Answer:

A. Both spheres land at the same time.

Explanation:

The horizontal motion doesn't affect the vertical motion.  Since the two spheres have the same initial vertical velocity and same initial height, they land at the same time.

Answer:

A. Both spheres land at the same time.

Explanation:

If air resistance and friction are ignored, then both spheres land at the same time. Falling objects fall toward the center of the Earth with the same constant acceleration, independent of their mass, when they are defined to be in free-fall. For an object to be in free-fall, it has to be in a situation in which both air resistance and friction are considered negligible. This is true regardless of the direction of the fall.

Two large, parallel, nonconducting sheets of positive charge face each other. What is at points (a) to the left of the sheets, (
alexira [117]

Answer:

a)The electric Field will be zero at the point between the sheets

b)E_1=\dfrac{\sigma}{\epsilon_0}

c)E_2=\dfrac{\sigma}{\epsilon_0}

Explanation:

Let \sigma be the surface charge density of the of the non conducting parallel sheet.Let consider a Gaussian surface in the form of of cylinder such that its cross-sectional is A . Then there will be flux only due to cross sectional area as the curved sectional is perpendicular to the the electric field  so the Electric Flux due to it is zero.

Now using Gauss law we have, E be the electric Field at the distance r from the sheet then

E\times 2A=\dfrac{\sigma A}{\epsilon_0}\\E=\dfrac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}

The Field will be away from the sheet and perpendicular to it.

a) The Electric Field between them

E_1=\dfrac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}-\dfrac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}\\=0

b)The Electric Field to the right of the sheets

E_1=\dfrac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}+\dfrac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}\\=\dfrac{\sigma}{\epsilon_0}

c)The Electric Field to the left of the sheets

E_2=\dfrac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}+\dfrac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}\\=\dfrac{\sigma}{\epsilon_0}
