Of course. You've certainly heard that energy is conserved, period. Why would you think it's different when a ball falls to the ground ? ?

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

5.7 x 10^12 C

Explanation:

Let the charge on earth and moon is q.

mass of earth, Me = 5.972 x 10^24 kg

mass of moon, Mm = 7.35 x 10^22 kg

Let d be the distance between earth and moon.

the gravitational force between them is

F_{g}=G\frac{M_{e} \times M_{m}}{d^{2}}

The electrostatic force between them is

F_{e}=\frac{Kq^{2}}{d^{2}}

According to the question

1 % of Fg = Fe

0.01 \times 6.67\times10^{-11}\frac{5.97 \times 10^{24}\times7.35 \times 10^{22}}{d^{2}}=9 \times 10^{9}\frac{q^{2}}{d^{2}}

2.927 \times 10^{35}=9 \times10^{9}q^{2}

3.25 \times 10^{25}=q^{2}

q = 5.7 x 10^12 C

Thus, the charge on earth and the moon is 5.7 x 10^12 C.

Early black-and-white television sets used an electron beam to draw a picture on the screen. The electrons in the beam were acce
oee [108]

Answer:

3.25 × 10^7 m/s

Explanation:

Assuming the electrons start from rest, their final kinetic energy is equal to the electric potential energy lost while moving through the potential difference (ΔV)

Ek = 1/2 mv2 = qΔV .................. 1

Given that V is the electron speed in m/s

Charge of electron = 1.60217662 × 10-19 coulombs

Mass of electron = 9.109×10−31 kilograms

ΔV = 3.0kV = 3000V

Make V the subject of the formula in eqaution 1

V = sqr root 2qΔV/m

V = 2 × 1.60217662 × 10-19 × 3000 / 9.109×10−31

V = 3.25 × 10^7 m/s

A world-class sprinter can burst out of the blocks to essentially top speed (of about 11.5 m/s) in the first 15.0 m of the race.
wolverine [178]
Given:
u = 0, initial speed (sprinter starts from rest)
v = 11.5 m/s, final speed
s = 15 m, distance traveled to attain final speed.

Let
a =  average acceleration,
t = time taken to attain final speed.

Then
v² = u² + 2as
or
(11.5 m/s)² = 2*(a m/s²)*(15 m)
a = 11.5²/(2*15) = 4.408 m/s²

Also
v = u +a t
or
(11.5 m/s) = (4.408 m/s²)*(t s)
t = 11.5/4.408 = 2.609 s

Answer:
The average acceleration is 4.41 m/s² (nearest hundredth).
The time required is 2.61 s (nearest hundredth).
