The electrostatic force of attraction between two charged objects separated by a distance of 1.0 cm is given by F. If the distan

ce between the objects were increased to 5.0 cm, what would be the electrostatic force of attraction between them?

Answer:

New force between them will become \frac{1}{36} times

Explanation:

Let the charge on both the object are q_1\ and\ q_2 and distance between them is is given 1 cm

So r = 1 cm = 0.01 m

Electric force between them is given F

According to Coulomb's between two charges is given by

F=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon _0}\frac{q_1q_2}{r^2}=\frac{Kq_1q_2}{r^2}

According to question F=\frac{Kq_1q_2}{0.01^2}=\frac{Kq_1q_2}{10^{-4}}-----------eqn 1

Now distance is increased by 5 cm so new distance = 5+1 = 6 cm = 0.06 m

So new force F_{new}=\frac{Kq_1q_2}{0.06^2}=\frac{Kq_1q_2}{36\times 10^{-4}}------------------eqn 2

Comparing eqn 1 and eqn 2

F_{new}=\frac{F}{36}

n 38 g rifle bullet traveling at 410 m/s buries itself in a 4.2 kg pendulum hanging on a 2.8 m long string, which makes the pend
Kitty [74]

Answer:

68cm

Explanation:

You can solve this problem by using the momentum conservation and energy conservation. By using the conservation of the momentum you get

p_f=p_i\\mv_1+Mv_2=(m+M)v

m: mass of the bullet

M: mass of the pendulum

v1: velocity of the bullet = 410m/s

v2: velocity of the pendulum =0m/s

v: velocity of both bullet ad pendulum joint

By replacing you can find v:

(0.038kg)(410m/s)+0=(0.038kg+4.2kg)v\\\\v=3.67\frac{m}{s}

this value of v is used as the velocity of the total kinetic energy of the block of pendulum and bullet. This energy equals the potential energy for the maximum height reached by the block:

E_{fp}=E_{ki}\\\\(m+M)gh=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

g: 9.8/s^2

h: height

By doing h the subject of the equation and replacing you obtain:

(0.038kg+4.2kg)(9.8m/s^2)h=\frac{1}{2}(0.038kg+4.2kg)(3.67m/s)^2\\\\h=0.68m

hence, the heigth is 68cm

A water rocket has a mass of 0.8kg and is launched in a school playground with an inital upwards force of 12newtons. what is the
Darina [25.2K]

Weight = (mass) x (gravity).
It always acts downward.

On Earth, the acceleration of gravity is 9.807 m/s².
On the Moon, the acceleration of gravity is 1.623 m/s².

On Earth, the rocket's weight is  (0.8kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = 7.84 newtons

On the Moon, the rocket's weight is  (0.8kg) x (1.62 m/s²) = 1.3 newtons

The force of the rocket engine acts upward.
Its magnitude is 12 newtons. (From the burning chemicals.
Doesn't depend on local gravity. Same force everywhere.)

Now we have all the data we need to mash together and calculate the
answers to the question.  You might choose a different method, but the
machine that I have selected to do the mashing with is Newton's 2nd law
of motion:

                           Net Force = (mass) x (acceleration).
 
Since the question is asking for acceleration, let's first solve Newton's law
for it.  Divide each side by (mass) and we have

                           Acceleration = (net force) / (mass) .

On Earth, the forces on the rocket are

        (weight of 7.84 N down) + (blast of 12 N up) =  4.16 newtons UP (net)

         Acceleration = (4.16 newtons UP) / (0.8 kg) = 5.2 m/s² UP .

On the moon, the forces on the rocket are

         (weight of 1.3 N down) + (blast of 12 N up) = 10.7 newtons UP (net)

         Acceleration = (10.7 newtons UP) / (0.8 kg) = 13.375 m/s² UP

During a football game, a receiver has just caught a pass and is standing still. Before he can move, a tackler, running at a vel
amm1812

Answer:

<h2>122kg</h2>

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation of momentum which states that 'the sum of momentum of bodies before collision is equal to their sum after collision. The bodies will move together with a common velocity after collision.

Momentum = Mass * Velocity

<u>Before collision;</u>

Momentum of receiver m1u1= 0 kgm/s (since the receiver is standing still)

Momentum of the tackler

m2u2 = 2.60*122 = 317.2 kgm/s

where m2 and u2 are the mass and velocity of the tacker respectively.

Sum of momentum before collision = 0+317.2 = 317.2 kgm/s

<u>After collision</u>

Momentum of the bodies = (m1+m2)v

v = their common velocity

m1 = mass of the receiver

Momentum of the bodies = (122+m1)(1.30)

Momentum of the bodies = 158.6+1.30m1

According to the law above;

317.2 = 158.6+1.30m1

317.2-158.6 = 1.30m1

158.6 = 1.30m1

m1 = 158.6/1.30

m1 = 122kg

The mas of the receiver is 122kg
