Right.  You are true.  The direction of the electric field is defined to be
the direction of the force on a small positive charge placed in the field.

A lunar module weighs 12 metric tons on the surface of the Earth. How much work is done in propelling the module from the surfac
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

W=76.55 miles.metric tons

Explanation:

Given that

Weight on the earth = 12 tons

So weight on the moon =12/6 = 2 tons

 ( because at moon g will become g/6)

As we know that

F=\dfrac{K}{x^2}

Here x= 1100 miles

F 2 tons

2=\dfrac{K}{1100^2}

So

K=2.4\times 10^6

We know that

Work = F. dx

W=\int_{x_1}^{x_2}F.dx

W=\int_{1100}^{1140}\dfrac{2.4\times 10^6}{x^2}.dx

W=-2.4\times 10^6\left[\dfrac{1}{x}\right]_{1100}^{1140}

W=-2.4\times 10^6\left[\dfrac{1}{1140}-\dfrac{1}{1100}\right]

W=76.55 miles.metric tons

You are pulling your little sister on her sled across an icy (frictionless) surface. When you exert a constant horizontal force
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

Mass of Little Sister = 44.17 kg

Explanation:

From Newton's second law of motion, the magnitude of force applied on the sled is given by the following formula:

F = ma

where,

F = Force Applied = 120 N

a = Acceleration = 2.3 m/s²

m = Mass of Sled + Mass of Little Sister = 8 kg + Mass of Little Sister

Therefore,

120 N = (2.3 m/s²)(8 kg + Mass of Little Sister)

(120 N)/(2.3 m/s²) = 8 kg + Mass of Little Sister

Mass of Little Sister = 52.17 kg - 8 kg

<u>Mass of Little Sister = 44.17 kg</u>

An ice skater weighs 500 [N]. He is coasting to the right at a constant velocity of 2 [m/s]. Assume
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

The net force on the skater is zero. (F_{net} = 0\,N)

Explanation:

According to Newton's First Law, an object is at equilibrium when either it is at rest or moves at constant velocity, which means a net force of zero. Based on the given statement, there are no external forces acting on skate and, therefore, the net force on the skater is zero. (F_{net} = 0\,N)

Which of Newton's laws of motion describes the motion of an object that has a net<br> force of ON?
algol [13]

Newton's first and second laws of motion both do, but I think the one you're looking for is: <em>The First Law of Motion</em>.  That description is a little more direct.

It says that if an object is not acted on by a net external force, then it continues in "constant, uniform motion".
