When the sun's rays strike Earth's surface near the equator, the incoming solar radiation is more direct (nearly perpendicular or closer to a 90˚ angle). Therefore, the solar radiation is concentrated over a smaller surface area, causing warmer temperatures.

What is the mass of a football player if they are running at 3.6 m/s with a momentum of 62.5kgm/s?
ioda

momentum = mass * velocity

62.5 = mass * 3.6

mass = 62.5/3.6

mass = 17.36 kg

Person is lifting a 250 N dumbbell. The weight is 30 cm from the pivot point of the elbow. What force must be exerted five from
qwelly [4]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

The force, F, is applied at 5 cm from the elbow.

For dynamic equilibrium, the sum of moments about the elbow is zero.
Take moments about the elbow.
(5 cm)*(F N) - (30 cm)*(250 N) = 0
F = (30*250)/5 = 1500 N

Answer: 1500 N

Which statements are true for two oppositely charged, isolated parallel plates: C=capacitance, U=stored energy (Q and -Q = charg
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

Explanation:

1) True. The stored energy (U) is proportional to the electric field strength (E). The electric field strength decreases when a dielectric is introduced hence inserting a dielectric decreases U.

2) False. From the formula C=\frac{Q}{V}=\frac{Q}{Vd}, capacitance is inversely proportional to distance hence if the distance is doubled, capacitance decreases.

3) False. As the distance between the electric field and the object increases, its electric field decreases.

4) False. If a dielectric is inserted, the plates are further separated. Q stays the same.

5) True. The electric field strength decreases when a dielectric is introduced and  capacitance is inversely proportional to electric field hence Inserting a dielectric increases C

6) True. If a dielectric is inserted, the plates are further separated. Q stays the same.

7) True. When the distance is doubled, U increases
