Answer:

-1.7908787542\times 10^{-9}\ C

3.4260289211\times 10^{-9}\ C

1.7908787542\times 10^{-9}\ C

1.6351501669\times 10^{-9}\ C

Explanation:

r = Radius

k = Coulomb constant = 8.99\times 10^{9}\ Nm^2/C^2

Electric field is given by

E=-\dfrac{kq}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow q=-\dfrac{Er^2}{k}\\\Rightarrow q=-\dfrac{1610\times 0.1^2}{8.99\times 10^9}\\\Rightarrow q=-1.7908787542\times 10^{-9}\ C

The charge is -1.7908787542\times 10^{-9}\ C

Q+q=\dfrac{Er^2}{k}\\\Rightarrow Q=\dfrac{Er^2}{k}-q\\\Rightarrow Q=\dfrac{120\times 0.35^2}{8.99\times 10^9}-(-1.7908787542\times 10^{-9})\\\Rightarrow Q=3.4260289211\times 10^{-9}\ C

The charge is 3.4260289211\times 10^{-9}\ C

The charge inside will have the polarity changed

q=+1.7908787542\times 10^{-9}\ C

Outside the charge will be

3.4260289211\times 10^{-9}-1.7908787542\times 10^{-9}\\ =1.6351501669\times 10^{-9}\ C

A lion has a mass of 45 kg. Answer the following questions about it, using correct units. a. The lion runs at a speed of 14.2 m/
Eva8 [605]
A) The kinetic energy of an object is given by:
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
where m is the mass of the object, and v its speed. For the lion in our problem, m=45 kg and v=14.2 m/s, so its kinetic energy is
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2= \frac{1}{2}(45 kg)(14.2 m/s)^2=4537 J

b) the increase in gravitational potential energy of the lion is given by:
\Delta U = mg \Delta h
where g is the gravitational acceleration, and \Delta h is the increase in altitude of the lion. In this problem, \Delta h=28 m, so the increase in gravitational potential energy is
\Delta U=mg \Delta h=(45 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(28 m)=12361 J

c) When the fox reaches the top of the tree, its gravitational potential energy is
U=mgh=(1.8 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(3.8 m)=67 J
As it jumps, its kinetic energy is
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2= \frac{1}{2}(1.8 kg)(8.1 m/s)^2=59 J
So the total mechanical energy of the fox as it jumps is
E=U+K=67 J + 59 J =126 J

Difference between moment and displacement​
harkovskaia [24]

<u>Displacement</u> is the difference between final position and initial position.

<u>Momentum</u> is the quantity of motion contained by an object.

  • It is the product of <em><u>mass and velocity.</u></em>

The magnification produced by a plane mirror is +1. what does this mean?
disa [49]

Answer:

The magnification produced by a plane mirror is +1

means then the size of the image is equal to the size of the object. If m has a magnitude greater than 1 the image is larger than the object, and an m with a magnitude less than 1 means the image is smaller than the object.
