Answer:

The rate of acceleration is 7.441 m/s/s.

(19 - 2.6) * 9.8 / (19 + 2.6) = 7.441

The tension in the cord is 44.826 Newtons.

2.6 * (9.8 + 7.441) = 44.826

or

19 * (9.8 - 7.441) = 44.826

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

m_1=14 kg

m_2=5.2 lg

Vertical distance,d=2.5 m

Acceleration due to gravity=g=9.8 m/s^2

a.Acceleration=a=\frac{(m_1-m_2)}{m_1+m_2}g

Substitute the values

Acceleration, a=\frac{14-5.2}{14+5.2}\times 9.8

Acceleration, a=4.49 m/s^2

b.Tension in the cord, T=m_2(a+g)

Tension in the cord,T=5.2(9.8+4.49)=74.3 N

Hence, the tension in the cord=74.3 N

Two charges, - Q0 and - 4Q0 are a distance d apart. These two charges are free to move but do not because there is a third charg
TEA [102]

To solve this problem we will use the equilibrium conditions in the Electrostatic Forces. In turn, we will use the concept formulated from Coulomb's laws to determine the intensity of the Forces and make the respective considerations.

Our values for the two charges are:

q_1 = -Q_0

q_2 = -4Q_0

As a general consideration we will start by determining that they are at a unit distance (1) separated from each other. And considering that both are negative charges, they will be subjected to repulsive force. Said equilibrium compensation will be achieved only by placing a third force between the two.

Let the third charge be q_3 = +Q is placed at a distance x from q_1

F_{1,3} = \frac{k(-Q_0)(+Q)}{x^2}

The force on q_3 due to q_2 is

F_{2,3} = \frac{k(-4Q_0)(+Q)}{1-x^2}

The condition of equilibrium is

F_{1,3} = F_{2,3}

\frac{k(-Q_0)(+Q)}{x^2}= \frac{k(-4Q_0)(+Q)}{1-x^2}

\frac{1}{x^2} = \frac{4}{(1-x)^2}

x = 0.331 from q_1

To find the magnitude of q_3 we use F_{1,2} = F_{1,3}

\frac{k(-Q_0)(4Q_0)}{1^2}= \frac{k(-Q_0)(Q)}{0.331^2}

Q = 0.43Q_0

The magnitude of the third charge must be 0.43 the first charge Q_0

On which date does the antarctic circle have 24 hours of daylight
Airida [17]

Answer:

21st of December

Explanation:

In the northern hemisphere there occurs winter solstice on 21st of December. During this time, the tilt of the earth in the northern hemisphere is away from the sun. So the places near and at Antarctica, there will be sunlight for about 24 hours and the sun does not set on this particular day.

And, on the other hand, the places near the Arctic circle experiences darkness for about 24 hours and the sun does not rise on this specific day.

<span>2700 Joules The important value here is how high the escalator moved you. The actual length doesn't matter. All it affects is how fast the work is performed upon you. So the escalator lifted 64 kg against gravity for 4.3m. So: 4.3 m * 9.8 m/s^2 * 64 kg = 2696.96 kg*m^2/s^2 = 2696.96 Joules Rounding to 2 significant figures gives 2700 Joules</span>
