Answer: 77 m/s in 2 significant figures

Explanation:

Total distance traveled (d) = 750 + 250 = 1000m

Time taken (t) = 13 s

Speed (s) = ?

Now,

s = d/t

s = 1000/13

s = 77 m/s in 2 significant figures

An object is placed 18 cm in front of spherical mirror.if the image is formed at 4cm to the right of the mirror, calculate it's
ivolga24 [154]
1) Focal length

We can find the focal length of the mirror by using the mirror equation:
\frac{1}{f}= \frac{1}{d_o}+ \frac{1}{d_i} (1)
where 
f is the focal length
d_o is the distance of the object from the mirror
d_i is the distance of the image from the mirror

In this case, d_o = 18 cm, while d_i=-4 cm (the distance of the image should be taken as negative, because the image is to the right (behind) of the mirror, so it is virtual). If we use these data inside (1), we find the focal length of the mirror:
\frac{1}{f}= \frac{1}{18 cm}- \frac{1}{4 cm}=- \frac{7}{36 cm}
from which we find
f=- \frac{36}{7} cm=-5.1 cm

2) The mirror is convex: in fact, for the sign convention, a concave mirror has positive focal length while a convex mirror has negative focal length. In this case, the focal length is negative, so the mirror is convex.

3) The image is virtual, because it is behind the mirror and in fact we have taken its distance from the mirror as negative.

4) The radius of curvature of a mirror is twice its focal length, so for the mirror in our problem the radius of curvature is:
r=2f=2 \cdot 5.1 cm=10.2 cm

A 0.00275 kg air‑inflated balloon is given an excess negative charge q1 =−3.50×10−8 C by rubbing it with a blanket. It is found
kati45 [8]

Answer:

1)  \rm q_2 is<u> positive.</u>

<u></u>

2) \rm q_2=4.56\times 10^{-10}\ C.

Explanation:

<h2><u>Part 1:</u></h2>

<u></u>

The charged rod is held above the balloon and the weight of the balloon acts in downwards direction. To balance the weight of the balloon, the force on the balloon due to the rod must be directed along the upwards direction, which is only possible when the rod exerts an attractive force on the balloon and the electrostatic force on the balloon due to the rod is attractive when the polarities of the charge on the two are different.

Thus, In order for this to occur, the polarity of charge on the rod must be positive, i.e., \rm q_2 is <u>positive.</u>

<u></u>

<h2><u>Part 2:</u></h2>

<u></u>

<u>Given:</u>

  • Mass of the balloon, m = 0.00275 kg.
  • Charge on the balloon, \rm q_1 = -3.50\times 10^{-8}\ C.
  • Distance between the rod and the balloon, d = 0.0640 m.
  • Acceleration due to gravity, \rm g = 9.81\ m/s^2.

In order to balloon to be float in air, the weight of the balloom must be balanced with the electrostatic force on the balloon due to rod.

Weight of the balloon, \rm W = mg = 0.00275\times 9.81=2.70\times 10^{-2}\ N.

The magnitude of the electrostatic force on the balloon due to the rod is given by

\rm F_e = \dfrac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_o}\dfrac{|q_1||q_2|}{d^2}.

\rm \dfrac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_o} is the Coulomb's constant.

For the elecric force and the weight to be balanced,

\rm F_e = W\\\dfrac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_o}\dfrac{|q_1||q_2|}{d^2}=W\\8.99\times 10^9\times \dfrac{3.50\times10^{-8}\times |q_2| }{0.0640^2}=2.70\times 10^{-2}\\|q_2| = \dfrac{2.70\times 10^{-2}\times 0.00640^2}{8.99\times 10^9\times 2.70\times 10^{-7}}=4.56\times 10^{-10}\ C.
