Answer:

x coordinate = -1.66 m

y coordinate is = -0.825m

Explanation:

Suppose z be the distance form the first charge and z + sqrt(1^2 +.5^2) be the distance from the second So z + sqrt(1+.25) = z + 1.12

We have k*2.0x10^-6/s^2 = k*6x10^-6/(s+1.12)^2

0.0356s^2 -0.019s-0.0897=0  

s=1.876m

The angle of the line between the two charges is arctan(.5/1) = 26.6o

x coordinate = -1.876*cos(26.6) = -1.66m

y coordinate is -1.876*sin(26.6) = -0.825m

A ballast is dropped from a stationary hot-air balloon that is at an altitude of 576 ft. Find (a) an expression for the altitude
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

<h2>a) S = \frac{1}{2}gt^2\\</h2><h2>b) 6secs</h2><h2>c) 192ft</h2>

Explanation:

If a ball dropped from a stationary hot-air balloon that is at an altitude of 576 ft, an expression for the altitude of the ballast after t seconds can be expressed using the equation of motion;

S = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^{2}

S is the altitude of the ballest

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration of the body

t is the time taken to strike the ground

Since the body is dropped from a stationary air balloon, the initial velocity u will be zero i.e u = 0m/s

Also, since the ballast is dropped from a stationary hot-air balloon, the body is under the influence of gravity, the acceleration will become acceleration due to gravity i.e a = +g

Substituting this values into the equation of the motion;

S = 0 + \frac{1}{2}gt^2\\ S = \frac{1}{2}gt^2\\

a) An expression for the altitude of the ballast after t seconds is therefore

S = \frac{1}{2}gt^2\\

b) Given S = 576ft and g = 32ft/s², substituting this into the formula in (a);

576 = \frac{1}{2}(32)t^2\\\\\\576*2 = 32t^2\\1152 = 32t^2\\t^2 = \frac{1152}{32} \\t^2 = 36\\t = \sqrt{36}\\ t = 6.0secs

This means that the ballast strikes the ground after 6secs

c) To get the velocity when it strikes the ground, we will use the equation of motion v = u + gt.

v = 0 + 32(6)

v = 192ft

Which of the following is a contact force?
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

b friction

Explanation:

Contact forces

Contact forces are forces that act between two objects that are physically touching each other. Examples of contact forces include:

Reaction force

An object at rest on a surface experiences reaction force. For example, a book on a table.

A box rests on a table. There are two arrows, equal in size but going in opposite directions, up and down, from the point where the box meets the table.

Tension

An object that is being stretched experiences a tension force. For example, a cable holding a ceiling lamp.

A box hangs from a rope. Two arrows which are equal in size act upwards and dowards from the top and bottom of the rope.

Friction

Two objects sliding past each other experience friction forces. For example, a box sliding down a slope.

A box rests on an incline. There are three arrows; one acting vertically downwards from the centre of the box’s base. One arrow acts perpendicular to the incline. One arrow acts up the incline.

Air resistance

An object moving through the air experiences air resistance. For example, a skydiver falling through the air.

A box falls from the sky. Two arrows, equal in size and opposite in direction act upwards from the box and downwards from the box

When a contact force acts between two objects, both objects experience the same size force, but in opposite directions. This is Newton's Third Law of Motion.
