What is the distance between two spheres, each with a charge of 2.5 x 10-6 c, when the force between them is 0.50 n?
lianna [129]
In this case, Coulomb's Law applies:

F = 1/(4πε₀) · (Q₁Q₂/r²)

You can solve it for r:

r = √[1/(4πε₀) · (Q₁Q₂/F<span>)]

Plugging in numbers:

r = </span>√[1/(4π·8.85×10⁻¹²) · (2.5×10⁻⁶)²/0.50] 
  = 0.335m

The correct answer is: the two charges are 0.335m apart.

It is 2058 and you are taking your grandchildren to Mars. At an elevation of 34.7 km above the surface of Mars, your spacecraft
Paul [167]

Answer: 1.23\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given

At an elevation of y=34.7\ km, spacecraft is dropping vertically at a speed of u=293\ m/s

Final velocity of the spacecraft is v=0

using equation of motion i.e. v^2-u^2=2as

Insert the values

\Rightarrow 0-(293)^2=2\times a\times (34.7\times 10^3)\\\\\Rightarrow a=-\dfrac{293^2}{2\times 34.7\times 10^3}\\\\\Rightarrow a=-1.23\ m/s^2

Therefore, magnitude of acceleration is 1.23\ m/s^2.

Describe how Rutherford's experiments changed the accepted scientific model of the atom.
lorasvet [3.4K]

Rutherford's model of the atom (ESAAQ) Rutherford carried out some experiments which led to a change in ideas around the atom. His new model described the atom as a tiny, dense, positively charged core called a nucleus surrounded by lighter, negatively charged electrons.

A constant net force of 20 N is applied to a 32kg car, causing it to speed up from 4.0 to 9.0 m/s. How long is the force applied
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

8 seconds

Explanation:

From Newton's second law;

Ft = m(v-u)

F = Force applied

t = time taken

v = final velocity

u  = initial velocity

20 * t = 32 (9 - 4)

20t = 32 * 5

t = 32 * 5/ 20

t = 8 seconds
