What form of energy are microwaves?

The 9-inch-long elephant nose fish in the Congo River generates a weak electric field around its body using an organ in its tail

Alik [6]

Answer:

$1.34\cdot 10^{-16} C$

Explanation:

The strength of the electric field produced by a charge Q is given by

$E=k\frac{Q}{r^2}$

where

Q is the charge

r is the distance from the charge

k is the Coulomb's constant

In this problem, the electric field that can be detected by the fish is

$E=3.00 \mu N/C = 3.00\cdot 10^{-6}N/C$

and the fish can detect the electric field at a distance of

$r=63.5 cm = 0.635 m$

Substituting these numbers into the equation and solving for Q, we find the amount of charge needed:

$Q=\frac{Er^2}{k}=\frac{(3.00\cdot 10^{-6} N/C)(0.635 m)^2}{9\cdot 10^9 Nm^2 C^{-2}}=1.34\cdot 10^{-16} C$

According to newton, doubling the distance between two interacting objects:

Furkat [3]

Answer:

So as two objects are separated from each other, the force of gravitational attraction between them also decreases. If the separation distance between two objects is doubled (increased by a factor of 2), then the force of gravitational attraction is decreased by a factor of 4 (2 raised to the second power).

The sum of the charges on both plates of a capacitor is zero. What does a capacitor store?

erma4kov [3.2K]

Current is the overall flow of electrons through a conductor and can be defined as the speed of the flow of electrons. Resistance is defined as the opposition to current flow. Circuits must have resistance to convert electrical energy into light, heat, or motion. Resistance is called the directional movement of electrons that form an electric current. It is also known that electrons do not move freely in the crystal structure of a conductor. Resistance is the inherent opposition to the flow of electrons present in a conductor. Inductance is the property of any circuit to resist any change in current while capacitance is the property of the circuit to resist any change in voltage.

<h3>What is capacitor?</h3>

A capacitor is an electronic component that stores an electrical charge. Capacitors consist of two close conductors (usually plates) separated by a dielectric material. The plates accumulate an electrical charge when connected to a power source. The main purpose of a capacitor is to store electrostatic energy in an electric field and, if possible, to supply this energy to an electrical circuit.

To avoid dangerous circuit failure, they allow alternating current to flow but block direct current. Capacitors are widely used as circuit elements in many common electrical devices. Commercial capacitors are made of interwoven metal foils with paraffin or Mylar-impregnated paper as the dielectric.

Please help me

-- We know that the y-component of acceleration is the derivative of the
y-component of velocity.

-- We know that the y-component of velocity is the derivative of the
y-component of position.

-- We're given the y-component of position as a function of time.

So, finding the velocity and acceleration is simply a matter of differentiating
the position function ... twice.

Now, the position function may look big and ugly in the picture. But with the
exception of 't' , everything else in the formula is constants, so we don't even
need any fancy processes of differentiation. The toughest part of this is going
to be trying to write it out, given the text-formatting capabilities of the wonderful
envelope-pushing website we're working on here.

From the picture . . . . . y (t) = (1/2) (a₀ - g) t² - (a₀ / 30t₀⁴ ) t⁶

First derivative . . . y' (t) = (a₀ - g) t - 6 (a₀ / 30t₀⁴ ) t⁵ = (a₀ - g) t - (a₀ / 5t₀⁴ ) t⁵

There's your velocity . . . /\ .

Second derivative . . . y'' (t) = (a₀ - g) - 5 (a₀ / 5t₀⁴ ) t⁴ = (a₀ - g) - (a₀ /t₀⁴ ) t⁴

and there's your acceleration . . . /\ .
That's the one you're supposed to graph.

a₀ is the acceleration due to the model rocket engine thrust
combined with the mass of the model rocket
'g' is the acceleration of gravity ... 9.8 m/s² or 32.2 ft/sec²
t₀ is how long the model rocket engine burns

Pick, or look up, some reasonable figures for a₀ and t₀
and you're in business.

The big name in model rocketry is Estes. Their website will give you
all the real numbers for thrust and burn-time of their engines, if you
want to follow it that far.

A tennis player tosses a tennis ball straight up and then catches it after 1.25 s at the same height as the point of release.

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

A. 9.8 m/s²

B. Zero

C. 6.125 m/s

D. 1.91 m

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Time (T) spent in the air = 1.25 s

A. Determination of the acceleration of the ball.

From the description given in question above, the motion of the tennis ball is motion under gravity. Hence, the ball will experience an acceleration due to gravity of 9.8 m/s²

B. Determination of the velocity at maximum height.

Maximum height is the greatest point reached by the tennis ball above the ground. At maximum height, the velocity of the tennis ball is zero since it has no further force to propel it upward.

C. Determination of the initial velocity of the ball.

We'll begin by calculating the time taken to reach the maximum height. This can be obtained as follow:

Time (T) spent in the air = 1.25 s

Time (t) to reach the maximum height =?

T = 2t

1.25 = 2t

Divide both side by 2

t = 1.25 / 2

t = 0.625 s

Finally, we shall determine the initial velocity of the ball. This can be obtained as follow:

Time (t) to reach the maximum height = 0.625 s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Final velocity (v) = 0 (at maximum height)

Initial velocity (u) =?

v = u – gt (since the ball is going against gravity)

0 = u – (9.8 × 0.625)

0 = u – 6.125

Collect like terms

0 + 6.125 = u

u = 6.125 m/s

Thus, the initial velocity of the ball is 6.125 m/s

D. Determination of the maximum height.

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Final velocity (v) = 0 (at maximum height)

Initial velocity (u) = 6.125 m/s

Maximum height (h) =?

v² = u² – 2gh (since the ball is going against gravity)

0² = 6.125² – (2 × 9.8 × h)

0 = 37.52 – 19.6h

Collect like terms

0 – 37.52 = – 19.6h

– 37.52 = – 19.6h

Divide both side by – 19.6

h = – 37.52 / – 19.6

h = 1.91 m

Thus, the maximum height reached by the ball is 1.91 m
