It's not that hard. Let me explain...

There are two ways to remember this.

The first one is by using the formula for the electric strength (E)

E = k × (Q / r^2) , where:

k is a constant
Q is the "central" charge. The one producing the electric field. <u>Not</u> the one we use to test it.
r is the distance between the charges

As you can see, field's strength is proportional to the magnitude of Q, and inverse proportional to the square of the distance. The field does not care how much you alter the charge you positioned in ot to test it.

Although that is the only way to work out the problem, there are many ways to remember it. Given that i have difficulty in remembering formulas, i always try to derive it from something i know.

By definition: E is equal to the force acted on the test charge, divided by its value.

E = F / q

F --> Coulomb's force
q --> test charge

Since i remember that:

F = k ( Q × q) / r^2

just take out from the expression the q term, since you divided by it, and all it remains is the strength of the field.

In other words, the strength changes as long as something from the expression is altered.

What type of energy is involved when a river moves sediment and erodes its banks?

ziro4ka [17]

<span>First question: The type of energy involved when a river moves sediment and erodes its banks is: option d. Kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is the energy associated with motion. A body (in this case the water) that moves has an energy associated with its motion that is proportional to the speed (exactly to the square of the speed). When the water collides with the banks it is the kinetic energy of the river that erodes it Second question: the answer is the option d. As gravity pulls water down a slope potential energy changes to knietic energy. This is the, water loses altitude and gains velocity. The potential energy. which is proportional to the height, decreases and the kinetic energy, which is proportional to the square of the speed, increases.</span>

Tarzan swings on a 26.2 m long vine initially inclined at an angle of 28° from the vertical. (a) What is his speed at the bottom

Marianna [84]

Answer

given,

length of the swing = 26.2 m

inclined at an angle = 28°

let, the initial height of the Tarzan be h

h = L (1 - cos θ)

a) initial velocity v₁ = 0 m/s

final velocity of Tarzan = v_f

law of conservation of energy

PE_i + KE_i = PE_f + KE_f

$mgh_i + \dfrac{1}{2}mv_i^2= mgh_f + \dfrac{1}{2}mv_f^2$

$mgh_i + 0 = 0 + \dfrac{1}{2}mv_f^2$

$mgh_i = \dfrac{1}{2}mv_f^2$

$v_f = \sqrt{2gh_i}$

$= \sqrt{2gL(1- cos\theta)}$

$= \sqrt{2\times 9.8 \times 26.2(1- cos 28^0)}$

= 7.75 m/s

the speed tarzan at the bottom of the swing

v_f = 7.75 m/s

b)initial speed of the = 3 m/s

$mgh_i + \dfrac{1}{2}mv_i^2= mgh_f + \dfrac{1}{2}mv_f^2$

$mgh_i + 0 = 0 + \dfrac{1}{2}mv_f^2$

$mgh_i+ \dfrac{1}{2}mv_i^2 = \dfrac{1}{2}mv_f^2$

$gh_i+ \dfrac{1}{2}v_i^2 = \dfrac{1}{2}v_f^2$

$v_f = \sqrt{v_1^2+2gh_i}$

$v_f = \sqrt{3^2+2\times 9.8 \times (1- cos 28^0)}$

v_f= 11.29 m/s

What are the genotypes of gametes of a aabb self-pollination??

Rus_ich [418]

All of the possibilities would be aabb. There are no dominant traits to come through from the self pollinating plant so therefore, the offspring would would have the same genotypes.

I apologize for the messy graph in advance. If you have any further questions please let me know
