Answer:

Newton's First Law of motion states that an object will continue to move in a straight line or remain at rest unless a force acts on it

The stone is able to move in circular motion because a (centripetal) force acts through the string on it, which maintains the circular motion, by turning the stone to the circular path as the stone moves with momentary velocity along a straight line which is (therefore) tangential to the circle

Therefore, at the point the spring breaks, the centripetal force is no longer acting on the stone to change its path and the motion of the continues on the tangent to the initial circular motion path at that point

Stells [14]

Answer:

5.1*10^3 J/m^3

Explanation:

Using E = q/A*eo

And

q =75*10^-6 C

A = 0.25

eo = 8.85*10^-12

Energy density = 1/2*eo*(E^2) = 1/2*eo*(q/A*eo)^2 = [q^2] / [2*(A^2)*eo]

= [(75*10^-6)^2] / [2*(0.25)^2*8.85*10^-12]

= 5.1*10^3 J/m^3

physics A river flows at a speed vr = 5.37 km/hr with respect to the shoreline. A boat needs to go perpendicular to the shorelin

vova2212 [387]

Answer: Vb is the vector (-5.37m/s, 8.59 m/s), with a module 10.13m/s

then the ratio Vb/Vr = 10.13m/s/5.37m/s = 1.9

Explanation:

We can use the notation (x, y) where the river flows in the x-axis and the pier is on the y-axis.

We have Vr = (5.37m/s, 0m/s)

Now, if the boat wants to move only along the y-axis (perpendicularly to the shore).

The velocity of the boat Vb will be:

Vb = (-c*sin(32). c*cos(32))

Then we should have that:

5.37 m/s - c*sin(32) = 0

c = (5.37/sin(32))m/s = 10.13 m/s

the velocity in the y-axis is:

10.13m/s*cos(32) = 8.59 m/s

So Vb = (-5.37m/s, 8.59 m/s)

the ratio Vb/Vr = 10.13m/s/5.37m/s = 1.9 where i used Vb as the module of the boat's velocity.

Which is not one of the forms that energy can take?

sladkih [1.3K]

Question 1: Newtonian. It refers to work of Newton. Light, electrical and chemical energies are different forms of energy.
Question 2: Nuclear power plants. Heat , Sunlight and energy in atoms are not nuclear energies.
Question 3: Batteries. the other two are examples of mechanical energy. But batteries are examples for chemical energy.

Tom [10]

Answer:

Radio waves have longer wavelength

Explanation:

Radio wave is an electromagnetic frequency that has the ability to travel through long distance. They have frequencies shuttling been the range of 10^4 hz and a frequency of 10^12 hz

Light wave is also called visible light. This is because it is visible to the naked eye, despite it being in the electromagnetic spectrum. It's frequency is usually between 4*10^-7 hz and a frequency of 7*10^-7 hz.

As can be seen from both, the radio waves length are quite far stronger than that of the light waves.
