Two spherical drops of mercury each have a charge of 0.10 nC and a potential of 300 V at the surface. The two drops merge to for
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

V = 228\ V

Explanation:

given,

charge of two spherical drop = 0.1 nC

potential at the surface = 300 V

two drops merge to form a single drop

potential at the surface of new drop = ?

V = \dfrac{kq}{r}

r = \dfrac{9\times 10^9\times 0.1 \times 10^{-9}}{300}

r = 0.003 m

volume = 2 \times \dfac{4}{3}\pi r^3

            = 2 \times \dfac{4}{3}\pi \times 0.003^3

            = 2.612 × 10⁻⁷ m³

\dfac{4}{3}\pi R^3 = 2.612\times 10^{-7}

R =\sqrt[3]{\dfrac{2.612 \times 10^{-7}\times 3}{4\times \pi}}

R = 0.00396 m

V = \dfrac{kq}{r}

V = \dfrac{9\times 10^9 \times 0.1 \times 10^{-9}}{0.00396}

V = 227.27

V = 228\ V

A 35 n object is on a 25 degree incline. the force of friction up the incline is 8.0 N.
luda_lava [24]
The downwards component of weight of the object would be 35sin25 degrees = 14.8

F=14.8 - 8 = 6.8 N                                         m= 35/9.8= 3.57 kg
F=mA
Therefore,
3.57A= 6.8 N
=> A= 6.8/3.57
=> A= 1.902 ms^-2


F(max)= (U)R                       where (U)= coefficient of friction
                                                   and R= Normal reaction force

R= 35cos25
   = 31.72 N
Since, F(max)= 8
          8= (U)* 31.72
      =>(U)= 8/31.72
      =>(U)= 0.25

Two blocks with a mass of 2 kg collide in an elastic collision. The initial velocity of Block 1 is 10 m/s. Block 2 is traveling
pentagon [3]

Answer:

p = 20 kg•m/s

KE = 100 J

Explanation:

In an elastic collision of identical masses, the two masses will exchange momentums. Therefore Block 1 initially moving at 10 m/s will be moving at 2 m/s, and Block 2 will go from 2 m/s to 10 m/s

momentum = mv = 2(10) = 20 kg•m/s

KE = ½mv² = ½(2)10² = 100 J

How can two machines appear identical and yet not have the same actual mechanical advantage
STatiana [176]
There are many factors which contributes as to how a machine will be processing the input energy and convert it to output energy. Even with identical mechanism, these factors will have major effect on the output. Some factors are deflection, friction and wear. Some system maybe exposed to poor lubrication than the other which'll produce more friction and wear thus lower mechanical advantage.
