Explanation:

The wavelength of green light is about 500 nanometers, or two thousandths of a millimeter. The typical wavelength of a microwave oven is about 12 centimeters, which is larger than a baseball.

As far as the field goes, the two charges opposite each other cancel!
So E = kQ / d² = k * Q / (d/√2)² = 2*k*Q / d² ◄
and since k = 8.99e9N·m²/C²,
E = 1.789e10N·m²/C² * Q / d²

A woman of mass 50 kg is swimming with a velocity of 1.6 m/s. If she stops stroking and glides to a stop in the water, what is t

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Impulse of force = -80 Ns

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 50kg

Initial velocity = 1.6m/s

Since she glides to a stop, her final velocity equals to zero (0).

Now, we would find the change in velocity.

$Change \; in \; velocity = final \; velocity - initial \; velocity$

Substituting into the equation above;

Change in velocity = 0 - 1.6 = 1.6m/s

$Impulse \; of \; force = mass * change \; in \; velocity$

Substituting into the equation, we have;

$Impulse \; of \; force = 50 * -1.6$

Impulse of force = -80 Ns

Therefore, the impulse of the force that stops her is -80 Newton-seconds and it has a negative value because it is working in an opposite direction, thus, bringing her to a stop.
