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

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

The required frequency = 0.442 Hz

Explanation:

Frequency $f = ( \dfrac{1}{2 \pi}) \omega$

where;

$\omega = \sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m} }$

Then;

$f = \Bigg ( \dfrac{1}{2 \pi} \Bigg ) \Bigg( \sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m} } \Bigg )$

However;

$k = \dfrac{F}{x}$ and;

mass $m = m_{car } + m_{person}$

$f = \Bigg ( \dfrac{1}{2 \pi} \Bigg ) \Bigg( \sqrt{\dfrac{\dfrac{F}{x}}{m_{car}+m_{person}} } \Bigg )$

$f = \Bigg ( \dfrac{1}{2 \pi} \Bigg ) \Bigg( \sqrt{\dfrac{{F}}{x(m_{car}+m_{person})} } \Bigg )$

where;

$F = m_{person}g$

Then;

$f = \Bigg ( \dfrac{1}{2 \pi} \Bigg ) \Bigg( \sqrt{\dfrac{ {m_{person}g }}{x(m_{car}+m_{person})} } \Bigg )$

replacing the values;

$f = \Bigg ( \dfrac{1}{2 \pi} \Bigg ) \Bigg( \sqrt{\dfrac{ {(88 \ kg)* (9.81 \ m/s^2) }}{(5.36 \times 10^{-2} \ m) (2002 \ kg +88 \ kg)} } \Bigg )$

$\mathbf{f = 0.442 \ Hz}$

A giraffe, standing 6.00 m tall, bites a branch off a tree to chew on the leaves

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

1.11 s.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Height (H) = 6 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) =.?

The time taken for the branch to hit the ground can be obtained as follow:

H = ½gt²

6 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

6 = 4.9 × t²

Divide both side by 4.9

t² = 6/4.9

Take the square root of both side

t = √(6/4.9)

t = 1.11 s

Therefore, it will take 1.11 s for the branch to hit the ground.

Water has a mass per mole of 18.0 g/mol, and each water mo- lecule (H2O) has 10 electrons. (a) How many electrons are there in o

Dovator [93]

Answer:

a) There are $3,35*10^{26}$ electrons in a liter of water.

b) The net charge is -53601707,1 C

Explanation:

a) To find out how many electrons are in a liter of water (equivalent to 1000 grams of water), we have to find out how many molecules of water there are and then multiply it by 10 (e- per molecule).

We can find out how many molecules are by finding the number of moles and then multiplying it by Avogadro's number (number of elements per mol):

$e^{-}= \frac{m_{water} }{M_{water} } * Avogadro* \frac{e^{-} }{molecule}= \frac{1000g }{18g/mol} * 6,022*10^{23} * \frac{10e^{-} }{molecule}=3,35*10^{26} e^{-}$

b) As all electrons have the same charge, in order to find the net charge of those electrons we have to multiply the charge of a single electron by the number of electrons:

$Net charge= -1,602*10^{-19} \frac{C}{e^{-} } *3,35*10^{26} e^{-}=-53601707,1 C$

An important clarification is that while the net charge may seem huge, water as a whole is a neutral medium, because there are as many protons as there are electrons, and as they have the same charge, the net charge of water is 0.
