Static electricity occurs when two objects have different electrical charges. When objects are rubbed together, the electrons fr

om one object can hop to the other, causing them to take on a positive or negative charge. Positively charged objects repel each other, so when your hair stands on end, that is due to a positive electrical charge transferred from another object, usually a hat or hair brush. What would be one way to avoid static electricity

An electron is moving east in a uniform electric field of 1.47 {\rm N/C} directed to the west. At point A, the velocity of the e
zimovet [89]

Answer:

a) v = 6.25\times 10^{5} m/s

b) v = 1.73\times 10^{4} m/s

Explanation:

Given data:

Electric field = 1.47 N/C

velocity of electron is 4.55\times 10^5 m/s

distance of point b from point A is 0.55 m

we know that acceleration of particle is given as

a) for electron

a =\frac{q E}{m}

a = \frac{1.6\times 10^{-19} \times 1.47}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}

a = 2.58\times 10^{11} m/s^2

from equation of motion we have

v^2 = u^2 + 2aS

      = 20.7025 \times 10^{10} + 2\times 2.58\times 10^{11} \times 0.355

v = 6.25\times 10^{5} m/s

b) for proton

a = \frac{1.6\times 10^{-19} \times -1.47}{1.6\times 10^{-27}}

a = -1.41\times 10^{8} m/s^2

from equation of motion we have

v^2 = u^2 + 2aS

       = 3.8025 \times 10^{8} - 2\times 1.41\times 10^{8} \times 0.355

v = 1.73\times 10^{4} m/s

A total of 875 J of work was done when a force of 175 N was exerted on a box to move it. How far was the box moved
Vladimir [108]
Work = Force times Distance
W = Fd

Given W = 750J, F = 125N;

750 = 125d

Solving for d:
d = 750/125
d = 6

The box moved a distance of 6 meters.

There are 2.2 pounds in a kilogram. if a boys mass is 40kg, what is his height in pounds?
sasho [114]
The simplest way to do this is to set up equivalent fractions, like this- 

\frac{1}{2.2} = \frac{40}{x}

Solve for x by using cross multiplication.

40*2.2= 88
1*x=88
x=88

Therefore, the boy weighs 88lbs.
