The force between two charges is proportional to the product of the charges.

If only one of the charges is reduced by a factor of 3, then the force is reduced by a factor of 3.

If both charges are reduced by a factor of 3, then the force is reduced by a factor of 9.

Suppose a firm is producing 2,475 units of output by hiring 50 workers (W = $20 per hour) and 25 units of capital (R = $10 per h

Neko [114]

Answer

given,

firm is producing = 2,475 units

output by hiring 50 workers W = $20 per hour

25 units of capital R = $10 per hour

marginal product of labor = 40

marginal product of capital = 25

$\dfrac{MP_l}{MP_c}=\dfrac{40}{25}$

$\dfrac{MP_l}{MP_c}=\dfrac{8}{5}$

$\dfrac{W}{R}=\dfrac{20}{10}$

$\dfrac{W}{R}=2$

$\dfrac{MP_l}{MP_c} < \dfrac{W}{R}$

Firm is not minimizing the cost because the firm use more capital and less labor.

A uniformly charged rod (length = 2.0 m, charge per unit length = 3.0 nc/m) is bent to form a semicircle. What is the magnitude

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

84.82N/C.

Explanation:

The x-components of the electric field cancel; therefore, we only care about the y-components.

The y-component of the differential electric field at the center is

$dE = \frac{kdQ }{R^2} sin(\theta )$ .

Now, let us call $\lambda$ the charge per unit length, then we know that

$dQ = \lambda Rd\theta$ ;

therefore,

$dE = \frac{k \lambda R d\theta }{R^2} sin(\theta )$

$dE = \frac{k \lambda d\theta }{R} sin(\theta )$

Integrating

$E = \frac{k \lambda }{R}\int_0^\pi sin(\theta )d\theta$

$E = \frac{k \lambda }{R}*[-cos(\pi )+cos(0) ]$

$E = \frac{2k \lambda }{R}.$

Now, we know that

$\lambda = 3.0*10^{-9}C/m,$

$k = 9*10^9kg\cdot m^3\cdot s^{-4}\cdot A^{-2},$

and the radius of the semicircle is

$\pi R = 2.0m,\\\\R = \dfrac{2.0m}{\pi };$

therefore,

$E = \frac{2(9*10^9) (3.0*10^{-9}) }{\dfrac{2.0}{\pi } }.$

$\boxed{E = 84.82N/C.}$

Sheila eats an energy bar right before she goes on a run. What energy changes will occur in sheila as she runs after eating?

LiRa [457]

The energy bar eaten by Sheila has chemical energy locked up inside it. This chemical energy is converted to mechanical energy in form of potential and kinetic energy and this in turn is converted to heat energy as the run progresses. Thus, the energy changes are: chemical energy to mechanical energy [kinetic and potential] and finally to heat energy.

6. Given that white light contains all colors of the spectrum, what growth result would you expect under white light?

lesya692 [45]

You could probably expect normal plant growth, as a white light is similar to the sun in the respect that it contains all colors of the spectrum.
