Answer:

q = Q/2

option c is correct

Explanation:

given data

charge = Q

distance r = 1 m

charge = q

to find out

what should q be

solution

we have given charge q is remove so

q1 = Q-q

q2 = q

we know by coulombs law force

force = kq1q2 / r²   .............1

put here value and we know k is constant

F = k (Q-q) q / 1

now take derivative charge q and put = 0

dF/dq = k d(Q-q)q / dq

so  k (Q-q)q =0

Q = 2q

q = Q/2

so option c is correct

A force of 1.200×103 N pushes a man on a bicycle forward. Air resistance pushes against him with a force of 615 N. If he starts
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

15.45 m/s

Explanation:

F = 1.2 x 10^3 N, Fk = 615 N, u = 0, s = 25 m

Let the speed after traveling 25 m is v.

mass = F / g = 1200 / 9.8 = 122.45 kg

Net force, Fnet = 1.2 x 1000 - 615 = 1200 - 615 = 585 N

acceleration = Fnet / mass = 585 / 122.45 = 4.78 m/s^2

Use third equation of motion

v^2 = u^2 + 2 a s

v^2 = 0 + 2 x 4.78 x 25 = 238.88

v = 15.45 m/s

Please help correct answering get 20 points (physical science btw )
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Acceleration = 3.67 m/s²

Explanation:

In physics, acceleration can be defined as the rate of change of the velocity of an object with respect to time.

This simply means that, acceleration is given by the subtraction of initial velocity from the final velocity all over time.

Hence, if we subtract the initial velocity from the final velocity and divide that by the time, we can calculate an object’s acceleration.

Mathematically, acceleration is given by the equation;

Acceleration (a) = \frac{final \; velocity  -  initial \; velocity}{time}

Given the following data;

Initial velocity, u = 5 m/s

Final velocity, v = 27

Time, t = 6

To find the acceleration;

Acceleration = (v - u)/t

Acceleration = (27 - 5)/6

Acceleration = 22/6

Acceleration = 3.67 m/s²

The gravitational force between two objects increases as
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

Option C.

The gravitational force between two objects is proportional to the product of their mass and inversely proportional to the distance between the two masses.

The formula of the gravitational force F_g between two objects of mass m_1 and m_2 that are separated by a distance r is:

F_g = G\frac{m_1m_2}{r^2}

Where G is the gravitation constant.

You can see that as the masses increase, it also increases the gravitational force. But as the distance between the masses increases, the gravitational force decreases.

Therefore the correct option is the C "mass increases or distance decreases"

According to Dr. Ridel's Levels of Critical Thinking in Chapter 1, what level of critical thinking applies to your current statu
Karolina [17]

The levels of critical thinking classify people into six categories depending on their ability to reflect.

<h3>What is critical thinking?</h3>

This refers to the ability to analyze information, situations, etc. as well as apply, synthesize or evaluate the information learned.

<h3>What are the levels?</h3>

According to Dr. Ridel, the levels are:

  • Unreflective thinking: They do not reflect on information and lack the skills to have critical thinking.
  • Challenged thinker: This person knows critical thinking is important but has difficulties to have critical thinking.
  • Practicing thinker: This person has better-thinking abilities.
  • Advanced thinker: This person can critically think and has the skills to improve this process.
  • Master thinker: This person is in control of this process and shows superior thinking abilities.

What is the mass of the 40 kg object on the moon?
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

6.64 Newtons

On the moon that 40 kg child would have a weight of 6.64 Newtons (kg multiplied by gravity) because the moon's gravity is 1/6th of the Earth's gravity. Your mass on any planet on the solar system (Jupiter, Venus, Earth, or anywhere else) is the same because the amount of matter in you does not change.
