Alik [6]2 years ago

Answer:

To calculate anything - speed, acceleration, all that - we need <em>data</em>. The more data we have, and the more accurate that data is, the more accurate our calculations will be. To collect that data, we need to <em>measure </em>it somehow. To measure anything, we need tools and a method. Speed is a measure of distance over time, so we'll need tools for measuring <em>time </em>and <em>distance</em>, and a method for measuring each.

Conveniently, the lamp posts in this problem are equally spaced, and we can treat that spacing as our measuring stick. To measure speed, we'll need to bring time in somehow too, and that's where the stopwatch comes in. A good method might go like this:

  1. Press start on the stopwatch right as you pass a lamp post
  2. Each time you pass another lamp post, press the lap button on the stopwatch
  3. Press stop after however many lamp posts you'd like, making sure to hit stop right as you pass the last lamp post
  4. Record your data
  5. Calculate the time intervals for passing each lamp post using the lap data
  6. Calculate the average of all those invervals and divide by 40 m - this will give you an approximate average speed

Of course, you'll never find an *exact* amount, but the more data points you have, the better your approximation will become.

Answer:

Answer: The Sun, the Moon, the planets, and the stars all rise in the east and set in the west. And that's because Earth spins -- toward the east. ... Earth rotates or spins toward the east, and that's why the Sun, Moon, planets, and stars all rise in the east and make their way westward across the sky.

Air "breaks down" when the electric field strength reaches 3 × 106 n/c, causing a spark. A parallel-plate capacitor is made from
Lera25 [3.4K]

Electric field between the plates of parallel plate capacitor is given as

E = \frac{Q}{A\epsilon_0}

here area of plates of capacitor is given as

A = 0.055 * 0.055

A = 3.025 * 10^{-3}

also the maximum field strength is given as

E = 3 * 10^6 N/C

now we will plug in all data to find the maximum possible charge on capacitor plates

3 * 10^6 = \frac{Q}{3.025 * 10^{-3}*8.85 * 10^{-12}}

Q = 8.03 * 10^{-8} C

so the maximum charge that plate will hold will be given by above

If each washer has a mass of 4.9 g, then the mass of two washers in kilograms would be Given that F = ma, and if 4 washers are a
zysi [14]

Given that,

Mass of each washer  = 4.9 g

We need to calculate the mass of two washers in kg

Using conversion of unit

Mass of each washer m= 4.9\times10^{-3}\ Kg

So, Mass of two washers is

M=2\times m

Put the value of m

M=2\times4.9\times10^{-3}\ k

M=0.0098\ Kg

If 4 washer are attached to the spring

We need to calculate the applied force on the car

Using formula of force

F=mg

Put the value into the formula

F=4\times4.9\times10^{-3}\times9.8

F=0.192\ N

Hence, (i), The mass of two washers is 0.0098 kg.

(ii). The applied force on the car is 0.192 N.
