Given :

Steve walks from his house 5 km South then turns east and walks 2 km. Then he walks 9 km North to his older sister's house. She gives him a ride to his friend Fred's house 2 km West.

To Find :

The total distance covered by Steve .

Solution :

We know , distance is the actual measurement space between two points .

Now , total distance travelled by Steve is the sum of all distance travelled .

T=5+2+9+2\\\\T=18\ km

So , total distance covered by Steve is 18 km .

Hence , this is the required solution .

Is it possible for an object to be in motion without any external force applied? justify
Rudiy27
Newton’s first law is commonly stated as:
An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion.
However, this is missing an important element related to forces. We could expand it by stating:
An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion at a constant speed and direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
By the time Newton came along, the prevailing theory of motion—formulated by Aristotle—was nearly two thousand years old. It stated that if an object is moving, some sort of force is required to keep it moving. Unless that moving thing is being pushed or pulled, it will simply slow down or stop. Right?
This, of course, is not true. In the absence of any forces, no force is required to keep an object moving. An object (such as a ball) tossed in the earth’s atmosphere slows down because of air resistance (a force). An object’s velocity will only remain constant in the absence of any forces or if the forces that act on it cancel each other out, i.e. the net force adds up to zero. This is often referred to as equilibrium. The falling ball will reach a terminal velocity (that stays constant) once the force of air resistance equals the force of gravity.

Hope this help

Answer:

The time constant is 1.049.

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge q{t}= 0.65 q_{0}

We need to calculate the time constant

Using expression for charging in a RC circuit

q(t)=q_{0}[1-e^{-(\dfrac{t}{RC})}]

Where, \dfrac{t}{RC} = time constant

Put the value into the formula

0.65q_{0}=q_{0}[1-e^{-(\dfrac{t}{RC})}]

1-e^{-(\dfrac{t}{RC})}=0.65

e^{-(\dfrac{t}{RC})}=0.35

-\dfrac{t}{RC}=ln (0.35)

-\dfrac{t}{RC}=-1.049

\dfrac{t}{RC}=1.049

Hence, The time constant is 1.049.

What happens if :<br> . The test charge is not tiny.
docker41 [41]

The magnitude of the test charge must be small enough so that it does not disturb the issuance of the charges whose electric field we wish to measure otherwise the metric field will be different from the actual field.

<h3>How does test charge affect electric field?</h3>

As the quantity of authority on the test charge (q) is increased, the force exerted on it is improved by the same factor. Thus, the ratio of force per charge (F / q) stays the same.

Adjusting the amount of charge on the test charge will not change the electric field force.

<h3>What is a test charge used for?</h3>

The charge that is used to measure the electric field strength is directed to as a test charge since it is used to test the field strength. The test charge has a portion of charge denoted by the symbol q.

A 20kg object acceleration by a force of 200N with coefficient of kineticfriction is 0.4 what is acceleration of the object?​
Schach [20]

Answer:

<u>Given</u><em> </em><em>-</em><em> </em><u>M</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u>20 kg

k = 0.4

F = 200 N

<u>To </u><u>find </u><u>-</u><u> </u> acceleration

<u>Solution </u><u>-</u><u> </u>

F= kMA

200 = 0.4 * 20 * acceleration

200 = 8 * a

a = 8/200

a = 0.04 m s²

<h3>a = 0.04 m s²</h3>

A 221 g cart starts from rest and rolls in the right direction (positive) down an incline. The incline is at a height of 5 cm. A
Julli [10]

Answer:

1) p₀ = 0.219 kg m / s, p = 0, 2)  Δp = -0.219 kg m / s, 3) 100%

Explanation:

For the first part, which is speed just before the crash, we can use energy conservation

Initial. Highest point

            Em₀ = U = mg y

Final. Low point just before the crash

           Emf = K = ½ m v²

          Em₀ = Emf

          m g y = ½ m v²

           v = √ 2 g y

Let's calculate

           v = √ (2 9.8 0.05)

           v = 0.99 m / s

1) the moment before the crash is

           p₀ = m v

           p₀ = 0.221 0.99

           p₀ = 0.219 kg m / s

After the collision, the car's speed is zero, so its moment is zero.

           p = 0

2) change of momentum

           Δp = p - p₀

            Δp = 0- 0.219

            Δp = -0.219 kg m / s

3) the reason is

     Δp / p = 1

In percentage form it is 100%
