The net force on the student is A) -294 N

Explanation:

Neglecting air resistance, there is only one force acting on the student: the force of gravity, which is given by

F=mg

where

m is the mass of the student

g is the acceleration of gravity

In this problem, we have:

m = 30 kg is the mass of the student

g=-9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity, where the negative sign means the direction is downward

Substituting, we find the force of gravity on the student:

F=(30)(-9.8)=-294 N

And since this is the only force acting on the student, it is also the net force on him.

Point charges q1=+2.00μC and q2=−2.00μC are placed at adjacent corners of a square for which the length of each side is 5.00 cm.
8_murik_8 [283]

The electric potential is a scalar unit, so we don't have to struggle with the vectors. The formula that gives electric potential is

V = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{q}{r}

1) At point a, the electric potential is the sum of the potentials due to q1 and q2. So,

V_a = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{q_1}{r_1} + \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{q_2}{r_2}

The distance from the center of the square to one of the corners is \sqrt2 L/2 = 0.035m

V_a = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{2\times10^{-6}}{0.035} + \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{-2\times10^{-6}}{0.035} = 0

The answer is zero, because the point charges are at equal distances and their magnitudes are also equal but their directions are opposite.

2) V_b = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{q_1}{r_1} + \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{q_2}{r_2}

r_1 = 0.05\sqrt2m\\r_2 = 0.05m

V_b = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{2\times10^{-6}}{0.05\sqrt2} + \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{-2\times10^{-6}}{0.05}\\V_b = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{2\times10^{-6}}{0.05} (\frac{1}{\sqrt2}-1)\\V_b = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0} (4\times 10^{-5})(-0.29)\\V_b = (-\frac{2.9\times10^{-6}}{\pi\epsilon_0})[tex]3) The work done on q3 by q1 and q2 is equal to the difference between  energies. This is the work-energy theorem. So,[tex]W = U_b - U_a

U = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{q_1q_3}{r} = Vq_3

W = q_3(V_b - V_a) = q_3(V_b - 0)\\W = (-2\times10^{-6})(-\frac{2.9\times10^{-6}}{\pi\epsilon_0})\\W = \frac{5.8\times10^{-12}}{\pi\epsilon_0}

How many times can mechanical energy become chemical energy
maria [59]

Answer:

Chemical energy, Energy stored in the bonds of chemical compounds. Chemical energy may be released during a chemical reaction, often in the form of heat; such reactions are called exothermic.

\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{p} + \frac{1}{p'}
\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{15.8} + \frac{1}{4.2}
\frac{1}{f} = \frac{2.1}{33.18} + \frac{7.9}{33.18}
\frac{1}{f} =  \frac{10}{33.18}
Product of extremes equals product of means:
10*f = 1*33.18

What determines if a material is a conductor or an insulator? Explain your answer and provide at least one example of each.
Dmitry [639]
A conducting material conducts or allows electricity to flow, while an insulator does not allow electricity to flow. For example think of a water pipe, if the pipe has a hole water can flow, on the other hand if it is just a solid rod, no water can flow through. I hope this helps.
