The charge on any negatively charged oil droplet is always a whole-number multiple of the fundamental charge of a single electro

n.If Millikan was measuring the charge on an oil droplet with 10 negatively charged electrons on it, what charge would he have measured on the droplet?

Answer:

1.6\times 10^{-18} C  

Explanation:

The fundamental charge of a single electron is 1.6\times 10^{-19} C.

If there are 10 excess electrons, the net charge that would be measured should be 10 times the fundamental charge of a single electron:

Q=nq_e\\Q= 10\times 1.6\times 10^{-19} C\\Q= 1.6 \times 10^{-18} C

Holding onto a tow rope moving parallel to a frictionless ski slope, a 68.7 kg skier is pulled up the slope, which is at an angl
Furkat [3]

Answer:

a) F = 78.606\,N, b) F = 88.911\,N

Explanation:

a) Let consider two equations of equilibrium, the first parallel to ski slope and the second perpendicular to that. The equations are, respectively:

\Sigma F_{x'} = F - m\cdot g \cdot \sin \theta = 0\\\Sigma F_{y'} = N - m\cdot g \cdot \cos \theta = 0

The force on the skier is:

F = m \cdot g \cdot \sin \theta

F = (68.7\,kg)\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot \sin 6.7^{\textdegree}

F = 78.606\,N

b) The equations of equilibrium are the following:

\Sigma F_{x'} = F - m\cdot g \cdot \sin \theta = m\cdot a\\\Sigma F_{y'} = N - m\cdot g \cdot \cos \theta = 0

The force on the skier is:

F = m\cdot (a + g \cdot \sin \theta)

F = (68.7\,kg)\cdot (0.150\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}+9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}\cdot \sin 6.7^{\textdegree})

F = 88.911\,N

A car is traveling at 100 km/h when the driver sees an accident 80 m ahead and slams on the brakes. what minimum constant decele
Effectus [21]
Assuming the driver starts slamming the brakes immediately, the car moves by uniformly decelerated motion, so we can use the following relationship
2aS = v_f^2 - v_i^2 (1)
where 
a is the deleceration
S is the distance covered after a time t
v_f is the velocity at time t
v_i=100 km/h = 27.8 m/s is the initial speed of the car

The accident is 80 m ahead of the car, so the minimum deceleration required to avoid the accident is the value of a such that S=80 m and v_f=0 (the car should stop exactly at S=80 m to avoid the accident). Using these data, we can solve  the equation (1) to find a:
a=- \frac{v_i^2}{2 S}= -\frac{(27.8 m/s)^2}{2 \cdot 80 m} =-4.83 m/s^2
And the negative sign means it is a deceleration.

A projectile is fired with a velocity of 45 m/s at an angle of 32°. What is the
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

To calculate adjacent of triangle use

\cos(32)  =  \frac{a}{45}

where 45 is the hypotenuse, and a is the adjacent side (horizontal component)

45 \cos(32)  = 38.16

then round to 38.2
