A key falls from a bridge that is 32 m above the water. It falls directly into a model boat, moving with constant velocity, that

was 11 m from the point of impact when the key was released. What is the speed of the boat?

Answer:

Speed of the boat, v = 4.31 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Height of the bridge, h = 32 m

The model boat is 11 m from the point of impact when the key was released, d = 11 m

Firstly, we will find the time needed for the boat to get in this position using second equation of motion as :

s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

Here, u = 0 and a = g

t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2s}{g}}

t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 32}{9.8}}

t = 2.55 seconds

Let v is the speed of the boat. It can be calculated as :

v=\dfrac{d}{t}

v=\dfrac{11\ m}{2.55\ s}

v = 4.31 m/s

So, the speed of the boat is 4.31 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

In a lab, a student drags a shoe across the floor at constant speed. If the coefficient of static friction between the floor and
Svetllana [295]
<span>B) 0.6 N
   I suspect you have a minor error in your question. Claiming a coefficient of static friction of 0.30N is nonsensical. Putting the Newton there is incorrect. The figure of 0.25 for the coefficient of kinetic friction looks OK. So with that correction in mind, let's solve the problem. The coefficient of static friction is the multiplier to apply to the normal force in order to start the object moving. And the coefficient of kinetic friction (which is usually smaller than the coefficient of static friction) is the multiplied to the normal force in order to keep the object moving. You've been given a normal force of 2N, so you need to multiply the coefficient of static friction by that in order to get the amount of force it takes to start the shoe moving. So: 0.30 * 2N = 0.6N And if you look at your options, you'll see that option "B" matches exactly.</span>

Identify the areas on the image where the force of repulsion is the least.​
aalyn [17]

Answer:

The central blue square in between the lower pair of magnet has the least force of repulsion.

Explanation:

We can explain this using the dual nature of magnets.

Each magnet must have two poles namely:

-North pole

-South pole

We assume that the magnetic lines of forces enters from south pole and leaves from the north pole.

When brought together, like poles repel each other while opposite poles attract each other.

In the picture, the lower two magnets have opposite poles facing each other, hence the force of repulsion is minimum there and the force of attraction is maximum.

A particle of charge Q is fixed at the origin of an xy coordinate system. At t = 0 a particle (m = 0.727 g, q = 2.73 µC is locat
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

Q = 12.466μC

Explanation:

For the particle to execute a circular motion, the electrostatic force must be equal to the centripetal force:

Fe = \frac{K*q*Q}{r^{2}} = \frac{m*V^{2}}{r}

Solving for Q:

Q = \frac{m*V^{2}*r}{K*q}

Taking special care of all units, we can calculate the value of the charge:

Q = 12.466μC
