Answer: The last part of the question has some details missing which is ; (Assume that the molecule's velocity is perpendicular to the two sides that it strikes.) molecule v=482 m/s molecule momentum=2.56 x 10^(-23)

Explanation:

  • The momentum of the molecule is 2.56 x 10^(-23) .
  • Particle hits the wall and bounces.
  • Momentum is reversed. Change in momentum = impulse
  • This is Force x time.
  • Momentum change happens at a wall after each trip.

  • time required = distance /speed

  • = 0.17 X 2/(482 m/s)

  • Average force = impulse / time

  • = 2 x 482 x 2.56 x 10^(-23) / (0.17 x 2)

  • = 7.76 x 10^20N, is the average force the molecule exerts on one of the walls of the container.

lianna [129]
Well, there are different ways you can represent the motion
of the pendulum on a graph.  For example, the graph could
show the pendulum's displacement, total distance, position,
speed, velocity, or acceleration against time.  Your question
doesn't specify which quantity the graphs show, so it's pretty
tough to describe their similarities and differences, since these
could be different depending on the quantity being graphed. 

I have decided to make it simple, and assume that the graph shows
the distance away from the center against time, with positive and
negative values to represent whether its position is to the left or right
of the center.  And now I shall proceed to answer the question that
I just invented.

In both cases, the graph would be a "sine" wave.  That is, it would be
the graph of the equation 

Y = A · sin(B · time) .

' A ' is the amplitude of the wave.

' B ' is some number that depends on the frequency of the swing . . .
how often the pendulum completes one full swing.

The two graphs would have different amplitudes, so the number 'A'
would be different.  It would be 5 for the first graph and 10 on the 2nd one.

But the number 'B' would be the same for both graphs, because 
when she pulled it farther and let it go, it would make bigger swings,
but they would not happen any faster or slower than the small swings.

In the space of, say one minute, the pendulum would make the same
number of swings both times.  That number would only depend on the
length of the string, but not on how far you pull it sideways before you
let it go.

Dos cargas iguales de 10^-7C estan separadas por una distancia de 2m. calcule la fuerza con que se repelen
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

F=2.25\times 10^{-5}\ N

Explanation:

According to question,

Charge 1 and charge 2 are 10^{-7}\ C

The distance between charges is 2 m

We need to find the force with which two positive charges repel. It is called electrostatic force of repulsion. It can be given by :

F=\dfrac{kq^2}{r^2}\\\\F=\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times (10^{-7})^2}{2^2}\\\\F=2.25\times 10^{-5}\ N

So, the electric force of repulsion is 2.25\times 10^{-5}\ N.

B. The coefficient of friction between the tires and the road is 0.850 and the mass of the car is
Mrac [35]

Answer:

156.26N

Explanation:

The data needed are incomplete. Let the acceleration of the body be 3.5m/s²

Other given parameters

Mass = 1.35×10^1 = 13.5kg

coefficient of friction between the tires and the road = 0.850

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

According to Newton's second law:

Fnet = ma

Fnet = Fapp - Ff

Fapp is the applied force

Ff is the frictional force = umg

The equation becomes:

Fapp - Ff = ma

Fapp-umg = ma

Fapp - 0.85(13.5)(9.8) = 13.5(3.5)

Fapp - 109.0125 = 47.25

Fapp = 47.25+109.0125

Fapp = 156.2625N

Hence the applied force that caused the acceleration is 156.26N

Note that the acceleration of the car was assumed. Any value of acceleration can be used for the calculation.
