This question may require more information for an accurate answer. If the clouds are observed west of the city and they are moving in a westerly direction it means that the clouds are moving away. Precipitation refers to rainfall, sleet, hail or snow. Since no reference was made to the temperature, season or location of the city it could be rain or snow clouds. The clouds are moving away from the city so the possible answers could be b. or d. Furthermore, by dividing the distance by the speed one would get an answer of twenty four hours. So even if the clouds were moving towards the city it would take a day to reach and precipitation would not be likely in 24 hrs.

At takeoff, an aircraft travels at 62 m/s, so that the air speed relative to the bottom of the wing is 62 m/s. Given the sea lev
olganol [36]

Answer:

the aircraft must travel at a speed of <em>73.4 m/s</em> in order to create the ideal lift.

Explanation:

We will use Bernoulli's theorem in order to determine the pressure lift:

ΔP = 1/2 (ρ)(v₂² - v₁²)

the generated pressure lift is ΔP = 1000 N/m²

Therefore,

1000 = 1/2(ρ)(v₂² - v₁²)

v₂² - v₁² = 2000 / ρ

v₂² = (2000 N/m² / 1.29 kg/m³) + (62 m/s)²

v₂ = √[ (2000 N/m² / 1.29 kg/m³) + (62 m/s)² ]

<em>v₂ = 73.4 m/s </em>

<em></em>

Therefore, the aircraft must travel at a speed of <em>73.4 m/s</em> in order to create the ideal lift.

According to Coulomb’s Law, what happens to the force when the distance increase between 2 particles?
ohaa [14]

Answer:

The size of the force varies inversely as the square of the distance between the two charges. Therefore, if the distance between the two charges is doubled, <u>the attraction or repulsion becomes weaker</u>, decreasing to one-fourth of the original value.

Explanation:

Coulomb’s law, mathematical description of the electric force between charged objects. Formulated by the 18th-century French physicist Charles-Augustin de Coulomb, it is analogous to Isaac Newton’s law of gravity.

Both gravitational and electric forces decrease with the square of the distance between the objects, and both forces act along a line between them. In Coulomb’s law, however, the magnitude and sign of the electric force are determined by the electric charge, rather than the mass, of an object. Thus, charge determines how electromagnetism influences the motion of charged objects. Charge is a basic property of matter. Every constituent of matter has an electric charge with a value that can be positive, negative, or zero.

Coulomb's Law says that the force between 2 charges is proportional to the product of the quantities of charge on each and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. The formula for Coulomb's Law is F=k\frac{q_{1}q_{2}   }{r^{2} }.

F is the force.

k is the Coulomb's constant (8.987*10^{9} \frac{Nm^{2} }{C^{2} }).

q_{1} is the electric charge of object 1.

q_{2} is the electric charge of object 2.

r is the distance between the two charges.

Electric force is inversely proportional to (r^{2}) instead of (r). As the distance between charges increases, the electric force decreases by a factor of \frac{1}{r^{2} }.

A black, totally absorbing piece of cardboard of area a = 2.1 cm2 intercepts light with an intensity of 8.8 w/m2 from a camera s
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

The value of radiation pressure is 2.933 \times 10^{-8} Pa

Explanation:

Given:

Intensity I = 8.8 \frac{W}{m^{2} }

Area of piece A = 2.1 \times 10^{-4} m^{2}

From the formula of radiation pressure in terms of intensity,

   P = \frac{I}{c}

Where P = radiation pressure, c = speed of light

We know value of speed of light,

 c = 3 \times 10^{8} \frac{m}{s}

Put all values in above equation,

  P = \frac{8.8}{3 \times 10^{8} }

  P = 2.933 \times 10^{-8} Pa

Therefore, the value of radiation pressure is 2.933 \times 10^{-8} Pa
