Answer: 1.28 sec
Explanation:
Assuming that the glow following the collision was produced instantaneously, as the light propagates in a straight line from Moon to the Earth at a constant speed, we can get the time traveled by the light applying velocity definition as follows:
V = ∆x / ∆t
Solving for ∆t, we have:
∆t = ∆x/v = ∆x/c = 3.84 108 m / 3.8 108 m/s = 1.28 sec
The mass of ball a is twice the mass of ball b:

This means that the initial potential energy of ball a (

) is twice the potential energy of ball b (

):

When the two balls reach the ground, the potential energy of each ball has converted into kinetic energy (since now their altitude is h=0), because the total mechanical energy of each ball must be conserved. Therefore:


and so the kinetic energy of ball a must be twice the kinetic energy of ball b:
Answer:
1 = 5.4 J
2 = 0.1979 C
3 = 5
Explanation:
Energy in a capacitor, E is
E = 1/2 * C * V²
E = 1/2 * 3000*10^-6 * 60²
E = 1/2 * 3000*10^-6 * 3600
E = 1/2 * 10.8
E = 5.4 J
E = Q²/2C = 6.53 J
E * 2C = Q²
Q² = 6.53 * 2 * 3000*10^-6
Q² = 13.06 * 3000*10^-6
Q² = 0.03918
Q = √0.03918
Q = 0.1979 C
The Capacitor, C is inversely proportional to the distance of separation, D. Thus, if D is increased by 5 to be 5D, then C would be C/5. And therefore, our energy stored in the capacitor is increased by a factor of 5.
