Answer:

The moon's orbit draws the oceans to it, which triggers ocean tides. Force produces stars and planets by gathering the mass from which it exists.

A half circle arc with its center at the origin has a linear charge density of λ = 12 nC/m along the arc. The radius of the arc
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge density is  λ = 12 nC/m

And radius 3cm

r=0.03m.

The charge density of a along a circular arc is given as

λ= Q/πr

Then, Q=πrλ

Q=π×0.03×12×10^-9

Q=1.131×10^-9 C

Q=1.131 nC

Then, electric field along x axis is symmetrical and if cancels out

Now, Ey is in the negative direction

Electric field is given as,

Ey=-2kQ/πr²

K is constant =9×10^9Nm²/C²

Ey=-2×9×10^9×1.131×10^-9/(π ×0.03²)

Ey=7200 N/C.

The direction is negative direction of y axis, check attachment for diagram.

b. Electric potential at the origin is given as

V=Ed

d=r=0.03

V=7200×0.03

V=216V

On your first attempt you leave the surface of the earth at v = 5534 m/s. how far from the center of the earth will you get?
Tamiku [17]
<span>It's another energy balance equation, though: energy to start with is the same as energy that you end with. Suppose that we start a distance r0 from the Earth and end a distance r1 from the Moon, then the energy balance gives: 1 v02 - G M / r0 - G m / (D - r0) = 1 v12 - G M / (D - r1) - G m / r1 ...where m is the moon's mass. One simple limit takes D ? ? and 1 v02 ? G M / r0 (the escape velocity equation), to yield: 1 v12 ? G M / r1 v1 ? ?( 2 G M / r1 ) = 2377 m/s.</span>

Why do lithospheric plates move constantly?
Charra [1.4K]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. Lithospheric plates move constantly due to the density differences. Lithospheric plates<span> are another name for tectonic plates, which are part of the Earth's uppermost layer, the crust.</span>

At which position is the roller coaster car's amount of potential energy about equal to the amount of kinetic energy?​
meriva
It will be potential because the roller coaster is going down so it’s not giving off energy to the roller coaster.
