You hold a ruler that has a charge on its tip 6 cm above a small piece of tissue paper to see if it can be picked up. The ruler

has - 12 μC of charge. The tissue has 3 g of mass. What is the minimum charge required to pick up the tissue paper?

Answer:

9.81 × 10⁻¹⁰ C

Explanation:

Given:

Distance between the tissue and the tip of the scale, r = 6 cm = 0.06 m

Charge on the ruler, Q = - 12 μC = - 12 × 10⁻⁶ C

Mass of the tissue = 3 g = 0.003 Kg

Now,

The force required to pick the tissue, F = mg

where, g is the acceleration due to gravity

also,

The force between (F) the charges is given as:

F=\frac{kQq}{r^2}

where,

q is the charge on the tissue

k is the Coulomb's constant = 9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C²

thus,

mg=\frac{kQq}{r^2}

on substituting the respective values, we get

0.003\times9.81=\frac{9\times10^9\times(-12\times10^{-6})\times q}{0.06^2}

or

q = 9.81 × 10⁻¹⁰ C

Minimum charge required to pick the tissue paper is 9.81 × 10⁻¹⁰ C

Answer: I think maybe thru Convection?

Explanation:

cause convection causes the heat to stay to the top and the cold air stay's to the bottom so maybe i would say Convection.... Is there any answer choices?

Consider a venturi with a small hole drilled in the side of the throat. This hole is connected via a tube to a closed reservoir.
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

(P_1-P_2)=1913.31 N/m^2

Explanation:

given:

\frac{A_t}{A_1}=0.85

V_1=90 m/s

γ∞=1.23 kg/m^3

solution:

since outside pressure is atm pressure vaccum can be defined by (P_1-P_2)

V_1=√2(P_1-P_2)/γ∞[\frac{A_t}{A_1}^2-1]

(P_1-P_2)=1913.31 N/m^2

If a 1000-pound capsule weighs only 165 pounds on the moon, how much work is done in propelling this capsule out of the moon's g
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

  W = 1,307 10⁶ J

Explanation:

Work is the product of force by distance, in this case it is the force of gravitational attraction between the moon (M) and the capsule (m₁)

              F = G m₁ M / r²

              W = ∫ F. dr

              W = G m₁ M ∫ dr / r²

we integrate

             W = G m₁ M (-1 / r)

                 

We evaluate between the limits, lower r = R_ Moon and r = ∞

           W = -G m₁ M (1 /∞ - 1 / R_moon)

            W = G m1 M / r_moon

Body weight is

             W = mg

             m = W / g

The mass is constant, so we can find it with the initial data

For the capsule

            m = 1000/32 = 165 / g_moon

            g_moom = 165 32/1000

            .g_moon = 5.28 ft / s²

I think it is easier to follow the exercise in SI system  

           W_capsule = 1000 pound (1 kg / 2.20 pounds)

           W_capsule = 454 N

           W = m_capsule g

           m_capsule = W / g

           m = 454 /9.8

           m_capsule = 46,327 kg

Let's calculate

          W = 6.67 10⁻¹¹ 46,327   7.36 10²² / 1.74 10⁶

          W = 1,307 10⁶ J
