Answer:

5. Quadruple

Explanation:

The electrostatic force between two charged particles is given by:

F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q1, q2 are the two charges

r is the separation between the charges

If the distance between the charges is reduced to half,

r' = \frac{r}{2}

So the new force will be

F'=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{(r/2)^2}=4(k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2})=4F

So, the force will quadruple.

The loaded cab of an elevator has a mass of 3.0 x 10 3 kg and moves 200 m up the shaft in 20 s at constant speed. At what averag
Alexeev081 [22]

The average rate at which the cable does work is 294,000 J/s.

The given parameters:

  • <em>mass, m = 3000 kg</em>
  • <em>height, h = 200 m</em>
  • <em>time of motion, t = 20 s</em>

The average rate at which the cable does work is calculated as follows;

P = \frac{E}{t} \\\\P = \frac{mgh}{t} \\\\P = \frac{3000 \times 9.8 \times 200}{20} \\\\P = 294,000 \ J/s

Thus, the average rate at which the cable does work is 294,000 J/s.

In a particular run of the “Archimedes principle” experiment a particular unknown substance is found to have a “dry mass” of 4.5
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

D = 18000 kg/m3

V = 2.5*10{-7}m3

Explanation:

From the Archimedes principle,

Weight of fluid displaced = W_{air} - W_{water}

W_{air} = 4.5 gm

W_{water} = 4.25 gm

W = [4.5 - 4.25]*9.81*10^{-3}

W = 2.4525*10{-3} N

\frac{density\ of\ object}{density\ of\ fluid} = \frac{weight\ in\ air}{weight\ of\ displaced\ fluid}

Density\ of\ object = \frac{D_{water}*Weight\ in\ air}{weight\ of\ displaced\ water}

D = \frac{1000*4.5*10^{-3}*9.8}{2.4525*10^{-3}}N

D = 18000 kg/m3

b) object Volume can be obtained  as ,

V = \frac{m}{D} = \frac{4.5*10^{-3}}{18000}

V = 2.5*10{-7}m3

A student thinks that any real vibration must be damped. Is the student correct? If so, give convincing reasoning. If not, give
Stels [109]

Answer:

Yes the student is correct

Explanation:

The first law of thermodynamics states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed

The second law of thermodynamics states that the entropy (disorderliness) of an isolated system always increases

Therefore, whereby energy is not supplied to maintain the orderly oscillatory motion with constant amplitude, the amplitude of the system is bound to reduce with time that is the vibration of the system must be damped

Help me with the following problem
Effectus [21]

The mass of the ball is 1.55 kg and its change in momentum is  10 kgm/s.

<h3>What is momentum of a body?</h3>

The momentum of a body is the product of the mass and velocity of the body.

  • Momentum = mass * velocity

Mass of the ball = momentum/velocity

Mass of the ball = 3.29 / 2.11 = 1.55 kg

The change in momentum of the body or Impulse = force * time

Change in momentum of the body = 5.00 * 2.00 = 10 kgm/s

Therefore, the momentum of a body depends on its mass and velocity.
