Answer:

The other student (59kg) moves right at 7.44 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the first student, m₁ = 77kg

mass of the second student, m₂ = 59kg

initial velocity of the first student, u₁ = 0

initial velocity of the second student, u₂ = 0

final velocity of the first student, v₁ = 5.7 m/s left

final velocity of the second student, v₂ = ? right

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum;

Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

(77 x 0) + (59 x 0) = (-77 x 5.7) + (59 x  v₂)

0 = - 438.9 + 59v₂

59v₂ = 438.9

v₂ = 438.9 / 59

v₂ = 7.44 m/s to the right

Therefore, the other student (59kg) moves right at 7.44 m/s

A solid metal sphere with radius 0.430 m carries a net charge of 0.270 nC . Part A Find the magnitude of the electric field at a
rodikova [14]

Answer:

8.46 N/C

Explanation:

Using Gauss law

E=\frac {kQ}{r^{2}}

Gauss's Law states that the electric flux through a surface is proportional to the net charge in the surface, and that the electric field E of a point charge Q at a distance r from the charge

Here, K is Coulomb's constant whose value is 9\times 10^{9} Nm^{2}/C^{2}

r = 0.43 + 0.106 = 0.536 m

E=\frac {9\times 10^{9}\times 0.270\times 10^{-9}}{0.536^{2}}=8.4581755402094007\approx 8.46 N/C

An infinite sheet carries a uniform, positive charge per unit area. The electric field produced by the sheet is represented by p
nexus9112 [7]

Complete Question

An infinite sheet carries a uniform, positive charge per unit area. The electric field produced by the sheet is represented by parallel lines drawn with a density N lines per m2 that are perpendicular to and away from the sheet. The charge per unit area on the sheet is doubled. How should the density of the electric field lines be changed?

A It should stay the same

B  It should be quadrupled.

C It should be quintupled

D It should be doubled.

E It should be tripled

Answer:

Option D is the correct option

Explanation:

Generally electric field is mathematically represented as

        E =  \frac{\sigma}{\epsilon_o}

Where \sigma is the charge per unit area (Charge density )

From the question we are told that \sigma is doubled hence the

     E =  \frac{2 \sigma }{\epsilon_o}    

Looking the equation above we see that the value of the electric field will also double given that it is directly proportional to the charge density

What is the general pattern of the planetary distances from the sun
eimsori [14]

Answer:

The Titius–Bode law (sometimes termed just Bode's law) is a hypothesis that the bodies in some orbital systems, including the Sun's, orbit at semi-major axes in a function of planetary sequence. The formula suggests that, extending outward, each planet would be approximately twice as far from the Sun as the one before.
