Newton's third law states that when an object exerts force on another object, the second object exerts an equal but opposite for

ce on the first object. Which of the following shows an example of this
A. A girl hits a volleyball. Her hand exerts a force on the ball, and the ball exerts a force on her hand.

B. A woman presses on both sides of a box with equal force.

C. A moving cart becomes more difficult to stop as more mass is added to it.

Answer:

A. A girl hits a volleyball. Her hand exerts a force on the ball, and the ball exerts a force on her hand.

Explanation:

As rightly stated, from Newton's third law, we understand that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction, and if we closely examine the listed options, starting with A

A. The said girl acts by hitting the volleyball, i.e her hand exerts a force on the ball and the reaction occurs as the ball exerts a force on her hand.

B. Here, there is an action with no account of reaction, the woman presses the boxes (action), even thought with equal force on the sides, this option gives no detail of an equal and opposite reaction.

C. There is an action taking place by adding more masses to the moving cart, however, there is no explanation in this option for a reaction

Therefore, with a close look of the above listed options, it can be concluded that only option A shows an example of Newton's third law.

What is the force acting on a boulder with a mass of 10 kg and an acceleration of 2 m/s/s?
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

<h2>20 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 10 × 2

We have the final answer as

<h3>20 N</h3>

A light spring obeys Hooke's law. The spring's unstretched length is 33.5 cm. One end of the spring is attached to the top of a
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

807.88N/m

Explanation:

<em>The  question has some missing details in it, nevertheless, based on the given data we want to find the spring constant K</em>

Step one

given data

Unstretched length = 33.5 cm

Final length of the spring = 42.0 cm

Δx= 42-33.5

Δx=8.5cm to m= 0.085m

mass m= 7kg

The force on the spring

F=mg

F= 7*9.81

F=68.67N

Step two:

From Hooke's law, we can make k subject of formula and find the spring constant k, we have

F=kΔx---------1

make k subject of the formula

k=F/Δx

k= 68.67/ 0.085

k=807.88N/m

A river with a flow rate of 7 m3/s discharges into a lake with a volume of 9,000,000 m3. The concentration of a particular VOC i
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

The concentration downstream reduces to 0.03463mg/L

Explanation:

Initially let us calculate the time it is required to fill the lake, since for that period of time the pollutant shall remain in the lake before being flushed out.

Thus the detention period is calculated as

t=\frac{V}{Q}\\\\t=\frac{9000000}{7}=1.285\times 10^{6}seconds\\\\\therefore t = 14.872days

Now the concentration of the pollutant after 14.872 days is calculated as

N_{t}=N_{0}e^{-kt}

where

N_{o} is the initial concentration

't' is the time elapsed after which the remaining concentration is calculated

k is the dissociation constant.

Applying values we get

N_{t}=3\times e^{-0.3\times 14.872}

N_{t}=0.03463mg/L

A solid sphere of radius 40.0cm has a total positive charge of 26.0μC uniformly distributed throughout its volume. Calculate the
Rudiy27

The magnitude of the electric field for 60 cm is 6.49 × 10^5 N/C

R(radius of the solid sphere)=(60cm)( 1m /100cm)=0.6m

Q\;(\text{total charge of the solid sphere})=(26\;\mathrm{\mu C})\left(\dfrac{1\;\mathrm{C}}{10^6\;\mathrm{\mu C}} \right)={26\times 10^{-6}\;\mathrm{C}}

Since the Gaussian sphere of radius r>R encloses all the charge of the sphere similar to the situation in part (c), we can use Equation (6) to find the magnitude of the electric field:

E=\dfrac{Q}{4\pi\epsilon_0 r^2}

Substitute numerical values:

E&=\dfrac{24\times 10^{-6}}{4\pi (8.8542\times 10^{-12})(0.6)}\\ &={6.49\times 10^5\;\mathrm{N/C}\;\text{directed radially outward}}}

The spherical Gaussian surface is chosen so that it is concentric with the charge distribution.

As an example, consider a charged spherical shell S of negligible thickness, with a uniformly distributed charge Q and radius R. We can use Gauss's law to find the magnitude of the resultant electric field E at a distance r from the center of the charged shell. It is immediately apparent that for a spherical Gaussian surface of radius r < R the enclosed charge is zero: hence the net flux is zero and the magnitude of the electric field on the Gaussian surface is also 0 (by letting QA = 0 in Gauss's law, where QA is the charge enclosed by the Gaussian surface).
