Explanation:

Weight (N) = Mass * Acceleration

75.74 kg = Mass * 9.8 m/sec^2

Mass = 7.72 kg

Weight = 75.74 N

I’m pretty sure it would be 10/20= 0.5m/s2

What has a larger capacitance, an aluminum sphere with a 10 cm diameter or one with a 100 cm diameter? Question 16 options: 10 c

creativ13 [48]

$\boxed{\sf C=\dfrac{Q}{V}}$

But

$\boxed{\sf \Delta V_{R_2\to R_1}={\displaystyle{\int}^{R_1}_{R_2}}dV=-{\displaystyle{\int}^{R_1}_{R_2}}\dfrac{kQ}{r^2}dR}$

Hence higher the radius lower the voltage
Lower the voltage higher the capacitance .

<h3>100cm diameter having aluminium sphere has a larger capacitance</h3>

The froghopper Philaenus spumarius is supposedly the best jumper in the animal kingdom. To start a jump, this insect can acceler

Kay [80]

Answer:

Part a)

$v_f = 4 m/s$

Part b)

$t = 0.001 s$

Part c)

$d = 0.815 m$

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that initially the grass hopper is at rest at the ground position

Now the acceleration is given as

$a = 4000 m/s^2$

distance of the legs that it stretched is given as

$s = 2.0 mm$

so we have

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d$

$v_f^2 - 0 = 2(4000)(0.002)$

$v_f = 4 m/s$

Part b)

time taken to reach this speed is given as

$v_f - v_i = at$

$4 - 0 = 4000 t$

$t = 0.001 s$

Part c)

as the grass hopper reach the maximum height its final speed would be zero

so we will have

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d$

$0 - 4^2 = 2(-9.81) d$

$d = 0.815 m$

Calculate the current through the ammeter (look at photo)

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

6 amps

Explanation:by Kirchhoff's loop rule the current at any point in the loop must be equal or charge would be building up. The current at the ammeter is equally to the total current through the sun of the paths in parallel which it is in series with
