32,000 because 1.6 times 20,000 is 32,000

Set up a proportion

1 mile/1.6 km = 20,000miles/x

Cross Multiply
x = (20,000) * (1.6)
x = 32,000 kilometers

Answer:

d = 4 d₀o

Explanation:

We can solve this exercise using the relationship between work and the variation of kinetic energy

W = ΔK

In that case as the car stops v_f = 0

the work is

W = -fr d

we substitute

- fr d₀ = 0 - ½ m v₀²

d₀ = ½ m v₀² / fr

now they indicate that the vehicle is coming at twice the speed

v = 2 v₀

using the same expressions we find

d = ½ m (2v₀)² / fr

d = 4 (½ m v₀² / fr)

d = 4 d₀o

A man stands on a platform that is rotating (without friction) with an angular speed of 1.0 rev/s; his arms are outstretched and

Airida [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

$N_1=1 rev/s$

angular velocity $\omega =2\pi N_1=6.284 rad/s$

Combined moment of inertia of stool,student and bricks $=6\ kg.m^2$

Now student pull off his hands so as to increase its speed to suppose $N_2$ rev/s

$\omega _2=2\pi N_2$

After Pulling off hands so final moment of inertia is

$I_2=2\ kg-m^2$

Conserving angular momentum as no external torque is applied

$I_1\omega _1=I_2\omega _2$

$6\times 6.284=2\times \omega _2$

$\omega _2=18.85\ rad/s$

$N_2=3 rev/s$

If two charged objects in a laboratory are brought to a distance of 0.22 meters away from each other. What is

zysi [14]

Answer:

$q_2=2.47\times 10^{-4}\ C$

Explanation:

The charge on one object, $q_1=9.9\times 10^{-5}\ C$

The distance between the charges, r = 0.22 m

The force between the charges, F = 4,550 N

Let q₂ is the charge on the other sphere. The electrostatic force between two charges is given by the formula as follows :

$F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}\\\\q_2=\dfrac{Fr^2}{kq_1}\\\\q_2=\dfrac{4550\times (0.22) ^2}{9\times 10^9\times 9.9\times 10^{-5}}\\\\q_2=2.47\times 10^{-4}\ C$

So, the charge on the other sphere is $2.47\times 10^{-4}\ C$ .

3. Suppose that you have an electrically charged stick. If you divide the stick in half, each half will have half the original c

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

No, you can't keep on dividing the charge forever.

Explanation:

No, you can't keep on dividing the charge in that manner forever because the total charge of the stick is an integer multiples of individual units known as an elementary charge, <em>which is the electron (e) charge (e = 1.602x10⁻¹⁹C)</em>.

Therefore the limit of the division of the original charge will be the electron charge since it is the smallest charge that can exist freely.

I hope it helps you!
