The distance between two protons to generate 950N of force is 0.49 X 10⁻¹⁵ m

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Mass of man, m = 100 kg

Force between man and earth = 980 N

Charge of proton, q = 1.6 X 10⁻¹⁹C

Same force is generated between them

Distance between two protons, r = ?

According to Coulomb's law:

F = k\frac{q_1q_2}{r^2}

where,

k is Coulomb's constant

k = 9 X 10⁹ Nm²/C²

According to the question:

950 = k\frac{q_1q_2}{r^2}

Solving the equation:

950  = (9X10^9) X\frac{(1.6 X 10^-^1^9 X 1.6 X 10^-^1^9)}{r^2} \\\\r^2 = \frac{(9 X 10^9) (1.6 X 10^-^1^9 X 1.6 X 10^-^1^9)}{950} \\\\r^2 = 0.024 X 10^-^2^9\\\\r^2 = 0.24 X 10^-^3^0\\\\r = 0.49 X 10^-^1^5 m

Therefore, the distance between two protons to generate 950N of force is 0.49 X 10⁻¹⁵ m

Calculated the measurement uncertainty for Kinetic Energy when :mass = 1.3[kg] +/- 0.4[kg]velocity= 5.2 [m/s] +/- 0.2 [m/s]KE= 1
andriy [413]

Answer:

\rm KE\pm \Delta KE = 17.6\pm 6.8\ J.

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • Mass, \rm m\pm\Delta m = 1.3\pm 0.4\ kg.
  • Velocity, \rm v\pm \Delta v = 5.2\pm 0.2\ m/s.

where,

\rm \Delta m,\ \Delta v are the uncertainties in mass and velocity respectively.

The kinetic energy is given by

\rm KE = \dfrac 12 mv^2 = \dfrac 12 \times 1.3\times 5.2^2=17.576\approx 17.6\ J.

The uncertainty in kinetic energy is given as:

\rm \dfrac{\Delta KE}{KE}=\dfrac{\Delta m}{m}+\dfrac{2\Delta v}{v}\\\dfrac{\Delta KE}{17.6}=\dfrac{0.4}{1.3}+\dfrac{2\times 0.2}{5.2}\\\dfrac{\Delta KE}{17.6}=0.384\\\Rightarrow \Delta KE = 17.6\times 0.384 = 6.7854\ J\approx6.8\ J\\\\Thus,\\\\KE\pm \Delta KE = 17.6\pm 6.8\ J.

Passengers on an airplane move from rest to 86 meters per second before the airplane takes off. If the airplane takes 100 second
VikaD [51]

Utilize the formula:  V _{f} = V _{i} + a\Delta t

V _{f} = Final Velocity (86 m/s)

V _{f} = Initial Velocity (0 m/s)

a = acceleration (m/s²)

\Deltat = Time (100 seconds)

As a result,

86 m/s = 0 + (a)(100 seconds)

Using algebra, divide 86 m/s by 100 seconds:

86 m/s = 100a

a = 0.86 m/s²

Rounded to one decimal place: 0.9 m/s²

Which description of energy changes in nuclear reactions is correct?
Kryger [21]
The answer for this question is letter "B.Fission releases energy, and its products have greater stability."

Fission and Fusion are both nuclear reactions that when they release energy, they make the nuclei more stable. So among the choices, option B is the most fitting for the definition.

A horizontal compass is placed 21 cm due south from a straight vertical wire carrying a 36 a current downward. in what direction
Anit [1.1K]

 <span>
The needle of a compass will always lies along the magnetic field lines of the earth. 
A magnetic declination at a point on the earth’s surface equal to zero implies that 
the horizontal component of the earth’s magnetic field line at that specific point lies along 
the line of the north-south magnetic poles. </span>

The presence of a current-carrying wire creates an additional <span>
magnetic field that combines with the earth’s magnetic field. Since magnetic 
<span>fields are vector quantities, therefore the magnetic field of the earth and the magnetic field of the vertical wire must be combined vectorially. </span></span>

<span>
Where:</span>

B1 = magnetic field of the earth along the x-axis = 0.45 × 10 ⁻ ⁴ T

B2 = magnetic field due to the straight vertical wire along the y-axis

We can calculate for B2 using Amperes Law:

B2 = μ₀ i / [ 2 π R ]

B2 = [ 4π × 10 ⁻ ⁷ T • m / A ] ( 36 A ) / [ 2 π (0.21 m ) ] <span>
B2 = 5.97 × 10 ⁻ ⁵ T = 0.60 × 10 ⁻ ⁴ T </span>

The angle can be calculated using tan function:<span>
tan θ = y / x = B₂ / B₁ = 0.60 × 10 ⁻ ⁴ T / 0.45 × 10 ⁻ ⁴ T <span>
tan θ = 1.326</span></span>

θ = 53°

<span>
<span>The compass needle points along the direction of 53° west of north.</span></span>
