The temperature of the air above it
<span>We can use Coulomb's law to find the force F acting on the proton that is released.
F = k x Q1 x Q2 / r^2
k = 9 x 10^9
Q1 is the charge on one proton which is 1.6 x 10^{-19} C
Q2 is the same charge on the other proton
r is the distance between the protons
F = (9x10^9) x (1.6 x 10^{-19} C) x (1.6 x 10^{-19} C) / (10^{-3})^2
F = 2.304 x 10^{-22} N
We can use the force to find the acceleration.
F = ma
a = F / m
a = (2.304 x 10^{-22} N) / (1.67 x 10^{-27} kg)
a = 1.38 x 10^5 m/s^2
The initial acceleration of the proton is 1.38 x 10^5 m/s^2</span>
If you have no idea what the voltage is that you're about to measure,
then you should set the meter to the highest range before you connect
it to the two points in the circuit.
Analog meters indicate the measurement by moving a physical needle
across a physical card with physical numbers printed on it. If the unknown
voltage happens to be 100 times the full range to which the meter is set,
then the needle may find itself trying to move to a position that's 100 times
past the highest number on the meter's face. You'll hear a soft 'twang',
followed by a louder 'CLICK'. Then you'll wonder why the meter has no
needle on it, and then you'll walk over to the other side of the room and
pick up the needle off the floor, and then you'll probably put the needle
in your pocket. That will end your voltage measurements for that day,
and certainly for that meter.
Been there.
Done that.
Compression and rarefraction, the other guy's answer it's wrong
Answer:
The air resistance on the skydiver is 68.6 N
Explanation:
When the skydiver is falling down, there are two forces acting on him:
- The force of gravity, of magnitude 
, in the downward direction (where m is the mass of the skydiver and g is the acceleration due to gravity)
- The air resistance, 
, in the upward direction
So the net force on the skydiver is:
where
m = 7.0 kg is the mass
According to Newton's second law of motion, the net force on a body is equal to the product between its mass and its acceleration (a):
In this problem, however, the skydiver is moving with constant velocity, so his acceleration is zero:
Therefore the net force is zero:
And so, we have:
And so we can find the magnitude of the air resistance, which is equal to the force of gravity:
