A floating boat has a weight of 100 N. What is the buoyant force on the boat?

Physics

If the boat is floating, then it's just sitting there, and not accelerating
up or down.  That means the vertical forces on it must be balanced. 

So if its weight (acting downward) is 100 newtons, then the buoyant
force on it (acting upward) must also be 100 newtons.

Two balls of mass 0.09 kg hang on strings attached to the same point on the ceiling. The balls are given charges Q that cause th
telo118 [61]

Answer:

Q = 6.33μC

Explanation:

To find the value of the charge Q you take into account both gravitational force and electric force over each ball. By symmetry you can use the fact that both balls experiences the same forces. Hence you only take into account the forces for one ball for the x component and y component:

-Mg+Tcos\theta=0\\\\F_e-Tsin\theta=0

M: mass of the ball = 0.09kg

T: tension of the string

F_e: electric force between charges

angle = 45°

The electric force is given by:

F_e=k\frac{Q^2}{r^2}

Q: charge of the balls

r: distance between balls = 2m

You divide both equation in order to eliminate the tension T:

tan\theta=\frac{F_e}{Mg}=k\frac{Q^2}{Mgr^2}

By doing Q the subject of the formula and replacing you obtain:

Q=\sqrt{\frac{tan\theta Mgr^2}{k}}=\sqrt{\frac{tan45\°(0.09kg)(2m)^2}{(8.89*10^{9}Nm^2/C^2)}}=6.33*10^{-6}C=6.33\mu C

hence, the charge of the balls is 6.33μC

When a car's velocity is positive and its acceleration is negative, what is happening to the car's motion?
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

Assuming rightward is positive, the velocity is positive whenever the car is moving to the right, and the velocity is negative whenever the car is moving to the left. The acceleration points in the same direction as the velocity if the car is speeding up, and in the opposite direction if the car is slowing down.

Imagine a skinny straw in the water, standing right over the hole. The WEIGHT of the water in that straw is the force on the tape. Now, the volume of water in the straw is (1 mm^2) times (20 cm). Once you have the volume, you can use the density and gravity to find the weight. And THAT's the force on the tape. If the tape can't hold that force, then it peels off and the water runs out through the hole. /// This is a pretty hard problem, because it involved mm^2, cm, and m^3. You have to be very very very careful with your units as you work through this one. If you've been struggling with it, I'm almost sure the problem is the units.
