Answer: 1925 joules

Explanation:

weight of man = 550 N

height climbed = 3.5m

Work = ?

Since, work is done when the man pulled his weight over the height; work is expressed as the product of weight and height climbed

i.e Workdone = 550N x 3.5m

= 1925 joules

Thus, the man did a work of 1925 joules while climbing

Two charges (q1 = 3.8*10-6C, q2 = 3.2*10-6C) are separated by a distance of d = 3.25 m. Consider q1 to be located at the origin.

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

The distance is 1.69 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

First charge $q_{1}= 3.8\times10^{-6}\ C$

Second charge $q_{2}=3.2\times10^{-6}\ C$

Distance = 3.25 m

We need to calculate the distance

Using formula of electric field

$E_{1}=E_{2}$

$\dfrac{kq_{1}}{x^2}=\dfrac{kq_{2}}{(d-x)^2}$

$\dfrac{q_{1}}{q_{2}}=\dfrac{(x)^2}{(d-x)^2}$

$\sqrt{\dfrac{q_{1}}{q_{2}}}=\dfrac{x}{d-x}$

$x=(d-x)\times\sqrt{\dfrac{q_{1}}{q_{2}}}$

Put the value into the formula

$x=(3.25-x)\times\sqrt{\dfrac{3.8\times10^{-6}}{3.2\times10^{-6}}}$

$x+x\times\sqrt{\dfrac{3.8\times10^{-6}}{3.2\times10^{-6}}}=3.25\times\sqrt{\dfrac{3.8\times10^{-6}}{3.2\times10^{-6}}}$

$x(1+\sqrt{\dfrac{3.8\times10^{-6}}{3.2\times10^{-6}}})=3.25\times\sqrt{\dfrac{3.8\times10^{-6}}{3.2\times10^{-6}}}$

$x=\dfrac{3.25\times\sqrt{\dfrac{3.8\times10^{-6}}{3.2\times10^{-6}}}}{(1+\sqrt{\dfrac{3.8\times10^{-6}}{3.2\times10^{-6}}})}$

$x=1.69\ m$

Hence, The distance is 1.69 m.

The carbon isotope 14C is used for carbon dating of archeological artifacts. 14C(mass 2.34×10−26kg) decays by the process known

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

2240.92365 m/s

Explanation:

$m_1$ = Mass of electron = $9.11\times 10^{−31}\ kg$

$v_1$ = Speed of electron = $5.7\times 10^7\ m/s$

$p_2$ = Neutrino has a momentum = $7.3\times 10^{-24}\ kg m/s$

M = total mass = $2.34\times 10^{-26}\ kg$

In the x axis as the momentum is conserved

$Mv_x=m_1v_1\\\Rightarrow v_x=\dfrac{m_1v_1}{M}\\\Rightarrow v_x=\dfrac{9.11\times 10^{−31}\times 5.7\times 10^7}{2.34\times 10^{-26}}\\\Rightarrow v_x=2219.10256\ m/s$

In the y axis

$Mv_y=p_2\\\Rightarrow v_y=\dfrac{p_2}{M}\\\Rightarrow v_y=\dfrac{7.3\times 10^{-24}}{2.34\times 10^{-26}}\\\Rightarrow v_y=311.96581\ m/s$

The resultant velocity is

$R=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}\\\Rightarrow R=\sqrt{2219.10256^2+311.96581^2}\\\Rightarrow R=2240.92365\ m/s$

The recoil speed of the nucleus is 2240.92365 m/s

Please someone help me.

katovenus [111]

Answer:

acceleration of the car is 3 m\s^2

Explanation:

from rest means the initial velocity (vi) is zero

time = 5s

final velocity (vf) = 15m\s

a = vf - vi \ t

a = (15-0) \ 5

a= 3 m\s^2

which means that the car is speeding up 3 meters every second
