If you were to separate all of the electrons and protons in 1.00 g (0.001 kg) of matter, you’d have about 96,000 C of positive c
Kryger [21]

Answer:

The attractive force between them is 1.296 \times 10^{18} N

Explanation:

Given:

Charge q = 96000 C

Distance between two charges r = 8 m

According to the coulomb's law,

    F = \frac{kq^{2} }{r^{2} }

Where k = 9 \times 10^{9} = force constant.

   F = \frac{9 \times 10^{9} \times (96000)^{2}  }{8^{2} }

   F = 1.296 \times 10^{18} N

Therefore, the attractive force between them is 1.296 \times 10^{18} N

Sally and Ramona were competing in a four-lap, one-mile foot race. Sally’s style was to run at a constant rate of 12 mph. Ramona
svetoff [14.1K]

Sally wins the race by 0.03 min

Explanation:

To find time = distance / velocity

Sally;

1 mile / 12 mph

= ¹/12 hrs * 60

= 5 min

Ramona;

³/4 mile ÷ 11 mph  +  ¹/4 mile ÷ 16 mph

= ³/44 hrs + ¹/64 hrs

= 4.09 min + 0.94 min

= 5.03 min

How much salt (nacl) is carried by a river flowing at 30.0 m3/s and containing 50.0 mg/l of salt? give your answer in kg/day?
slamgirl [31]
Answer: 129,600kg/day
In this question, you are given the river flow (30m3/s) and the salt concentration. Then to determine the amount of salt carried, you simply need to multiply the flow with concentration. Be careful because the unit in this question is different and need to be converted. The equation would be:

Salt = river flow x salt concentration
Salt = 30m3/s x 1000L/m3 x 50mg/L = 1,500,000mg/second

Then convert it into kg/day
Salt= 1,500,000mg/second x 10^-6 kg/mg x (3600 second/hour) x (24 hour/day)= 129,600kg/day
