<span>this is simple question of conversion of unit But as we can see here that one is in kpa or kilo pascal which is a unit of pressure while another is in joule which is unit of energy but if we do the dimension matching we could see that 1pa = 1J/m^3 and 0.0421kpa/km=0.0421pa/m now putting above equation as substitution 0.0421pa/m=0.0421J/m^4 100 cm = 1 m putting it we get R= 4.21Ă—10^-10 J/cm^4</span>

Answer:4.21 \times 10^{-10} J/cm^4

1 kPa= 10^3 Pa

1 km=10^5 cm

1kPa/km=0.01 Pa/cm

1kPa/km=10^{-8} J/cm^4

\Rightarrow r= 0.0421 kPa/km= 0.0421 kPa/km \times \frac{10^{-8} J/cm^4}{1 kPa/km}= 0.0421 \times 10^{-8}J/cm^4=4.21 \times 10^{-10} J/cm^4

Not sure if it went through last time. Please help asap!
Olin [163]
The equation for force is F=ma. Because we have the value of mass (0.42 kg) and the acceleration (14.8 m/s^2), simply plug them into the equation for force to get
0.42 \times 14.8 = 6.22
The answer is 6.22 N because newtons are the unit used to measure force.

Two charged objects, A and B, are exerting an electric force on each other. What will happen if the charge on A is increased?
ozzi

Answer: The forces acting on both of them will increase in magnitude.

Explanation:

According to Coulomb's law, the electrostatic force between two bodies is proportional to the product of their two charges. If the charge on A is increased this product increases in size (it must have been non-zero to begin with, since there was a force between them at first). Thus, the force between them rises.

Force F=2.0N i - 3.0N k acts on a pebble with position vectorr=0.50m j - 2.0m k relative to the origin. In unit vector notation,
klasskru [66]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Force acts on a pebble=2\hat{i}-3\hat{k} N

Position vector=r=0.5\hat{j}-2\hat{k} m

a.We have to find the resulting torque on the pebble about origin.

Torque=r\times F

Substitute the values then we get

Torque= (0.5j-2k)\times (2i-3k)

Torque=-k-1.5i-4jN-m

By using i\times j=k,j\times k=i,k\times i=j,j\times i=-k,k\times j=-i,i\times k=-j,i\times i=j\times j=k\times k=0

b.r=2i-3k

r-r_1=(0.5j-2k)-(2i-3k)=-2i+0.5j+k

Torque about point (2,0,-3)

\tau=(-2i+0.5j+k)\times (2i-3k)

\tau=-6j-k-1.5i+2j=-1.5i-4j-kN-m
