Bill and Amy want to ride their bikes from their neighborhood to school which is 14.4 kilometers

1 answer:

3 0

First we should convert 14.4 km into meters using the conversion factor 1km = 1000m; thus, 14.4 km = 14,400 m. Next, we should convert all minutes into seconds <span>using the conversion factor 1 min = 60 seconds; thus, 40 mins = 2400 seconds while 20 minutes = 1200 seconds.
Speed = distance over time
Amy's speed = 14400 m / 2400 sec = 6m/s
Bill's time is 1200 sec + Amy's which is 2400 sec
Bill's speed = 14400m / 3600 sec = 4 m/s

Therefore, Amy is faster than Bill with 2 m/s difference.</span>

What is carried by a wave?

Nata [24]

Waves carry energy from one place to another. Because waves carry energy, some waves are used for communication, eg radio and television waves and mobile telephone signals. ... Some types of waves need to be transmitted through matter, either a solid, liquid or a gas. For example, water waves have to travel in water.

A small object of mass 3.82 g and charge -16.5 µC is suspended motionless above the ground when immersed in a uniform electric f

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

2271.16N/C upward

Explanation:

The diagram well illustrate all the forces acting on the mass. The weight is acting downward and the force is acting upward in other to balance the weight.since the question says it is motionless, then indeed the forces are balanced.

First we determine the downward weight using

$W=mg\\g=9.81m/s^{2}$

Hence for a mass of 3.82g 0r 0.00382kg we have the weight to be

$W=0.00382kg*9.81m/s^{2}$

$W=0.0375N$

To calculate the electric field,

$E=f/q\\E=0.0375/16.5*10^{-6} \\E=2271.16N/C$

Since the charge on the mass is negative, in order to generate upward force, there must be a like charge below it that is repelling it, Hebce we can conclude that the electric field lines are upward.

Hence the magnitude of the electric force is 2271.16N/C and the direction is upward
