Answer:

d) Sofia.

Explanation:

If they walked down a straight road, their displacement will be 4 miles. However, their position depends on the origin of a coordinate system which could be located anywhere. If the origin of the coordinate system was at the starting point of their walk, then and only then, you can say that their position is also 4 miles.

If the charge on the negative plate of the capacitor is 121 nano-Coulomb, how many excess electrons are on that plate? Write you
Julli [10]

Answer:

n = 756.25 giga electrons

Explanation:

It is given that,

If the charge on the negative plate of the capacitor, Q=121\ nC=121\times 10^{-9}\ C

Let n is the number of excess electrons are on that plate. Using the quantization of charges, the total charge on the negative plate is given by :

Q=ne

e is the charge on electron

n=\dfrac{Q}{e}

n=\dfrac{121\times 10^{-9}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}

n=7.5625\times 10^{11}

or

n = 756.25 giga electrons

So, there are 756.25 giga electrons are on the plate. Hence, this is the required solution.

Two friends, Al and Jo, have a combined mass of 195 kg. At the ice skating rink, they stand close together on skates, at rest an
ddd [48]

Answer:

Al's mass is 102.92  kg  

Explanation:

As there are no external forces in the horizontal direction, the horizontal net force must be zero:

F_{net} = 0

As the force is the derivative in time of the momentum, this means that the horizontal momentum is constant:

F_{net} = \frac{dp_{horizontal}}{dt} = 0

p_{horizontal_i }= p_{horizontal_f}

where the suffix i and f means initial and final respectively.

The initial momentum will be:

p_{horizontal_}i = m_{Al} \ v_{Al_i} + m_{Jo} \ v_{Jo_i}

But, as they are at rest, initially

p_{horizontal_i} = m_{Al} * 0 + m_{Jo} * 0

p_{horizontal_i} = 0

So, this means:

p_{horizontal_f} = m_{Al} \ v_{Al_f} + m_{Jo} \ v_{Jo_f} = 0

We know that the have an combined mass of 195 kg:

m_{total} = m_{Al} + m_{Jo} = 195 \ kg.

so:

m_{Jo} = 195 \ kg - m_{Al}.

m_{Al} \ v_{Al_f} + (195 \ kg - m_{Al}) \ v_{Jo_f} = 0

m_{Al} \  v_{Al_f} - m_{Al} \  v_{Jo_f}= - 195 \ kg \  v_{Jo_f}

m_{Al} \ (v_{Al_f} - v_{Jo_f})= - 195 \ kg \ v_{Jo_f}

m_{Al} = \frac{ - 195 \ kg \ v_{Jo_f} } {  v_{Al_f} - v_{Jo_f} }

m_{Al} = \frac{195 \ kg  \ v_{Jo_f} } {    v_{Jo_f} - v_{Al_f} }

Now, we can use the values:

v_{Al_f}= 10.2 \frac{m}{s}

v_{Jo_f}= - 11.4 \frac{m}{s}

where the minus sign appears as they are moving at opposite directions

m_{Al} = \frac{195 \ kg  ( - 11.4 \frac{m}{s} ) } {   (- 11.4 \frac{m}{s}) - 10.2 \frac{m}{s} }

m_{Al} = 102.92 \ kg

and this is the Al's mass.

A 5.0-kg box is pulled by a horizontal force F applied to the top of the box. When the box meets a low doorstep, it begins to ro
NARA [144]

Answer:

the required minimum magnitude of the force F is 21 N

Explanation:

Given the data in the question,

m = 5 kg

width  = 60 cm

height = 80 cm

Let force is F represent in the image below,

so when the block about to rotate normal shifted to edge of cube

mg(w/2) = Fh

F = mg(w/2) / h

we know that g = 9.8 m/s²

we substitute

F = (5 × 9.8 ( 60/2)) / 70

F = (5 × 9.8 × 30 ) / 70

F = 1470 / 70

F = 21 N

Therefore, the required minimum magnitude of the force F is 21 N
