Answer:

A rock dropped from the ceiling of a truck's cargo bay, with the truck moving at constant velocity, the rock strikes the floor exactly below the midpoint of the ceiling.

Explanation:

An object moving at a constant velocity, is changing its displacement at an equal time.That is, the object is moving on a straight line at a constant speed.

Also an object with a constant velocity is not accelerating, since acceleration is the change in velocity with respect to time.

Therefore, A rock dropped from the ceiling of a truck's cargo bay, with the truck moving at constant velocity, the rock strikes the floor exactly below the midpoint of the ceiling.

6 mph/s


Calculating acceleration involves dividing velocity by time — or in terms of SI units, dividing the meter per second [m/s] by the second [s]. Dividing distance by time twice is the same as dividing distance by the square of time. Thus the SI unit of acceleration is the meter per second squared .

The electron's velocity at that instant is purely horizontal with a magnitude of 2 \times 10^5 ~\text{m/s}2×10 ​5 ​​ m/s then ho
Lesechka [4]

Complete question:

At a particular instant, an electron is located at point (P) in a region of space with a uniform magnetic field that is directed vertically and has a magnitude of 3.47 mT. The electron's velocity at that instant is purely horizontal with a magnitude of 2×10​⁵​​ m/s then how long will it take for the particle to pass through point (P) again? Give your answer in nanoseconds.

[<em>Assume that this experiment takes place in deep space so that the effect of gravity is negligible.</em>]

Answer:

The time it will take the particle to pass through point (P) again is 1.639 ns.

Explanation:

F = qvB

Also;

F = \frac{MV}{t}

solving this two equations together;

\frac{MV}{t} = qVB\\\\t = \frac{MV}{qVB} = \frac{M}{qB}

where;

m is the mass of electron = 9.11 x 10⁻³¹ kg

q is the charge of electron = 1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

B is the strength of the magnetic field = 3.47 x 10⁻³ T

substitute these values and solve for t

t = \frac{M}{qB} = \frac{9.11 *10^{-31}}{1.602*10^{-19}*3.47*10^{-3}} = 1.639 *10^{-9}  \ s \ = 1.639 \ ns

Therefore, the time it will take the particle to pass through point (P) again is 1.639 ns.

Prove that the weight of an object on moon is 1/6th of that on earth​
Elena L [17]

Answer:

The mass of moon is 1/100 times and its radius 1/4 times that of earth. As a result, the gravitational attraction on the moon is about one sixth when compared to earth. Hence, the weight of an object on the moon is 1/6th its weight on the earth.
