Indicate whether the statement is true or false. A force can be simply defined as a push or a pull.

TRUE

The force that opposes the movement of an object through water is called drag. This is a type of frictional force. This force normally depends on the density and the viscosity of the fluid in question. The liquid which has more density and more viscosity or stickiness will produce a greater amount of drag force on an object than a fluid that is less dense and less viscous in nature. River water normally has less drag than that of sea water.

A ball starts from rest and undergoes uniform acceleration of 2.50m/s^2. What is the velocity of the ball 4s later?

erica [24]

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 2.50 m/s²

t = 4 s

Find: v

v = at + v₀

v = (2.50 m/s²) (4 s) + 0 m/s

v = 10 m/s

If the car went 30 km west in 25 min. and then 40 km south in 35 min., what would be its average speed?

Alika [10]

The total distance is 70km.
The total time is 60 minutes or 1 hour.
Speed=Distance÷Time
=70÷1
=70km/h

Two large rectangular aluminum plates of area 180 cm2 face each other with a separation of 3 mm between them. The plates are cha

Westkost [7]

Answer:

Φ = 361872 N.m^2 / C

Explanation:

Given:-

- The area of the two plates, $A_p = 180 cm^2$

- The charge on each plate, $q = 17 * 10^-^6 C$

- Permittivity of free space, $e_o = 8.85 * 10^-^1^2 \frac{C^2}{N.m^2}$

- The radius for the flux region, $r = 3.3 cm$

- The angle between normal to region and perpendicular to plates, θ = 4°

Find:-

Find the flux (in N · m2/C) through a circle of radius 3.3 cm between the plates.

Solution:-

- First we will determine the area of the region ( Ar ) by using the formula for the area of a circle as follows. The region has a radius of r = 3.3 cm:

$A_r = \pi *r^2\\\\A_r = \pi *(0.033)^2\\\\A_r = 0.00342 m^2$

- The charge density ( σ ) would be considered to be uniform for both plates. It is expressed as the ratio of the charge ( q ) on each plate and its area ( A_p ):

σ = $\frac{q}{A_p} = \frac{17*10^-^6}{0.018} \\$

σ = 0.00094 C / m^2

- We will assume the electric field due to the positive charged plate ( E+ ) / negative charged plate ( E- ) to be equivalent to the electric field ( E ) of an infinitely large charged plate with uniform charge density.

$E+ = E- = \frac{sigma}{2*e_o} \\\\$

- The electric field experienced by a region between two infinitely long charged plates with uniform charge density is the resultant effect of both plates. So from the principle of super-position we have the following net uniform electric field ( E_net ) between the two plates:

$E_n_e_t = (E+) + ( E-)\\\\E_n_e_t = \frac{0.00094}{8.85*10^-^1^2} \\\\E_n_e_t = 106214689.26553 \frac{N}{C} \\$

- From the Gauss-Law the flux ( Φ ) through a region under uniform electric field ( E_net ) at an angle of ( θ ) is:

Φ = E_net * Ar * cos ( θ )

Φ = (106214689.26553) * (0.00342) * cos ( 5 )

Φ = 361872 N.m^2 / C
