<span>Alice and Tom will reach the surface of the lake at the same time. In this problem. Both Alice and Tom have 2 components to their velocities. A horizontal component and an increasing vertical component due to gravity. They start out with different horizontal components, but that component does not in any way contribute to their vertical velocities. Since they both started out at the same height and the same vertical velocities, they will reach the surface of the lake at the same time.</span>

A positive charge of 6.0 × 10-4 C is in an electric field that exerts a force of 4.5 × 10-4 N on it. What is the strength of the
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

0.75 NC⁻¹

Explanation:

Electric field intensity ( or strength of the electric field ) is the force per a 1 C charge,

So, Force (F) = Electric field intensity(E) × Charge (q)

                 F = E×q ⇒ q = F/E

                                      = 4.5×10⁻⁴/6×10⁻⁴ = 0.75 NC⁻¹

According to cool om's law electric fields are generated due to charges. When charges are same there is a repulsive force acted on both charges. When charges are opposite there is a attraction force acted  on both charges.

According to cool om's law,

F =G×q1×q2 / r²

F = force exerted of two charges

q1 , q2 = charges

r = distance between two charges

And also Electric field intensity is a vector which has a magnitude and direction both. Direction is depending on a charge and the sign of the charge

A ball is thrown off the top of a building and lands on the ground below.
natita [175]

Answer:

Mass and velocity.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy <u>is the energy that an object has due to its movement</u>, mathematically it is represented as follows:

K=\frac{1}{2} mv^2

where m is the mass of the object, and v is its velocity at a given point in time.

So we can see that to find the kinetic energy just before the ball hits the gound, we need the quantities:

  • mass of the ball
  • velocity of the ball before it hits the ground

With the knowledge of these two quantities the kinetic energy of the ball  before touching the gound can be determined.

An inductor is connected in series to a fully charged capacitor. Which of the following statements are true? Check all that appl
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

As the capacitor is discharging, the current is increasing

Explanation:

Lets take

C= Capacitance

L=Inductance

V=Voltage

I= Current

The total energy E given as

E=\dfrac{IL^2}{2}+\dfrac{CV^2}{2}

We know that total energy E is conserved so when electric energy 1/2 CV² decreases then magnetic energy 1/2 IL²  will increases.

It means that when charge on the capacitor decreases then the current will increase.

As the capacitor is discharging, the current is increasing
