<span>Satellites are used to measure wave height and sea surface height. Rangefinders are used to measure changes in the distance between the satellite and the water, which can then be used to calculate both of these values.</span>

A small glass bead has been charged to + 30.0 nC . A small metal ball bearing 2.60 cm above the bead feels a 1.80×10−2 N downwar

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

The charge on the ball bearing 4.507 × 10^-8 C

Explanation:

From Coulomb's law

F = kq1q2/r²

make q2 the subject

q2 = Fr²/kq1

q2 = (1.8×10^-2 × 0.026²) ÷ (9×10^9 × 30×10^-9)

q2 = 4.507 × 10^-8 C

Determine the volume displaced and then calculate the density of this 54 g sample of brass.

inessss [21]

Answer:

DETAILS IN THE QUESTION INSUFFICIENT TO ANSWER

Explanation:

Assuming the liquid to be water ,

the density $d_{w}$ of water is : $1000kgm^{-3}=1gcm^{-3}$

Buoyant force exerted by a liquid on an object with $V_{imm}$ of it's volume immersed is :

$F_{B}=V_{imm}*d_{l}*g$

where ,

$F_{B}$ is the buoyant force
$d_{l}$ is the density of the liquid
$g$ is the acceleration due to gravity

Thus at equilibrium:

$m_{brass}*g=V_{imm}*d_{l}*g\\m_{brass}=V_{imm}*d_{l}\\54=V_{imm}*1\\V_{imm}=54cm^{3}$

from these , we get the density of brass to be $1gcm^{-3}$

which is not possible

Vector of magnitude 15 is added to a vector of magnitude 25. The magnitude of this sum

loris [4]

Explanation:

Given that,

Magnitude of vector A, |A| = 15

Magnitude of vector B, |B| = 25

We need to find the magnitude of this sum.

The maximum sum of the resultant vector,

$R_{max}=|A_1|+|A_2|\\\\=15+25\\\\=45$

The minimum sum of the resultant vector,

$R_{min}=|A_1|-|A_2|\\\\=15-25\\\\=-10$

So, the magnitude of this sum either 45 or -10.

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

3 photons

Explanation:

The energy of a photon E can be calculated using this formula:

$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}$

Where $h$ corresponds to Plank constant (6.626070x10^-34Js), $c$ is the speed of light in the vacuum (299792458m/s) and $\lambda$ is the wavelength of the photon(in this case 800nm).
