a) Making h as the shorter cathetus, we have,

h=1.8*sin10=0.312

We proceed to calculate the work done by gravity

W_g=-mgh

W_g=-140*0.312=-43.76J

b) It's necessary to calculate the Kinetic Energy, we use the equation of KE,

\Delta KE = \frac{1}{2}m(v_2^2-v_1^2)

\Delta KE = \frac{1}{2}14(1.5^2-0.5^2)=14J

c) By work energy theorem

W_{net}=\Delta KE \rightarrow W_net = 14J

d) we calculate net work through the law of conservation

W_{net}=W_f+W_g=14

\rightarrow W_f = 14-W_g=14-(-43.76)

W_f=57.76J

A spherical shell of radius 9.0 cm carries a uniform surface charge density σ= 9.0 nC/m2. The electric field at r= 9.1 cm is app
maria [59]

Answer:

995.12 N/C

Explanation:

R = 9 cm = 0.09 m

σ = 9 nC/m^2 = 9 x 10^-9 C/m^2

r = 9.1 cm = 0.091 m

q = σ x 4π R² = 9 x 10^-9 x 4 x 3.14 x 0.09 x 0.09 = 9.156 x 10^-10 C

E = kq / r^2

E = ( 9 x 10^9 x 9.156 x 10^-10) / (0.091 x 0.091)

E = 995.12 N/C

If eight water waves pass an ocean buoy each minute, and successive wave crests are 20 m apart, find the wave speed:____________
Llana [10]

Answer:

The wave speed is calculated below:

Explanation:

Given,

number of waves passed per minute = 8

time period = 1 minute = 60 s

distance between successive wave crests = 20 m

waves passing interval per second = \frac{8}{60} s^{-1}

Now,

wave speed = 20 m × \frac{8}{60} s^{-1}

                     = \frac{8}3} m/s

                     = 2.67 m/s

Hence the wave speed is 2.67 m/s.
