Answer:

c. Joints allow the roadway to expand and contract as cars put force on the bridge

Explanation:

Joints in the roadways of bridges allows for the roadway to expand and contract as cars put force on the bridge.

The force on the bridge and the ambient temperature causes expansion of the materials used in making the bridge.

  • Joints allows and accommodate the expansion.
  • As the force is removed and temperature reduces, the road also contracts.

Answer:

Positive

Explanation:

The leaves will diverge further: The positive charge on the leaves has increased further. This occurs when positive charge is produced on the leaves by the charged object. This is quite possible only when the object is positively charged.

pentagon [3]

Answer:

(a) F = -4.01 * 10^{-15} N

(b) a = 4.40 * 10^{15} m/s^2

Explanation:

Parameter given:

Electric field, E = 2.5 * 10^4 N/C

(a) Electric force is given (in terms of electric field) as a product of electric charge and electric field.

Mathematically:

F = qE

Electric charge, q, of an electron = - 1.602 * 10^{-19} C

F = -1.602 * 10^{-19} * 2.5 * 10^4\\\\\\F = -4.01 * 10^{-15} N

(b) This electrostatic force causes the electron to accelerate with an equivalent force:

F = -ma

where m = mass of an electron

a = acceleration of electron

(Note: the force is negative cos the direction of the force is opposite the direction of the electron)

Therefore:

-ma =  -4.01 * 10^{-15} N\\\\\\a = \frac{-4.01 * 10^{-15}}{-m}

Mass, m, of an electron = 9.11 * 10^{-31} kg

=> a = \frac{-4.01 * 10^{-15}}{-9.11 * 10^{-31}}\\\\\\a = 4.40 * 10^{15} m/s^2

The acceleration of the electron is 4.40 * 10^{15} m/s^2
