7 0

Answer:

Magnitude is 144N .

Explanation:

a²+b²=c²

120N²+80N²=c²

14400+6400=c²

\sqrt{20800}   =  \sqrt{c} ^{2}

144N=c

viktelen [127]

Answer:

The hydrogen peroxide decomposes as: H_2O_2\rightarrow 2H_2O+O_2

Explanation:

Hydrogen peroxide antiseptic although tightly capped but left on the shelf for a long time leads to swollen bottle and opens with a hissing sound because hydrogen peroxide reacts with air in presence of light to dissociate into water and oxygen molecules that leads to high volume of content in the tightly closed bottle and formation of water molecules from hydrogen peroxide.

Once the hydrogen peroxide has turned into water molecules it is no longer effective as an antiseptic.

How many laws of Newton and who​
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

The three laws of motion were first compiled by Isaac Newton in his Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica (Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy), first published in 1687. Newton used them to explain and investigate the motion of many physical objects and systems

What can cause electricity to jump across a gap
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

It often happens in a circuit which was conducting,and a switch is opened. Any inductance in the circuit will help the voltage increase due to back emf,and this can cause breakdown of the air insulation and an arc can form.

Two identical conducting spheres, A and B, carry equal charge. They are separated by a distance much larger than their diameters
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

C. \frac{3F}{8}

Explanation:

Let initial charges on both spheres be,q

F=\frac{Kq^2}{d^2}   \ \ \  \ \ \  \ \ \  \ \_i

When the sphere C is touched by A, the final charges on both will be,\frac{q}{2}

#Now, when C is touched by B, the final charges on both of them will be:

q_c=q_d=\frac{q/2+q}{2}\\\\=\frac{3q}{4}\\

Now the force between A and B is calculated as:

F\prime=\frac{k\times\frac{q}{2}\times \frac{3q}{4}}{d^2}\\F\prime=\frac{3F}{8}

Hence the electrostatic force becomes 3F/8

1. Define friction. Name and describe two kinds of friction.
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

Friction is a force that holds back the movement of a sliding object.

Explanation:

The two types of friction: Static friction and Kinetic friction.  Static friction operates between two surfaces that aren't moving relative to each other, while kinetic friction acts between objects in motion.
