Answer:

  -3.4 m

Explanation:

The displacement is the difference between the final position and the initial position:

  4.4 m - 7.8 m = -3.4 m

13. For an object to appear transparent, what interaction must occur between light waves and the object they hit?
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

The answer is B

Explanation:

The absorption happens when photons from light hit atoms and molecules, and they vibrate because of that specific interaction. Then the heat ejects from the object in the format of thermal energy.

The electric field must be zero inside a conductor in electrostatic equilibrium, but not inside an insulator. It turns out that
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

The permittivity of rubber is  \epsilon  = 8.703 *10^{-11}

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The  magnitude of the point charge is  q_1 =  70 \ nC  =  70 *10^{-9} \  C

      The diameter of the rubber shell is  d = 32 \ cm  =  0.32 \ m

       The Electric field inside the rubber shell is  E =  2500 \ N/ C

The radius of the rubber is  mathematically evaluated as

              r =  \frac{d}{2} =  \frac{0.32}{2}  =  0.16 \ m

Generally the electric field for a point  is in an insulator(rubber) is mathematically represented as

         E =  \frac{Q}{ \epsilon }  *  \frac{1}{4 *  \pi r^2}

Where \epsilon is the permittivity of rubber

    =>     E  *  \epsilon  *  4 * \pi *  r^2 =  Q

   =>      \epsilon  =  \frac{Q}{E *  4 *  \pi *  r^2}

substituting values

            \epsilon  =  \frac{70 *10^{-9}}{2500 *  4 *  3.142 *  (0.16)^2}

            \epsilon  = 8.703 *10^{-11}

Explain the range of effectiveness of each fundamental force by describing the distance that each force influence nearby matter
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Actually, gravity is the weakest of the four fundamental forces. Ordered from strongest to weakest, the forces are 1) the strong nuclear force, 2) the electromagnetic force, 3) the weak nuclear force, and 4) gravity.

When you throw a ball up in the air, it travels up and then stops instantaneously before falling back down. At the point where i
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

The ball stops instantaneously at the topmost point of the motion.

Explanation:

Assume we have thrown a ball up in the air. For that we have given a force on the ball and it acquires an initial velocity in the upward direction.

The forces that resist the motion of the ball in the upward direction are the force of gravity and air resistance. The ball will instantaneously come to rest when the velocity of the ball reduces to zero.

The two forces acting in the downward direction reduces its speed continuously and it becomes zero at the topmost point.
