The distance between the two charges is $0.3 m$

Explanation:

The electrostatic force between two charged objects is given by Coulomb's law:

$F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}$

where:

$k=8.99\cdot 10^9 Nm^{-2}C^{-2}$ is the Coulomb's constant

$q_1, q_2$ are the charges of the two objects

r is the separation between the two charges

In this problem, we are given the following:

$q_1 = 8\cdot 10^{-5} C$

$q_2 = 3\cdot 10^{-5} C$

$F=2.4\cdot 10^2 N$

Therefore, we can rearrange the equation to solve for r, the distance between the two charges:

$r=\sqrt{\frac{kq_1 q_2}{F}}=\sqrt{\frac{(8.99\cdot 10^9)(8\cdot 10^{-5})(3\cdot 10^{-5})}{2.4\cdot 10^2}}=0.3 m$

Benzene is a starting material in the synthesis of nylon fibers and polystyrene (styrofoam). Its specific heat capacity is 1.74

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer: $62.7^0C$

Explanation:

The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degree Celsius is called the specific heat capacity.

$Q=m\times c\times \Delta T$

Q = Heat absorbed= 16.7 kJ = 16700 J (1kJ=1000J)

m= mass of benzene = 225 g

c = specific heat capacity = 1.74 J/gK

Initial temperature of the water = $T_i$ = 20.0°C = 293 k $0^0C=273K$

Final temperature of the water = $T_f$ = ?

Change in temperature , $\Delta T=T_f-T_i$

Putting in the values, we get:

$16700=225\times 1.74\times (T_f-293)$

$T_f=335.6K=62.7^0C$

The final temperature will be $62.7^0C$

1.15) What distance will 650 joules of work move a box weighing 50 newtons?

son4ous [18]

Answer:

The answer is 13 however make sure if they ask for a certain measurement like meter answer it by saying 13 meters.

Explanation:

This basically turns into basic algebra if you know the formula for work. The formula for work is W=F*d

Here are the variables that you know 650J=50N*d so you need d.

All you do is divide 650J by 50N and you get a total of 13 (meters since I don't know what they want you to put it in).

Answer:

Orbital Time Period is 24 years

Explanation:

This can be explained by the definition of time period.

Time period can be defined as the time taken by an object to complete one cycle, here, time taken to complete one revolution.

Also, we know that an extra solar planet which is also called as an exo planet is that planet which is outside our solar system and orbits any star other than our sun. The system in consideration is extra solar system with a single planet.

Therefore, the time taken by the parent star to move about its mass center is the orbital time period that is 24 years.
