A plate carries a charge of 3.8 UC, while a rod carries a charge of 1.9 C. How many electrons must be transferred from the plate

to the rod, so that both objects have the same charge?

Answer:

N_{electrons}=Q_{transfered}/q_{electron}=5.94*10^{18}electrons

Explanation:

The total charge is distributed over the two objects:

Q_{total}/2=(3.8*10^{-6}C+1.9C)/2=0.9500019C\\

The plate and the rod must have Q_{total}/2\\. So the charge transferred from the plate to the rod is:

Q_{transfered}=3.8*10^{-6}C-Q_{total}/2=3.8*10^{-6}C-0.9500019C=-0.9499981C\\

Number of electrons:

N_{electrons}=Q_{transfered}/q_{electron}=-0.9499981C/(-1.6*10^{-19}C)=5.94*10^{18}electrons

Momentum is a measure of the<br> of an object.<br> Which term accurately completes the sentence?
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

Momentum is define as the product of the mass and velocity of a body. It is measured in Kgm/s.

Explanation:

Momentum is the product of mass and velocity of an object. When an object or a body of mass 'm' is moving with velocity 'v', then its momentum can be determined as;

momentum (P) = mass × velocity

i.e            P = m × v

                  = mv

It is measured in Kgm/s.

The change in momentum of a body is referred to as its impulse (Ft).

ΔP = m(v - u) = Ft

Where: P is the momentum of the object, m is its mass, v is its final velocity, u is the initial velocity, F is the force and t is the time in which the force acts.

If a car used 260.000 W of power to complete a race in 15 s. how much work did the car do?
marta [7]

Work done by the car is 3900 J

Explanation:

  • Power and work are related by the equation, Power = Work Done/Time
  • Power is the rate at which work is done.
  • Here, the car uses power of 260 W and time taken is 15 s.

Work Done = Power × Time

                   = 260 × 15 = 3900 J

What are scientists who study space called?
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

Astronomer

Explanation:

A scientist who studies the objects in the sky, including planets, galaxies, black holes, and stars, is called an astronomer. These days, the terms astronomer and astrophysicist are used interchangeably, to talk about any physicist who specializes in celestial bodies and the forces that affect them.

2. a) A disc rotates about its axis at speed 25 revolutions per minute and takes 15 s to stop. Calculate the
ASHA 777 [7]

The statement shows a case of rotational motion, in which the disc <em>decelerates</em> at <em>constant</em> rate.

i) The angular acceleration of the disc (\alpha), in revolutions per square second, is found by the following kinematic formula:

\alpha = \frac{\omega_{f}-\omega_{o}}{t} (1)

Where:

  • \omega_{o} - Initial angular speed, in revolutions per second.
  • \omega_{f} - Final angular speed, in revolutions per second.
  • t - Time, in seconds.

If we know that \omega_{o} = \frac{5}{12}\,\frac{rev}{s}, \omega_{f} = 0\,\frac{rev}{s} y t = 15\,s, then the angular acceleration of the disc is:

\alpha = \frac{0\,\frac{rev}{s}-\frac{5}{12}\,\frac{rev}{s}}{15\,s}

\alpha = -\frac{1}{36}\,\frac{rev}{s^{2}}

The angular acceleration of the disc is \frac{1}{36} radians per square second.

ii) The number of rotations that the disk makes before it stops (\Delta \theta), in revolutions, is determined by the following formula:

\Delta \theta  = \frac{\omega_{f}^{2}-\omega_{o}^{2}}{2\cdot \alpha} (2)

If we know that \omega_{o} = \frac{5}{12}\,\frac{rev}{s}, \omega_{f} = 0\,\frac{rev}{s} y \alpha = -\frac{1}{36}\,\frac{rev}{s^{2}}, then the number of rotations done by the disc is:

\Delta \theta = 3.125\,rev

The disc makes 3.125 revolutions before it stops.

A frog leaps up from the ground and lands on a step 0.1 m above the ground 2 s later. We want to find the
mash [69]

Answer:

\Delta x = v_0 t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we can use the following suvat equation:

\Delta x = v_0 t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

where

\Delta x is the vertical displacement of the frog

v_0 is the initial vertical velocity

t is the time

a is the acceleration

We have chosen this formula because apart from v_0, all the other quantities are known. In fact:

\Delta x =0.1 m is the vertical displacement

t = 2 s is the total time of flight

a=g=-9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity (negative because it is downward)

Therefore, solving for v_0, we find the initial velocity of the frog:

v_0 = \frac{\Delta x-\frac{1}{2}at^2}{t}=\frac{0.1-\frac{1}{2}(-9.8)(2)^2}{2}=9.85 m/s
