Since its a sphere, the top is seen first because its the tallest part if the ship. If the earth was flat, the whole ship would be seen.

A girl at an airport rolls a ball north on a moving walking that moves east. If the ball’s speed with respect to the walkway is

sweet-ann [11.9K]

We have to add two vectors.

Vector #1: 0.15 m/s north

Vector #2: 1.50 m/s east

Their sum:

Magnitude: √(0.15² + 1.50²)

Magnitude = √(0.0225+2.25)

Magnitude = √2.2725

Magnitude = <em>1.5075 m/s</em>

Direction = arctan(0.15/1.50) north of east

Direction = <em>5.71° north of east</em>

Suppose you throw a ball vertically upward with a speed of 49 m/s. Neglecting air friction, what would be the height of the ball

vlabodo [156]

Answer:

78.4 m

Explanation:

Using newton's equation of motion,

S = ut + 1/2gt²......................... Equation 1

Where S = Height, t = time, u = initial velocity, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Note: Taking upward to be negative, and down ward positive

Given: u = 49 m/s, t = 2.0 s, g = -9.8 m/s²

Substitute into equation 1

S = 49(2) - 1/2(9.8)(2)²

S = 98 - 19.6

S = 78.4 m

Hence the height of the ball two seconds later = 78.4 m

Answer:

a E = $1.685*10^3 N/C$

b E = $36.69*10^3 N/C$

c E = 0 N/C

d $V = 6.7*10^3 V$

e $V = 26.79*10^3V$

f V = $34.67 *10^3 V$

g $V= 44.95*10^3 V$

h $V= 44.95*10^3 V$

i $V= 44.95*10^3 V$

Explanation:

From the question we are given that

The first charge $q_1 = 2.00 \mu C = 2.00*10^{-6} C$

The second charge $q_2 =1.00 \muC = 1.00*10^{-6}$

The first radius $R_1 = 0.500m$

The second radius $R_2 = 1.00m$

$Generally \ Electric \ field = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{q_1+\ q_2}{r^2}$

And $Potential \ Difference = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} [\frac{q_1 }{r}+\frac{q_2}{R_2} ]$

The objective is to obtain the the magnitude of electric for different cases

And the potential difference for other cases

Considering a

r = 4.00 m

$E = \frac{((2+1)*10^{-6})*8.99*10^9}{16}$

$= 1.685*10^3 N/C$

Considering b

$r = 0.700 m \ , R_2 > r > R_1$

This implies that the electric field would be

$E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{q_1}{r^2}$

This because it the electric filed of the charge which is below it in distance that it would feel

$E = 8*99*10^9 \frac{2*10^{-6}}{0.4900}$

= $36.69*10^3 N/C$

Considering c

r = 0.200 m

=> $r$

The electric field = 0

This is because the both charge are above it in terms of distance so it wont feel the effect of their electric field

Considering d

r = 4.00 m

=> $r > R_1 >r>R_2$

Now the potential difference is

$V =\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} \frac{q_1 + \ q_2}{r} = 8.99*10^9 * \frac{3*10^{-6}}{4} = 6.7*10^3 V$

This so because the distance between the charge we are considering is further than the two charges given

Considering e

r = 1.00 m $R_2 = r > R_1$

$V = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} [\frac{q_1}{r} +\frac{q_2}{R_2} ] = 8.99*10^9 * [\frac{2.00*10^{-6}}{1.00} \frac{1.00*10^{-6}}{1.00} ] = 26.79 *10^3 V$

Considering f

$r = 0.700 m \ , R_2 > r > R_1$

$V = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} [\frac{q_1}{r} +\frac{q_2}{R_2} ] = 8.99*10^9 * [\frac{2.00*10^{-6}}{0.700} \frac{1.0*10^{-6}}{1.00} ] = 34.67 *10^3 V$

Considering g

$r =0.500\m , R_1 >r =R_1$

$V = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} [\frac{q_1}{r} +\frac{q_2}{R_2} ] = 8.99*10^9 * [\frac{2.00*10^{-6}}{0.500} \frac{1.0*10^{-6}}{1.00} ] = 44.95 *10^3 V$

Considering h

$r =0.200\m , R_1 >R_1>r$

$V = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} [\frac{q_1}{R_1} +\frac{q_2}{R_2} ] = 8.99*10^9 * [\frac{2.00*10^{-6}}{0.500} \frac{1.0*10^{-6}}{1.00} ] = 44.95 *10^3 V$

Considering i

$r =0\ m \ , R_1 >R_1>r$

$V = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} [\frac{q_1}{R_1} +\frac{q_2}{R_2} ] = 8.99*10^9 * [\frac{2.00*10^{-6}}{0.500} \frac{1.0*10^{-6}}{1.00} ] = 44.95 *10^3 V$

Can you answer the b. thanks

levacccp [35]

Answer:

current going into a junction in a circuit is EQUAL TO the current comming out of the junction.

Explanation:

Krichhoff's Current Law

Kirchhoff's current law (1st Law) states that current flowing into a node (or a junction) must be equal to current flowing out of it.
