A charge of -3.02 μC is fixed in place. From a horizontal distance of 0.0377 m, a particle of mass 9.43 x 10^-3 kg and charge -9

.78 μC is fired with an initial speed of 80.4 m/s directly toward the fixed charge. How far does the particle travel before its speed is zero?

Answer:

d = 0.0306 m

Explanation:

Here we know that for the given system of charge we have no loss of energy as there is no friction force on it

So we will have

U + K = constant

\frac{kq_1q_2}{r_1} + \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2 = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r_2} + \frac{1}{2}mv_2^2

now we know when particle will reach the closest distance then due to electrostatic repulsion the speed will become zero.

So we have

\frac{(9 \times 10^9)(3.02 \mu C)(9.78 \mu C)}{0.0377} + \frac{1}{2}(9.43 \times 10^{-3})(80.4)^2 = \frac{(9 \times 10^9)(3.02 \mu C)(9.78 \mu C)}{r} + 0

7.05 + 30.5 = \frac{0.266}{r}

r = 7.08 \times 10^{-3} m

so distance moved by the particle is given as

d = r_1 - r_2

d = 0.0377 - 0.00708

d = 0.0306 m

WILL GIVE BRAINLY!! PLEASE HELPP

The purpose of the machine is to leverage its mechanical advantage such that the force it outputs to move the heavy object is greater than the force required for you to input.

But there's no such thing as a free lunch! When you apply the conservation of energy, the work the machine does on the object will always be equal to (in an ideal machine) or less than the work you input to the machine.

This means that you will apply a lesser force for a longer distance so that the machine can supply a greater force on the object to push it a smaller distance. That is the trade-off of using the machine: it enables you to use a smaller force but at the cost of having to apply that smaller force for a greater distance.

The answer is: The work input required will equal the work output.

What is the answer I’m stuck on this one it’s a screenshot for the question
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

deceleration is the opposite of acceleration

Explanation:

We know that acceleration is the increase of speed with respect to time. So deceleration must be represented on the graph as a decrease in speed over time.a

Suppose that the half-life of an element is 1000 years. How many half-lives will it take before one-eighth of the original sampl
34kurt

Answer:

3

Explanation:

The half-life of a radioactive isotope is the time it takes for the mass of the sample to halve.

This can be rewritten as follows:

m(t) = m_0 (\frac{1}{2})^n

where

m(t) is the mass of the sample at time t

m0 is the original mass of the sample

n is the number of half-lives that passed

We see that if we take n=3, the amount of original sample left is

m(t) = m_0 (\frac{1}{2})^3 = m_0 (\frac{1}{8})

So 3 (3 half-lives) is the correct answer.

Show the equation of simple pendulum to be dimensionally consistent
nataly862011 [7]
T is in seconds (s) 

<span>2pi is dimensionless </span>

<span>L is in meters (m) </span>

<span>g is in meters per second squared (m/s^2) </span>

<span>so you can write the equation for the period of the simple pendulum in its units... </span>

<span>s=sqrt(m/(m/s^2)) </span>

<span>simplify</span>

<span>s=sqrt(m*s^2*1/m) cancelling the m's </span>

<span>s=sqrt(s^2) </span>

<span>s=s </span>

<span>therefore the dimensions on the left side of the equation are equal to the dimensions on the right side of the equation.</span>
