40 m/s subtracted by 25m/s is 15.
15 has to be divided by the additional 3s which is 5
The 5 miles and the seconds left behind are 2
Answer: 5m/s2

Its acceleration is 5m/s2.
The formula for acceleration is Final speed - initial speed/time.
So 40m/s - 25m/s is 15m/s.
15m/s divided by 3s is 5m/s2.
Thus the acceleration is 5m/s2

Which projectiles will be visibly affected by air resistance when they fall?

NemiM [27]

Any object that is launched as a projectile will lose speed and, as a result, altitude, as it travels through the air. The rate at which the object loses speed and altitude depends on the amount of force that way applied to it when it was launched. It is also dependent on the size and shape of the item. This is why something like, say, a football is much faster to fall to the ground than a bullet.

You have two square metal plates with side lengths of (6.50 C) cm. You want to make a parallel-plate capacitor that will hold a

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

The necessary separation between the two parallel plates is 0.104 mm

Explanation:

Given;

length of each side of the square plate, L = 6.5 cm = 0.065 m

charge on each plate, Q = 12.5 nC

potential difference across the plates, V = 34.8 V

Potential difference across parallel plates is given as;

$V = \frac{Qd}{L^2 \epsilon_o} \\\\d = \frac{V L^2 \epsilon_o}{Q}$

Where;

d is the separation or distance between the two parallel plates;

$d = \frac{VL^2 \epsilon_o}{Q} \\\\d = \frac{34.8*(0.065)^2 *8.854*10^{-12}}{12.5*10^{-9}} \\\\d = 0.000104 \ m\\\\d = 0.104 \ mm$

Therefore, the necessary separation between the two parallel plates is 0.104 mm
