The electrostatic force between two charges is given by
F=k_e  \frac{Q q}{r^2}
where
k_e = 8.99 \cdot 10^9 N m^2 C^{-2} is the Coulomb's constant
Q=+8.46 \cdot 10^{-6} C is one of the charges
q is the other charge
r=0.52 m is the distance between the two charges

We know the intensity of the force between the two charges, F=0.967 N, so we can re-arrange the formula to find the value of the charge q:
q= \frac{F r^2}{k_e Q}= \frac{(0.967 N)(0.52 m)^2}{(8.99 \cdot 10^9 N m^2 C^{-2})(+8.46 \cdot 10^{-6} C)}  =3.44 \cdot 10^{-6} C

And the sign of the charge is positive, because Q is positive and F is positive as well.

Consider the hydrogen atom. How does the energy difference between adjacent orbit radii change as the principal quantum number i
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

the energy difference between adjacent levels decreases as the quantum number increases

Explanation:

The energy levels of the hydrogen atom are given by the following formula:

E=-E_0 \frac{1}{n^2}

where

E_0 = 13.6 eV is a constant

n is the level number

We can write therefore the energy difference between adjacent levels as

\Delta E=-13.6 eV (\frac{1}{n^2}-\frac{1}{(n+1)^2})

We see that this difference decreases as the level number (n) increases. For example, the difference between the levels n=1 and n=2 is

\Delta E=-13.6 eV(\frac{1}{1^2}-\frac{1}{2^2})=-13.6 eV(1-\frac{1}{4})=-13.6 eV(\frac{3}{4})=-10.2 eV

While the difference between the levels n=2 and n=3 is

\Delta E=-13.6 eV(\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{3^2})=-13.6 eV(\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{9})=-13.6 eV(\frac{5}{36})=-1.9 eV

And so on.

So, the energy difference between adjacent levels decreases as the quantum number increases.

A 4.5-kg, three legged stool supports a 89-kg person. If each leg of the stool has a cross-sectional diameter of 2.8 cm and the
kkurt [141]

Answer:

4.96 × 10⁵ Pa

Explanation:

F = mg

F = (m_{person}+m_{stool})g\\\\F =  (4.5 + 89)*9.8\\\\F = 916.3 N

This force is evenly distributed on the three leg

radius, r = d/2

= 2.8 / 2

= 1.4 cm = 0.014 m

total cross sectional area of the three legs, A = 3*pi*r^2

= 3\times\pi \times0.014^2\\\\= 1.847\times10^-^3m^2

Pressure due to weight,

P = Weight/A

P = / 1.847 × 10⁻³\\P = \frac{ 916.3N}{1.847\times10^-^3} \\\\P= 496032.9Pa

P = 4.96 × 10⁵ Pa

Two large non-conducting plates of surface area A = 0.25 m 2 carry equal but opposite charges What is the energy density of the
Stells [14]

Answer:

5.1*10^3 J/m^3

Explanation:

Using E = q/A*eo

And

q =75*10^-6 C

A = 0.25

eo = 8.85*10^-12

Energy density = 1/2*eo*(E^2) = 1/2*eo*(q/A*eo)^2 = [q^2] / [2*(A^2)*eo]

= [(75*10^-6)^2] / [2*(0.25)^2*8.85*10^-12]

= 5.1*10^3 J/m^3

You observe three carts moving to the left. Cart A moves to the left at nearly constant speed. Cart B moves to the left, gradual
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:cart B

Explanation:

For cart A speed is constant therefore there is no acceleration because acceleration is rate of change of velocity

thus there is no net force

For cart B there is change in velocity in the left direction , so there is net acceleration towards left

Force=mass\times acceleration

so there is net force in the left direction

For cart C there is decrease in velocity i.e. negative acceleration or deceleration . Therefore there is a net force towards right which opposes the motion

Please help me
qaws [65]

-- We know that the y-component of acceleration is the derivative of the
y-component of velocity.

-- We know that the y-component of velocity is the derivative of the
y-component of position.

-- We're given the y-component of position as a function of time.

So, finding the velocity and acceleration is simply a matter of differentiating
the position function ... twice.

Now, the position function may look big and ugly in the picture.  But with the
exception of  't' , everything else in the formula is constants, so we don't even
need any fancy processes of differentiation.  The toughest part of this is going
to be trying to write it out, given the text-formatting capabilities of the wonderful
envelope-pushing website we're working on here.

From the picture . . . . . y (t) = (1/2) (a₀ - g) t² - (a₀ / 30t₀⁴ ) t⁶

First derivative . . . y' (t) = (a₀ - g) t  -  6 (a₀ / 30t₀⁴ ) t⁵  =  (a₀ - g) t  -  (a₀ / 5t₀⁴ ) t⁵

There's your velocity . . . /\ .

Second derivative . . . y'' (t) = (a₀ - g) -  5 (a₀ / 5t₀⁴ ) t⁴ = (a₀ - g) -  (a₀ /t₀⁴ ) t⁴

and there's your acceleration . . . /\ .
That's the one you're supposed to graph.

a₀ is the acceleration due to the model rocket engine thrust
     combined with the mass of the model rocket
'g' is the acceleration of gravity ... 9.8 m/s² or 32.2 ft/sec²
t₀  is how long the model rocket engine burns

Pick, or look up, some reasonable figures for a₀ and t₀
and you're in business.

The big name in model rocketry is Estes.  Their website will give you
all the real numbers for thrust and burn-time of their engines, if you
want to follow it that far.
