Answer:

9.8m/s

Explanation:

Wherever you're on the earth's surface, gravitational force remains the same and it does not matter either its a rock that's being tossed or a sheet of paper, the acceleration remains 9.8m/s only. *Condition applied=air resistance neglected

Point charges q1=+2.00μC and q2=−2.00μC are placed at adjacent corners of a square for which the length of each side is 5.00 cm
mihalych1998 [28]

Point charges q1=+2.00μC and q2=−2.00μC are placed at adjacent corners of a square for which the length of each side is 5.00 cm.?

Point a is at the center of the square, and point b is at the empty corner closest to q2. Take the electric potential to be zero at a distance far from both charges.  

(a) What is the electric potential at point a due to q1 and q2?  

(b) What is the electric potential at point b?

(c) A point charge q3 = -6.00 μC moves from point a to point b. How much work is done on q3 by the electric forces exerted by q1 and q2?

Answer:

a) the potential is zero at the center .

Explanation:

a) since the two equal-magnitude and oppositely charged particles are equidistant

b)(b) Electric potential at point b, v = Σ kQ/r

r = 5cm = 0.05m

k = 8.99*10^9 N·m²/C²

Q = -2 microcoulomb

v= (8.99*10^9) * (2*10^-6) * (1/√2m - 1) / 0.0500m

v =  -105 324 V

c)workdone = charge * potential

work = -6.00µC * -105324V

work = 0.632 J

What is meant by atmosperic refraction of light?
steposvetlana [31]
<span>Atmospheric refraction is the deviation of light or other electromagnetic wave from a straight line as it passes through the atmosphere due to the variation in air density as a function of height. ... The term also applies to the refraction of sound.</span>

A string is attached to a ball that has a mass of 0.11 kg. A student pulls up on the string so that the ball accelerates upward
enot [183]

Answer:

T=+1.133N

Explanation:

Tension and weight are forces that have opposite directions

Weight is negative (downward)

W=m*g= 0.11kg*(-9.8m/s^2)

W= -1.078N

Tension is possitive (upward)

The total force will be the sum of both (the difference taking in consideration the direction)

Ft= T+W

Also the total force is the product of the mass due to acceleration:

Ft=m*a

Ft= +0.11kg*0.5m/s^2

Ft=+0.055N (upward)

Tension will be the difference between Ft and W:

T= Ft-W

T=+0.055N-(-1.078N)

T=+1.133N
