Explanation:

The imaginary lines that shows the direction of electric field are called electric field lines. The direction of electric field lines are from positive charge to the negative charge.

Two electric field lines can never ever intersect, if they do so there would be two direction of electric field at that point, which is not possible.

If the electric field lines are very to each other, then it indicates the stronger electric field. The electric field lines is unaffected by the nature of charged particle that created them.

Hence, the correct options are :

(A) They never cross

(B) Field lines that are close together indicate a stronger electric field

(C) They don't affect the charge that created them.

-- Electric field lines DO never cross. (A)

-- Electric field lines that are close together DO indicate a stronger electric field. (B)

-- Electric field lines DO not affect the charge that created them. (C)

-- Electric field lines DON'T begin on north poles and end on south poles. North and South "poles" are the way we talk about magnets, not electric charges.

A gun shoots a bullet with a velocity of 500 m/s. The gun is aimed horizontally and fired from a height of 1.5 m. How far does t

MrMuchimi

The bullet travels a horizontal distance of 276.5 m

The bullet is shot forward with a horizontal velocity $u_x$ . It takes a time t to fall a vertical distance y and at the same time travels a horizontal distance x.

The bullet's horizontal velocity remains constant since no force acts on the bullet in the horizontal direction.

The initial velocity of the bullet has no component in the vertical direction. As it falls through the vertical distance, it is accelerated due to the force of gravity.

Calculate the time taken for the bullet to fall through a vertical distance y using the equation,

$y=u_yt+\frac{1}{2} gt^2$

Substitute 0 m/s for $u_y$ , 9.81 m/s²for g and 1.5 m for y.

$y=u_yt+\frac{1}{2} gt^2\\ 1.5 m=(0m/s)t+\frac{1}{2} (9.81m/s^2)t^2\\ t=\sqrt{\frac{2(1.5m)}{9.81m/s^2} } =0.5530s$

The horizontal distance traveled by the bullet is given by,

$x=u_xt$

Substitute 500 m/s for $u_x$ and 0.5530s for t.

$x=u_xt\\ =(500m/s)(0.5530s)\\ =276.5m$

The bullet travels a distance of 276.5 m.

Two identical cars, one on the moon and one on the earth, have the same speed and are rounding banked turns that have the same r

Naily [24]

Answer:

The value of the centripetal forces are same.

Explanation:

Given:

The masses of the cars are same. The radii of the banked paths are same. The weight of an object on the moon is about one sixth of its weight on earth.

The expression for centripetal force is given by,

$F_{c} = \dfrac{mv^{2}}{r}$

where, $m$ is the mass of the object, $v$ is the velocity of the object and $r$ is the radius of the path.

The value of the centripetal force depends on the mass of the object, not on its weight.

As both on moon and earth the velocity of the cars and the radii of the paths are same, so the centripetal forces are the same.

4. How do ordinary objects behave in microgravity?

Nikolay [14]

Answer:

Bubbles paused

Explanation:

the air bubble doesn't rise because it is no lighter than the water around it—there's no buoyancy. The droplet doesn't fall from the leaf because there's no force to pull it off. It's stuck there by molecular adhesion.

for instance, onto the International Space Station, gravity becomes negligible, and the laws of physics act differently than here on Earth

On Earth, the buoyancy of the air bubbles causes them to rise to the top together, creating a segregation between air and water. However, in microgravity, nothing forces the air bubbles to interact and thus rise together, Green said.
