The question is defective. If her acceleration is 2.5 m/s/s, then her speed is 2.5 m FASTER each second, and she will never stop.

Two equally charged tiny spheres of mass 1.0 g are placed 2.0 cm apart. When released, they begin to accelerate away from each o

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

The magnitude of the charge on each sphere is 0.135 μC

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 1.0

Distance = 2.0 cm

Acceleration = 414 m/s²

We need to calculate the magnitude of charge

Using newton's second law

$F= ma$

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

Put the value of F

$a=\dfrac{kq^2}{mr^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$414=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times q^2}{1.0\times10^{-3}\times(2.0\times10^{-2})^2}$

$q^2=\dfrac{414\times1.0\times10^{-3}\times(2.0\times10^{-2})^2}{9\times10^{9}}$

$q^2=1.84\times10^{-14}$

$q=0.135\times10^{-6}\ C$

$q=0.135\ \mu C$

Hence, The magnitude of the charge on each sphere is 0.135μC.

1.what is gravity?(in your own words)

olga_2 [115]

Answer:

1.Gravity is an invisible force that pulls objects toward each other

2.The suns gravity pulls the planet towards the sun which changes the straight line of direction into a curve

That keeps the planet moving in an orbit around the sun

hope it helped:)

A worker pushes a box across the floor to the right at a constant speed with a force of 25N. What

icang [17]

Answer:

Friction between the box and the floor is 25N to the left

Explanation:

There are two forces acting on the box along the horizontal direction:

- The force of push applied by the worker, in the forward direction, F

- The force of friction, $F_f$ , acting in the opposite direction (backward)

So the net force acting on the box is

$F_{net}=F-F_f$

According to Newton's second law of motion, the net force on an object is equal to the product between its mass (m) and its acceleration (a), so we can write:

$F_{net}=ma$

And so

$F-F_f = ma$

However, in this case the box is moving at constant speed; this means that its acceleration is zero:

$a=0$

Therefore we have:

$F-F_f=0$

Which means

$F_f=F$

And since we are told that

$F=25 N$

This means that the force of friction is also 25 N:

$F_f=F=25 N$
