Answer:

Electric potential = V = 33 KV

Explanation:

The breakdown is an electric stress phenomenon. The value of electric field at which breakdown of dry air occur is 3 × 10^6 V/m. So,

E = 3 × 10^6 V/m

d = 1.1 cm = 1.1 × 10^-2 m  

We know that:

E = V/d  

V = Ed  

V = (3 × 10^6)( 1.1 × 10^-2)

V = 33000 V  

V = 33 KV

The electric field is given by volts/distance: E= \frac{V}{d}.  The breakdown voltage of dry air is about 3x10^6V/m.  So solving for V we get
V=Ed
or V=(3e6V/m)(0.011m)=33,000V

A yellow train of mass 100 kg is moving at 8 m/s towards an orange train of mass 200 kg traveling on the opposite direction on t
vladimir1956 [14]
Mass of yellow train, my = 100 kg

Initial Velocity of yellow train, = 8 m/s

mass of orange train = 200 kg

Initial Velocity of orange train = -1 m/s (since it moves opposite direction to the yellow train, we will put negative to show the opposite direction)

To calculate the initial momentum of both trains, we will use the principle of conservation of momentum which

The sum of initial momentum = the sum of final momentum


Since the question only wants the sum of initial momentum,

(100)(8) + (200)(-1) = 600 m/s

How can a model be created to predict how forces affect objects at a distance?
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

Gravitational force increases as the masses of the objects increase and decreases as the distance between the objects increases. Balanced forces acting on an object cause no change in the motion of the object. When unbalanced forces act on an object, the sum of the forces is not equal to zero.

Antonina throws a coin straight up from a height of
vichka [17]

Answer:

s=vt-\frac{1}{2}gt^2

Explanation:

We could use the following suvat equation:

s=vt-\frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

s is the vertical displacement of the coin

v is its final velocity, when it hits the water

t is the time

g is the acceleration of gravity

Taking upward as positive direction, in this problem we have:

s = -1.2 m

g=-9.8 m/s^2

And the coin reaches the water when

t = 1.3 s

Substituting these data, we can find v:

v=\frac{s}{t}+\frac{1}{2}gt=-\frac{1.2}{1.3}+\frac{1}{2}(-9.8)(1.3)=-7.3 m/s

where the negative sign means the direction is downward.
