Answer: electric field

Explanation: when a charge is placed in space, it alters the space around it by creating an electric field.

This electric field has the ability to exert a force (f) on any test charge(q) placed within this vicinity.

This is the reason why a charge can either attract or repel another charge.

If the pendulum is brought on the moon where the gravitational acceleration is about g/6, approximately what will its period now
Andru [333]

Answer:

The new period will be √6 *T

Explanation:

period ,T=2π√(L/g)       ................equation 1

where T is the period on earth

gravitational acceleration on the moon is g/6

T1 = 2π√[L/(g/6)]

T1=2π√(6L/g)               ...............equation 2

divide equation 2 by 1

T1/T =2π√(6L/g)÷2π√(L/g)

T1/T =√(6L/L)

T1/T =√6

T1 = √6 *T

The length of a football field is closest to<br> (1) 1000 cm (3) 1000 km<br> (2) 1000 dm (4) 1000 mm
Sergeu [11.5K]

For this case, the first thing you should know is that the length of a football field is around 100 meters.

We must then look for a measure close to this value.

We have the following unit conversion:

1 meter = 10 decimeters

Applying the conversion we have:

(1000 dm)*(\frac{1}{10} \frac{m}{dm}) = 100 m

Therefore, the measure closest to a soccer field is:

1000 dm

Answer:

The length of a football field is closest to:

(2) 1000 dm

A boy slides a book across the floor using a force of five and over a distance of 2M what is the kinetic energy of the book afte
Alinara [238K]

Answer: 10Nm or 10J

Explanation:

Given the following :

Force (f) = 5

Distance (d) = 2m

Calculate the kinetic energy assuming no friction

Work done = force × distance

Work done = 5N × 2m = 10Nm

Recall :

Work done = ΔK.E ( change in kinetic energy)

Therefore, kinetic energy of the book after sliding = ΔK. E, which is equal to work done.

Hence, K. E of book after sliding is 10Nm

Can someone help me?!!!!!
kramer

Answer:

Parabola

Explanation:

The motion of a projectile consists of two independent motions:

- A uniform motion along the horizontal (x) direction, with constant velocity v_x. In fact, there are no forces acting along this direction (if we neglect air resistance), so the acceleration is zero and the velocity is constant

- An uniformly accelerated motion along the vertical (y) direction, with constant acceleration g=9.8 m/s^2 downward (acceleration due to gravity). This acceleration is due to the force of gravity that pulls the projectile downward.

The composition of these two motions gives a parabolic trajectory. In fact, the equations of the motion along the two directions are:

x(t) = v_x t (1)

y(t) = h + v_y t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2 (2)

Solving for t in eq.(1),

t=\frac{x}{v_x}

and substituting into (2)

y(t) = h + \frac{v_y}{v_x}x - \frac{1}{2}g(\frac{x}{v_x})^2

which is the equation of a parabola.

If the distance between two objects decrease and the masses of the objects remain the same, then the force of gravity between the two objects

<u>Answer:</u>

increases

Explanation:

The formula of gravitational force is given as:

F=G Mm/r^2

G = gravitational constant

M, m = Masses of two different objects in which the force is acting.

r = distance between both the objects.

As we can see from the formula that the force of gravity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between both objects.

When the distance between both objects with the same masses decreases the gravitational force between them increases. Hence the correct answer is option B.
