C. 2-

electrons have a negative charge, thus adding two electrons to an atom will give it a charge of 2 times -1 or -2

A physicist found that a force of 1.32 N was measured between two charged spheres. The distance between the spheres was 95 cm. C
labwork [276]

The electric force (and the gravitational force too) is inversely proportional
to the square of the distance between the objects involved.

In this question, the distance is increased by a factor of  (1.25/0.95) .

So the electric force will change by the factor of  (0.95/1.25)² .

The new force is

           (1.32 N) · (0.95/1.25)²  =  0.762... newton   (rounded)

ListenA person weighing 6.0 × 102 newtons rides an elevator upward at an average speed of 3.0 meters per second for 5.0 seconds.
pychu [463]

Answer:

(d) 9 × 10^{3] J

Explanation:

from the question we are given the following:

weight of the man = 6.0 × 10 ^ {2} N

average speed (v) = 3 m/s

time (t) = 3 s

potential energy (U) = ?

We can calculate the increase in potential energy of the man by applying the formula below

increase in potential energy = P₂ - P₁

where

  • P₁ is the initial potential energy
  • P₂ is the final potential energy
  • Potential energy = mass x acceleration due to gravity x height

From physic we know that weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity

  • We should take note that the distance in this case is also our height, and we can get it from the formula distance = velocity x time
  • Distance = 3 x 5 = 15 meters
  • Initial potential energy P₁ is zero because the person was initially in motion and potential energy is the energy at rest.

therefore

potential energy = 6.0 × 10 ^ {2} × 15 = 9 × 10^{3] J

After watching this video, Blake, a student in an introductory physics class, makes the following claim: The acceleration and ve
Maru [420]

Answer:

Please see below as the answer is self- explanatory.

Explanation:

  • Any time that an object changes direction  (from leftward to rightwward, or from upward to downward) the velocity must be zero just for one instant, when is on the verge of changing the direction.
  • This  is needed because velocity changes as a continuous function of time, so it needs to cross the t-axis when passing from positive to negative or vice versa.
  • However, the claim that in the moment that velocity is zero, the acceleration is also zero, is false.
  • Due to acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, and velocity is a vector, this means at any time there is a change of direction, there is an acceleration that is non-zero.
  • For example, when an object that has been thrown upward, reaches to its maximum height, just one instant before starting to fall, the velocity becomes zero, but the acceleration (which causes the object to fall) is non-zero, due to it's the acceleration due to gravity.
