While out hiking, you and your buddy decide to have some fun with the rocks laying all around. While sitting on a high cliff, ov

erlooking a lake, you each drop a rock into the water.
Describe the change in motion of the rock as it enters the water.

When we drop the stone in air then during its motion in air the net force on the stone is due to gravity

so its net force is given as

$F = mg$

here we know that

$ma = mg$

so we have

$a = g$

now as soon as it will enter into the water then it will have resistive force due to water as well as buoyant force due to water on it in opposite direction

so the net force on the stone will decrease

so as soon as it will enter into the water the acceleration of stone will decrease due to which the rate of increase in speed of the stone will decrease as it will enter into the water

Does the gas have a well defined structure

dem82 [27]

What gas? Gas is an invisible form so I don't see how it would have a "defined structure".

An automobile starter motor has an equivalent resistance of 0.055 Ï and is supplied by a 12.0 v battery which has a 0.0305 Ï int

LiRa [457]

12 V is the f.e.m. $\epsilon$ of the battery. The potential difference that is applied to the motor is actually the fem minus the voltage drop on the internal resistance r:
$\epsilon - Ir$
this is equal to the voltage drop on the resistance of the motor R:
$RI$
so we can write:
$\epsilon - Ir = RI$
and using $r=0.0305~\Omega$ and $R=0.055~\Omega$ we can find the current I:
$I= \frac{\epsilon}{R+r}=140~A$

You are working in cooperation with the Public Health department to design an electrostatic trap for particles from auto emissio

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that:

Charge (q) on the particle = 3 × 10⁻⁸ C

mass (m) of the particle = 6 × 10⁻⁹ kg

at a distance x = 15 cm , the velocity in the plate = 900 m/s²

For the square plate, the surface charged density σ = -8 × 10⁻⁶ C/m²

To start with calculating the electric field as a result of the square plate; we use the formula;

$E = \dfrac{\sigma }{2 \varepsilon_o}$

$E = \dfrac{8 \times 10^{-6} }{2 \times 8.85 \times 10^{-12}}$

$E = 4.51977 \times 10^5 \ V/m$

On the square plate; The electric force F = Eq

$F = (4.51977 \times 10^5 \ V/m )(3\times 10^{-8} \ C)$

$F = 1.3559 \times 10^{-2} \ N$

The acceleration $a =\dfrac{ F}{m}{$

$a = \dfrac{1.3559\times 10^{-2} \ N}{6 \times 10^{-9} \ Kg}$

$a = 2.25988 \times 10^6 \ m/s^2$

For the particle, the velocity at distance x = 7 m can be calculated by using the formula:

$(\dfrac{1}{2}) mv^2 = \Delta Vq$

$v^2 = \dfrac{2 Eq}{dm}$

$v^2 = \dfrac{2 * 4.51977 \times 10^5 \times 3 \times 10^{-8} }{0.07 \times 6\times 10^{-9} }$

$v^2 = 64568142.86 \ m/s$

$v =\sqrt{ 64568142.86 \ m/s}$

$\mathbf{v = 8.035 \times 10^3 \ m/s}$

From the calculation, we realize that the charge acting between the particle and the plate is said to be "opposite".

Hence, the force is an attractive force.

Similarly, there is a gradual increase exhibited by the velocity of the particle.

Therefore, the particles get to the detector, but the detector failed to get detect due to the velocity which is greater than 1000 m/s.
