Because there is no horizontal force on the object, and we all know what happens to velocity in a direction where there is no force.

In the figure, if Q = 52 µC q =10 µC and d = 55 cm, what is the magnitude of the electrostatic force on q?​
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

F = 15.47 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Q = 52 µC

q = 10 µC

d = 55 cm = 0.55 m

We need to find the magnitude of the electrostatic force on q. The formula for the electrostatic force is given by :

F=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{d^2}\\\\F=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{52\times 10^{-6}\times 10\times 10^{-6}}{(0.55)^2}\\\\F=15.47\ N

So, the magnitude of the electrostatic force is 15.47 N.

Give an example of a substance with an amorphous structure.
Rashid [163]

Answer:

Tempered glass

Explanation:

When warmed, an amorphous substance has a non-crystalline architecture that differentiates from its isochemical liquid, but this does not go through structural breakdown or the glass transition.

A box of mass 50 kg is pushed hard enough to set it in motion across a flat surface. Then a 99-N pushing force is needed to keep
salantis [7]
The box is kept in motion at constant velocity by a force of F=99 N. Constant velocity means there is no acceleration, so the resultant of the forces acting on the box is zero. Apart from the force F pushing the box, there is only another force acting on it in the horizontal direction: the frictional force F_f which acts in the opposite direction of the motion, so in the opposite direction of F.
Therefore, since the resultant of the two forces must be zero,
F-F_f=0
so
F=F_f

The frictional force can be rewritten as
F_f = \mu m g
where m=50 kg, g=9.81 m/s^2. Re-arranging, we can solve this equation to find \mu, the coefficient of dynamic friction:
\mu =  \frac{F}{mg}= \frac{99 N}{(50 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)}  =0.20

An initially uncharged 3.53 × 10 − 6 F capacitor and a 7290 Ω resistor are connected in series to a 1.50 V battery that has negl
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

The initial current, Io = 2.06×10^-4A

Explanation:

The I itial current ,Io of a circuit is given by:

Io = Vo/R

Where Vo = initial votage

R = resistance in ohms

Given:

Vo = 1.50V

R = 7290ohms

Io = 1.50/ 7290

Io = 2.06 ×10^-4A
