Answer:

Force = 2802.8 Newton

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 130 lbs

But, 2.2 lbs = 1.0 kg

130 lbs to kg = 130 * 2.2 = 286 kg

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

To find the force in Newton;

Force = mass * acceleration due to gravity

Force = 286 * 9.8

Force = 2802.8 Newton

If two charged objects each have 2.5 C of charge on them and are located 100 m apart, how strong is the electrostatic force betw

LiRa [457]

Answer:

5.619×10⁶ N

Explanation:

Applying,

F = kqq'/r²................... Equation 1

Where F = electrostatic force between the charges, k = coulomb's constant, q = first charge, q' = second charge, r = distance btween the charges

From the questiion,

Given: q = 2.5 C, q' = 2.5 C, r = 100 m

Constant: 8.99×10⁹ Nm²/C²

Substitute these values into equation 1

F = (2.5×2.5×8.99×10⁹)/100²

F = 56.19×10⁵

F = 5.619×10⁶ N

6. A golf ball is hit a distance of 300 yards in 10 sec. What is the speed of the golf ballo

katen-ka-za [31]

The speed of the ball is 27.4 m/s

Explanation:

The speed of an object is given by:

$speed=\frac{d}{t}$

where

d is the distance covered

t is the time taken

In this problem, we have:

d = 300 yards is the distance covered by the golf ball

t = 10 s is the time taken

Keeping in mind that

1 yard = 0.914 m

We can convert the distance from yards to meters:

$d = 300 \cdot 0.914 = 274.2 m$

And substituting into the equation, we find the speed of the ball:

$speed=\frac{274.2}{10}=27.4 m/s$
