For this problem, we use the Coulomb's law written in equation as:

F = kQ₁Q₂/d²
where
F is the electrical force
k is a constant equal to 9×10⁹
Q₁ and Q₂ are the charge of the two objects
d is the distance between the two objects

Substituting the values:

F = (9×10⁹)(-22×10⁻⁹ C)(-22×10⁻⁹ C)/(0.10 m)²
F = 0.0004356 N

Consider a steel guitar string of initial length L=1.00 meter and cross-sectional area A=0.500 square millimeters. The Young's m

Reil [10]

Answer:

$\Delta l=0.015m$

Explanation:

We have given initial length of the steel guitar l = 1 m

Cross sectional area $A=0.5mm^2=0.5\times 10^{-6}m^2$

Young's modulus $\gamma=2\times 10^{11}Pa$

Force F = 1500 N

So stress $=\frac{force}{area}=\frac{1500}{0.5\times 10^{-6}}=3000\times 10^{-6}=3\times 10^{9}Pa$

We know that young's modulus $=\frac{stress}{strain}$

So $2\times 10^{11}=\frac{3\times 10^{9}}{strain}$

$strain=1.5\times 10^{-2}=0.015m$

Now strain $=\frac{\Delta l}{l}$

$0.015=\frac{\Delta l}{1}$

$\Delta l=0.015m$

A girl stands on the edge of a merry-go-round of radius 1.71 m. If the merry go round uniformly accerlerates from rest to 20 rpm

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

$a = 0.53 m/s^2$

Explanation:

initially the merry go round is at rest

after 6.73 s the merry go round will accelerates to 20 rpm

so final angular speed is given as

$\omega = 2\pi f$

$\omega = 2\pi ( \frac{20}{60})$

$\omega = 2.10 rad/s$

so final tangential speed is given as

$v = r\omega$

$v = 1.71 (2.10) = 3.58 m/s$

now average acceleration of the girl is given as

$a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{\Delta t}$

$a = \frac{3.58 - 0}{6.73}$

$a = 0.53 m/s^2$

What is the density of a cube that has a mass of 3.75 g and a volume of 3 mL?

valina [46]

Answer:

$\displaystyle \rho=1.25\ g/ml$

Explanation:

<u>Density </u>

The density of a substance is the mass per unit volume. The density varies with temperature and pressure.

The formula to calculate the density of a substance of mass (m) and volume (V) is:

$\displaystyle \rho=\frac{m}{V}$

The cube has a mass of m=3.75 g and a volume of V=3 ml, thus the density is:

$\displaystyle \rho=\frac{3.75\ g}{3\ ml}$

$\boxed{\displaystyle \rho=1.25\ g/ml}$

Since 1 kg=1000 mg and 1 lt = 1000 ml, the density has the same value but with different units:

$\displaystyle \rho=1.25\ kg/l$
