2.4s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Impulse = 12Ns

Force = 5N

Unknown:

Time taken for the force to act = ?

Solution:

Impulse is the change in momentum of a body when an external force acts on body for a period of time.

Impulse = force x time

Since the unknown in this problem is time, we make it the subject of the formula;

Time = $\frac{impulse}{force}$

Inputting the parameters;

Time taken for force to act = $\frac{12}{5}$ = 2.4s

What happens to the force between two charges when each charge is doubled and the distance between them is 1/4 its original

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

F' = 64 F

Explanation:

The electric force between charges is given by :

$F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}$

Where

q₁ and q₂ are charges

r is the distance between charges

When each charge is doubled and the distance between them is 1/4 its original magnitude such that,

q₁' = 2q₁, q₂' = 2q₂ and r' = (r/4)

New force,

$F'=\dfrac{kq_1'q_2'}{r'^2}$

Apply new values,

$F'=\dfrac{k\times 2q_1\times 2q_2}{(\dfrac{r}{4})^2}\\\\=\dfrac{k\times 4q_1q_2}{\dfrac{r^2}{16}}\\\\=64\times \dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}\\\\=64F$

So, the new force becomes 64 times the initial force.

Question: Point B is 25 km due east of point A. Starting from point A, a camel walks 20 km in

Korolek [52]

<em>Resultant angle; θ = 25.59° </em>

This question is dealing with bearings and distance.

We are told that from point A, the camel walks 20 km at 15° in the south of east direction.

Thus, d_s,e = 20 km

Resolving along the horizontal east direction gives; d_e = 20 cos 15

d_e = 19.32 km

Also, resolving along the vertical south direction gives; d_s = 20 sin 15

d_s = 5.18 km

Net vertical distance; d_vert = 8km - 5.18km = 2.72 km

Net horizontal distance; d_hor = 25km - 19.32 km = 5.68 km

Now, the resultant angle is given by;

tan θ = d_vert/d_hor

tan θ = 2.72/5.68

tan θ = 0.4789

θ = tan^(-1) 0.4789

θ = 25.59°
