Total hours is 3.35 hours

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

convert 3 hours 21 minutes to decimal hours

We know:

1 hour = 60 minutes

and

1 minute = 60 seconds

1 minute = 1 / 60 hours

So,

21 minutes = $\frac{21}{60} hours$

= 0.35 hours

Total hours would be = 3 hours + 0.35 hours

= 3.35 hours

Therefore, total hours is 3.35 hours

When point charges q = +8.4 uC and q2 = +5.6 uC are brought near each other, each experiences a repulsive force of magnitude 0.6

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

it is separated by 80 cm distance

Explanation:

As per Coulombs law we know that force between two point charges is given by

$F = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}$

here we know that

$q_1 = +8.4\mu C$

$q_2 = +5.6 \mu C$

force between two charges is given as

$F = 0.66 N$

now we have

$F = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}$

$0.66 = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(8.4 \mu C)(5.6 \mu C)}{r^2}$

$r = 0.8 m$

so it is separated by 80 cm distance

Ryan is driving home from work and notices a deer leaping onto the road about 25 m in front of his car. He immediately applies t

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

mu = 0.56

Explanation:

The friction force is calculated by taking into account the deceleration of the car in 25m. This can be calculated by using the following formula:

$v^2=v_0^2+2ax\\$

v: final speed = 0m/s (the car stops)

v_o: initial speed in the interval of interest = 60km/h

= 60(1000m)/(3600s) = 16.66m/s

x: distance = 25m

BY doing a the subject of the formula and replace the values of v, v_o and x you obtain:

$a=\frac{v^2-v_o^2}{2x}=\frac{0m^2/s^2-(16.66m/s)^2}{2(25m)}=-5.55\frac{m}{s^2}$

with this value of a you calculate the friction force that makes this deceleration over the car. By using the Newton second's Law you obtain:

$F_f=ma=(1490kg)(5.55m/s^2)=8271.15N$

Furthermore, you use the relation between the friction force and the friction coefficient:

$F_f= \mu N=\mu mg\\\\\mu=\frac{F_f}{mg}=\frac{8271.15N}{(1490kg)(9.8m/s^2)}=0.56$

hence, the friction coefficient is 0.56

A 62 kg bungee jumper jumps from a bridge. She is tied to a bungee cord whose unstretched length is 12 m. She falls a total of 3

Andrew [12]

Answer:

k = 104.46 N/m

Explanation:

Here we can use energy conservation

so we will have

initial gravitational potential energy = final total spring potential energy

as we know that she falls a total distance of 31 m

while the unstretched length of the string is 12 m

so the extension in the string is given as

$x = L - L_o$

$x = 31 - 12 = 19 m$

so we have

$mgH = \frac{1}{2}kx^2$

$62(9.81)(31) = \frac{1}{2}k (19^2)$

$k = 104.46 N/m$

A parallel-plate capacitor has plates of area A. The plates are initially separated by a distance d, but this distance can be va

ohaa [14]

Answer:

d' = d /2

Explanation:

Given that

Distance = d

Voltage =V

We know that energy in capacitor given as

$U=\dfrac{1}{2}CV^2$

$C=\dfrac{\varepsilon _oA}{d}$

$U=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{\varepsilon _oA}{d}\times V^2$

If energy become double U' = 2 U then d'

$U'=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{\varepsilon _oA}{d'}\times V^2$

$2U=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{\varepsilon _oA}{d'}\times V^2$

$2\times \dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{\varepsilon _oA}{d}\times V^2=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{\varepsilon _oA}{d'}\times V^2$

2 d ' = d

d' = d /2

So the distance between plates will be half on initial distance.
