(1) acceleration, a = 4 m/s^{2}  (2) acceleration of 10 N, a_{1} = 1 m/s^{2} and acceleration of 30 N, a_{2} = 3 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

  • Here, the acceleration of the object could be found using the equation derived in the second law of motion. The equation is given as, F = ma where m is the acceleration of the object, m is the mass of the object and F is the applied on the object.
  • Let a_{1} be the acceleration for force 10 N, to find acceleration rearrange the equation to a = \frac{F}{m}. When we substitute 10 N force and 10 kg mass of the box in the equation. We will get a_{1} = 1 m/s^{2}
  • Let a_{2}  be the acceleration for force 30 N, to find acceleration rearrange the equation to F = \frac{F}{m}. When we substitute 30 N force and 10 kg mass of the box in the equation. We will get a_{2} = 3 m/s^{2}
  • To find the combined, just add the force and substitute in the above equation. Hence, a = 4 m/s^{2}

A 2.6 kg mass attached to a light string rotates on a horizontal,
Ainat [17]

The maximum speed the mass can have before it breaks is 2.27 m/s.

The given parameters:

  • <em>maximum mass the string can support before breaking, m = 17.9 kg</em>
  • <em>radius of the circle, r = 0.525 m</em>

The maximum speed the mass can have before it breaks is calculated as follows;

T = ma_c\\\\Mg = \frac{Mv^2}{r} \\\\v^2 = rg\\\\v = \sqrt{rg} \\\\v_{max} = \sqrt{0.525 \times 9.8} \\\\v_{max} = 2.27 \ m/s

Thus, the maximum speed the mass can have before it breaks is 2.27 m/s.

At what position or positions on the x-axis is the electric field zero?
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

The electric field will be zero at x = ± ∞.

Explanation:

Suppose, A -2.0 nC charge and a +2.0 nC charge are located on the x-axis at x = -1.0 cm and x = +1.0 cm respectively.

We know that,

The electric field is

E=\dfrac{kq}{r^2}

The electric field vector due to charge one

\vec{E_{1}}=\dfrac{kq_{1}}{r_{1}^2}(\hat{x})

The electric field vector due to charge second

\vec{E_{2}}=\dfrac{kq_{2}}{r_{2}^2}(-\hat{x})

We need to calculate the electric field

Using formula of net electric field

\vec{E}=\vec{E_{1}}+\vec{E_{2}}

\vec{E_{1}}+\vec{E_{2}}=0

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{kq_{1}}{r_{1}^2}(\hat{x})+\dfrac{kq_{2}}{r_{2}^2}(-\hat{x})=0

\dfrac{kq_{1}}{r_{1}^2}(\hat{x})=\dfrac{kq_{2}}{r_{2}^2}(\hat{x})

(\dfrac{r_{2}}{r_{1}})^2=\dfrac{q_{2}}{q_{1}}

\dfrac{r_{2}}{r_{1}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{q_{2}}{q_{1}}}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{2.0+x}{x}=\pm\sqrt{\dfrac{2.0}{2.0}}

2.0+x=x

If x = ∞, then the equation is be satisfied.

Hence, The electric field will be zero at x = ± ∞.

A certain field line diagram illustrates the electric field due to three particles that carry charges 5.0 μC, -3.0 μC, and -2.0
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

6

Explanation:

Number of lines emanate from + 5 micro coulomb is 15 .

They terminates at negative charges that means at - 3 micro coulomb and - 2 micro Coulomb.

the electric field lines terminates at - 3 micro Coulomb and - 2 micro Coulomb is in the ratio of 3 : 2.

So the lines terminating at - 3 micro coulomb

                                    = \frac{3}{5}\times 15 = 9

So the lines terminating at - 2 micro coulomb

                                    = \frac{2}{5}\times 15 = 6

So, the number of filed lines terminates at - 2 micro Coulomb are 6.

A little girl kicks a soccer ball. It goes 10 feet and comes back to her. How is this possible?
marta [7]
A classic puzzle...

She either kicked it at a wall <em>exactly</em><em /> 10 foot in front of her, where the ball rebounded off the wall.

Or, she kicked the ball straight up, vertically, at a <em>90 degree angle,</em> where due to the law of gravity, which states that anything that goes up must come down, when the soccer ball reaches exactly 10 feet, it falls back down.
(Note: This is nearly impossible to achieve -- exactly 10 feet.)
