Answer:
F/2
Explanation:
In the first case, the two charges are Q1 and Q2 and the distance between them is r. K is the Coulomb's constant
Hence;
F= KQ1Q2/r^2 ------(1)
Where the charge on Q1 is doubled and the distance separating the charges is also doubled;
F= K2Q1 Q2/(2r)^2
F2= 2KQ1Q2/4r^2 ----(2)
F2= F/2
Comparing (1) and (2)
The magnitude of force acting on each of the two particles is;
F= F/2
C aluminum because it has iron.
Answer:
5.36 times bigger
Explanation:
The radius of the Earth is:
so its diameter is
The radius of Pluto is:
So its diameter is
So the ratio between the two diameters is
So the diameter of the Earth is 5.36 times bigger than the diameter of Pluto.
Answer:
Explanation:
An inelastic collision is one where 2 masses collide and stick together, moving as a single mass after the collision occurs. When we talk about this type of momentum conservation, the momentum is conserved always, but the kinetic momentum is not (the velocity changes when they collide). Because there is direction involved here, we use vector addition. The picture before the collision has the truck at a mass of 3520 kg moving north at a velocity of 18.5. The truck's momentum, then, is 3520(18.5) = 65100 kgm/s; coming at this truck is a car of mass 1480 kg traveling east at an unknown velocity. The car's momentum, then, is 1480v. The resulting vector (found when you pick up the car vector and stick the initial end of it to the terminal end of the truck's momentum vector) forms the hypotenuse of a right triangle where one leg is 65100 kgm/s, and the other leg is 1480v. Since we already know the final velocity of the 2 masses after the collision, we can use that to find the final momentum, which will serve as the resultant momentum vector in our equation (we'll get there in a sec). The final momentum of this collision is
p = mv and
p = (3520 + 1480)(13.6) so
p = 68000. Final momentum. The equation for this is a take-off of Pythagorean's Theorem and the one used to find the final magnitude of a resultant vector when you first began your vector math in physics. The equation is
which, in words, is
the final momentum after the collision is equal to the square root of the truck's momentum squared plus the car's momentum squared. Filling in:
and
and
and
and
so
v = 13.3 m/s at 72.6°
Answer:
The amount of matter in an object is its mass
An action that has the ability to change an object's state of motion is a force
The rate at which velocity changes over time is acceleration
Explanation:
- Mass is a scalar quantity that gives a measure of the amount of matter contained in an object/substance. The SI unit of the mass is the kilogram (kg). Mass is an intrinsec property of an object, that means that it does not change when the object is moved in another location.
- A force is a vector quantity, that indicates an action exerted on an object that changes the state of motion of the object. It is measured in Newtons (N). According to Newton's second law, the acceleration of an object is equal to the net force exerted on the object divided by its mass:
- Acceleration is a vector quantity, which is equal to the ratio between the change in velocity of an object and the time interval taken for that change to occur. It is measured in meters per second squared (). Mathematically, it is defined as
