A small glass bead has been charged to + 30.0 nC . A small metal ball bearing 2.60 cm above the bead feels a 1.80×10−2 N downwar
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

The charge on the ball bearing 4.507 × 10^-8 C

Explanation:

From Coulomb's law

F = kq1q2/r²

make q2 the subject

q2 = Fr²/kq1

q2 = (1.8×10^-2 × 0.026²) ÷ (9×10^9 × 30×10^-9)

q2 = 4.507 × 10^-8 C

4. Two forces act on a 2 kg object as shown. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the object?
aleksandrvk [35]

The resultant force on the object is

∑ <em>F</em> = 〈0, 8〉 N + 〈6, 0〉 N = 〈6, 8〉 N

which has a magnitude of

<em>F</em> = √((6 N)² + (8 N)²) = √(100 N²) = 10 N

By Newton's second law, the acceleration has magnitude <em>a</em> such that

<em>F</em> = <em>m a</em>

10 N = (2 kg) <em>a</em>

<em>a</em> = (10 N) / (2 kg)

<em>a</em> = 5 m/s²

so the answer is B.

State the law of conservation of momentum<br>​
trapecia [35]

Answer:

Law of conservation of momentum states that. For two or more bodies in an isolated system acting upon each other, their total momentum remains constant unless an external force is applied. Therefore, momentum can neither be created nor destroyed.

A wheel accelerates from rest to 34.7 rad/s at a rate of 47.0 rad/s^2. Through what angle (in radians) did the wheel turn while
dem82 [27]

12.8 rad

Explanation:

The angular displacement \theta through which the wheel turned can be determined from the equation below:

\omega^2 = \omega_0^2 + 2\alpha\theta (1)

where

\omega_0 = 0

\omega = 34.7\:\text{rad/s}

\alpha = 47.0\:\text{rad/s}^2

Using these values, we can solve for \theta from Eqn(1) as follows:

2\alpha\theta = \omega^2 - \omega_0^2

or

\theta = \dfrac{\omega^2 - \omega_0^2}{2\alpha}

\:\:\:\:= \dfrac{(34.7\:\text{rad/s})^2 - 0}{2(47.0\:\text{rad/s}^2)}

\:\:\:\:= 12.8\:\text{rad}
