420 m of total distance is covered by the skier on travelling from A to D.

Explanation:

As from the picture, it can be seen that first the skier moved from position A to position B. And the distance covered by this movement is 180 m. Then as the skier travels from position B to position C, the distance between these two positions is 140 m from the figure. As distance is a scalar quantity, the direction is not taken into consideration. So only the magnitudes of the distance between those points are added.

Now, the distance between A to B is 180 m and then from B to C is 140 m, atlast from C to D, the distance is given as 100 m.

So, the total distance will be the sum of all the above found distances. Thus, the total distance will be 180+140+100 = 420 m.

As the question is about distance, so no need to write the direction for it.

Thus, the final answer will be 420 m of total distance is covered by the skier on travelling from A to D.

A constant unbalanced force is applied to an object for a period of time. Which graph best represents the acceleration of the ob

balu736 [363]

Answer:

Here is an image attached with similar questions.

The correct answer is D where acceleration is function of time.

Explanation:

The force acting on the object is constant.

There is no change in the application of forces.

And we know that Force is the product of acceleration and masses.

Newtons second law: $F=m\times a$

Regarding mass we know that it can neither be created nor destroyed.

So in $F=m \times a$ we have two constant terms, constant divided by constant will give the same result as $a=\frac{Force}{mass}$

There is no change in acceleration $(a)$ with respect to time $(t)$ .

So the most appropriate graph where time (t) is changing on $x-axis$ but acceleration doesn't changes is D.

The graph will be similar to $y=any\ constant$ and will be horizontal to the $x-axis$ .

Option D depicts the same.

The electric field 14.0 cm from the surface of a copper ball of radius 2.0 cm is directed toward the ball's center and has magni

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Q = - 256 X 10⁻⁷ C .

Explanation:

Electric field due to a charge Q at a distance d from the center is given by the expression

E = k Q /d² Where k is a constant and it is equal to 9 x 10⁹

Put the given value in the equation

9 x 10² = $\frac{9\times10^9\times Q}{(14+2)^2\times10^{-4}}$

Q = $\frac{9\times16^2\times10^{-2}}{9\times10^9}$

Q = - 256 X 10⁻⁷ C .

It will be negative in nature as the field is directed towards the center.
