Calculate the magnitude of the electric field 2.00 m from a point charge of 5.00 mC (such as found on the terminal of a Van de G

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric field is 1.124 X 10⁷ N/C

Explanation:

Magnitude of electric field is given as;

E = \frac{kq}{r^2} , N/C

where;

E is the magnitude of the electric field, N/C

q is the point charge, C

k is coulomb's constant, Nm²/C²

r is the distance of the point charge, m

Given;

q = 5mC = 5×10⁻³ C

r = 2m

k = 8.99 × 10⁹ Nm²/C²

Substitute these values and solve for magnitude of electric field E

E = \frac{kq}{r^2}  = \frac{(8.99 X10^9)(5X10^{-3})}{2^2}  = 1.124 X10^7 N/C

Therefore, the magnitude of the electric field is 1.124 X 10⁷ N/C

An object is at rest on the ground. The object experiences a downward gravitational force from Earth. Which of the following pre
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

A) and B) are correct.

Explanation:

If the object is at rest, it means that no net force is exerted on it.

As the object experiences a downward gravitational force from Earth, in order to be at rest, it must experience an upward force with the same magnitude as the gravitational force on the object.

This force is supplied by the normal force, which can adopt any value in order to meet the condition imposed by Newton´s 2nd Law, and is always perpendicular to the surface on which the object is placed (in this case, the ground).

At a molecular level, this normal force is supplied by the bonded molecules of the ground that behave like small springs being compressed by the molecules of the object, exerting an upward restoring force upward on them.

So, the statements A) and B) are true.

According to the ideal gas law, a 1.074 mol sample of oxygen gas in a 1.746 L container at 267.6 K should exert a pressure of 13
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

% differ  1.72%

Explanation:

given data:

P_ideal = 13.51 atm

n = 1.074 mol

V = 1.746 L

T = 267.6 K

According to ideal gas law we have

(P+ \frac{n^2 *a}{v^2}) (V - nb) = nRT

(P+ (\frac{1.074^2 *1.360}{1.746^2})) (1.746 - 1.074*3.183*10^{-2}) = 1.074*0.0821*267.6

(P+0.514)(1.711) = 23.59

P_v = 13.276 atm

% differ = \frac{ P_I - P_v}{P_I} *100

             = \frac{13.51 - 13.27}{13.51} *100

             = 1.72%

A train pulls away from a station with a constant acceleration of 0.42 m/s2. A passenger arrives at a point next to the track 6.
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

2.69 m/s

Explanation:

Hi!

First lets find the position of the train as a function of time as seen by the passenger when he arrives to the train station. For this state, the train is at a position x0 given by:

x0 = (1/2)(0.42m/s^2)*(6.4s)^2 = 8.6016 m

So, the position as a function of time is:

xT(t)=(1/2)(0.42m/s^2)t^2 + x0 = (1/2)(0.42m/s^2)t^2 + 8.6016 m

Now, if the passanger is moving at a constant velocity of V, his position as a fucntion of time is given by:

xP(t)=V*t

In order for the passenger to catch the train

xP(t)=xT(t)

(1/2)(0.42m/s^2)t^2 + 8.6016 m = V*t

To solve this equation for t we make use of the quadratic formula, which has real solutions whenever its determinat is grater than zero:

0≤ b^2-4*a*c = V^2 - 4 * ((1/2)(0.42m/s^2)) * 8.6016 m =V^2 - 7.22534(m/s)^2

This equation give us the minimum velocity the passenger must have in order to catch the train:

V^2 - 7.22534(m/s)^2 = 0

V^2 = 7.22534(m/s)^2

V = 2.6879 m/s
