Use pythagorean's theorem for this, with 7 as a and 5 as b. pythagorean's theorem says that a^2 + b^2 = c^2, so 7^2 * 5^2 = c^2. this gives you 49 + 25 = c^2, so 74 = c^2. c = sqrt 74, which is approximately 8.60 km

You are traveling in a convertible with the top down. The car is moving at a constant velocity 28.9 m/s, due east along flat gro
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

91.914138 m

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity = 15.6 m/s

v = Final velocity = -15.6 m/s (it will hit the ground at this speed)

s = Displacement

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s² = a

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{-15.6-15.6}{-9.81}\\\Rightarrow t=3.18042\ s

Distance=Speed\times Time

d=3.18042\times 28.9\\\Rightarrow d=91.914138\ m

The distance the car will travel is 91.914138 m

A -5.40nC point charge is on the x axis at x = 1.25m . A second point charge Q is on the x axis at -0.625m.
qwelly [4]

Answe

a)  Q = 0.820 10⁻⁹ C ,   b)  Q = -3.52 10⁻⁹ C

Explanation:

The electric field is given by the formula

         E = k q / r²

where E is a vector quantity, so it must be added as a vector

          E_total = E₁ + E₂

let's look for the two electric fields

           E₁ = k q₁ / r₁²

           E₁ = 9 10⁹  5.4 10⁻⁹ / 1.25²

           E₁ = 31.10 N / C

           E2 = k Q / r₂²

           E2 = 9 10⁹ Q / 0.625²

           E2 = 23.04 10⁹ Q N / C           (1)

now we can solve the two cases presented

a) The total field is

            E_total = 50.0 N / C towards + x

since the test charge is positive the electric field E1 points to the right in the direction of the + x axis, so the equation is

            E_total = E1 + E₂

             E₂ = E_toal - E₁

             E₂ = 50.0 -31.10

             E2 = 18.9 N /C

With the value of the electric field we can calculate the charge (Q) using equation 1

             E₂ = 23.04 10⁹ Q

              Q = E₂ / 23.04 10⁹

              Q = 18.9 / 23.04 10⁹

              Q = 0.820 10⁻⁹ C

the charge on Q is positive

b) E_total = -50.0 N / C

              E_total = E₁ + E₂

              E₂ = E_total - E₁

              E2 = -50.0 - 31.10

               E2 = -81.10 N /C

we calculate the charge

             Q = E2 / 23.04 10⁹

             Q = -81.1 / 23.04 10⁹

              Q = -3.52 10⁻⁹ C

for this case the charge is negative

If the sun disappeared what would happen to the path the planets follow?
Licemer1 [7]

Regarding the Earth's motion (and the motion of every other planet),
there suddenly wouldn't be any centripetal force to curve the Earth's
path.  So the Earth would sail off in a straight line, in the direction it
was moving at the instant when the sun's gravity disappeared.

Although everything would become very dark, you wouldn't feel
anything different.  Even now, as we follow the curved orbit around
the sun, the direction of the Earth's motion only changes by about
one degree per day, so we don't feel it.

Which is the destructive interference formula for diffraction grating problems? dsin = dcos = dcos = n dsin = n.
shusha [124]

The destructive interference formula for diffraction grating problems is d sin \theta = (n+\frac{1}{2})\lambda.

<h3>What is the definition of destructive interference?</h3>

Destructive interference happens when the maxima of two waves are 180° out of phase a positive displacement of one wave is canceled exactly by a negative displacement of the other wave.

The formula for brighter patches resulting from constructive interference and darker patches resulting from destructive interference in a diffraction grating is:

\rm d sin \theta = n \lambda

The grating spacing is denoted by d, the angle of light is denoted by a the fringe order is denoted by n, and the wavelength is denoted by \rm \lambda.

The destructive interference formula is now based on the fact that destructive interference occurs between the fringes.

Hence the destructive interference formula for diffraction grating problems is d sin \theta = (n+\frac{1}{2})\lambda.

Einstein's equivalence principle says that __________. Einstein's equivalence principle says that __________. everyone measures
ad-work [718]

Answer:

Einstein's equivalence principle says that __________.

the effects of gravity are exactly equivalent to the effects of acceleration

Explanation:

The equivalence principle is one of the fundamental laws of physics, as enunciated by Einstein.  It categorically states that the gravitational and inertial forces are of a similar nature.  In physics, a gravitational acceleration is the acceleration of an object in a free fall within a space.  The importance of Einstein's Equivalence Principle is explained by his theory of general relativity.  This theory states that mass is the same, whether inertial or gravitational.
