Answer:

82700 m

Explanation:

Applying Coulomb's law of electrostatic

F = kq²/r².......................... Equation 1

Note: Both charges are the same

Where F = force of attraction, q = negative charge, r = distance between the charges, k = coulomb's constant

make r the subject of the equation

r = √(kq²/F).............. Equation 1

Given: F = 19 N, q = 3.8 C, k = 9×10⁹ Nm²/C²

Substitute these values into equation 2

r = √(3.8²×9×10⁹/19)

r = √(68.4×10⁸)

r = 8.27×10⁴ m

r = 82700 m

Hence the two charges are 82700 m apart

Mass of the copper penny m = 2.6 g Atomic mass of copper = 63.55, Atomic number = 29, So the number of neutrons = Atomic mass - Atomic number = 63 - 29 = 34 a. Neutron mass = 34 x (2.6 / 63.55) = 1.4 grams Copper atoms per mole = 6.040 x 10^23 atoms/mol moles of copper = 2.6 / 63.06 = 0.04123 mol Total atoms in the copper = 6.040 x 10^23 atoms/mol x 0.04123 mol = 0.25 x 10^23 atoms Number of electrons in the copper = 29 per atom Mass of the electron = 9.085 x 10^-28 g b. Electron mass = 0.25 x 10^23 x 29 x 9.085 x 10^-28 = 65.86 x 10^-5 g

An object in projectile motion will follow which path? a]curved up from the ground b]curved down toward the ground c]straight do

Lesechka [4]

It's B because when you throw something it doesn't go up it slowly descends downward

Change in Energy Quick Check

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

The force of gravity on the object decreases. (FALSE)

The potential energy of the object decreases. (TRUE)

The acceleration due to gravity decreases. (FALSE)

The kinetic energy of the object decrease (FALSE)

Explanation:

FORCE OF GRAVITY:

Force of gravity on the object is the weight of object, which depends upon the mass and value of acceleration due to gravity (W = mg). Since, the value mass is constant on Earth and acceleration due to gravity is also constant on earth.

Therefore, force of gravity remains same on the object. The statement is false.

POTENTIAL ENERGY:

Potential energy of object depends upon the mass, value of acceleration due to gravity, and change in height of object (P.E = mgΔh). Since, the value mass is constant on Earth and acceleration due to gravity increases as the object moves towards the surface of earth. But, the height of object is decreasing.

Therefore, potential energy of object decreases. The statement is true.

ACCELERATION DUE TO GRAVITY:

Acceleration due to gravity depends upon the altitude (gh = g[1 - 2h/Re]). Since, the height of object is decreasing.

Therefore, acceleration due to gravity increases. The statement is false.

But, this change is not significant.

KINETIC ENERGY:

Kinetic Energy of object, which depends upon the mass and velocity of the object (K.E = mv²/2). Since, the value mass is constant on Earth and velocity increases as the object moves towards the surface of earth.

Therefore, kinetic energy of the object also increases. The statement is false.
