Answer:

Only 3 is true: The truck exerts the same amount of force on the car as the car exerts on the truck.

Explanation:

Compare the forces if the light truck is standing still when the car hits it.

1. The car exerts a greater amount of force on the truck than the truck exerts on the car. FALSE. This violates Newton 3rd Law of Action-Reaction.

2. The truck exerts a greater amount of force on the car than the car exerts on the truck. FALSE. This violates Newton 3rd Law of Action-Reaction.

3. The truck exerts the same amount of force on the car as the car exerts on the truck. TRUE. This is Newton 3rd Law of Action-Reaction. When there is a contact between objects, both exert on the other an equal and opposite force.

4. None of the answers correctly describes the situation. FALSE. 4 is true.

5. Neither exerts a force on the other. FALSE. If the car hits it then forces must come into play.

What is the proportionality between pressure and temperature, and the proportionality between atmospheric pressure and tempratur
Alborosie

According to Ideal gasTo solve this problem, the fastest relationship allows us to observe the proportionality between the two variables would be the one expressed in the ideal gas equation, which is

PV= NRT

Here

P = Pressure

V = Volume

N = Number of moles

R = Gas constant

T = Temperature

We can see that the pressure is proportional to the temperature, then

P \propto T

This relationship can be extrapolated to all the scenarios in which these two variables are related. As the pressure increases the temperature increases. The same goes for the pressure in the atmosphere, for which an increase in this will generate an increase in temperature. This variable can be observed in areas of different altitude. At higher altitude lower atmospheric pressure and lower temperature.

A snowball with a mass of 85 g hits the top hat of a 1.5 m tall snowman and sticks to it. the hat and the snowball, with a combi
LenaWriter [7]
Part (a): Velocity of the snowball
By conservation of momentu;
m1v1 + m2v2 = m3v3,

Where, m1 = mass of snowball, v1, velocity of snowball, m2 = mass of the hat, v2 = velocity of the hat, m3 = mass of snowball and the hat, v3 = velocity of snowball and the hut.

v2 = 0, and therefore,
85*v1 + 0 = 220*8 => v1 = 220*8/85 = 20.71 m/s

Part (b): Horizontal range
x = v3*t
But,
y = vy -1/2gt^2, but y = -1.5 m (moving down), vy =0 (no vertical velocity), g = 9.81 m/s^2

Substituting;
-1.5 = 0 - 1/2*9.81*t^2
1.5 = 4.905*t^2
t = Sqrt (1.5/4.905) = 0.553 seconds

Then,
x = 8*0.553 = 4.424 m

Answer:

The radius of the gold nucleus is 7.1x10⁻¹⁵m

Explanation:

The nearest distance is:

r=\frac{kze^{2} }{mpV^{2} } (eq. 1)

Where

z = atomic number of gold = 79

e = electron charge = 1.6x10⁻¹⁹C

k = electrostatic constant = 9x10⁹Nm²C²

energy of the particle = 32 MeV = 5.12x10⁻¹²J

At the potential energy is zero, all the energy will be kinetic energy:

E_{k} =\frac{1}{2} m V^{2}

Where

m = 4 mp = mass of proton

5.12x10^{-12} =\frac{1}{2} *4*m_{p}* V^{2} \\m_{p}* V^{2} = 2.56x10^{-12}

Replacing in equation 1

r=\frac{9x10^{9}*79*(1.6x10^{-19})^{2}   }{2.56x10^{-12} } =7.1x10^{-15} m

Two point charges are separated by 10 cm, with an attractive force between them of 15 N. Find the force between them when they a
suter [353]

Answer:

(a) the force is 8.876 N

(b) the magnitude of each charge is 4.085 μC

Explanation:

Part (a)

Given;

coulomb's constant, K = 8.99 x 10⁹ N.m²/C²

distance between two charges, r = 10 cm = 0.1 m

force between the two charges, F = 15 N

when the distance between the charges changes to 13 cm (0.13 m)

force between the two charges, F = ?

Apply Coulomb's law;

F = \frac{Kq_1q_2}{r^2} \\\\let \ Kq_1q_2 = C\\\\F =\frac{C}{r^2} \\\\C = Fr^2\\\\F_1r_1^2 = F_2r_2^2\\\\F_2 =\frac{F_1r_1^2}{r_2^2} \\\\F_2 = \frac{15*0.1^2}{0.13^2} \\\\F_2 = 8.876 \ N

Part (b)

the magnitude of each charge, if they have equal magnitude

F = \frac{KQ^2}{r^2}

where;

F is the force between the charges

K is Coulomb's constant

Q is the charge

r is the distance between the charges

F = \frac{KQ^2}{r^2} \\\\Q = \sqrt{\frac{Fr^2}{K} } \\\\Q =  \sqrt{\frac{15*(0.1)^2}{8.99*10^9} } = 4.085 *10^{-6} \ C\\\\Q = 4.085 \ \mu C
