Which of the following best describes the human population from early times to the present?
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

We have a not significant increase of the population until 1700s or 1800s and then a significant increase growth from these years to the present.

Explanation:

From the figure attached we see the evolution of the human population since early times (1050).

We see that from 1050 until 1750-1850 we have an increase slowly with a low value for the increase per year.

But after these years (1750-1850) we see a considerable increase of the population, like an exponential model.

So then we can conclude in general terms this:

We have a not significant increase of the population until 1700s or 1800s and then a significant increase growth from these years to the present.

a 5 charge is locataed 1.25 m to the left of a -3 charge. What is the magnitude and direction of the electrostatic force on the
Alika [10]

Answer:

The force is 86.5×10^9 N towards the negative charge (to the right)

Explanation:

The electrostatic force on the charges is given by Coulomb's law;

F= Kq1q2/r^2

This an inverse square law.

F= electrostatic force on the charges

K= constant of Coulomb's law

q1 and q2= magnitude of the charges

Since K= 9.0×10^9Nm^2C^2

F= 9.0×10^9 × 5 × 3/(1.25)^2 = 135×10^9/1.56

F= 86.5×10^9 N

The force is 86.5×10^9 N towards the negative charge.

A man is crossing a river of width 100 m on a motorboat. The velocity of the motor boat is 4 m/s eastward and the velocity of th
Airida [17]

By the Pythagorean theorem we get 3^2+4^2=5^2. Thus the resultant velocity will be 5 m/s.

However there is a typo in the choices. It should take 25 seconds to cross the river, not 20 seconds, since the boat actually travels 125 meters due to the water current, and 125/5 = 25 seconds.

Alternatively  you can calculate the eastward component of travel and get 100 / 4 = 25 seconds.
