Answer:

a) 4.681*10^10 electrons

b) 3.67*10^12 electrons

Explanation:

The amount of electrons in a charge of 1C is:

1C=6.2415*10^{18}\ electrons

You use the previous equality as a conversion factor.

a) The sing of the charge is not important in the calculation of the number electrons, so, you use the absolute value of the charge

7.50nC=7.50*10^{-9}C*\frac{6.2415*10^{18}}{1C}=4.681*10^{10}\ electrons

In 7.50nC there are 4.61*10^18 electrons

b)

0.580\mu C=0.580*10^{-6}C*\frac{6.2415*10^{18}}{1C}=3.67*10^{12}\ electrons

To obtain a charge of  0.580 µC in a neutral object you need to take out 3.67*10^12 electrons

Answer:

96.21 ft/s

Explanation:

To solve this, you only need to use one expression which is:

Vf² = Vo² + 2gh

g = 9.8 m/s²

However, this exercise is talking in feet, so convert the gravity to feet first:

g = 9.8 * 3.28 = 32.15 ft/s²

Vo is zero, because it's a free fall and in free fall the innitial speed is always zero. With this, let's calculate the speed at 2 seconds, with a height of 64 ft, and then with the 256 ft:

V1 = √2*32.15*64

V1 = 64.15 ft/s

V2 = √2*32.15*256

V2 = 128.3 ft/s

So the average rate is:

V = 128.3 + 64.15 / 2

V = 96.22 ft/s
