Force usually has the symbol F. It is a vector. What is the correct way to write the symbol to show that it is a vector?

Answer:

(B) F with a line on top

Explanation:

There is no one single 'correct' way to denote a vector. Most typical is a line over the symbol: \overline{F}, or an arrow over the symbol: \vec F. (However, if you want to use your own vector notation, for example, by printing the symbol in bold, then that is fine, too, as long as you clearly define this upfront),

A car moves in a straight line at 22.0 m/s for 10.0miles, then at 30.0 m/s for another 10.0miles. Calculate the car’s average sp
maw [93]

Answer: 25.38 m/s

Explanation:

We have a straight line where the car travels a total distance D, which is divided into two segments d=10 miles:

D=d+d=2d (1)

Where d=10mi \frac{1609.34 m}{1 mi}=16093.4 m

On the other hand, we know speed is defined as:

S=\frac{d}{t} (2)

Where t is the time, which can be isolated from (2):

t=\frac{d}{S} (3)

Now, for the first segment d=16093.4 m the car has a speed S_{1}=22m/s, using equation (3):

t_{1}=\frac{d}{S_{1}} (4)

t_{1}=\frac{16093.4 m}{22m/s} (5)

t_{1}=731.518 s (6) This is the time it takes to travel the first segment

For the second segment d=16093.4 m the car has a speed S_{1}=30m/s,  hence:

t_{2}=\frac{d}{S_{2}} (7)

t_{2}=\frac{16093.4 m}{30m/s} (8)

t_{2}=536.44 s (9) This is the time it takes to travel the secons segment

Having these values we can calculate the car's average speed S_{ave}:

S_{ave}=\frac{d + d}{t_{1} + t_{2}}=\frac{2d}{t_{1} + t_{2}} (10)

S_{ave}=\frac{2(16093.4 m)}{731.518 s +536.44 s} (11)

Finally:

S_{ave}=25.38 m/s

An oil droplet is sprayed into a uniform electric field of adjustable magnitude. The 0.11 g droplet hovers
ohaa [14]

Answer:

The direction of the field is downward, and negatively charged particles will experience an upwards force due to the field.

F = N e E     where E is the value of the field and N e the charge Q

M g = N e E      and M g is the weight of the drop

N = M g / (e E)

N = 1.1E-4 * 9.8 / (1.6E-19 * 370) = 1.1 * 9.8 / (1.6 * 370) * E15 = 1.82E13

.00011 kg is a very large drop

Q = N e = M g / E = .00011 * 9.8 / 370 = 2.91E-6 Coulombs

Check:     N = Q / e = 2.91E-6 / 1.6E-19 = 1.82E13   electrons

B. the ball tries to pull the rod’s electrons over to it.
C. the rod polarizes the metal.
D. the rod and the ball have opposite charges.
