Answer:

Please see below as the answers are self-explanatory.

Explanation:

  • Similarities

1) The resultant force is along the line that joins both charges or both masses (assuming both objects can be represented as points)

2) Both type of forces obey  Newton's 3rd law.

3) Both are proportional to the product of the property that is affected by the force (charges and masses)

4) Both obey an inverse - square law (consequence of our universe being three-dimensional)

  • Differences

1) Main difference, is that while the gravitational force is always attractive, the electrostatic force can be attractive or repulsive, as there are two types of charges, which attract each other being of different type, and repel each other if they are of the same type.

2) It  is possible, artificially, to block the influence of the electrostatic force, shielding a room, for instance, which is not possible for the gravitational force.

A ball rolls up a ramp with a velocity of 8.0 m/s. How high up the ramp does it travel?
Flura [38]

The greatest height the ball will attain is 3.27 m

<h3>Data obtained from the question</h3>
  • Initial velocity (u) = 8 m/s
  • Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s (at maximum height)
  • Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
  • Maximum height (h) =?

The maximum height to which the ball can attain can be obtained as follow:

v² = u² – 2gh (since the ball is going against gravity)

0² = 8² – (2 × 9.8 × h)

0 = 64 – 19.6h

Collect like terms

0 – 64 = –19.6h

–64 = –19.6h

Divide both side by –19.6

h = –64 / –19.6h

h = 3.27 m

Thus, the greatest height the ball can attain is 3.27 m

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

observer bias

Explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question the thing that should concern us the most about Sandi's observations is Observer Bias. This term refers to the tendency of a researcher to see what they want as opposed to what is actually happening. This can be said because of Sandi's belief that McDonald clients are all overweight, by having this belief before actually having come to this conclusion with a series of tests, it might lead her to believe this to be true regardless of what she observes during the experiment.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

Experts, ACE, Genius... can anybody calculate for the Reactions at supports A and B please? Will give brainliest! Given: fb = 30
dybincka [34]

Answer:

Support at Cy = 1.3 x 10³ k-N

Support at Ay = 200 k-N

Explanation:

given:

fb = 300 k-N/m

fc = 100 k-N/m

D = 300 k-N

L ab = 6 m

L bc = 6 m

L cd = 6 m

To get the reaction A or C.

take summation of moment either A or C.

<em><u>Support Cy:</u></em>

∑ M at Ay = 0

      (( x1 * F ) + ( D * Lab ) + ( D * L bc + D * L cd )

Cy = -------------------------------------------------------------------

                                      ( L ab + L bc )

Cy = 1.3 x 10³ k-N

<em><u>Support Ay:</u></em>

Since ∑ F = 0,           A + C - F - D = 0

                                   A = F  + D - C

                                  Ay = 200 k-N
