Answer:

d) It will be cut to a fourth of the original force.

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electrostatic force between the charged objects is

F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q1 and q2 are the charges of the two objects

r is the separation between the two objects

In this problem, the initial distance is doubled, so

r' = 2r

Therefore, the new electrostatic force will be

F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{(r')^2}=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{(2r)^2}=\frac{1}{4}(k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2})=\frac{1}{4}F

So, the force will be cut to 1/4 of the original value.

1) not so long (maybe an hour or two)

2) access to information through the internet will be most affected if my computer and mobile phone run out of battery power.

3) yes, one should prepare for power outage. This can be done by having a standby alternative source of power like the use of inverters that stores electrical energy in form of chemical energy, and small internal combustion engine powered electric generators.

4) solar panels can be used to draw power from incident sun rays, this power can be stored in an inverter for future use in case of a power outage.

5) energy from the sun is converted into direct current which is then supplied to an accumulator in the opposite direction to its flow of current. When the energy is needed, it can be used directly, or converted to an alternating current. This is achieved by connecting its terminal to the supply. Electric field is generated by flow of ions and electrons within the working chemical (e.g lithium).

A cube of wood having an edge dimension of 20.0cm and a density of 650 kg /m³ floats on water. (b) What mass of lead should be p
schepotkina [342]

The mass added is "m" so the complete cube is submerged in the water is 2.8 kg.

<h3>What mass of lead should be placed on the cube?</h3>

Given: Side of the cube (a) = 20cm

The density of the cube (ρc) = $$650 kg/m^3

a) Applying the force balance, the buoyant force must be equal to the weight of the cube

ρcgV = ρg × (Ax)

Substituting the values in the above equation, we get

(650*(0.2 m)^3)=1000*(0.2 m)^2*x

x = 0.13

where x is the height of the cube in the water

$$A = a^2 is the area of the cross-section

ρ is the density of the water

V is the volume of the cube

Now, the height above the surface of the water would be

h = a − x

Substituting the values, then we get

h = 0.2 − 0.13

h = 0.07 m

b) The mass added is "m" so the complete cube is submerged in the water, therefore

ρcgV + mg = ρg × (V)

$(650*(0.2 m)^3)+m=1000*(0.2 m)^3

m = 2.8 kg

The mass added is "m" so the complete cube is submerged in the water is 2.8 kg.

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

595391.482946 m/s

3.21875\times 10^{6}

Explanation:

E = Energy = 1.85 keV

I = Current = 5.15 mA

e = Charge of electron = 1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

t = Time taken = 1 second

m = Mass of proton = 1.67\times 10^{-27}\ kg

Velocity of proton is given by

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2E}{m}}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 1.85\times 10^3\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{1.67\times 10^{-27}}}\\\Rightarrow v=595391.482946\ m/s

The speed of the proton is 595391.482946 m/s

Current is given by

I=\dfrac{\Delta Q}{t}\\\Rightarrow \Delta Q=It\\\Rightarrow \Delta Q=5.15\times 10^{-3}\times (1\ sec)\\\Rightarrow Q=5.15\times 10^{-3}\ C

Number of protons is

n=\dfrac{Q}{e}\\\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{5.15\times 10^{-3}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}\\\Rightarrow n=3.21875\times 10^{6}\ protons

The number of protons is 3.21875\times 10^{6}

the idling engines of a landing turbojet produce forward thrust when operating in a normal manner, but they can produce reverse
Finger [1]

Forward thrust has positive values and reverse thrust has negative values.

Thrust is a sudden push or pull in a certain direction.

a)

Flight speed u = 150 km/h

1 km/h = \frac{1}{3.6} km/s

therefore, 150 km/h =  41.67 km / s

The thrust force represents the horizontal or x-component of momentum equation:

T = m_{exhaust} * U_{exhaust} - U_{flight}

T = 50 * (150 - 41.67)

T = 5416.67 N

Therefore, the value of forward thrust is 5416.67 N.

b)

Now the exhaust velocity is now vertical due to reverse thrust application, then it has a zero horizontal component,

thus thrust equation is:

T = m_{exhaust} * U_{exhaust} - U_{flight}

T = 50 * (0 - 41.67)

T = -2083.5 N

Therefore, the thrust force T is -2083.5 N in the reverse direction.

c)

Now the exhaust velocity and flight velocity is zero, then it has a zero horizontal component, thus thrust is also zero becauseU_{exhaust} = U_{flight} = 0\\

T = 0

Therefore, there is no difference in two velocities in x direction.

The given question is incomplete, the complete question is,

"The idling engines of a landing turbojet produce forward thrust when operating in a normal manner, but they can produce reverse thrust if the jet is properly deflected. Suppose that while the aircraft rolls down the runway at 150 km/h the idling engine consumes air at 50 kg/s and produces an exhaust velocity of 150 m/s.

a. What is the forward thrust of this engine?

b. What are the magnitude and direction (i.e., forward or reverse) if the exhaust is deflected 90 degree without affecting the mass flow?

c. What are the magnitude and direction of the thrust (forward or reverse) after the plane has come to a stop, with 90 degree exhaust deflection and an airflow of 40 kg/s?"
