Answer:

Toward the north, 300 N

Explanation:

Consider the upward direction as positive and downward direction as negative.

Given:

Mass of the balloon is, $m=300\ kg$

Lift force on the balloon in the upward direction is, $F_L=3300\ N$

Take acceleration due to gravity as 10 N/kg.

Now, weight of the balloon acting downward is given as the product of its mass and acceleration due to gravity. Therefore,

Weight is, $W=mg=(300\ kg)(10\ N/kg)=-3000\ N$

Now, net force is given as the vector sum of both the forces.

$F_{net}=F_L+W\\F_{net}=3300-3000=300\ N(\textrm{Upward direction})$

The upward direction is the direction of North. So, the net force acting on the balloon is 300 N towards North.

If a woman weighs 125 lb, her mass expressed in kilograms is x kg, where x is

adelina 88 [10]

The first thing you should know to solve this problem is the conversion of pounds to kilograms:
1lb = 0.45 Kg
We can solve this problem by a simple rule of three
1lb ---> 0.45Kg
125lb ---> x
Clearing x we have:
x = ((125) / (1)) * (0.45) = 56.25 Kg.
Answer
her mass expressed in kilograms is 56.25 Kg.

One ring of radius a is uniformly charged with charge +Q and is placed so its axis is the x-axis. A second ring with charge –Q i

kati45 [8]

Answer:

The force exerted on an electron is $7.2\times10^{-18}\ N$

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge = 3 μC

Radius a=1 m

Distance = 5 m

We need to calculate the electric field at any point on the axis of a charged ring

Using formula of electric field

$E=\dfrac{kqx}{(a^2+x^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}\hat{x}$

$E_{1}=\dfrac{kqx}{(a^2+x^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}\hat{x}$

Put the value into the formula

$E_{1}=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times3\times10^{-6}\times5}{(1^2+5^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}$

$E_{1}=1.0183\times10^{3}\ N/C$

Using formula of electric field again

$E_{2}=\dfrac{kqx}{(a^2+x^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}\hat{x}$

Put the value into the formula

$E_{2}=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times(-3\times10^{-6})\times5}{((0.5)^2+5^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}$

$E_{2}=-1.064\times10^{3}\ N/C$

We need to calculate the resultant electric field

Using formula of electric field

$E=E_{1}+E_{2}$

Put the value into the formula

$E=1.0183\times10^{3}-1.064\times10^{3}$

$E=-0.045\times10^{3}\ N/C$

We need to calculate the force exerted on an electron

Using formula of electric field

$E = \dfrac{F}{q}$

$F=E\times q$

Put the value into the formula

$F=-0.045\times10^{3}\times(-1.6\times10^{-19})$

$F=7.2\times10^{-18}\ N$

Hence, The force exerted on an electron is $7.2\times10^{-18}\ N$

How is the Maunder minimum related to climate?

Alexxandr [17]

Maunder minimum is related to climate due to the unusually low sunspot activity correlates to unusually cold climatic events. The answer is letter A. It happened around 1645 and 1715 and also coincided with the phenomena ‘Little Ice Age’ (1500 – 1850) in the Northern Hemisphere.

An element emits a spectrum that____________.a)is evenly spaced.b)is the same as all other elements.c)is unique to that element.

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

c)is unique to that element

Explanation:

The spectrum emitted by a element shows the internal electronic structure of that element.We know that all element is having different internal electronic structure that is why all element emits different spectrum.And the spacing between the spectrum is uneven .

Therefore the answer will be option C.

c)is unique to that element
