Answer:

The answer is True.

Explanation:

Open circuit means incomplete flow of current in a circuit.

When switch is off, the electric current cannot flow throught the circuit for a complete circuit.

the magnitude of the electrical force acting between a +2.4x10-8c charge and 1+1.8x10-6 charge that are separated by 1.008m is

Temka [501]

Answer:

3.83×10¯⁴ N

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Charge 1 (q₁) = +2.4x10¯⁸ C

Charge 2 (q₂) = +1.8x10¯⁶ C

Distance apart (r) = 1.008 m

Electrical constant (K) = 9×10⁹ Nm²/C²

Force (F) =?

The magnitude of the electrical force acting between the two charges can be obtained as follow:

F = Kq₁q₂ / r²

F = 9×10⁹ × 2.4x10¯⁸ × 1.8x10¯⁶ / (1.008)²

F = 0.0003888 / 1.016064

F = 3.83×10¯⁴ N

Thus the magnitude of the electrical force acting between the two charges is 3.83×10¯⁴ N

The real place should theoretically have space for 87 passengers if it is an exact model and doesn't have modifications in the seat numbers.

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

When fired from (1,3) the rocket will hit the target at (4,0)

When fired from (2, 2.5) the rocket will hit the target at (12,0)

When fired from (2.5, 2.4) the rocket will hit the target at $(\frac{35}{2},0)$

When fired from (4,2.25) the rocket will hit the target at (40,0)

Explanation:

All of the parts of the problem are solved in the same way, so let's start with the first point (1,3).

Let's assume that the rocket's trajectory will be a straight line, so what we need to do here is to find the equation of the line tangent to the trajectory of the airplane and then find the x-intercept of such a line.

In order to find the line tangent to the graph of the trajectory of the airplane, we need to start by finding the derivative of such a function:

$y=2+\frac{1}{x}$

$y=2+x^{-1}$

$y'=-x^{-2}$

$y'=-\frac{1}{x^{2}}$

so, we can substitute the x-value of the given point into the derivative, in this case x=1, so:

$y'=-\frac{1}{x^{2}}$

$y'=-\frac{1}{(1)^{2}}$

m=y'=-1

so we can now use this slope and the point-slope form of the line to find the equation of the line tangent to the trajectory of the airplane so we get:

$y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})$

$y-3=-1(x-1})$

$y-3=-1x+1$

$y=-x+1+3$

$y=-x+4$

So we can now set y=0 so find the x-coordinate where the rocket hits the x-axis.

$-x+4=0$

and solve for x

x=4

so, when fired from (1,3) the rocket will hit the target at (4,0)

Now, let's calculate the coordinates where the rocket will hit the target if fired from (2, 2.5)

so, we can substitute the x-value of the given point into the derivative, in this case x=2, so:

$y'=-\frac{1}{x^{2}}$

$y'=-\frac{1}{(2)^{2}}$

$m=y'=-\frac{1}{4}$

so we can now use this slope and the point-slope form of the line to find the equation of the line tangent to the trajectory of the airplane so we get:

$y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})$

$y-2.5=-\frac{1}{4}(x-2})$

$y-2.5=-\frac{1}{4}x+\frac{1}{2}$

$y=-\frac{1}{4}x+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{5}{2}$

$y=-\frac{1}{4}x+3$

So we can now set y=0 so find the x-coordinate where the rocket hits the x-axis.

$-\frac{1}{4}x+3=0$

and solve for x

x=12

so, when fired from (2, 2.5) the rocket will hit the target at (12,0)

Now, let's calculate the coordinates where the rocket will hit the target if fired from (2.5, 2.4)

so, we can substitute the x-value of the given point into the derivative, in this case x=2.5, so:

$y'=-\frac{1}{x^{2}}$

$y'=-\frac{1}{(2.5)^{2}}$

$m=y'=-\frac{4}{25}$

so we can now use this slope and the point-slope form of the line to find the equation of the line tangent to the trajectory of the airplane so we get:

$y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})$

$y-2.4=-\frac{4}{25}(x-2.5})$

$y-2.4=-\frac{4}{25}x+\frac{2}{5}$

$y=-\frac{4}{25}x+\frac{2}{5}+2.4$

$y=-\frac{4}{25}x+\frac{14}{5}$

So we can now set y=0 so find the x-coordinate where the rocket hits the x-axis.

$-\frac{4}{25}x+\frac{14}{5}=0$

and solve for x

$x=\frac{35}{20}$

so, when fired from (2.5, 2.4) the rocket will hit the target at $(\frac{35}{2},0)$

Now, let's calculate the coordinates where the rocket will hit the target if fired from (4, 2.25)

so, we can substitute the x-value of the given point into the derivative, in this case x=4, so:

$y'=-\frac{1}{x^{2}}$

$y'=-\frac{1}{(4)^{2}}$

$m=y'=-\frac{1}{16}$

so we can now use this slope and the point-slope form of the line to find the equation of the line tangent to the trajectory of the airplane so we get:

$y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})$

$y-2.25=-\frac{1}{16}(x-4})$

$y-2.25=-\frac{1}{16}x+\frac{1}{4}$

$y=-\frac{1}{16}x+\frac{1}{4}+2.25$

$y=-\frac{1}{16}x+\frac{5}{2}$

So we can now set y=0 so find the x-coordinate where the rocket hits the x-axis.

$-\frac{1}{16}x+\frac{5}{2}=0$

and solve for x

$x=40$

so, when fired from (4,2.25) the rocket will hit the target at (40,0)

I uploaded a graph that represents each case.

How did the magnet’s density measurement using the Archimedes’ Principle compare to the density measurement using the calculated

guapka [62]

Answer:

The two methods will yield different results as one is subject to experimental errors that us the Archimedes method of measurement, the the density measurement method will be more accurate

Explanation:

This is because the density method using the calculated volume will huve room for less errors that's occur in practical method i.e Archimedes method due to human error
