Long, long ago, on a planet far, far away, a physics experiment was carried out. First, a 0.210-kg ball with zero net charge was

dropped from rest at a height of 1.00 m. The ball landed 0.350 s later. Next, the ball was given a net charge of 7.70 μC and dropped in the same way from the same height. This time the ball fell for 0.650 s before landing. A.What is the electric potential at a height of 1.00m above the ground on this planet, given that the electric potential at ground level is zero? (Air resistance can be ignored.)

Answer:

\Delta V=316167V

Explanation:

The difference of electric potential between two points is given by the formula \Delta V=Ed, where <em>d</em> is the distance between them and<em> E</em> the electric field in that region, assuming it's constant.

The electric field formula is E=\frac{F}{q}, where <em>F </em>is the force experimented by a charge <em>q </em>placed in it.

Putting this together we have \Delta V=\frac{Fd}{q}, so we need to obtain the electric force the charged ball is experimenting.

On the second drop, the ball takes more time to reach the ground, this means that the electric force is opposite to its weight <em>W</em>, giving a net force N=W-F. On the first drop only <em>W</em> acts, while on the second drop is <em>N</em> that acts.

Using the equation for accelerated motion (departing from rest) d=\frac{at^2}{2}, so we can get the accelerations for each drop (1 and 2) and relate them to the forces by writting:

a_1=\frac{2d}{t_1^2}

a_2=\frac{2d}{t_2^2}

These relate with the forces by Newton's 2nd Law:

W=ma_1

N=ma_2

Putting all together:

N=W-F=ma_1-F=ma_2

Which means:

F=ma_1-ma_2=m(a_1-a_2)=m(\frac{2d}{t_1^2}-\frac{2d}{t_2^2})=2md(\frac{1}{t_1^2}-\frac{1}{t_2^2})

And finally we substitute:

\Delta V=\frac{Fd}{q}=\frac{2md^2}{q}(\frac{1}{t_1^2}-\frac{1}{t_2^2})

Which for our values means:

\Delta V=\frac{2(0.21Kg)(1m)^2}{7.7\times10^{-6}C}(\frac{1}{(0.35s)^2}-\frac{1}{(0.65s)^2})=316167V

What is the frequency of X-rays of 10 nm wavelength? 6 x 1016 Hz 3 x 1016 Hz 3.00 Hz 6 x 108 Hz
Evgesh-ka [11]

The frequency of any wave is  (wave speed) / (wavelength) .

The speed of light is  3 x 10⁸ m/s.
If the wavelength is 10 nm (10⁻⁸ m) , then the frequency is

                         (3 x 10⁸) / (10⁻⁸)  =  <em>3 x 10¹⁶ Hz</em>

That's 30 million gigahertz !

Grace pushes her foot against the wall with a force of 35 N while she stands
Airida [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. 0.64 m/s²

Explanation:

According to the Newton's Second law of motion acceleration of an object by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force.

Mathematically,

                           F ∝ a

                           F = ma

Given data:

Force = F = 35 N

Mass = m = 55 kg

acceleration = a = ?

                           F = ma

                           a = F/m

                           a = 35/55

                          a = 0.64 m/s²

What is the upward force that balances the weight of an object on a surface
Alina [70]

Answer:

The support force/ Normal reaction force

Explanation:

Refer to Newtons third law.

"The third law states that when a force acts on a body due to another body, then an equal and opposite force acts simultaneously on that body"

Since we have a downward force acting on your object, in this case gravity/weight, there is an equal and opposite force given off by the surface the object is on. This is called the support force or the normal reaction force

What is the twisted ladder shape of the DNA called? 3D model nucleotides double helix single strand
jeyben [28]

Answer: double helix

Explanation: Double helix is the description of the structure of a DNA molecule. A DNA molecule consists of two strands that wind around each other like a twisted ladder. Each strand has a backbone made of alternating groups of sugar (deoxyribose) and phosphate groups.

Hope this helps
