Answer:

Area=0.05 $m^{2}$

Explanation:

Given pressure=5000 Pa

and weight=250 N

Using equation

Pressure=Force/Area

So,Area=Force/pressure

Area=250/5000

Area=0.05 $m^{2}$

Two equal charges with magnitude Q and Q experience a force of 12.3442 when held at a distance r. What is the force between two

Pepsi [2]

Answer:197.504 N

Explanation:

Given

Two Charges with magnitude Q experience a force of 12.344 N

at distance r

and we know Electrostatic force is given

$F=\frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}$

$F=\frac{kQ\cdot Q}{r^2}$

$F=\frac{kQ^2}{r^2}$

Now the magnitude of charge is 2Q and is at a distance of $\frac{r}{2}$

$F'=\frac{k2Q\cdot 2Q}{\frac{r^2}{2^2}}$

F'=16F

F'=197.504 N

A truck is carrying a refrigerator as shown in the figure. The height of the refrigerator is 158.0 cm, the width is 60.0 cm. The

Arada [10]

The maximum acceleration the truck can have so that the refrigerator does not tip over is 4.15 m/s².

<h3>What will be the maximum acceleration of the truck to avoid tipping over?</h3>

The maximum acceleration is obtained by taking clockwise moments about the tipping point of rotation.

Clockwise moment = Anticlockwise moment

Ft * 1.58 m = F * 0.67 m

where

Ft is tipping force = mass * acceleration, a
F is weight = mass * acceleration due to gravity, g

m * a * 1.58 = m * 9.81 * 0.67

a = 4.15 m/s²

The maximum acceleration the truck can have so that the refrigerator does not tip over is 4.15 m/s².

In conclusion, the acceleration of the truck is found by taking moments about the tipping point.

How many seconds of space should you keep between you if you're driving a 100 foot truck 30 mph?

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

 The space in seconds that will be kept = 2.27 seconds

Explanation:

S = d/t..................... Equation 1

making t the subject of formula in the equation above,

t = d/S.................... Equation 2

Where S = speed, d = distance, t = time.

Conversion: (i)if 1 mph = 0.44704 m/s,

then, 30 mph = 30×0.44704

= 13.41 m/s

(ii) If 1 foot = 0.3048 m

then, 100 foot = 30.48 m.

Given: S = 30 mph = 13.41 m/s, d = 100 foot = 30.48 m

Substituting these values into equation 2

t = 30.48/13.41

t = 2.27 seconds.

Therefore the space in seconds that will be kept = 2.27 seconds
