<u>Given data:</u>

mass of oil  = 2 × 10¹⁴ kg,

charge (q)   = 8 × 10⁻¹⁸ C

drop is stationery between two parallel plates

and plates are at a distance of (d) = 20 mm

                                                        = 0.020 m,

Calculate potential difference (V) = ?

We know that the potential difference

                                  V = E.d Volts

                        Where

                                   d = distance between plates in meters

                                    E = electric field in N/C

                                      = m.g/q

                                    q = charge in coulombs

                                    m = mass in kg

Lets find out  

<em>                         E = m.g/q</em>  N/C

                           = (2 × 10¹⁴ × 9.8)/ 8×10⁻¹⁸    N/C

                           =  2.45 ×10³² N/C

 Now calculating V = E.d

                                 = 2.45 ×10³² × 0.020

                                 = 4.9  ×10³⁰ volts

<em>The potential difference is 4.9  ×10³⁰ volts</em>

1.)A tank travels at a rate of 10.0 km/hr for 12.00 minutes, then at 15.0 km/hr for 8.00
rosijanka [135]

12.00 min = 0.2 hr

8.00 min = 0.15 hr

Total distance:

(10.0 km/hr) (0.2 hr) + (15.0 km/hr) (0.15 hr) + (20.0 km/hr) (0.2 hr)

= 8.25 km

Average speed:

(10.0 km/hr + 15.0 km/hr + 20.0 km/hr) / 3

= 15 km/hr

Change in position:

(10.0 km/hr) (0.2 hr) + (15.0 km/hr) (0.15 hr) - (20.0 km/hr) (0.2 hr)

= 0.25 km

Average velocity:

(10.0 km/hr + 15.0 km/hr - 20.0 km/hr) / 3

≈ 1.67 m/s

A firecracker in a coconut blows the coconut into three pieces. two pieces of equal mass fly off south and west, perpendicular t
netineya [11]
Here we have mass that moves at ceratin speed. This means that we have momentum. The law that must be observed is law of conservation of momentum. It states that momentum before certain event is equal to a momentum after that event. Here we have three masses so we can write this as:
m_{1}  v_{1i} + m_{2}  v_{2i} + m_{3}  v_{3i} = m_{1}  v_{1f} + m_{2}  v_{2f} + m_{3}  v_{3f}
Before the firecracker blows a coconut does not move, so left side is equal to 0:
0 = m_{1} v_{1f} + m_{2} v_{2f} + m_{3} v_{3f}

We know that m1=m2=m and m3=2m. Also we are asked to find v3f so we can rewrite formula:
v_{3f} = -  \frac{m_{1}  v_{1f}  + m_{2} v_{2f} }{ m_{3} }

We must take in consideration that two parts with same mass do not move in same direction. The center of mass of these two parts moves between them at angle of 45° with respect to both south and west. The speed of a center of mass is:
v_{f} = \sqrt{ v_{1f}^{2}+ v_{2f}^{2} } \\ \\ v_{f} = 33.9m/s
This speed we can insert into formula for v3f:
v_{3f} = - \frac{m*33.9+m*33.9 }{ 2m } \\  \\ v_{3f} = - \frac{2m*33.9 }{ 2m }  \\  \\ v_{3f} = - 33.9m/s

We can see that part of a coconut with biggest mass has same speed as center of mass of two other parts. Negative sign shows that direction is opposite to direction of two pats. Biggest part moves towards north-east.

A man pushes a 10kg box with a constant acceleration of 5m/s2. What force is applied to the box?
drek231 [11]
FORMULA

\boxed {F = m \times a}

F = force
m = mass
a = acceleration

Using the formula

F = 10 \times 5

Multiply

\boxed {\textsf {F = 10 N}}
