Technological advances clearly.

Theories change due to other peoples view on the matter and how they experiment with it, but Technology advancements are the greatest factor of all. I mean seriously, we wouldn't know of cells before the microscope and when they first invented it, it advanced further and now we can see things on a whole deeper lever.

An electron (q=-1.602×10-19C) is placed .03m away from spherical object with a net charge of -7.2 C.
vovangra [49]

Answer:

Explanation:

electric field at the location of electron

= 9 x 10⁹ x 7.2 / .03²

= 72 x 10¹² N/C

force on electron = electric field x charge on electron

= 72 x 10¹² x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹

= 115.2 x 10⁻⁷ N .

C )

work done = charge on electron x potential difference at two points

potential at .03 m

= 9 x 10⁹ x 7.2 / .03

= 2.16 x 10¹² V

potential at .001 m

= 9 x 10⁹ x 7.2 / .001

= 64.8 x 10¹² V

potential difference = (64.8 - 2.16 )x 10¹² V

= 62.64 x 10¹² V  .

work done = 62.64 x 10¹² x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹

= 100.224 x 10⁻⁷ J .

D )

There will be no change in the magnitude of force on positron except that the direction of force will be reversed . In case of electron , there will be repulsion and in case of positron , there will be attraction .

Work done in case of electron will be positive and work done in case of positron will be negative .

electric field due to charge will be same in both the cases .

The forces in (Figure 1) are acting on a 1.0 kg object.What is ax , the x -component of the object's acceleration
a_sh-v [17]

The x -component of the object's acceleration is 2 m/s².

<h3>What's the resultant force along x- direction?</h3>
  • Forces along x axis direction are as follows
  1. 4N along +x axis, so it's taken as +4 N
  2. 2N along -x axis , so it's taken as -2N.
  • Resultant force along x direction = 4N - 2N = 2 N which is along + ve x direction.

<h3>What's the acceleration along x axis direction?</h3>
  • As per Newton's second law, Force = mass × acceleration of the object
  • Force along x axis= mass × acceleration along x axis= 2N
  • Acceleration = 2/ mass = 2/1 = 2 m/s²

Thus, we can conclude that the acceleration along x axis is 2 m/s².

What is the relationship among
lawyer [7]
The bigger the object the greater the gravitational pull, so the farther away the big object is its gravitational force begins to decrease. Refer to the picture for more explanation.

A sound wave has a frequency of 247 Hz and a wavelength of 1.4 m. What is the speed of the sound wave in air?
zavuch27 [327]
The speed of sound through air at room temperature is almost always 343 m/s. However, since it doesn't tell you that, use the equation wavelength=velocity/frequency. Plug in the numbers: 1.4=v/247, and v=345.8 m/s.
