Answer:

A. Less than 2.9

Explanation:

Richter scale is a measure of the intensity of the earthquakes designed and developed by Charles Richter in 1935. Its value ranges from 1.0 to 9.0 and greater. The earthquakes having a Richter magnitude of less than 2.9 are minor earthquakes which are slightly felt by a few humans but can be recorded on a seismograph. Earthquakes with magnitude above 2.9 can easily be felt by humans.

A. anything less than 3.0 magnitude on a richters scale usually can't be felt by humans but instruments can pick it up.

A 10 kg frictionless cart is pushed at a constant force of 5.0 N for a distance of 10 m. The work done on the cart is 50J.
kykrilka [37]

1) Final kinetic energy of the cart: B) 50 J

2) Final speed of the cart: C) 3.2 m/s

3) Height reached along the ramp: A) 0.5 m

Explanation:

1)

We can solve this part of the problem by using the work-energy theorem, which states that the work done on an object is equal to the kinetic energy gained by the object itself. Mathematically:

W=K_f - K_i

where

W is the work done

K_f is the final kinetic energy

K_i is the initial kinetic energy

In this problem, the work done on the cart is

W = 50 J

And assuming it starts from rest, its initial kinetic energy is zero:

K_i = 0

Therefore, the final kinetic energy is:

K_f = K_i + W=0+50=50 J

2)

The kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by an object due to its motion; it is calculated as

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its speed

For the cart in this problem, we have:

K = 50 J is its final kinetic energy

m = 10 kg is the cart

Therefore, solving the formula for v, we find its speed:

v=\sqrt{\frac{2K}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(50)}{10}}=3.2 m/s

3)

We can think this problem in terms of conservation of energy. In fact, as the cart rolls up the ramp, its kinetic energy is converted into gravitational potential energy, which is given by

PE=mgh

where

m is the mass

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

h is the heigth of the cart

When the cart reaches the maximum height, all the kinetic energy has been converted into potential energy, so we can write:

K=PE\\\frac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh

Re-arranging,

h=\frac{v^2}{2g}

And since we know the initial speed of the cart along the ramp,

v = 3.2 m/s

we can find the maximum height reached along the ramp:

h=\frac{3.2^2}{2(9.8)}=0.5 m

Electrically neutral objects cannot exert an electrical force on each other, but they can exert a gravitational force on each ot
Olenka [21]
The correct answer is 
A) true

In fact, the electrical force can be present only if the two objects have a net charge different from zero, because the electrical force is proportional to the value of the charges:
F_e = k_e  \frac{Q_1 Q_2}{r^2}
so, if they are neutral they cannot exert an electrical force between each other, because their charge Q is zero.

Viceversa, the gravitational force is always present when the objects have masses, since the force is proportional to the value of the masses:
F_g = G  \frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}
so, even if the two objetcs are neutral, if they have mass, they exert a gravitational force to each other.
