Answer: B. water frozen in the cracks of a rock help to break down the rock because water expands when frozen, and physically forces the rock apart
The solution for this is:
Work done = force * distance = m*a*d and power = energy/time
The vo=0 and vf = 25 m/s and t=7 sec. This gives...
3.6 m/s^2 as acceleration and d=87.5 meters and thus F=ma= 5400 N.
Energy = 5400*87.5 = 4.7E5 Joules (2 sig. figs) and Power = 67,500 Watts or 90 HP (2 sig. figs again).
Answer:
a = -7.29 m / s²
Explanation:
For this exercise we must use Newton's second law,
F -W = m a
Force is electrical force
F = k q₁ q₂ / r²
k q₁ q₂ / r² -mg = m a
indicate that the charge of the two spheres is equal
q₁ = q₂ = q
a = (k q² / r² - m g) / m
a = k q² / m r² - g
Let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system
m = 0.19 g (1kg / 1000 g) = 1.9 10⁻⁴ kg
q1 = q2 = q = -23.0 nC (1C / 10⁹ nC) = -23.0 10⁻⁹ C
r = 10.0 cm (1m / 100cm) = 0.1000 m
let's calculate
a = 9 10⁹ (23.0 10⁻⁹)² / (0.1000² 1.9 10⁻⁴) - 9.8
a = -7.29 m / s²
The negative sign indicates that the direction of this acceleration is downward
