Divide the distance traveled by the time it took:

(100 m) / (4.2 s) ≈ 23.8 m/s

Consider a steel guitar string of initial length L=1.00 meter and cross-sectional area A=0.500 square millimeters. The Young's m

Reil [10]

Answer:

$\Delta l=0.015m$

Explanation:

We have given initial length of the steel guitar l = 1 m

Cross sectional area $A=0.5mm^2=0.5\times 10^{-6}m^2$

Young's modulus $\gamma=2\times 10^{11}Pa$

Force F = 1500 N

So stress $=\frac{force}{area}=\frac{1500}{0.5\times 10^{-6}}=3000\times 10^{-6}=3\times 10^{9}Pa$

We know that young's modulus $=\frac{stress}{strain}$

So $2\times 10^{11}=\frac{3\times 10^{9}}{strain}$

$strain=1.5\times 10^{-2}=0.015m$

Now strain $=\frac{\Delta l}{l}$

$0.015=\frac{\Delta l}{1}$

$\Delta l=0.015m$

As a laudably skeptical physics student, you want to test Coulomb's law. For this purpose, you set up a measurement in which a p

kherson [118]

Explanation:

The Coulomb's law states that the magnitude of each of the electric forces between two point-at-rest charges is directly proportional to the product of the magnitude of both charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them:

$F=\frac{kq_1q_2}{d^2}$

In this case we have an electron (-e) and a proton (e), so:

$F=-\frac{ke^2}{d^2}\\F=-\frac{8.99*10^9\frac{N\cdot m^2}{s^2}(1.6*10^{-19}C)^2}{(933*10^{-9}m)^2}\\F=-2.64*10^{-16}N$

In this case, the electric force is negative, therefore, the force is repulsive and its magnitude is:

$F=2.64*10^{-16}N$

A clam of mass 0.12 kg dropped by a seagull takes 3.0 s to hit the ground. [Neglect friction.]

jarptica [38.1K]

-- The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s².
So if there's no air resistance, the speed of a falling object
always increases by 9.8 m/s for every second it falls.

   Speed = (original speed) + (gravity x falling time)

-- If it has no vertical speed when it started, then at the end
of 3 seconds, its speed is

   = (0)    + (9.8 m/s² x 3 sec)

   Velocity = 29.4 m/s downward .
