Answer:

B it decreases

Explanation:

the movement of a positive test charge in the direction of an electric field would be like a mass falling downward within Earth's gravitational field. Both movements would be like going with nature and would occur without the need of work by an external force. This motion would result in the loss of potential energy

How much time does it take a rhino running at 40 m/s to run 250 m?​
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

Rhinoceroses are odd-toed ungulates native to sub-Saharan Africa and southern Asia, though all five living species have hugely contracted in range and number due to the influence of humans. Despite their titanic, tank-like bulk, rhinos can be amazingly swift: The fastest may reach at least 50 kilometers per hour (31 mph).

a sound pulse emitted underwater reflects off a school of fish and is detected at the same place 0.01 s later. how far away are
andrew-mc [135]
In fresh water sound waves travel at 1497m/s at 25 degrees, I'll assume that's the characteristics of the water.

If it's 0.01s then you need to divide the speed by 100 to get the, 14.97, however it gets there and back in that time so you need to halve it.

A straight segment of a current-carrying wire has a current element IL where I = 2.70 A and L = 3.20 cm i + 4.30 cm j. The segme
myrzilka [38]

The component of the force in negative z-direction is -0.144 N.

The given parameters;

  • <em>current in the wire, I = 2.7 A</em>
  • <em>length of the wire, L = (3.2 i + 4.3j) cm</em>
  • <em>magnetic filed, B = 1.24 i</em>

The force on the segment of the wire is calculated as follows;

F = ILBsin(\theta)

where;

  • <em>θ is the angle wire and magnetic field</em>

<em />

The force on the wire segment will be perpendicular in negative z-direction (applying right hand rule), so there won't be any x and y component of the force.

The angle between the wire and the magnetic field is calculated as follows;

\theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{y}{x} )\\\\\theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{4.3}{3.2} )\\\\\theta = 53.3 \ ^0

The magnitude of the wire length is calculated as follows;

|l | = \sqrt{3.2^2 + 4.3^2} = 5.36 \ cm = 0.0536 \ m

The component of the force in negative z-direction is calculated as;

F_z = -ILB sin(\theta)\\\\F_z = -2.7 \times 0.0536 \times 1.24 \times  sin(53.3)\\\\F_z = -0.144 \ N

Thus, the component of the force in negative z-direction is -0.144 N.

7. Nancy has a mass of 60 kg and sits on the very end of a 3.00 m long plank pivoted in the middle. How much torque must her co-
netineya [11]

Answer:

Torque = 882Nm

Explanation:

Torque = Mg×distance

But plank's is pivoted ,therefore distance=3/2=1.5m

Mass of Nancy=60jg

Acceleration due to gravity, g=9.8m/s^2

Torque= 60×9.8×1.5

Torque= 882Nm
