The continuous submarine mountain range which winds through all the oceans is called the mid-ocean <u>ridge.
</u>It is a form of a mountain which is found underwater, and it appeared there due to the movements of tectonic plates. It is responsible for the creation of new seafloor, meaning that the ground underwater changes constantly with the formation of these ridges. <u>

The charges and coordinates of two charged particles held fixed in the xy plane are: q1 = +3.3 µc, x1 = 3.5 cm, y1 = 0.50 cm, an
Readme [11.4K]
1) First of all, we need to find the distance between the two charges. Their distance on the xy plane is
d= \sqrt{(x_1-x_2)^2+(y_1-y_2)^2}
substituting the coordinates of the two charges, we get
d= \sqrt{(3.5+2)^2+(0.5-1.5)^2}=5.6~cm=0.056~m

2) Then, we can calculate the electrostatic force between the two charges q_1 and q_2, which is given by
F=k_e  \frac{q_1 q_2}{d^2}
where k_e=8.99\cdot10^{9} Nm^2C^{-2} is the Coulomb's constant.
Substituting numbers, we get 
F=8.99\cdot10^{9} Nm^2C^{-2}  \frac{(3.3\cdot10^{-6}~C) (-4\cdot10^{-6}~C)}{(0.056~m)^2} =-37.8~N
and the negative sign means the force between the two charges is attractive, because the two charges have opposite sign.

A 45.0-kg girl is standing on a 168-kg plank. The plank, originally at rest, is free to slide on a frozen lake, which is a flat,
muminat

Answer:

The speed of the plank relative to the ice is:

v_{p}=-0.33\: m/s

Explanation:

Here we can use momentum conservation. Do not forget it is relative to the ice.

m_{g}v_{g}+m_{p}v_{p}=0 (1)

Where:

  • m(g) is the mass of the girl
  • m(p) is the mass of the plank
  • v(g) is the speed of the girl
  • v(p) is the speed of the plank

Now, as we have relative velocities, we have:

v_{g/b}=v_{g}-v_{p}=1.55 \: m/s (2)

v(g/b) is the speed of the girl relative to the plank

Solving the system of equations (1) and (2)

45v_{g}+168v_{p}=0

v_{g}-v_{p}=1.55

v_{p}=-0.33\: m/s

I hope it helps you!

What is a wavelength of sound wave moving at 340m/s with frequency of 256hz
zimovet [89]
V = 340 m/s
f = 256 Hz
lambda (wavelength)

v = f*lambda
340 = 256 * lambda
340/256 = lambda
lambda = 1.328 m

The particles in the atom that account for most of the mass of the atom are protons and
valkas [14]

Answer:

Neutrons

Explanation:

There are three particles that make up an atom, proton, neutron and electron. The mass of protons and neutrons is considered to be equal though in reality neutrons are heavier than protons; the mass of electrons is very less and ignored in the calculation of atomic mass.

A girl on a spinning amusements park is 12m from the center of the ride and has a centripetal acceleration of 17 m/s^2. What is
Tanya [424]

Answer: 14.28 m/s

Explanation:

Assuming the girl is spinning with <u>uniform circular motion</u>, her centripetal acceleration a_{c} is given by the following equation:  

a_{c}=\frac{V^{2}}{r} (1)

Where:  

a_{c}=17 m/s^{2} is the <u>centripetal acceleration</u>

V is the<u> tangential speed</u>

r=12 m is the <u>radius</u> of the circle

Isolating V from (1):

V=\sqrt{a_{c}r} (2)

V=\sqrt{(17 m/s^{2})(12 m)}

<u />

Finally:

V=14.28 m/s This is the girl's tangential speed
