Near the surface of Earth an electric field points radially downward and has a magnitude of approximately 100 N/C. What charge (
pentagon [3]

Answer:

q=2.997\times 10^{-4}C

Sign-Negative

Explanation:

We are given that

Electric field =E=100NC^{-1} (Radially downward)

Acceleration=0.19 ms^{-2}(Upward)

Mass of charge=3 g=3\times 10^{-3}kg

1kg=1000g

We have to find the magnitude and sign of  charge would have to be placed on a penny .

By newton's second law

\sum F_y=ma

\sum F_y=qE-mg

Substitute the values then we get

qE-mg=ma

Substitute the values then we get

q(100)-3\times 10^{-3}(9.8)=3\times 10^{-3}(0.19)

100q-29.4\times 10^{-3}=0.57\times 10^{-3}

100q=0.57\times 10^{-3}+29.4\times 10^{-3}=29.97\times 10^{-3}

q=\frac{29.97\times 10^{-3}}{100}

q=2.997\times 10^{-4}C

Sign of charge =Negative

Because electric force acting  in opposite direction of electric field therefore,charge on penny will be negative.

The average intensity of light emerging from a polarizing sheet is 0.708 W/m2, and that of the horizontally polarized light inci
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

Angle θ = 30.82°

Explanation:

From Malus’s law, since the intensity of a wave is proportional to its amplitude squared, the intensity I of the transmitted wave is related to the incident wave by; I = I_o cos²θ

where;

I_o is the intensity of the polarized wave before passing through the filter.

In this question,

I is 0.708 W/m²

While I_o is 0.960 W/m²

Thus, plugging in these values into the equation, we have;

0.708 W/m² = 0.960 W/m² •cos²θ

Thus, cos²θ = 0.708 W/m²/0.960 W/m²

cos²θ = 0.7375

Cos θ = √0.7375

Cos θ = 0.8588

θ = Cos^(-1)0.8588

θ = 30.82°

A 70.0 kg ice hockey goalie, originally at rest, has a 0.110 kg hockey puck slapped at him at a velocity of 31.5 m/s. Suppose th
NISA [10]

Answer

given,

mass of the goalie(m₁) = 70 kg

mass of the puck (m₂)= 0.11 kg

velocity of the puck = 31.5 m/s

elastic collision

v_1=\dfrac{m_2-m_1}{m_1+m_2}v_1+\dfrac{2m_2}{m_1+m_2}v_2

v_{pf}=\dfrac{0.11-70}{0.11+70}31.5+\dfrac{2m_2}{m_1+m_2}\times (0)

v_{pf}=-31.4\ m/s

v'_2 = \dfrac{2m_1v_1}{m_1+m_2}-\dfrac{(m_2-m_1)v_2}{m_2+m_1}

v_{gf} = \dfrac{2\times 0.11\times 31.5}{0.11+70}-\dfrac{(0.11-70)\times 0}{m_1+m_2}

v_{gf} = \dfrac{2\times 0.11\times 31.5}{0.11+70}

v_{gf} = 0.0988\ m/s
