NNADVOKAT [17]3 years ago

5 0

Answer:

Option D

130 m

Explanation:

From the concept of speed, distance=speed*time

When traveling East, displacement=10*10=100 m (since he takes 10 seconds while traveling at a speed of 10 m/s)

When traveling West, displacement=5*6=30 m (since John takes 6 seconds to travel at a speed of 5 m/s)

Total displacement=Displacement East+ Displacement West=100+30=130 m

if an object is moving at a constant speed in a changing direction, What is the acceleration of the object (zero or not zero)

Andreas93 [3]

We know, acceleration is the change of velocity by time.
Velocity is the speed of an object which also indicates the direction.
Hence, acceleration is both dependant upon the speed as well as the direction.
So, if an object is moving at a constant speed in a changing direction, the acceleration will also change. It will not be zero.
An example is that of uniform circular motion.

Answer:

if an object is moving at a constant speed in a changing direction, the acceleration of the object will not be zero.

An astronaut has a momentum of 280 kg and travels 10 m/s. what is the mass of the astronaut?

Kamila [148]

Answer:

The answer is

Explanation:

The mass of an object given it's momentum and velocity / speed can be found by using the formula

$m = \frac{p}{v} \\$

where

m is the mass

p is the momentum

v is the speed or velocity

From the question

p = 280 kg/ms

v = 10 m/s

The mass of the object is

$m = \frac{280}{10} = 28 \\$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

Two identical charges,2.0m apart,exert forces of magnitude 4.0 N on each other.What is the value of either charge?

storchak [24]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{42\, \mu \text{C}}$$

Explanation:

The formula for the force exerted between two charges is

$F=k \dfrac{ q_1q_2}{r^2}$

where k is the Coulomb constant.

The charges are identical, so we can write the formula as

$F=k\dfrac{q^{2}}{r^2}$

$\begin{array}{rcl}\text{4.0 N}& = & 8.988 \times 10^{9}\text{ N$\cdot$m$^{2}$C$^{-2}$} \times \dfrac{q^{2}}{\text{(2.0 m)}^{2}}\\\\4.0 & = & 2.25 \times 10^{9}\text{ C$^{-2}$} \times q^{2}\\\\q^{2} & = & \dfrac{4.0}{2.25 \times 10^{9}\text{ C$^{-2}$}}\\\\& = & 1.78 \times 10^{-9} \text{ C}^{2}\\q & = & 4.2 \times 10^{-5} \text{ C}\\& = & 42\, \mu \text{C}\\\end{array}\\\text{Each charge has a value of $\large \boxed{\mathbf{42\, \mu }\textbf{C}}$}$
