ziro4ka [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The 80 mph car

Because the formula says 1/2 mass but for the velocity it is squared

State clearly how the pith ball electroscope may be used to test for the kind of charge on a body
PilotLPTM [1.2K]
An object with a known charge is first brought close to the ball so as to induce the opposite charge. Lets say we brought a positive object, so the ball will be negatively charged. Afterwards, the object with the unknown charge is brought closer. If the ball is attracted, then the object is positively charged and if it is repelled then the object is negatively charged.

Can someone please explain number 8?
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer: Ax=(Vx-Vox)/(T)

Vx=Vox+Ax*T

Solving for Ax in terms of Vx, Vox, T

Vx-Vox=Ax*t

Ax=(Vx-Vox)/(T)

This is saying the acceleration in the x-direction can be found by taking the difference between the finial and initial Velocity in x-direction and dividing it by the Total Time.

Any questions please feel free to ask. Thanks

A football wide receiver rushes 16 m straight down the playing field in 2.9 s (in the positive direction). He is then hit and pu
Bumek [7]

Answer:

a) v1 = 5.52m/s

b) v2 = -1.52m/s

c) v3 = 4.62m/s

d) vt = 3.85m/s

Explanation:

The velocity of the football wide receiver is his displacement per unit time.

Velocity v = (displacement d)/time t

v = d/t .....1

For each of the cases, equation 1 would be used to calculate the velocity.

a) v1 = d1/t1

d1= 16m

t1 = 2.9s

v1 = 16m/2.9s

v1 = 5.52m/s

b) v2 = d2/t2

d2 = -2.5m

t2 = 1.65s

v2 = -2.5/1.65

v2 = -1.52m/s

c) v3 = d3/t3

d3 = 24m

t3 = 5.2s

v3 = 24/5.2

v3 = 4.62m/s

d) vt = dt/tt

dt = 16m - 2.5m + 24m = 37.5m

tt = 2.9 + 1.65 + 5.2 = 9.75s

vt = 37.5/9.75

vt = 3.85m/s
