Answer:

In order to make this force twice as strong, F' = 2 F, the distance would have to be changed to half i.e. r' = r/2.

Explanation :

The electric force between two point charges is directly proportional to the product of charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between charges. It is given by :

F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

r is the separation between charges  

F\propto \dfrac{1}{r^2}

r=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{F}}

If F'= 2F

r'=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2F} }

In order to make this force twice as strong, F' = 2 F, the distance would have to be changed to half i.e. r'=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2F} }. Hence, this is the required solution.

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

a) - 72.5°c

b) pressure = 3625.13 Pa

c) density =  0.063 kg/m^3

d) it is a subsonic aircraft

Explanation:

a) Determine Temperature

Temperature at 19.5 km ( 19500 m )

T = -131 + ( 0.003 * altitude in meters )

  =  -131 + ( 0.003 * 19500 ) = - 72.5°c

b) Determine pressure and density at 19.5 km altitude

Given :

Po (atmospheric pressure at sea level )  = 101kpa

R ( gas constant of air ) = 0.287 KJ/Kgk

T = -72.5°c ≈ 200.5 k

pressure = 3625.13 Pa

hence density = 0.063 kg/m^3

attached below is the remaining part of the solution

C) determine if the aircraft is subsonic or super sonic

Velocity ( v ) = \sqrt{CRT}  =  \sqrt{1.4*287*200.5 } = 283.8 m/s

hence it is a subsonic aircraft

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

y = 67.6 feet,   y = 114.4/ (22 - 3t)

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use that light travels in a straight line and some trigonometric relationships, the symbols are in the attached diagram

Large triangle Projector up to the screen

         tan θ = y / L

For the small triangle. Projector up to the person

         tan θ = y₀ / (L-d)

The angle is the same, so we equate the two equations

         y₀ / (L -d) = y / L

         y = y₀  L / (L-d)

The distance from the screen (d), we look for it with kinematics

         v = d / t

        d = v t

we replace

         y = y₀ L / (L - v t)

         y = 5.2 22 / (22 - 3 t)

         y = 114.4 (22 - 3t)⁻¹

This is the equation of the shadow height change as a function of time

For the suggested distance the shadow has a height of

           y = 114.4 / (22-13)

           y = 67.6 feet

A bullet B of mass mB traveling with a speed v0 = 1400 m/s ricochets off a fixed steel plate A of mass mA. Let mA ≫ mB so that i
Greeley [361]

Answer:

Rebounce angle is 345°

Rebounce speed is 989.95m/s

Explanation:

Calculate the x  component of the velocity of the bullet before impact by using the following relation:

Vbx= Vb Cos thetha

Here,  is the initial velocity of the bullet, Vo = 1400m/s and is the incidence angle of the bullet.= theta = 15°

Substituting

Vbx = Cos15 ×1400 = 1352.30m/s

Calculate the y component using the relation:

Vby = Vo Sin theta

Vby = sin 15° × 1400

Vby = 362.35m/s

The rebounce angle = 360 - incidence angle

Rebounce angle =( 360 - 15)° = 345°

The rebound speed V' = Vby - Vbx

V' = (1352.30 - 362.35)m/s

V' = 989.95 m/s
