Answer:

40N

Explanation:

Given that Ja , Daniel and Helen are pulling a metal ring. Ja pulls with a force of 100N in one direction and Daniel with a force of 140N in the opposite direction. If the ring doesn't move. What force does Helen exert if she pulls in the same direction as Ja ?

Since the ring does not move, that means the forces are in equilibrium.

That is, sum of the forces is equal to zero.

Since Helen is also pulling in the direction of ja, let Helen force be equal to F. The equilibrium of forces among ja, Helen and Daniel can be expressed as:

F + 100 - 140 = 0

That is,

F + 100 = 140

Make F the subject of formula

F = 140 - 100

F = 40N.

Therefore, the force Helen exert if she pulls in the same direction as Ja is 40N.

State two uses of high specific heat of water​
Nitella [24]
  • It helps in regulating extremes in the environment.
  • It can be used as a car radiators.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The amount of heat needed to raise a certain amount of temperature to the water is known as the specific heat of the water. For one gram of water to increase 1 degree celsius, water needs to absorb 4.184 J of heat.

Some of the uses of high specific heat of water are as follows,

  • The temperature of the water will remain the same from day to night in ponds or sea. During day time, the hot air from the sea or pond rises while the cool air from the sea moves to take its place. During the night, the hot air from the land moves to take its place, giving rise to a land breeze and thus maintaining the environment.
  • Another example, When water is circulated throughout an engine, heat will get absorbed. This water is pumped to a radiator and then disposed to the surrounding air.

What is the wavelength, in nm, of a photon with energy
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

(a)  λ = 4136 nm → infrared

(b) λ = 413.6 nm → visible light

(c) λ = 41.36 nm → ultraviolet

Explanation:

The wavelength of infrared is on the range of 700 nm to 1000000 nm

The wavelength of visible light is between 400 nm and 700 nm

The wavelength of ultraviolet ray on the range of 10 nm to 400 nm

The wavelength of photon is given by;

E = hf

f is the frequency of the wave = c / λ

E = h\frac{c}{\lambda}\\\\ \lambda = \frac{hc}{E}

Where;

c is the speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

h is Planck's constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J/s

(a) 0.3 eV = 0.3 x 1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

\lambda = \frac{(6.626 * 10^{-34})(3*10^8)}{(0.3)*(1.602*10^{-19})}\\\\\lambda = 4.136 *10^{-6} \ m

λ = 4136 x 10⁻⁹ m

λ = 4136 nm → infrared

(b) 3.0 eV

\lambda = \frac{(6.626 * 10^{-34})(3*10^8)}{(3)*(1.602*10^{-19})}\\\\\lambda = 4.136 *10^{-7} \ m

λ = 413.6 x 10⁻⁹ m

λ = 413.6 nm →visible light

(c) 30 eV

\lambda = \frac{(6.626 * 10^{-34})(3*10^8)}{(30)*(1.602*10^{-19})}\\\\\lambda = 4.136 *10^{-8} \ m

λ = 41.36 x 10⁻⁹ m

λ = 41.36 nm →ultraviolet

A. Draw the electric field lines around a negative charge.
Alborosie
<h2>a. Answer:</h2>

We use Electric field lines for visualizing electric  fields, so this helps us to see the problem more real. So an electric field line is an imaginary  line or curve drawn through a region of space such that the tangent at any point comes from the direction of the electric-field vector at that point. The electric field lines around a negative charge is shown in the First figure below.

<h2>b. Answer:</h2>

Electric forces can be found by using the Coulomb Law's that states <em>that The magnitude of the electric force between two point charges is directly proportional  to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square  of the distance between them. </em>This can be expressed as follows:

F=k\frac{\left | q_{1}q_{2} \right |}{r^2} \\ \\ Where: \\ \\ k=9\times 10^9Nm^2/c^2 \\ \\ q_{1}=0.00150 C \ and \ q_{2}=0.00240 C \\ \\ r=0.900 m

Then:

F=9\times 10^9\frac{\left | 0.00150 \times 0.00240 \right |}{(0.900)^2} \\ \\ \therefore \boxed{F=40000N}

This force is repulsive because the two charges are positive and recall that two positive charges or two negative charges repel each other while a positive charge  and a negative charge attract each other.

<h2>C. Answer:</h2>

From the statement, we have two charged objects. Let's say that this charges are:

q_{1} \ and \ q_{2}

If the amount of charge on one of the objects is tripled, let's say this is the charge q_{2}, then the new charge is:

q_{N}=3q_{2}

In the formula of Coulomb:

F=k\frac{\left | q_{1}q_{N} \right |}{r^2} \\ \\ \therefore F=k\frac{\left | q_{1}(3q_{2}) \right |}{r^2} \\ \\ \therefore \boxed{F=3k\frac{\left | q_{1}q_{2} \right |}{r^2}}

<em>The conclusion is that if the amount of charge on one of the objects is tripled, the electric force between two charged objects is also tripled</em>

<h2>d. Answer:</h2>

Let's use the Coulomb's Law again to solve this problem. We want to know how the electric force between two charged objects changes if the charges are moved closer together:

F=k\frac{\left | q_{1}q_{N} \right |}{r^2}

<em>By saying that the charges are moved closer together, we want to express that r becomes smaller. Since r is in the denominator, this implies that the electric force between these two charged objects becomes greater.</em>

<h2>e. Answer:</h2>

From the figure, we can see a metal sphere on a stand. There we have both positive and negative charges. We can say that the positive charge of this sphere is +10q and the negative and the negative charge is -10q. Since the electric charge is conserved, then the algebraic sum of all the electric charges in any closed system is constant. In conclusion, <em>the sphere has no net charge.</em>

<h2>f. Answer:</h2>

Here we want to know how the negative charges in the same sphere are redistributed when a positively charged rod is brought near it. Therefore, positive charge on rod  repels positive charges on the sphere, creating  zones of negative and  positive charge as indicated in the second Figure.

When a medium is disturbed by a wave, does it move with the wave?
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

As they vibrate, they pass the energy of the disturbance to the particles next to them, which pass the energy to the particles next to them, and so on. Particles of the medium don't actually travel along with the wave. Only the energy of the wave travels through the medium
