Answer:

1.42 s

Explanation:

The equation for free fall of an object starting from rest is generally written as

s=\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

s is the vertical distance covered

a is the acceleration due to gravity

t is the time

On this celestial body, the equation is

s=10.04 t^2

this means that

\frac{1}{2}g = 10.04

so the acceleration of gravity on the body is

g=2\cdot 10.04 = 20.08 m/s^2

The velocity of an object in free fall starting from rest is given by

v=gt

In this case,

g = 20.08 m/s^2

So the time taken to reach a velocity of

v = 28.6 m/s

is

t=\frac{v}{g}=\frac{28.6 m/s}{20.08 m/s^2}=1.42 s

Lostsunrise [7]
Relatively hot objects emit visible light.
Some examples: 
==> the wire coils in the toaster; 
==> the spoon that you stuck in the flame on the stove;
==> the fine wire in the lightbulb when current goes through it.

VERY radioactive objects also do that.  But if you're actually
standing there watching an object that's THAT radioactive,
then you're in big trouble.

A uniformly charged ball of radius a and charge –Q is at the center of a hollowmetal shell with inner radius b and outer radius
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

<u>r < a:</u>

E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Qr}{a^3}

<u>r = a:</u>

E = \frac{1}{4\pi a^2}\frac{Q}{\epsilon_0}

<u>a < r < b:</u>

E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Q}{r^2}

<u>r = b:</u>

E = \frac{1}{4\pi b^2}\frac{Q}{\epsilon_0}

<u>b < r < c:</u>

E = 0

<u>r = c:</u>

E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Q}{c^2}

<u>r < c:</u>

E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Q}{r^2}

Explanation:

Gauss' Law will be applied to each region to find the E-field.

\int \vec{E}d\vec{a} = \frac{Q_{encl}}{\epsilon_0}

An imaginary sphere is drawn with radius r, which is equal to the point where the E-field is asked. The area of this imaginary sphere is multiplied by E, and this is equal to the charge enclosed by this imaginary surface divided by ε0.

<u>r<a:</u>

Since the ball is uniformly charged and not hollow, then the enclosed charge can be found by the following method: If the total ball has a charge -Q and volume V, then the enclosed part of the ball has a charge Q_enc and volume V_enc. Then;

\frac{Q}{V} = \frac{Q_{encl}}{V_{encl}}\\\frac{Q}{\frac{4}{3}\pi a^3} = \frac{Q_{encl}}{\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3}\\Q_{encl} = \frac{Qr^3}{a^3}

Applying Gauss' Law:

E4\pi r^2 = \frac{-Qr^3}{\epsilon_0 a^3}\\E = -\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Qr}{a^3}\\E = \frac{r}{4\pi a^3}\frac{Q}{\epsilon_0}

The minus sign determines the direction of the field, which is towards the center.

<u>At r = a: </u>

E = \frac{1}{4\pi a^2}\frac{Q}{\epsilon_0}

<u>At a < r < b:</u>

The imaginary surface is drawn between the inner surface of the metal sphere and the smaller ball. In this case the enclosed charge is equal to the total charge of the ball, -Q.

<u />E4\pi r^2 = \frac{-Q}{\epsilon_0}\\E = -\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Q}{r^2}<u />

<u>At r = b:</u>

<u />E = -\frac{1}{4\pi b^2}\frac{Q}{\epsilon_0}<u />

Again, the minus sign indicates the direction of the field towards the center.

<u>At b < r < c:</u>

The hollow metal sphere has a net charge of +2Q. Since the sphere is a conductor, all of its charges are distributed across its surface. No charge is present within the sphere. The smaller ball has a net charge of -Q, so the inner surface of the metal sphere must possess a net charge of +Q. Since the net charge of the metal sphere is +2Q, then the outer surface of the metal should possess +Q.

Now, the imaginary surface is drawn inside the metal sphere. The total enclosed charge in this region is zero, since the total charge of the inner surface (+Q) and the smaller ball (-Q) is zero. Therefore, the Electric region in this region is zero.

E = 0.

<u>At r < c:</u>

The imaginary surface is drawn outside of the metal sphere. In this case, the enclosed charge is +Q (The metal (+2Q) plus the smaller ball (-Q)).

E4\pi r^2 = \frac{Q}{\epsilon_0}\\E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Q}{r^2}

<u>At r = c:</u>

E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Q}{c^2}

A heavy boy and a lightweight girl are balanced on a massless seesaw. The boy moves backward, increasing his distance from the p
victus00 [196]

Answer:

The side the boy is sitting on will tilt downward.

Explanation:

According to the law of moments when the same force is applied at a greater distance from the pivot then the effect of moment is greater about that point.

<u>Mathematically momentum is given as:</u>

M=F\times r

where:

F is the applied force at a distance 'r' acting in a direction perpendicular to the line joining the point of application and the hinge.

  • Moment is the rotational effect of the applied force on the body.

<em>When the boy of a heavier mass than the girl was sitting on a balanced see-saw then it is certain that he was closer to the hinge than the girl to balance the turning effect (in case of an unbiased see-saw). When the body moves farther his weight is same but the radial distance from the hinge increases which increases his moment of weight.</em>
