Because they are conducting, when you bring them together the charge is split equally among the two spheres (because they have the same radius the amount of charge is also equal). Now they will repel each other because of the net charge on each with the same polarity.

A car of mass 1000kg is travelling in an eastward ( x) direction with a constant speed of 20m/s. It then hits a stationary truck
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

4.33 m/s, 5 m/s

Explanation:

mass of car, m = 1000 kg

initial velocity of car, u = 20 m/s along east

mass of truck, M = 2 x mass of car = 2000 kg

initial velocity of truck, U = 0 m/s

After collision, the velocity of car is v and the direction is 30° North of east.

The velocity of truck is V and the direction is 60° South of east.

Use conservation of momentum along X axis.

m x u = m x v x Cos 30 + M x V x Cos 60

1000 x 20 = 1000 x v x 0.866 + 2000 x V x 0.5

20 = 0.866 v + V   .... (1)

Use conservation of momentum along y axis

0 = m x v x Sin 30 - M x V x Sin 60

0 = 1000 x v x 0.5 - 2000 x V x 0.866

v = 3.464 V    ..... (2)

Substitute the value of v in equation (1)

20 = 0.866 x 3.464 V + V

V = 5 m/s

v = 0.866 x 5 = 4.33 m/s

Thus, the final speed of car is 4.33 m/s and the final speed of truck is 5 m/s after the collision.

A robot starts from a certain point and moves east for a distance of 5.0 meters, then goes north for 3.0 meters, and then turns
pashok25 [27]

Explanation:

It is given that, a robot starts from a certain point and moves east for a distance of 5.0 meters, then goes north for 3.0 meters, and then turns west for 2.0 meters.

Let east is +x, west is -x north is +y.

When it moves east for a distance of 5.0 meters, it means (5,0)

When it goes north for 3.0 meters, and then turns west for 2.0 meters, it means (0,3) +(-2,0)

(a) x-y coordinates for the resultant vector is (3,3)

(b) The magnitude of the resultant vector for the robot is given by :

R=\sqrt{3^2+3^2} \\\\R=4.24\ m

Describe one common critique or criticism of Utilitarianism. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this criticism?
lisabon 2012 [21]
The second most common criticism of utilitarianism is that it is impossible to apply - that happiness (etc) cannot be quantified or measured, that there is no way of calculating a trade-off between intensity and extent, or intensity and probability (etc), or comparing happiness to suffering.
