Near the surface of Earth an electric field points radially downward and has a magnitude of approximately 100 N/C. What charge (

magnitude and sign) would have to be placed on a penny that has a mass of 3g to cause it to rise into the air with an upqard acceleration of 0.19 m/s^2

Answer:

q=2.997\times 10^{-4}C

Sign-Negative

Explanation:

We are given that

Electric field =E=100NC^{-1} (Radially downward)

Acceleration=0.19 ms^{-2}(Upward)

Mass of charge=3 g=3\times 10^{-3}kg

1kg=1000g

We have to find the magnitude and sign of  charge would have to be placed on a penny .

By newton's second law

\sum F_y=ma

\sum F_y=qE-mg

Substitute the values then we get

qE-mg=ma

Substitute the values then we get

q(100)-3\times 10^{-3}(9.8)=3\times 10^{-3}(0.19)

100q-29.4\times 10^{-3}=0.57\times 10^{-3}

100q=0.57\times 10^{-3}+29.4\times 10^{-3}=29.97\times 10^{-3}

q=\frac{29.97\times 10^{-3}}{100}

q=2.997\times 10^{-4}C

Sign of charge =Negative

Because electric force acting  in opposite direction of electric field therefore,charge on penny will be negative.

I hate life do u know why
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

Most of us have experienced that pivotal peak of pain, anger or frustration in which we want to scream “I hate my life.” Yet, the feeling that a dark cloud has specifically settled over us and our experiences can feel pretty isolating. The truth is, no matter how singled out or overwhelmed we feel, and no matter what area we are struggling in, we are not alone.  More than half of U.S. workers are unhappy with their job.  One in 10 Americans struggles with depression. All of us have moments of utter despair. Escaping from this hopeless-seeming state may feel impossible. Yet, in reality, we are not doomed, and we are not powerless.  No matter what our circumstances, we can all learn tools to help us emerge from the darkest moments in our lives.

How much heat is needed to warm 0.072kg of gold from 20 celsius and 90 celsius if the specific heat of gold 136 joules
dybincka [34]

Heat supplied to the gold will raise the temperature of the gold from 20 degree Celsius to 90 degree Celsius.

Mass of the gold (m) = 0.072 kg

Temperature change (ΔT) = 90 - 20 = 70 degree Celsius

Specific heat capacity of the gold (c) = 136 J/kg C

Heat supplied = m × c × ΔT

Heat supplied = 0.072 × 136 × 70

Heat supplied = 685.44 Joules

Hence, the heat supplied to the gold to raise the temperature from 20 degree Celsius to 90 degree Celsius = 685.44 Joules

Which of the following ocean motions are powered by the wind? waves tides surface currents deep ocean currents
Effectus [21]

At the entrance of most beaches, there is a bulletin board with notices about water conditions: maybe a faded sign warning about rip currents and a list of this week's tide tables. Most people pass them by without a second thought, but if you want to enter the ocean, it is important to know its movements, whether to avoid being caught in a riptide or to figure out when the waves will be at their best.


Hope this helps
