Ek=kinetic energy  (J)
m=mass of object (Kg)
v=speed of object  (m/s)

We have the following formula:

Ek=(1/2)mv²   ⇒ m=2(Ek)/v²

In this case:
m= mass of the child + mass of the bike
m=30 kg + m₁       (m₁=mass of the bike).

We would have to modify our formula like this:

m=2(Ek)/v²
m=30 kg + m₁


30 kg +m₁=2(Ek)/v²
m₁=2(Ek)/v²-30 kg

We have the following data:

v=0.6 m/s
Ek=12.4J
m=30 Kg + m₁

Therefore:

m₁=2(Ek)/v²  - 30 kg
m₁=2(12.4 J)/(0.6 m/s)²  - 30 kg
m₁=24.8 J/(0.36 m²/s²)  -30 kg
m₁=68.89 Kg - 30 kg
m₁=38.89 Kg

Answer: the mass of the bike is 38.89 Kg.

"Which of the following statements about electrons is not true?
gogolik [260]

Answer:

B) Within an atom, an electron can have only particular energies.

Explanation:

As we know that electrons have energy but apart from electrons we know that protons and neutrons inside the nucleus of atom will also have energy in them.

rest all the statements are true as we have

A) Electrons orbit the nucleus rather like planets orbiting the Sun.

TRUE, because electrons can move in stationary orbit around the nucleus

C) Electrons can jump between energy levels in an atom only if they receive or give up an amount of energy equal to the difference in energy between the energy levels.

Difference amount of energy is lost or absorbed by the electron in form of photons

D) An electron has a negative electrical charge.

Charge of an electron is given as -1.6 \times 10^{-19} C

E) Electrons have very little mass compared to protons or neutrons

Mass of an electron is given as

m_e = 9.11 \times 10^{-31} kg

mass of proton or neutron

m_p = 1.67 \times 10^{-27} kg

Which space mission visited the moon several times?.
Ivanshal [37]
NASA’s Apollo Mission was the ONLY mission which landed humans on the moon, which it did six times. I’m not very sure about several times, though. Hope this helped!

Two charged spheres are 20cm apart and exert an attractive force of 6x10^-9 N on each other. What will be the force of attractio
Travka [436]
The force of attraction between 2 charged spheres can be explained by Coulomb's law,
It states the force of attraction is directly proportional to the magnitudes of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the charges.

/F =  \frac{k q_{1}  q_{2} }{ r^{2} }
where F - force of attraction/repulsion
q₁ and q₂ - charges of the 2 spheres 
k - Coulomb's law constant
r - distance between the spheres

In the question given, the charges of the spheres remain constant in both instances, only distance changes. Therefore (kq₁q₂) = c which is a constant 
then F = c / r²
first instance 
6 x 10⁻⁹ N = c/ (20 cm)² ---1)
F = c/(10 cm)² --- 2)
2) / 1)
\frac{F}{6* 10^{-9} } =  \frac{400}{100}
F = 6 x 10⁻⁹ x 4
F = 2.4 x 10⁻⁸ N

A proton has a mass of 1.672 X 10-27 kg. What is its weight?
Ivenika [448]

Protons are usually regarded by their mass, as mass is not specific to any gravitational acceleration.  However, if you wished to find the weight of a proton on Earth, it would be:

Force (weight) = mass of proton * acceleration due to Earth's gravity

F = ma

F = (1.62 x 10^-27)(-9.8)

F = 1.5876 * 10^-26N
