The acceleration of the car is 0.75m/s²

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Speed, s = 15m/s

Time, t = 20 seconds

Acceleration, a = ?

We know,

$Acceleration = \frac{speed}{time}$

On substituting the value, we get:

$a = \frac{15}{20} \\\\a = 0.75 m/s^2$

Thus, the acceleration of the car is 0.75m/s²

The earth has a vertical electric field at the surface,pointing down, that averages 102 N/C. This field is maintained by various

Schach [20]

Answer:

$q = -461532.5 \ C$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The electric filed is $E = 102 \ N/C$

Generally according to Gauss law

=> $E A = \frac{q}{\epsilon_o }$

Given that the electric field is pointing downward , the equation become

$- E A = \frac{q}{\epsilon_o }$

Here $q$ is the excess charge on the surface of the earth

$A$ is the surface area of the of the earth which is mathematically represented as

$A = 4\pi r^2$

Where r is the radius of the earth which has a value $r = 6.3781*10^6 m$

substituting values

$A = 4 * 3.142 * (6.3781*10^6 \ m)^2$

$A =5.1128 *10^{14} \ m^2$

$q = -E * A * \epsilon _o$

Here $\epsilon_o$ s the permitivity of free space with value

$\epsilon_o = 8.85*10^{-12} \ m^{-3} \cdot kg^{-1}\cdot s^4 \cdot A^2$

substituting values

$q = -102 * 5.1128 *10^{14} * 8.85 *10^{-12}$

$q = -461532.5 \ C$

A. How far does a 100-newton force have to move to do 1,000 joules

Aloiza [94]

Work done by a force is given as the product of force and the distance moved by the force.

Work done is the product of force and the distance moved by the the force.

Work done = Force × distance

Thus, distance required by the 100 N force is given as:

Distance = work done/force

Distance = 1000/100 = 10 m

Distance to be moved is 10 m.

Force applied = work done/ distance

Force applied by the hoist = 500/2

Force applied by the hoist = 250 N

Distance moved in one push-up = 25 cm = 0.25 m

Work done by the athlete after one push-up = 250 × 0.25 m

Work done by the athlete = 62.5 J

Distance moved by the force = 0 m

Work done = 500 × 0 = 0 N

Therefore, for work to be done, force has to move a distance.

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

θ = 28.9

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use the law of refraction

n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂

where we use index 1 for air and index 2 for water where the fish is

sin θ₂ = n₁ / n₂ sin θ₁

in this case the air repair index is 1 and the water 1.33

we substitute

sin θ₂ = 1 / 1.33 sin t 40

sin θ = 0.4833

θ = sin⁻¹ 0.4833

θ = 28.9

explain how the temperature of the earth is maintained and how it’s affected by other factors (6 marks)

nikklg [1K]

Answer:

The temperature of the Earth depends on many factors, including the concentration of greenhouse gases such as water vapour, methane and carbon dioxide. The Earth's temperature also depends on the rates at which light radiation and infrared radiation are: absorbed by the Earth's surface and atmosphere.
