Answer:

The force of gravity is acting on the acorn.

A frictional drag force is acting on the acorn.

The net force on the acorn is less than the force of gravity.

Explanation:

The force of gravity is acting on the acorn is in vertically downwards direction.

A frictional drag force is acting on the acorn is in vertically upwards direction.

The net force on the acorn is given by

Net force = Force of gravity - Frictional drag force

It is always less than the force of gravity.

two circular plates, each with a radius of 8.22 cm, have equal and opposite charges of magnitude 3.052 μc. calculate the electri
PtichkaEL [24]

If the separation distance is doubled, then the electric field decreases by a factor of 4.

<h3>What is the electric field strength?</h3>

We know that the electric field strength is known to depend on the magnitude of the charge and the distance of separation. We know that the electric field refers to the region in which the influence of a charge is felt. Recall that a charge is a specie that is positively or negatively charged. The charge on a specie must always be shown by its sign.

We know that the electric field is the region in space where the influence of a charge can be felt. If a charge is placed in the vicinity of another charge, the second charge would experience a force due to the presence of the first charge. This is because the second charge was brought into the electric field of the first charge.

Thus we know that;

E = Kq/r^2

Where;

E = electric field strength

q = magnitude of charge

r = distance of separation

Now;

E = 9.0* 10^9 * 3.052 * 10^-6/(8.22 * 10^-2)^2

E = 4 N/C

Given that the electric filed strength is inversely proportional to the distance of separation, when the distance between the charges is doubled, the electric field decreases by a factor of 4.

What physical property makes the red light different from blue light, or radio waves different from microwaves?​
inna [77]

Only their wavelength does.

Blue light waves have only roughly half the wavelength of red light waves, and the so-called "microwaves" are the radio waves with the shortest wavelengths.

A trapeze artist swings in simple harmonic motion with a period of 3.8 s.
pogonyaev
As we know that time period of simple pendulum is given as

T = 2π √L/g

here we know that

T = 3.8 s

now from above equation we know that

T² = 4π² (L/g)

now on rearranging the above equation we will have

L = gT² / 4π²

now plug in all data into it

L = (9.8) (3.8)² / (4) (3.14)²

so the length of the cable must be 3.6 m
