If the book is placed in the middle, the forces acting on <em>p</em> and <em>q</em> is 5N. If the book is moved 50 cm from <em>q</em>, the forces at <em>p</em> and <em>q</em> can be solved by doing a moment balance

<u>With </u><u><em>p</em></u><u> as the pivot;</u>

Fq (2 m) = 10 N (0.5 m)

Fq = 2.5 N

Fp = 10 N - 2.5 N = 7.5 N

How much force is needed to accelerate a 1000Kg car at a rate of 3m/s2?
ikadub [295]

According to Newton (2nd law),   Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

Substitute what we know :           Force = (1,000 kg) x (3 m/s²)

Do the arithmetic:                        Force = 3,000 kg-m/s²  =  3,000 newtons

What is the change in potential energy if the distance separating the electron and proton is increased to 1.0 nm?
Vlada [557]

Answer:

Ep=-2.3*10^{-19}J

Explanation:

The change in potential energy can be expressed as:

Ep=K.\frac{q1.q2}{r}

where K is a constant with a value of 9*10^{9}\frac{N.m^{2}}{C^{2}}, q1 and q2 are the charges of the proton and the electron and r is the distance between them.

The charge for the proton is +1.6*10^{-19}C and the charge for the electron is -1.6*10^{-19}C.

Converting r=1.0nm to m:

1.0nm*\frac{1*10^{-9}m}{1.0nm}=1*10^{-9}m

Replacing values:

Ep=9*10^{9}\frac{N.m^{2}}{C^{2}}.\frac{(+1.6*10^{-19}C).(-1.6*10^{-19}C)}{1*10^{-9}m}

Ep=-2.3*10^{-19}J

Which of the following best describes the human population from early times to the present?
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

We have a not significant increase of the population until 1700s or 1800s and then a significant increase growth from these years to the present.

Explanation:

From the figure attached we see the evolution of the human population since early times (1050).

We see that from 1050 until 1750-1850 we have an increase slowly with a low value for the increase per year.

But after these years (1750-1850) we see a considerable increase of the population, like an exponential model.

So then we can conclude in general terms this:

We have a not significant increase of the population until 1700s or 1800s and then a significant increase growth from these years to the present.
