7 0

Answer:

0 N

Explanation:

According to Newton's first law of motion, an object in motion stays in motion until acted upon by an unbalanced force. With no friction in space to unbalance the cannonball, it will continue to keep going.

The charges of two particles are as follows: Q1=2 x 10 -8 C and Q2 = 3 x 10 -7 C. Find the magnitude of the force between these

Fantom [35]

Answer:

F = 3.86 x 10⁻⁶ N

Explanation:

First, we will find the distance between the two particles:

$r = \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2+(z_{2}-z_{1})^2}\\$

where,

r = distance between the particles = ?

(x₁, y₁, z₁) = (2, 5, 1)

(x₂, y₂, z₂) = (3, 2, 3)

Therefore,

$r = \sqrt{(3-2)^2+(2-5)^2+(3-1)^2}\\r = 3.741\ m\\$

Now, we will calculate the magnitude of the force between the charges by using Coulomb's Law:

$F = \frac{kq_{1}q_{2}}{r^2}\\$

where,

F = magnitude of force = ?

k = Coulomb's Constant = 9 x 10⁹ Nm²/C²

q₁ = magnitude of first charge = 2 x 10⁻⁸ C

q₂ = magnitude of second charge = 3 x 10⁻⁷ C

r = distance between the charges = 3.741 m

Therefore,

$F = \frac{(9\ x\ 10^9\ Nm^2/C^2)(2\ x\ 10^{-8}\ C)(3\ x\ 10^{-7}\ C)}{(3.741\ m)^2}\\$

Kai swims for the school swim team. He specializes in a backstroke event where he has to swim the 50 m length of the pool three

Westkost [7]

Answer:

Displacement is 50 m

Explanation:

Distance is simply the measurement of the sum of all paths travelled.

Thus, since he swims the 50m length pool 3 times, then the total distance = 50 × 3 = 150 m

Whereas, displacement is the measurement of length of the shortest path from initial point to final point.

In this case initial point to final point is 50m. Thus, the displacement is 50 m

4. A ball is thrown vertically upward from the ground with a velocity of 30m/s. (a) how long will it take to rise to the highest

yarga [219]

All the answers are:

a) The time that will it take to rise to the highest point is 3.06 seconds.

b) The ball will rise to a height of 45.87 meters.

c) The time at which the ball will have a velocity of 10 m/s upward is 2.04 seconds.

The time when the ball has 10 m/s downward is 1.02 seconds.

d) The displacement of the ball will be zero at 6.12 seconds.

e) The time when the magnitude of the ball's velocity is equal to half its velocity of projection is 1.53 seconds.

f) The ball's displacement is equal to half the maximum height to which it rises after 0.90 seconds.

g) In each moment (upward and downward) the magnitude of the acceleration is the value of g (9.81 m/s²) and is a vector in the negative y-direction.

Let's calculate the values for each case.

a) At the highest point, the final velocity is 0, so we can use the following equation.

$v_{f}=v_{i}-gt$ (1)
