- Speed is the rate of change of distance with time while velocity is the rate of change of displacement with time.
- Speed is a scalar quantity while velocity is a vector quantity.
- Speed cannot be negative but velocity can be negative.
Hope you could get an idea from here.
Doubt clarification - use comment section.
Answer:
If a man starts running on a boat with an acceleration a with respect to the boat, there is no external force that acts on the Boat+Man system
Answer:
(a) Negative Q
(b) Positive Q
Explanation:
Charge is the inherent property of matter due to the transference of electrons.
There are three methods of charging a body.
(i) Charging by friction: When two uncharged bodies rubbed together, then one body gets positive charged and the other is negatively charges it is due to the transference of electrons form one body to another.
(ii) Conduction: when a charged body comes in contact with the another uncharged body, the uncharged body gets the same charge and the charge is distributed equally.
(iii) Induction: When a uncharged body keep near the charged body, the uncharged body gets the same amount of charge but opposite in sign.
(a) When a small tack of charge Q is lowered into the hole, then due to the process of induction, the charge on the inner surface of the shell is - Q.
(b) Due to the process of conduction, the charge on the outer surface of the shell is Q.
Answer:
-6112.26 J
Explanation:
The initial kinetic energy,
is given by
} where m is the mass of a body and
is the initial velocity
The final kinetic energy,
is given by
where
is the final velocity
Change in kinetic energy,
is given by

Since the skater finally comes to rest, the final velocity is zero. Substituting 0 for
and 12.6 m/s for
and 77 Kg for m we obtain

From work energy theorem, work done by a force is equal to the change in kinetic energy hence for this case work done equals <u>-6112.26 J</u>
