Answer:

 W = 1.49 10⁻¹¹ kg

Explanation:

For this problem, let's use Newton's equation of equilibrium

           F - W = 0

            F = W              (1)

Strength can be found from the definition of pressure

        P = F / A

        F = P A

   

The radiation pressure for a reflective surface is

            P = 2 I / c)

   

We substitute in equation 1

         2 I / c  A = W

The intensity is defined by the ratio of the power between the area

          I = P / A

          P = I A

We substitute

          2 P / c = W

   

           W = 2  2.24 10-3 / 3 108

           W = 1.49 10⁻¹¹ kg

a train travels 99 kilometers in 3 hours, and then 80 kilometers in 5 hours. What is it’s average speed?
Karolina [17]

Average speed = (total distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

Total distance covered = (99km + 80km) = 179 km

Time to cover the distance = 8 hours

Average speed = (179km / 8hours)

Average speed = 22.375 km/hour

How do ballerinas take advantage of conservation of momentum to turn?.
mars1129 [50]
The ballerinas takes advantage of the moment of interia by not stretching her hands out etc. and by doing so decreasing the moment of interia and therefore a smaller torque is produced to rotate at a faster rate.

A negative charge of -0.550 m exerts an upward <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection" class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="5868766e
almond37 [142]

Answer:

a. +10.9μC

b. 0.600N and downward

Explanation:

To determine the magnitude of the charge, we use the force rule that exist between two charges which us expressed as

F=(kq₁q₂)/r²

since q₁=-0.55μC and the force it applied on the charge above it is upward,we can conclude that the second charge is +ve, hence we calculate its magnitude as

q₂=Fr²/kq₁

q₂=(0.6N*0.3²)/(9*10⁹*0.55*10⁻⁶)

q₂=0.054/4950

q₂=1.09*10⁻⁵c

q₂=10.9μC.

Hence the second charge is +10.9μC

b. From the rule of charges which state that like charges repel and unlike charges attract, we can conclude that the two above charges will attract since they are unlike charges. Hence the direction of the force will be downward into the second charge and the magnitude of the force will remain the same as 0.600N
