Base on your question where a 14.8g of piece of Styrofoam carries a net charge of -0.742C and is suspended in equilibrium above the center of a large, horizontal sheet of plastic so the ask of the problem is to calculate  the charge per unit area on the plastic sheet. The answer would be 21.96

inessss [21]

Answer:

a)52.58 m/s

b)56.13°

Explanation:

assume the upward direction as positive

x-component of the velocity = 29.3×cos33.6°=24.40 m/s (remain constant)

y-component of the velocity which is -29.3sin33.6°= -16.21 m/s

time of flight = 68.3/24.40= 2.7991 seconds

now, we can obtain final velocity in y-direction

v_f_y= v_i_y-gt

v_f_y=-16.21-(-9.8)×2.7991

=43.66 m/s

v_0=\sqrt{29.3^2+43.66^2}

=52.58 m/s

for direction

tan^{-1}\frac{43.66}{29.3}

56.13° from the horizontal

A 26.0 kg beam is attached to a wall with a hinge while its far end is supported by a cable such that the beam is horizontal. If
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

Force exerted by the hinge on the beam = 109.24N

Explanation:

Weight = mg = 26 x 9.81 = 255.06 N

Vertical component = T sin θ

Horizontal component = Tcos θ

Now, there are 3 vertical forces acting on the beam. These are;

- The downward force which is the weight of the beam.

- The vertical components of the tension in the cable.

-The force that hinge exerts on the beam are the upward forces.

Hence, for the beam to remain horizontal, the sum of the upward forces must be equal to the weight of the beam.

For us to determine the vertical component of the tension in the cable, we will do a torque problem. Let the pivot point be at the hinge. Let’s assume that the length of the beam is L. The vertical component of the tension in the cable will produce clockwise torque while the weight of the beam will produce counter clockwise torque.

Tbus;

Clockwise torque = TL sin 61

Since the center of mass of beam is at the middle of the beam, the distance from the hinge to the weight of the beam is L/2.

Counter clockwise torque = WL/2

Thus;

TL sin 61 = WL/2

L will cancel out.

T sin 61 = 255.06/2

T x 0.8746 = 127.53

T = 127.53/0.8746 = 145.82 N

Now, the equation to determine the vertical component of the force that the hinge exerts on the beam is given as;

T + F = W

Thus;

145.82 + F = 255.06

F = 255.06 - 145.82 = 109.24 N

What is the main promblem with survey research?
zlopas [31]

Answer:

A major problem in all survey research is that respondents are almost always self-selected. Not everyone who receives a survey is likely to answer it, no matter how many times they are reminded or what incentives are offered.

Explanation:

<em><u>DISADVANTAGES</u></em>

Respondents may not feel encouraged to provide accurate, honest answers.

Respondents may not feel comfortable providing answers that present themselves in a unfavorable manner.

Respondents may not be fully aware of their reasons for any given answer because of lack of memory on the subject, or even boredom.

HAVE A GOOD DAY!
