Answer: C) The two particles will move away from each other

Explanation:

When two electrically charged bodies come closer, appears a force that attracts or repels them, depending on the sign of the charges of this two bodies.

This is stated by Coulomb's Law:

"The electrostatic force F_{E} between two point charges q_{1} and q_{2} is proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance d that separates them, and has the direction of the line that joins them"  

Mathematically this law is written as:  

F_{E}= K\frac{q_{1}.q_{2}}{d^{2}}  

Where K is a proportionality constant.  

Now, if q_{1} and q_{2} have the same sign charge (both positive or both negative), a repulsive force will act on these charges.

Which tool would you use to measure the amount of rainfall? a. graduated cylinder b. stopwatch c. scale d. thermometer
Fittoniya [83]

A graduated cylinder measures the volume of a liquid.

A stopwatch measures the amount of time that elapses.

A scale measures the mass of objects.

A thermometer measures the temperature of any object.

Because we are measuring rain, a liquid, we would want to use a tool that would allow us to collect the rain for measuring. Therefore, the tool e would use to measure the amount of rainfall would be A. a graduated cylinder.

A linear network has a current input 7.5 cos(10t + 30°) A and a voltage output 120 cos(10t + 75°) V. Determine the associated im
Leona [35]

Answer:

16∠45° Ω

Explanation:

Applying,

Z = V/I................... Equation 1

Where Z = Impedance, V = Voltage output, I = current input.

Given: V = 120cos(10t+75°), = 120∠75°,  I = 7.5cos(10t+30) = 7.5∠30°

Substitute these values into equation 1

Z = 120cos(10t+75°)/7.5cos(10t+30)

Z = 120∠75°/ 7.5∠30°

Z = 16∠(75°-30)

Z = 16∠45° Ω

Hence the impedance of the linear network is 16∠45° Ω

Conservation of Momentum Practice
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Before: 0 m/s  

After: -4 m/s

Explanation:

Before: Since you and your beau started at rest, your beau initial velocity is 0 m/s.

After: Since we have to conserve momentum,

momentum before push = momentum after push.

The momentum before push = 0 (since you and your beau are at rest)

momentum after push = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ were m₁ = your mass = 60 kg, v₁ = your velocity after push = 3 m/s, m₂ = beau's mass = 45 kg and v₂ = beau's velocity.

So, m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = 0

m₁v₁ = -m₂v₂

v₂ = -m₁v₁/m₂ = -60 kg × 3 m/s ÷ 45 kg = -4 m/s

So beau moves with a velocity of 4 m/s in the opposite direction
