Answer: The correct option is "Its rays point away from the charge".

Explanation:

Electric field is the surrounding of the charge in which the electric force can be experienced.

The expression of the electric force in terms of charge and the electric field is as follows;

F=qE

Here, q is the charge and E is the electric field.

The direction of the electric field of a positive charge is away from the charge.

The direction of the electric field of a negative charge is towards the charge.

Therefore, the electric field created by a positive charge describes its rays point towards the charge.

I would go with C. It's ray point away from the charge.

Answer:

Lower

gsintheta (gsinθ)

Explanation:

The sum of forces resolved parallel to the inclined plane is given by;

F - mgsinθ = 0

ma - mgsinθ = 0

ma = mgsinθ

a = gsinθ

Acceleration is proportional to angle of inclination, thus the lower the angle of the slope, lower the acceleration along the ramp.

therefore, the speed at the bottom of a slope will be lower, (velocity is directly proportional to acceleration) and, consequently, the control will be better.

The acceleration along the ramp, is gsintheta (gsinθ)

What is the magnitude of the velocity when the elastic potential energy is equal to the kinetic energy? (Assume that U=0 at equi

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

General Equation of SHM is given by

$x=A\cos \omega t$

$v=-A\omega \sin \omega t$

where x=position of particle

A=maximum Amplitude

$\omega =$ angular frequency

t=time

At any time Total Energy is the sum of kinetic Energy and Elastic potential Energy i.e. $\frac{1}{2}kA^2$

where k=spring constant

Potential Energy is given by $U=\frac{1}{2}kx^2$

also it is given that Potential Energy(U) is equal to Kinetic Energy(K)

Total Energy $=K+U$

Total $=2U=2\times \frac{1}{2}kx^2$

$\frac{1}{2}kA^2=2\times \frac{1}{2}kx^2$

$x=\pm \frac{A}{\sqrt{2}}$

at $x=\frac{A}{\sqrt{2}}$

velocity is $v=\frac{A\omega}{\sqrt{2}}$

A bicyclist of mass 112 kg rides in a circle at a speed of 8.9 m/s. If the radius of the circle is 15.5 m, what is the centripet

kogti [31]

The centripetal force, Fc, is calculated through the equation,
Fc = mv²/r
where m is the mass,v is the velocity, and r is the radius.
Substituting the known values,
Fc = (112 kg)(8.9 m/s)² / (15.5 m)
= 572.36 N
Therefore, the centripetal force of the bicyclist is approximately 572.36 N.

A ship is travelling due east at 30 km/hr and a boy runs across the deck

dsp73

Answer:

Vr = 20 [km/h]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we have to add the relative velocities. We must remember that velocity is a vector, therefore it has magnitude and direction. We will take the sea as the reference measurement level.

Let's take the direction of the ship as positive. Therefore the boy moves in the opposite direction (Negative) to the reference level (the sea).

$V_{r}=30-10\\V_{r}=20 [km/h]$
