A small metal bead, labeled A, has a charge of 28 nC .It is touched to metal bead B, initially neutral, so that the two beads sh

are the 28 nC charge, but not necessarily equally. When the two beads are then placed 5.0 cmapart, the force between them is 4.8×10^−4 N . Assume that A has a greater charge. What is the charge qA and qB on the beads?

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the charge on bead A be q nC and the charge on bead B be 28nC - qnC

Force F between them

4.8\times10^{-4} = $\frac{9\times10^9\times q\times(28-q)\times10^{-18}}{(5\times10^{-2})^2}$

=120 x 10⁻⁸ = 9 x q(28 - q ) x 10⁻⁹

133.33 = 28q - q²

q²- 28q +133.33 = 0

It is a quadratic equation , which has two solution

q_A = 21.91 x 10⁻⁹C or q_B = 6.09 x 10⁻⁹ C

A sled of mass 50 kg is pulled along a snow-covered, flat ground. The static friction coefficient is 0.3 and the kinetic frictio

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

a) We kindly invite you to see below the Free Body Diagram of the forces acting on the sled.

b) The weight of the sled is 490.35 newtons.

c) A force of 147.105 newtons is needed to start the sled moving.

d) A force of 49.035 newtons is needed to keep the sled moving at a constant velocity.

Explanation:

a) We kindly invite you to see below the Free Body Diagram of the forces acting on the sled. All forces are listed:

$F$ - External force exerted on the sled, measured in newtons.

$f$ - Friction force, measured in newtons.

$N$ - Normal force from the ground on the mass, measured in newtons.

$W$ - Weight, measured in newtons.

b) The weight of the sled is determined by the following formula:

$W = m\cdot g$ (1)

Where:

$m$ - Mass, measured in kilograms.

$g$ - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

If we know that $m = 50\,kg$ and $g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ , the weight of the sled is:

$W = (50\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)$

$W = 490.35\,N$

The weight of the sled is 490.35 newtons.

c) The minimum force needed to start the sled moving on the horizontal ground is:

$F_{min,s} = \mu_{s}\cdot W$ (2)

Where:

$\mu_{s}$ - Static coefficient of friction, dimensionless.

$W$ - Weight of the sled, measured in newtons.

If we know that $\mu_{s} = 0.3$ and $W = 490.35\,N$ , then the force needed to start the sled moving is:

$F_{min,s} = 0.3\cdot (490.35\,N)$

$F_{min,s} = 147.105\,N$

A force of 147.105 newtons is needed to start the sled moving.

d) The minimum force needed to keep the sled moving at constant velocity is:

$F_{min,k} = \mu_{k}\cdot W$ (3)

Where $\mu_{k}$ is the kinetic coefficient of friction, dimensionless.

If we know that $\mu_{k} = 0.1$ and $W = 490.35\,N$ , then the force needed to keep the sled moving at a constant velocity is:

$F_{min,k} = 0.1\cdot (490.35\,N)$

$F_{min,k} = 49.035\,N$

A force of 49.035 newtons is needed to keep the sled moving at a constant velocity.

You are at the edge of a diving board that is 9 meters above the water. If you weigh 500 Newtons, what is your potential energy?

Semenov [28]

Answer:

4500 J

Explanation:

First, let's define some equations and derivations.

Our potential energy formula is:

$\displaystyle U = mgh$

Where <em>m </em>is mass (in kg), <em>g</em> is the gravitational constant (in m/s²), and <em>h</em> is height (in m).

We also know that <em>mg</em> is equal to the weight of an object (in N), from Newton's 2nd Law of Motion: F = ma (Force is equal to [constant] mass times acceleration).

Therefore, we can simply substitute force into the equation:

$\displaystyle U = Fh$

Where <em>F</em> is the force (in N) and <em>h</em> is still height (in m).

Now we can calculate the amount of potential energy in our system, measured in joules.

Substitute in the given variables, F = 500 N and h = 9 m:

$\displaystyle U = (500 \ N)(9 \ m)$

Using simple Pre-Algebra rules, we find that:

$\displaystyle U = 4500 \ J$

This tells us that the we have 4500 joules of potential energy when I am 9 meters above the water on the edge of the diving board.
