Answer:

C. newtons/meter

Explanation:

To find the units of spring constant you can use the hook's law, which says,

F = k × x where

F = force (unit Newton)

k = spring constant

x = expansion or contraction ( unit m)

So by this equation you can get that

k = F / X

So you get the units as N/m

A proton orbits a long charged wire, making 1.80 ×106 revolutions per second. The radius of the orbit is 1.20 cm What is the wir

Fantom [35]

Answer:

linear charge density = -9.495 × $10^{-34}$ C/m

Explanation:

given data

revolutions per second = 1.80 × $10^{6}$

radius = 1.20 cm

solution

we know that when proton to revolve around charge wire then centripetal force is require to be in orbit of radius around provide by electric force

- q × E = m × w² × r ..................1

- 9 × $10^{9}$ × $\frac{2*linear\ charge\ density}r}$ q = m × w² × r ............2

and w = $\frac{2*\pi}{T}$

w = $\frac{d\theta }{dt}$

w = 1.80 × $10^{6}$ × $\frac{2*\pi}{1}$

w = 11304000 rad/s

so here from equation 2

- 9 × $10^{9}$ × $\frac{2*linear\ charge\ density}{0.012}$ 1.80 × $10^{6}$ = 1.672 × $10^{-27}$ × 11304000² × 0.0120

linear charge density = -9.495 × $10^{-34}$ C/m

Find the mass of a body if the acceleration the body used to move is given as 5 m/s-2 and the force of the body is 30N take g=10

Aleonysh [2.5K]

The mass of a body if the acceleration the body used to move is given as 5 m/s-2 will be 3 kg.

<h3>What is force?</h3>

Force is defined as the push or pulls applied to the body. Sometimes it is used to change the shape, size, and direction of the body.

Force is defined as the product of mass and acceleration. Its unit is Newton.

Given data;

Force,F = 30 N

Mass,m = kg

Acceleration,a = 5 m/s²

The force is found as;

F=ma

30 N =m kg × 5 m/s²

m=3 kg

Hence the mass of a body will be 3 kg.

Some drops a ball off of the top of a 125-m-tall building. In this prob-lem, you will be solving for the time it takes the ball

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

t = 5.05 s

Explanation:

This is a kinetic problem.

a) to solve it we must fix a reference system, let's use a fixed system on the floor where the height is 0 m

b) in this system the equations of motion are

y = v₀ t + ½ g t²

where v₀ is the initial velocity that is v₀ = 0 and g is the acceleration of gravity that always points towards the center of the Earth

e) y = 0 + ½ g t²

t = √ (2y / g)

t = √(2 125 / 9.8)

t = 5.05 s

the video identifies the force pair produced when an apple falls through the air. which force belongs in a free-body diagram of

trapecia [35]

The free-body diagram of an apple falling through the air has weight of the apple pointing downwards and the air-resistance on the apple acting upwards.

When an object falls from up to the ground, the object falls under in the influence of acceleration due to gravity.

The vertical component of the force on the apple as it falls trough the air is given as;

∑Fy = 0

Fₙ - W = 0

Fₙ = W

where;

<em>Fₙ is the frictional force on the apple acting upwards</em>
<em>W is the weight of the apple acting downwards</em>

The free-body diagram of the apple is represented as follows;

↑ Fₙ

↓ W

Thus, the free-body diagram of an apple falling through the air has weight of the apple pointing downwards and the air-resistance on the apple acting upwards.
