Electric field lines show the strength and _____ of an electric field.

1 answer:

8 0

So we want to know what do electric field lines show except strength of the electric field. Electric field lines are lines that show us the field strength and the DIRECTION of the electric field. If the lines point away from the charge that is producing the lines, the charge is positive, and if the lines point towards the charge that is producing them that charge is negative.

Which of the following statements is true?

xenn [34]

Correct answer choice is :

C) The freezing and melting temperatures of a substance are the same.

Explanation:

Fluids have a particular temperature at which they convert into solids, identified as their freezing point. In theory, the melting point of a solid should be the same as the freezing point of the liquid. In practice, small variations among these measures can be seen. The freezing point of a matter is the same as that substance's melting point. At this distinct temperature, the substance can exist as either a solid or a liquid. At temperatures below the freezing/ melting point, the substance is a solid.

While on a playground, you and your niece take turns sliding down a frictionless slide. Your mass is 75 kg while your little nie

Olenka [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

In absence of friction, total mechanical energy must be conserved.
This means that the change in gravitational potential energy (in magnitude) must be equal to the change in kinetic energy:

$\Delta K = \Delta U \\ \\ \frac{1}{2} * m* v^{2} = m*g*h$

As it can be seen, the mass m is on the both sides of the equation, which means that it can be simplified.
We can solve this equation for v (speed at the bottom) as follows:

$v = \sqrt{2*g*h}$

As it can be seen, the mass has no part in the equation, so, due both are starting from the same height, both people have the same speed at the bottom.
The option c is the right one.

A car is traveling at a constant speed of 33 m/s on a highway. At the instant this car passes an entrance ramp, a second car ent

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

0.8712 m/s²

Explanation:

We are given;

Velocity of first car; v1 = 33 m/s

Distance; d = 2.5 km = 2500 m

Acceleration of first car; a1 = 0 m/s² (constant acceleration)

Velocity of second car; v2 = 0 m/s (since the second car starts from rest)

From Newton's equation of motion, we know that;

d = ut + ½at²

Thus,for first car, we have;

d = v1•t + ½(a1)t²

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

d = 33t + 0

d = 33t

For second car, we have;

d = v2•t + ½(a2)•t²

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

d = 0 + ½(a2)t²

d = ½(a2)t²

Since they meet at the next exit, then;

33t = ½(a2)t²

simplifying to get;

33 = ½(a2)t

Now, we also know that;

t = distance/speed = d/v1 = 2500/33

Thus;

33 = ½ × (a2) × (2500/33)

Rearranging, we have;

a2 = (33 × 33 × 2)/2500

a2 = 0.8712 m/s²
