An astronaut stands by the rim of a crater on the moon, where the acceleration of gravity is 1.62 m/. To determine the depth of

the crater, she drops a rock and measures the time it takes for it to hit the bottom. If the time is 6.3 s, what is the depth of the crater?

Answer;

=32.15 meters

Explanation;

Use the formula  

s= ut+ 0.5 a (t)^2 to find out 's'  

where s= distance traveled  

u=initial velocity which is zero in this case  

t= time taken to travel 's' distance  

a=acceleration (due to gravity on moon i.e 1.62 m/s^2 )  

Therefore;

S = 0.5 * 1.62 * 6.3 * 6.3

    = 32.1489 meters

Thus; the crater is 32.15 meters deep.

A positive charge of 18nC is evenly distributed along a straight rod of length 4.0 m that is bent into a circular arc with a rad
sergey [27]

Explanation:

Formula for angle subtended at the center of the circular arc is as follows.

           \theta = \frac{S}{r}

where,   S = length of the rod

              r = radius

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.      

                \theta = \frac{S}{r}

                             = \frac{4}{2}

                             = 2 radians (\frac{180^{o}}{\pi})

                             = 114.64^{o}

Now, we will calculate the charge density as follows.

                 \lambda = \frac{Q}{L}

                            = \frac{18 \times 10^{-9} C}{4 m}

                            = 4.5 \times 10^{-9} C/m

Now, at the center of arc we will calculate the electric field as follows.

                 E = \frac{2k \lambda Sin (\frac{\theta}{2})}{r}

                     = \frac{2(9 \times 10^{9} Nm^{2}/C^{2})(4.5 \times 10^{-9}) Sin (\frac{114.64^{o}}{2})}{2 m}

                      = 34.08 N/C

Thus, we can conclude that the magnitude of the electric eld at the center of curvature of the arc is 34.08 N/C.

Taya2010 [7]

Answer: The magnitude of the current in the second wire 2.67A

Explanation:

Here is the complete question:

Two straight parallel wires are separated by 7.0 cm. There is a 2.0-A current flowing in the first wire. If the magnetic field strength is found to be zero between the two wires at a distance of 3.0 cm from the first wire, what is the magnitude of the current in the second wire?

Lesechka [4]

Answer:4.21 \times 10^{-10} J/cm^4

1 kPa= 10^3 Pa

1 km=10^5 cm

1kPa/km=0.01 Pa/cm

1kPa/km=10^{-8} J/cm^4

\Rightarrow r= 0.0421 kPa/km= 0.0421 kPa/km \times \frac{10^{-8} J/cm^4}{1 kPa/km}= 0.0421 \times 10^{-8}J/cm^4=4.21 \times 10^{-10} J/cm^4
