The resultant force on the object is

∑ F = 〈0, 8〉 N + 〈6, 0〉 N = 〈6, 8〉 N

which has a magnitude of

F = √((6 N)² + (8 N)²) = √(100 N²) = 10 N

By Newton's second law, the acceleration has magnitude a such that

F = m a

10 N = (2 kg) a

a = (10 N) / (2 kg)

a = 5 m/s²

so the answer is B.

If the charge remains the same but the radius of the sphere is doubled, the electric flux coming out of it will be

il63 [147K]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply Gauss's theorem for electric flux to solve the problem . According to this theorem , total electric flux coming out of a charge q can be given by the following relation .

∫ E ds = q / ε

Here q is assumed to be enclosed in a closed surface , E is electric intensity on the surface so

∫ E ds represents total electric flux passing through the closed surface due to charge q enclosed in the surface .

This also represents total flux coming out of the charge q on all sides .

This is equal to q / ε where ε is a constant called permittivity which depends upon the medium enclosing the charge . For air , its value is 8.85 x 10⁻¹² .

If charge remains the same but radius of the sphere enclosing the charge is doubled , the flux coming out of charge will remain the same .

It is so because flux coming out of charge q is q / ε . It does not depend upon surface area enclosing the charge . It depends upon two factors

1 ) charge q and

2 ) the permittivity of medium ε around .

How fast would you have to travel on the surface of earth at the equator to keep up with the sun (that is, so that the sun would

professor190 [17]

Answer: 1037 miles per hour

Explanation: In order to see the sun in the same position in the sky, you would have to travel against the speed of rotation of the earth, because this is what causes the sun to appear in a constantly changing position.

Because of this, we will have to calculate the speed of rotation of the earth. To get started, we must know the circumference of the earth. Assuming the circumference formula for a sphere,

$Circumference=2\pi R$

Where R is the radius of the earth, we find that the perimeter of the earth is approximately 24881 miles. The equation to calculate speed is given by

$v=\frac{Distance}{Time}$

Because the earth completes one rotation in 24 hours, we have to find the speed of rotation as the perimeter of the earth divided by 24 hours.

The obtained result is 1037 miles per hour.

You would have to travel at 1037 miles per hour in the direction opposite to the direction the rotation is ocurring in.
