In this problem, the 2.0 nC charges both act forces of equal magnitude on the 1.0 nC charge. Since there x-components are equal but opposite, they cancel out and only the y-components remain and add up. This can be used then to calculate for the magnitude of the total electrostatic force.

F = 2 * q1 * q2 / 4 / pi / eps_0 / r^2 * sqrt(3) / 2
F = 2 * 1.0e-9 * 2.0e-9 / 4 / pi / 8.854e-12 / (1.0e-2)^2 * sqrt(3) / 2
F = 3.11e-4 N

Answer:

1) The temperature will be closer to water

2) T = 68.239°C

3) T = 72.142°C

4) T = 69.266 °C

Explanation:

The temperature will be closer to water because the heat capacity of water > heat capacity of coffee.

137(1.089)(T - 23.8) = 137(4.186)(79.8 - T)

⇒(1.089)(T - 23.8) = (4.186)(79.8 - T)

⇒1.089 T - 25.9182 = 334.0428 - 4.186 T

⇒1.089 T + 4.186 T = 334.0428 + 25.9182

⇒5.275 T = 359.961

⇒ T = 68.239°C

137(1.089)(T - 23.8) = 225(4.186)(79.8 - T)

⇒(149.193)(T - 23.8) = (941.85)(79.8 - T)

⇒149.193 T - 3550.7934 = 75159.63 - 941.85 T

⇒149.193 T + 941.85 T = 75159.63 + 3550.7934

⇒1091.043 T = 78710.4234

⇒ T = 72.142°C

137(1.089)(T - 23.8) + 11.7(4.186)(T - 5.2)= 225(4.186)(79.8 - T)

⇒(149.193)(T - 23.8) + 48.9762(T - 5.2) = (941.85)(79.8 - T)

⇒149.193 T - 3550.7934 + 48.9762 T - 254.67624= 75159.63 - 941.85 T

⇒149.193 T + 941.85 T + 48.9762 T = 75159.63 + 3550.7934 + 254.67624

⇒1091.043 T + 48.9762 T = 78710.4234 + 254.67624

⇒1140.0192 T = 78965.09964

⇒ T = 69.266 °C

Answer:

B. Acceleration in the direction of motion speeds you up

Explanation:

Acceleration is defined as when something gains speed. For example, when a car speeds up. Deceleration is when the car slows down, and looses speed. When defining these terms, think of a car going faster, then slowing down at a red light.

Please help me with this question

Oksanka [162]

Car at rest:

velocity= 0m/s

Acceleration:

0.2m/s²

Since total time:

3 min = 180s

Formula of acceleration:

acceleration = [final velocity - initial velocity] ÷ [total time]

Velocity at end:

0.2m/s² = [final velocity - 0m/s] ÷ [180s]

0.2m/s² × 180s = [final velocity]

[final velocity] = 36m/s

Distance travelled:

Velocity = displacement(distance) ÷ time

36m/s = displacement(distance) ÷ 180s

displacement(distance) = 36m/s × 180s

displacement(distance) = 6480m

Hey I'm sorry but i do not understand why the answer on your worksheet for distance travelled is 3240m... its half of what my answer is...

The gold foil experiment led to the conclusion that each atom in the foil was composed mostly of empty space because most alpha

katovenus [111]

Answer:

(1) passed through the foil

Explanation:

Ernest Rutherford conducted an experiment using an alpha particle emitter projected towards a gold foil and the gold foil was surrounded by a fluorescent screen which glows upon being struck by an alpha particle.

When the experiment was conducted he found that most of the alpha particles went away without any deflection (due to the empty space) glowing the fluorescent screen right at the point of from where they were emitted.

While a few were deflected at reflex angle because they were directed towards the center of the nucleus having the net effective charge as positive.

And some were acutely deflected due to the field effect of the positive charge of the proton inside the nucleus. All these conclusions were made based upon the spot of glow on the fluorescent screen.

If you hold your hand over a pot of boiling water, it feels hot. Explain how the boiling water is transforming heat to your hand

MakcuM [25]

I don't no if this helps but the body heat from your hand causes the liquid to boil, which in turn makes the liquid evaporate, turning it to gas. The expanding gas pushes the liquid upwards and when you release your hand, equilibrium is re-established.
