This problem can be solved using the following relation: 1 kilometer = 6.6846e-9 AU. Since we are already given the number of kilometers, we simply have to multiply it to its equivalent in AU to solve for the equivalent distance. This is done below:

46 000 000 * <span>6.6846e-9 = 0.3 AU</span>

A bridge is supported by two piers located 14 meters apart. Both the left and right piers provide an upward force on the bridge,
almond37 [142]

Answer:

4375 N, 7875 N

Explanation:

since the body is equilibrium

total upward force = total downward force

w weight of the bridge = FL + FR

when the car was introduced,

total downward force = total upward force

FL₁ + FR₁ = w + (m × acceleration due to gravity) with w = FL + FR

then FL₁ + FR₁  = FL + FR + Mcg

FL₁ + FR₁  - FL - FR = Mcg

ΔFL + ΔFR = 1250 × 9.8 = 12250 N

taken the left as the pivot point and using the principle of moment

ΔFR × 14 m = 12250 N × 5 m + (ΔFL × 0 m) since the left is the pivot point.

ΔFR = 61250 / 14 = 4375 N

but

ΔFL + ΔFR = 12250 N

ΔFL = 12250 - 4375 = 7875 N

An infinite line of charge produces a field of magnitude 4.90 ✕ 104 n/c at a distance of 1.9 m. calculate the linear charge dens
bekas [8.4K]
From Gauss law we have
E = 2kx/r where x=linear charge density, r=distance from the wire=1.7 m
k =9 x 10^9 SI units.....we have been given E = 3.8 x 10^4 N/C ..... so plugging numbers we get

x = 3.59 x 10^ -6 C/ M (coulomb per meter) =linear charge density

A car is initially traveling at 12 m/s when the driver sees a yellow light ahead. He accelerates at a constant 7 m/s^2 for 6 s i
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

v = 54m/s

Explanation:

a =  \frac{v - u}{t}

a = 7m/s²

u = 12m/s

t = 6s

7 = (v-12)/6

v - 12 = 42

v = 54m/s
