When sugar is poured from the box into the sugar bowl, the rubbing of sugar grains creates a static electric charge that repels

the grains, and causes sugar to go flying out in all directions. If each of two grains acquires charge of 3.0 X 10-11 C at a separation of 8.0 X 10-5 m, with what force with they repel each other

WARRIOR [948]3 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

In order to calculate the force, we will use the following formula.

                    F = k \frac{q_{1}q_{2}}{r^{2}}

where,    q_{1} = q_{2} = 3.0 \times 10^{-11} C

                r = 8.0 \times 10^{-5} m

Therefore, we will put the given values into the above formula as follows.

                 F = k \frac{q_{1}q_{2}}{r^{2}}

                    = 9 \times 10^{9} \frac{3 \times 10^{-11} \times 3 \times 10^{-11}}{(8.0 \times 10^{-5})^{2}}

                    = 1.265 \times 10^{-3} N

Thus, we can conclude that the given two grains will repel each other by a force of 1.265 \times 10^{-3} N.

Which sentence provides evidence that heat travels from Earth’s mantle up to its crust?
olasank [31]

B. Earth’s outer surface is cooler than its interior layers.

Explanation:

  • The option given above is showing us that the temperature in the interior of the earth is higher than the temperature in the outer layer.
  • There is travel of heat from the inner core of the earth to the earth's crust. Due to the loss of heat when it reaches the outer layer, there arises a temperature difference.
  • The heat loss is due to the absorption of heat during its transfer. Hence, option B is the answer.

light of a wavelength 600 nm shines on a soap bubble film. For what soap film thickness will destructive interference occur
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

The minimum thickness of the soap bubble for destructive interference to occur is 225.56 nm.

Explanation:

Given;

wavelength of light, λ = 600 nm

The minimum thickness of the soap bubble for destructive interference to occur is given by;

t = \frac{\lambda/n}{2}\\\\t = \frac{\lambda}{2n}

where;

n is refractive index of soap film = 1.33

t = \frac{\lambda}{2n} \\\\t = \frac{600*10^{-9}}{2(1.33)}\\\\t = 2.2556 *10^{-7} \ m\\\\t =  225.56 *10^{-9} \ m\\\\t = 225.56 \ nm

Therefore, the minimum thickness of the soap bubble for destructive interference to occur is 225.56 nm.

A parachutist falls 50.0 m without friction. When the parachute opens, he slows down at a rate of 67 m/s*2. If he reaches the gr
KIM [24]

Answer:

3.49 seconds

3.75 seconds

-43200 ft/s²

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 50=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{50\times 2}{9.81}}\\\Rightarrow t=3.19\ s

Time the parachutist falls without friction is 3.19 seconds

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2as+u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 50+0^2}\\\Rightarrow v=31.32\ m/s

Speed of the parachutist when he opens the parachute 31.32 m/s. Now, this will be considered as the initial velocity

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 11=31.32+9.81t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{11-31.32}{-67}=0.3\ s

So, time the parachutist stayed in the air was 3.19+0.3 = 3.49 seconds

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow \frac{s}{2}=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times a\times t^2\\\Rightarrow \frac{s}{2}=\frac{1}{2}at^2

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow \frac{s}{2}=u1.1+\frac{1}{2}\times a\times 1.1^2

Now the initial velocity of the last half height will be the final velocity of the first half height.

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=at

Since the height are equal

\frac{1}{2}at^2=u1.1+\frac{1}{2}\times a\times 1.1^2\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2}at^2=at1.1+\frac{1}{2}\times a\times 1.1^2\\\Rightarrow 0.5t^2-1.1t-0.605=0\\\Rightarrow 500t^2-1100t-605=0

t=\frac{11\left(1+\sqrt{2}\right)}{10},\:t=\frac{11\left(1-\sqrt{2}\right)}{10}\\\Rightarrow t=2.65, -0.45

Time taken to fall the first half is 2.65 seconds

Total time taken to fall is 2.65+1.1 = 3.75 seconds.

When an object is thrown with a velocity upwards then the velocity of the object at the point to where it was thrown becomes equal to the initial velocity.

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{0^2-240^2}{2\times \frac{8}{12}}\\\Rightarrow a=-43200\ ft/s^2

Magnitude of acceleration is -43200 ft/s²
