

Explanation:

Newton’s second law states that the acceleration a of an object is proportional to the force F acting on it is inversely proportional to its mass m. The mathematical expression for the second law of motion is given by :

F = m × a

F is the applied force

m is the mass of the object

a is the acceleration due to gravity

We need to find the dimensions of force. The dimension of force m and a are as follows :

$[m]=[M]$
