The change in electric potential energy will be converted to kinetic energy; thus:
K.E = 5.3 x 10⁻¹⁰ - 3.1 x 10⁻¹⁰
K.E = 2.2 x 10⁻¹⁰ Joules
Option D is correct.

Two small spheres with mass 10 gm and charge q, are suspended from a point by threads of length L=0.22m. What is the charge on e

Nataliya [291]

Answer:

$q=1.95*10^{-7}C$

Explanation:

According to the free-body diagram of the system, we have:

$\sum F_y: Tcos(15^\circ)-mg=0(1)\\\sum F_x: Tsin(15^\circ)-F_e=0(2)$

So, we can solve for T from (1):

$T=\frac{mg}{cos(15^\circ)}(3)$

Replacing (3) in (2):

$(\frac{mg}{cos(15^\circ)})sin(15^\circ)=F_e$

The electric force ( $F_e$ ) is given by the Coulomb's law. Recall that the charge q is the same in both spheres:

$(\frac{mg}{cos(15^\circ)})sin(15^\circ)=\frac{kq^2}{r^2}(4)$

According to pythagoras theorem, the distance of separation (r) of the spheres are given by:

$sin(15^\circ)=\frac{\frac{r}{2}}{L}\\r=2Lsin(15^\circ)(5)$

Finally, we replace (5) in (4) and solving for q:

$mgtan(15^\circ)=\frac{kq^2}{(2Lsin(15^\circ))^2}\\q=\sqrt{\frac{mgtan(15^\circ)(2Lsin(15^\circ))^2}{k}}\\q=\sqrt{\frac{10*10^{-3}kg(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})tan(15^\circ)(2(0.22m)sin(15^\circ))^2}{8.98*10^{9}\frac{N\cdot m^2}{C^2}}}\\q=1.95*10^{-7}C$

What is the condition for an object experiencing free fall?

S_A_V [24]

Answer:

The body acts under the influence of gravity.

Explanation:

An object experiencing free fall is acting under the influence of gravitational force and the acceleration due gravity is positive for any falling object. The body is able to fall freely due to the effect of gravity on it. This gravity effect causes the body to get attracted to the earth's gravitational surface due to gravitational pull exerted on the body.

Maya made this picture to represent a chemical reaction:

Natalka [10]

The statement that best explains the type of chemical reaction represented by Maya's picture is that it is neither a synthesis reaction nor a decomposition reaction because two reactants form two products. That is option B.

<h3>What is a chemical reaction?</h3>

A chemical reaction is the combination of two elements to yield a new product through the formation of bonds.

A chemical reaction is said to be a synthesis reaction when when two different atoms or molecules interact to form a different molecule or compound.

A chemical reaction is said to be a decomposition reaction when one reactant breaks down into two or more products.

Therefore, from the picture, the chemical reaction is neither a synthesis reaction nor a decomposition reaction because two reactants form two products.

Calculate the mass (in SI units) of (a) a 160 lb human being; (b) a 1.9 lb cockatoo. Calculate the weight (in English units) of

kondaur [170]

Explanation:

1. Force applied on an object is given by :

F = W = mg

(a) A 160 lb human being, F = 160 lb

g = acceleration due to gravity, g = 32 ft/s²

$m=\dfrac{F}{g}$

$m=\dfrac{160\ lb}{32\ ft/s^2}$

m = 5 kg

(b) A 1.9 lb cockatoo, F = 1.9 lb

$m=\dfrac{F}{g}$

$m=\dfrac{1.9\ lb}{32\ ft/s^2}$

m = 0.059 kg

2. (a) A 2300 kg rhinoceros, m = 2300 kg

$W=2300\ kg\times 32\ ft/s^2=73600\ lb$

(b) A 22 g song sparrow, m = 22 g = 0.022 kg

$W=0.022\ kg\times 32\ ft/s^2=0.704\ lb$

Hence, this is the required solution.

I NEED HELP PLEASE, THANKS! :)

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

1. Largest force: C; smallest force: B; 2. ratio = 9:1

Explanation:

The formula for the force exerted between two charges is

$F=K\dfrac{ q_{1}q_{2}}{r^{2}}$

where K is the Coulomb constant.

q₁ and q₂ are also identical and constant, so Kq₁q₂ is also constant.

For simplicity, let's combine Kq₁q₂ into a single constant, k.

Then, we can write

$F=\dfrac{k}{r^{2}}$

1. Net force on each particle

Let's

Call the distance between adjacent charges d.
Remember that like charges repel and unlike charges attract.

Define forces exerted to the right as positive and those to the left as negative.

(a) Force on A

$\begin{array}{rcl}F_{A} & = & F_{B} + F_{C} + F_{D}\\& = & -\dfrac{k}{d^{2}} - \dfrac{k}{(2d)^{2}} +\dfrac{k}{(3d)^{2}}\\& = & \dfrac{k}{d^{2}}\left(-1 - \dfrac{1}{4} + \dfrac{1}{9} \right)\\\\& = & \dfrac{k}{d^{2}}\left(\dfrac{-36 - 9 + 4}{36} \right)\\\\& = & \mathbf{-\dfrac{41}{36} \dfrac{k}{d^{2}}}\\\\\end{array}$

(b) Force on B

$\begin{array}{rcl}F_{B} & = & F_{A} + F_{C} + F_{D}\\& = & \dfrac{k}{d^{2}} - \dfrac{k}{d^{2}} + \dfrac{k}{(2d)^{2}}\\& = & \dfrac{k}{d^{2}}\left(\dfrac{1}{4} \right)\\\\& = &\mathbf{\dfrac{1}{4} \dfrac{k}{d^{2}}}\\\\\end{array}$

(C) Force on C

$\begin{array}{rcl}F_{C} & = & F_{A} + F_{B} + F_{D}\\& = & \dfrac{k}{(2d)^{2}} + \dfrac{k}{d^{2}} + \dfrac{k}{d^{2}}\\& = & \dfrac{k}{d^{2}}\left( \dfrac{1}{4} +1 + 1 \right)\\\\& = & \dfrac{k}{d^{2}}\left(\dfrac{1 + 4 + 4}{4} \right)\\\\& = & \mathbf{\dfrac{9}{4} \dfrac{k}{d^{2}}}\\\\\end{array}$

(d) Force on D

$\begin{array}{rcl}F_{D} & = & F_{A} + F_{B} + F_{C}\\& = & -\dfrac{k}{(3d)^{2}} - \dfrac{k}{(2d)^{2}} - \dfrac{k}{d^{2}}\\& = & \dfrac{k}{d^{2}}\left( -\dfrac{1}{9} - \dfrac{1}{4} -1 \right)\\\\& = & \dfrac{k}{d^{2}}\left(\dfrac{-4 - 9 -36}{36} \right)\\\\& = & \mathbf{-\dfrac{49}{36} \dfrac{k}{d^{2}}}\\\\\end{array}$

(e) Relative net forces

In comparing net forces, we are interested in their magnitude, not their direction (sign), so we use their absolute values.

$F_{A} : F_{B} : F_{C} : F_{D} = \dfrac{41}{36} : \dfrac{1}{4} : \dfrac{9}{4} : \dfrac{49}{36}\ = 41 : 9 : 81 : 49\\\\\text{C experiences the largest net force.}\\\text{B experiences the smallest net force.}\\$

2. Ratio of largest force to smallest

$\dfrac{ F_{C}}{ F_{B}} = \dfrac{81}{9} = \mathbf{9:1}\\\\\text{The ratio of the largest force to the smallest is $\large \boxed{\mathbf{9:1}}$}$
