Answer:

The force will be 54.0 units

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electrostatic force between two charged objects is given by Coulomb's Law:

F=\frac{kq_1 q_2}{r^2}

where

k is Coulomb's constant

q1, q2 are the magnitude of the two charges

r is the separation between the two charges

From the equation, we see that the magnitude of the force is directly proportional to the charge of object 2:

F\propto q_2

In this problem, the initial force between the two objects is

F = 18.0 N

And so, when the charge on object 2 is tripled,

q_2'=3q_2

The new electrostatic force will be

F'\propto q_2' = (3q_2) = 3F

So, the force will also triple: since the original force was 18.0 units, the new force will be

F'=3F=3(18.0)=54.0

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

i) 0.7

ii) 1.39

iii) 0.6

Next time, when compiling a Physics question, ensure you put the unit of each measurement.

Explanation:

i) T = time of flight =   \frac{2uSin(A)}{g}

where u = speed = 4, A = 60 and  g = acceleration due to gravity = 10 (It is a constant);

Subsituting the values, we have: T = \frac{2(4)Sin(60)}{10} = 0.7

ii) distance travel = Range =  R = \frac{u^{2}Sin(2A) }{g}

where u = speed = 4, A = 60 and  g = acceleration due to gravity = 10 (It is a constant);

Subsituting values, we have: R = \frac{4^{2}Sin(2*60) }{10} = 1.39

iii) Maximum Height = H = \frac{u^{2}(Sin(A))^{2}  }{2g}

where u = speed = 4, A = 60 and  g = acceleration due to gravity = 10 (It is a constant);

Subsituting values, we have: \frac{4^{2}(Sin60)^{2}  }{2*10} = 0.6

An object is moving with the speed of light around the Earth. How much time will it take to complete one round trip along the eq
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

0.14 seconds

Explanation:

The speed of light in vacuum is approximately 3.0*10^8. The distance that would be covered by the object would be equivalent to the circumference of the cross-section of the earth on the equator.

Circumference = 2\pi*6400000 =4.02*10^7

Time = distance/speed = 4.2*10^7 / 3.0*10^8 =0.14s

An object is held at rest and allowed to drop How far does the object fall in 3.3 seconds?
IgorC [24]
After x seconds, an object will fall \frac{1}{2}at^2 where a is acceleration due to gravity and t is time

so when t=3.3
the distance it will fall is (\frac{1}{2})(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})(3.3m)^2=53.361m
it will fal 53.361 meters
