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.

Three liters (3000 cm3) of oil is spilled onto a smooth lake. If the oil spreads out uniformly until it makes a circular oil sli

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

4.38 km

Explanation:

Volume of oil slick, V = Area of oil slick, A × thickness of 1 molecule, d'

Since the oil slick spreads out in a circular area, it has the area of a circle.

So, V = πd²/4 × d'

d² = 4V/πd'

d = 2√(V/πd') where d = diameter of oil slick.

Since V = 3000 cm³ = 3000 × 10⁻⁶ m³ = 3 × 10⁻³ m³ and d' = 2 × 10⁻¹⁰ m

So, d = 2√(3 × 10⁻³ m³/(π × 2 × 10⁻¹⁰ m))

= 2√(3 × 10⁻³ m³/(6.283 × 10⁻¹⁰ m))

= 2√(0.477 × 10⁷ m²) = 2√(4.775 × 10⁶ m²)

= 2 × 2.19 × 10³ m

= 4.38 × 10³ m

= 4.38 km

Is the force of gravity stronger on a piece of crumpled paper or a normal piece of flat paper?

GaryK [48]

Yes, because a crumpled piece of paper has more center mass, allowing it to fall faster.

The rectangular plates in a parallel-plate capacitor are 0.063 m × 5.4 m. A distance of 3.5 × 10–5 m separates the plates. The p

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

capacitance of the capacitor = 0.18 μ F

Explanation:

Area of the plate A = 0.063 m x 5.4 m = 0.3402 m²

distance between the plate d = 3.5 × 10–5 m

dielectric value for Teflon K = 2.1

capacitance of capacitor = ?

Formula for capacitance of parallel plate is as follows ,

$C= \frac{K\epsilon_0 A}{d}$ (Where $\epsilon_0 = 8.82 \times 10^-12\ \frac{F}{m}$ )

putting the values in the equation,

C = $\frac{2.1\times8.82\times10^-12\times0.3402 }{3.5\times10^-5}$ $=0.18\times 10^-6$ =0.18 μ F
