Answer:The electric field is zero and the potential is positive.

Explanation:

Two identical positive charges are separated by a certain distance and midway between charges two identical positive charges are placed near each other.

So the Electric field at midway is zero because the electric field due to both charges add up to give zero electric field.(because they point in opposite direction)

Potential is scalar quantity and charges are positive so they add up to give potential.

In which city did the wright brothers take off on their very first flight
Nezavi [6.7K]
<h2>Answer: Kitty Hawk, North Carolina </h2>

The Wright brothers, Wilbur and Orville, were pioneers of aviation, since they flew in a device heavier than air, which was inconceivable at that time.

Their first successful flight was on December 17th, 1903 in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, which lasted only 12 seconds in which their plane (the Flyer I, with 341 kg, 6.4 m long and a wingspan of 12.3 m) traveled 37 m without touching the ground. This was achieved through the help of an external catapult that "threw" them into the air.

It should be noted that the Wright brothers only studied until high school, however, their passion for solving the problem of the human inability to fly, their perseverance and experience acquired over the years in their bicycle company, led them to reach that goal. An achievement that marked the beginning of the  aviation era.

A simple pendulum is used to determine the acceleration due to gravity at the surface of a planet. The pendulum has a length of
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

Acceleration due to gravity is 20 m/sec^2

So option (E) will be correct answer

Explanation:

We have given length of the pendulum l = 2 m

Time period of the pendulum T = 2 sec

We have to find acceleration due to gravity g

We know that time period of pendulum is given by

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}

2=2\times 3.14 \sqrt{\frac{2}{g}}

0.3184= \sqrt{\frac{2}{g}}

Squaring both side

0.1014= {\frac{2}{g}}

g=19.71=20m/sec^2

So acceleration due to gravity is 20 m/sec^2

So option (E) will be correct answer.

What is the force of gravitational attraction between an object with a mass of 100 kg and another object that has a mass of 300
Leokris [45]

Answer:

5 x 10⁻⁷N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of object 1  = 100kg

Mass of object 2 = 300kg

Distance  = 2m

Unknown:

Force of gravitational attraction between the objects  = ?

Solution:

Newton's law of universal gravitation states that the gravitational force between two bodies is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

From Newton's law of universal gravitation we derive an expression:

       Fg  =  \frac{Gm_{1} m_{2}  }{r^{2} }

G is the universal gravitation constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹

m is the mass

r is the distance between the bodies

Now insert the parameters and solve;

    Fg  = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ x \frac{100 x 300}{2^{2} }    = 5 x 10⁻⁷N
