Answer:

Explanation:

An object is drop from a height, then it is in direction of gravity

g is +ve

When an object drop from a height, the initial velocity is 0,

U=0

Given that h=4.4×10^7m

V=?

g=9.81m/s^2

Then using equation of motion

V^2=U^2+2gh

V^2=0+2×9.81×4.4×10^7

V^2=86.33×10^7m/s

Take square root of both side

V=29381.63m/s

Now to km/s, divide by 1000

Since 1km=1000m

V=29.38km/s

A 2290 kg car traveling to the west at 22.3 m/s slows down uniformly. How long would it take the car to come to a stop if the fo
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

5.72 s

Explanation:

From Newton's law, F = ma

The East is +ve direction, Hence,

F = +8930 N

m = 2290 kg

a = ?

8930 = 2290 × a

a = 8930/2290 = 3.90 m/s²

So, we will find the time it takes the car to stop using the equations of motion

a = 3.90 m/s²

u = initial velocity of the car = - 22.3 m/s (the velocity is to the west)

v = final velocity of the car = 0 m/s (since the car comes to rest)

t = time taken for the car to come to rest = ?

v = u + at

0 = - 22.3 + (3.90)(t)

3.9t = 22.3

t = 5.72 s

Alina [70]

Answer:

The distance between the two spheres is 914.41 X 10³ m

Explanation:

Given;

4 X 10¹³ electrons, and its equivalent in coulomb's is calculated as follows;

1 e = 1.602 X 10⁻¹⁹ C

4 X 10¹³ e = 4 X 10¹³ X 1.602 X 10⁻¹⁹ C = 6.408 X 10⁻⁶ C

V = Ed

where;

V is the electrical potential energy between two spheres, J

E is the electric field potential between the two spheres N/C

d is the distance between two charged bodies, m

V = \frac{K*q}{d^2}*d = \frac{K*q}{d}

d = \frac{K*q}{V}

where;

K is coulomb's constant = 8.99 X 10⁹ Nm²/C²

d = (8.99 X 10⁹ X 6.408 X 10⁻⁶)/0.063

d = 914.41 X 10³ m

Therefore, the distance between the two spheres is 914.41 X 10³ m

Two boxes (24 kg and 62 kg) are being pushed across a horizontal frictionless surface, as the drawing shows. The 36-N pushing fo
defon

Answer:

F = 26.04 N

Explanation:

As we know that system of two boxes are moving on frictionless surface

So here if two boxes are considered as a system

then we have

F = (m_1 + m_2) a

m_1 = 24 kg

m_2 = 62 kg

F = 36 N

36 = (24 + 62) a

a = 0.42 m/s^2

Now since we know that both the boxes are moving together so force applied by first box on other box is given as

F = ma

F = (62 \times 0.42)

F = 26.04 N
