Answer:

The number of charges is 1.25 × 10¹⁰

Explanation:

Current is the amount of charge flowing through a conductor per second. The formula for current (I) is given as:

I = Q/t

Where Q is the charge flowing in coulombs and t is the time taken in seconds.

Given that I = 2.0 nA = 2 × 10⁻⁹ A and t = 1 sec

I = Q / t

Q = It = 2 × 10⁻⁹ × 1 = 2 × 10⁻⁹ C

Since each charge = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C, therefore:

The number of charges = 2 × 10⁻⁹ C / 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C = 1.25 × 10¹⁰

To analyze the motion of a body that is traveling along a curved path, to determine the body's acceleration, velocity, and posit

DiKsa [7]

To solve this problem we will apply the kinematic equations of linear motion and centripetal motion. For this purpose we will be guided by the definitions of centripetal acceleration to relate it to the tangential velocity. With these equations we will also relate the linear velocity for which we will find the points determined by the statement. Our values are given as

$R = 350ft$

$a_t = 1.1ft/s^2$

PART A )

$a_c = \frac{V^2}{R}$

$a_c = \frac{V^2}{350}$

Calculate the velocity of the motorcycle when the net acceleration of the motorcycle is $5.25ft/s^2$

$a = \sqrt{a_t^2+a_r^2}$

$5.25 = \sqrt{(1.1)^2+(\frac{v^2}{350})^2}$

$27.5625 = 1.21 + \frac{v^4}{122500}$

$v=42.3877ft/s$

Now calculate the angular velocity of the motorcycle

$v = r\omega$

$42.3877 = 350\omega$

$\omega = 0.1211rad/s$

Calculate the angular acceleration of the motorcycle

$a_t = r\alpha$

$1.1 = 350\alpha$

$\alpha = 3.1428*10^{-3}rad/s^2$

Calculate the time needed by the motorcycle to reach an acceleration of

$5.25ft/s^2$

$\omega = \alpha t$

$0.1211 = 3.1428*10^{-3}t$

$t = 38.53s$

PART B) Calculate the velocity of the motorcycle when the net acceleration of the motorcycle is $6.75ft/s^2$

$a = \sqrt{a_t^2+a_r^2}$

$6.75 = \sqrt{(1.1)^2+(\frac{v^2}{350})^2}$

$45.5625 = 1.21 + \frac{v^4}{122500}$

$v=48.2796ft/s$

PART C)

Calculate the radial acceleration of the motorcycle when the velocity of the motorcycle is $21.5ft/s$

$a_r = \frac{v^2}{R}$

$a_r = \frac{21.5^2}{350}$

$a_r =1.3207ft/s^2$

Calculate the net acceleration of the motorcycle when the velocity of the motorcycle is $21.5ft/s$

$a = \sqrt{a_t^2+a_r^2}$

$a = \sqrt{(1.1)^2+(1.3207)^2}$

$a = 1.7187ft/s^2$

PART D) Calculate the maximum constant speed of the motorcycle when the maximum acceleration of the motorcycle is $6.75ft/s^2$

$a = \sqrt{a_t^2+a_r^2}$

$6.75 = \sqrt{(1.1)^2+(\frac{v^2}{350})^2}$

$45.5625 = 1.21 + \frac{v^4}{122500}$

$v=48.2796ft/s$

Suppose the entire population of the world gathers in ONE spot and everyone jumps at the sound of a prearranged signal. While ev

puteri [66]

Answer:

(b) Yes, the earth gains momentum but the change in momentum of the earth is much lesser compared to that of everyone in the air. The resistance to motion (inertia of the earth), which is a function of its mass is so great that the earth's acceleration is small in the given time frame.

Explanation:

From Newton's second law which can be stated mathematically as

F = m(v-u)/t = ma.

By Newton's law of gravitation, there is a force between the earth and everyone in the air. This force is responsible for the change in momentum of everyone in the air and this force gives them an acceleration equal to g = 9.80m/s². By Newton's law of gravitation and Newton's third law of motion, this force is also equal to the force exerted by everyone on the earth.

For this to be true,

F = M (everyone) ×a (everyone) = M(earth) × a (earth).

And

a (earth) = {M (everyone) ×a (everyone) }/M (earth)

Then

a (earth) must be lesser than a (everyone) since M(earth) >> M(everyone).

a = change in momentum/ time

Therefore the earth will have a much lesser change in momentum which is the reason we won't notice the earth's movement.

Find the voltage across the 15 Q resistor.<br> [?] V<br><br> No links please

Margaret [11]

Answer:

Explanation:

same idea as before Liam, first, find the parallel resistance in 35 || 20

(35*20) / (35+20) = 700 / 55 = 12.727272 ohms

now add the 12.727272 + 15 = 27.727272 ohms total resistance

V = IR

10 = I * 27.727272

10 / 27.727272 = I

0.360655 = I

V = IR (again, but across the 15 ohm resistor)

V = 0.360655 * 15

V = 5.4098
