5 0

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

It is known that Colombian force between similar charges is repulsive in nature. Therefore, it means that the direction of force experienced by the charges in North and East will be South and West respectively.

As a result, this means that the forces are going to be towards the south-west direction.

Thus, we can conclude that if you are holding a positive charge and there are positive charges of equal magnitude 1 m to your north and 1 m to your east. The direction of the force on the charge you are holding should be in south-west direction.

A closed system’s internal energy changes by 178 J as a result of being heated with 658 J of energy.
statuscvo [17]
Internal energy of the system changes by ΔE = 178 J.
Heat given to the system = Q = +658 J.

According to the first law of thermodynamics, 
ΔE = Q + W
178 = 658 + W 
∴ W = 178-658 = -480 J

Minus sign indicates that work is done by the system.

During a baseball game, a batter hits a high pop-up. If the ball remains in the air for 6.22 s, how high does it rise? The accel
BigorU [14]

Answer:

47.4 m

Explanation:

When an object is thrown upward, it rises up, it reaches its maximum height, and then it goes down. The time at which it reaches its maximum height is half the total time of flight.

In this case, the time of flight is 6.22 s, so the time the ball takes to reach the maximum height is

t=\frac{6.22}{2}=3.11 s

Now we consider only the downward motion of the ball: it is a free fall motion, so we can find the vertical displacement by using the suvat equation

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

s is the vertical displacement

u = 0 is the initial velocity

t = 3.11 s is the time

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity (taking downward as positive direction)

Solving the  formula, we find

s=\frac{1}{2}(9.8)(3.11)^2=47.4 m

A 1200-kilogram automobile in motion strikes a 0.0001-kilogram insect. As a result, the insect is accelerated at a rate of 100 m
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

force = 1 × 10^{-2} N

Explanation:

given data

automobile mass = 1200 kg

insect mass = 0.0001 kg

insect accelerated = 100 m/s²

to find out

magnitude of the force the insect exerts on the car

solution

we get here force the insect exerts that is express as

force = mass × acceleration    ............1

put here value we get

force = 0.0001 × 100 m/s²

force = 1 × 10^{-2} N
