A)Watt (W) is a derived unit.

Physics
1 answer:
Aleks04 [339]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

a) Watt is a derived unit because it's not a “base unit.”

b) The atomic clock is suitable for measuring time because natural atomic oscillations happen at a higher frequency and as a result they are more stable.

c) There is fluctuation in time measured by a pendulum clock because the pendulum rod changes in length slightly with changes in temperature, causing changes in the rate of the clock. An increase in temperature causes the rod to expand, making the pendulum longer, so its period increases and the clock loses time.

D) The weight of an object is more at pole and less at equator of the earth because the distance of the pole is less than the distance of the equator from the centre of the earth.

e) The weight of an object on the moon is about one-sixth the weight it would have on the earth because the moon's gravitation force is determined by the mass and the size of the moon. Hence, the weight of an object on the moon is 1/6th its weight on the earth.

Each of two small non-conducting spheres is charged positively, the combined charge being 40 μC. When the two spheres are 50 cm
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

1.44 x 10⁻⁶ C

Explanation:

q_{1} = charge on one sphere

q_{2} = charge on other sphere

q = Total charge on the two spheres = 40 μC

q_{1}+ q_{2} = q

q_{1}+ q_{2} = 40 x 10⁻⁶

q_{1} = (40 x 10⁻⁶) - q_{2}                                   eq-1

r = distance between the two spheres = 50 cm = 0.50 m

F = magnitude of force between the two spheres = 2.0 N

Magnitude of force between the two spheres is given as

F = \frac{k q_{1} q_{2}}{r^{2}}

2.0 = \frac{(9\times 10^{9}) ((40\times 10^{-6}) - q_{2}) q_{2}}{0.50^{2}}

q_{2} = 1.44 x 10⁻⁶ C
