Answer:

A. 2.2 ɥC

Explanation:

Given;

electric field strength, E = 1236 N/C

distance of the source charge, r = 4 m

Electric field strength is calculated as;

E = \frac{kQ}{r^2}

where;

Q is the magnitude of the source charge

k is Coulomb's constant = 9 x 10⁹ Nm²/C²

E = \frac{kQ}{r^2} \\\\kQ = Er^2\\\\Q = \frac{Er^2}{k} \\\\Q = \frac{(1236)(4^2)}{9 \ \times \ 10^9} \\\\Q = 2.197 \ \times \ 10^{-6} \ C\\\\Q = 2.197 \ \mu \ C

Therefore, the correct option is A. 2.2 ɥC

A racecar experiences a centripetal acceleration of 36.0 m/s2 as it travels at a constant speed of 27.0 m/s along a circular arc
alexdok [17]

Answer:

20.25 m

Explanation:

  • <u>Centripetal acceleration </u>is given by; the square of the velocity, divided by the radius of the circular path.

That is;

         <em><u>ac = v²/r</u></em>

<em>         </em><em><u> Where; ac = acceleration, centripetal, m/s², v is the velocity, m/s and r is the  radius, m</u></em>

Therefore;

r = v²/ac

  = 27²/36

  = 20.25 m

Hence the radius is 20.25 meters

KengaRu [80]
If a ship will be sailing through warm and cold water, people think about making it less dense than the warmest water as they load the ship with cargo. I think you forgot to give the options along with the question. I hope that this is the answer that has actually come to your desired help.

Astronomers have found water on mars.
vodomira [7]

The thin atmosphere of Mars is thought to be due to the planet's lack of a magnetic field, which has allowed the Solar wind to blow away much of the gas the planet once had. Venus, despite still having a thick atmosphere of CO2, surprisingly has a similar problem
