Which term is the rate at which work is done? energy power joules force

1 answer:

6 0

Power is joules per second or J/s when work is measured in joules and time in seconds. The basic unit of power, 1 J/s is called a watt (W), named after James Watt who made important improvements to the steam engine. By definition, a watt is the consumption of one joule of energy per second.

True since coulomb's law states that There is electric force between like charges or opposite charges. The negative sign only shows the nature of the force.

<h3>What is the coulombs law ?</h3>

coulombs formula is given by

$F= \dfrac{K\times q_{1} \times q_{2}}{r^{2} }$

Now it states that if two charged particles are separated by the distance r and having same or opposite charge will attract or repel each other.

The intensity of the force depend upon the distance and the nature of the charge.

Hence coulomb's law states that There is electric force between like charges or opposite charges. The negative sign only shows the nature of the force.

<em>Alpha radiation:</em> Particles. Each alpha particle is a little bundle of 2 protons and 2 neutrons ... identical to the nucleus of a Helium atom.

Charge . . . +2 elementary charges

Mass . . . 4 Atomic Mass Units

Relative penetrating power . . . low

The effect an electric field would have on it . . . Since the alpha particle has a positive charge, it's repelled by other positive charges, and attracted toward negative charges.

<em>Beta radiation</em>: Particles. Each beta particle is an electron.

Charge . . . -1 elementary charge

Mass . . . 0.00055 AMU

Relative penetrating power . . . medium

The effect an electric field would have on it . . . repelled by other negative charges, and attracted toward positive charges.

<em>Gamma radiation</em>: electromagnetic wave, verrrrry short wave, high frequency

Charge . . . electromagnetic wave, no charge

Mass . . . electromagnetic wave, no mass

Relative penetrating power . . . high

The effect an electric field would have on it . . . electromagnetic wave, no effect

A 0.111 kg hockey puck moving at 55 m/s is caught by a 80 kg goalie at rest. With what speed does the goalie slide on the (frict

Andrews [41]

Answer: 0.076 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved:

m v = (m + M) V

(0.111 kg) (55 m/s) = (0.111 kg + 80. kg) V

V = 0.076 m/s

After catching the puck, the goalie slides at 0.076 m/s.

Calculate the normal force pushing up from the table in each example 8 kg

garik1379 [7]

The correct answer to the question is: 78.4 N.

EXPLANATION:

As per the question, the mass of the object is given as m = 8 Kg.

We are asked to calculate the normal force of the object.

The object is resting on the table.

Hence, the object pushes the table downward with a force equal to it's weight.

The table, in turn, pushes the object with the same force as given by the object, but in the upward direction.

The force given by the table on the object is known as the normal reaction of the object which acts perpendicular to the surface of the object.

Hence, the normal reaction is equal to the weight of the body.

The weight of a body is the product of it's mass with acceleration due to gravity.

So, the weight of 8 Kg object is calculated as -

Weight = mg

= 8 × 9.8 N.

= 78.4 N.

Here, g is known as acceleration due to gravity.

Hence, the normal force pushing up from the table is 78.4 N.
