Controlling the amount of current in a circuit by opposing the flow of charge
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Resistor

Explanation:

Resistor provides resistance to the flow of electric current in a circuit.

It controls the amount of current in a circuit by acting as a barrier to the flow of electric charges

Assume that the stopping distance of a van varies directly with the square of the speed. A van traveling 40 miles per hour can s
Daniel [21]

Answer:

d = 100.8 ft

Explanation:

As we know that initial speed of the van is 40 miles then the stopping distance is given as 70 feet

here we know that

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 ad

so here we have

0^2 - 40^2 = 2 a (70 feet)

now again if the speed is increased to 48 mph then let say the stopping distance is "d"

so we will have

0^2 - 48^2 = 2 a (d)

now divide the above two equations

\frac{40^2}{48^2} = \frac{70 feet}{d}

d = 100.8 ft

A small object of mass 3.82 g and charge -16.5 µC is suspended motionless above the ground when immersed in a uniform electric f
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

2271.16N/C  upward

Explanation:

The diagram well illustrate all the forces acting on the mass. The weight is acting downward and the force is acting upward in other to balance the weight.since the question says it is motionless, then indeed the forces are balanced.

First we determine the downward weight using

W=mg\\g=9.81m/s^{2}

Hence for a mass of 3.82g 0r 0.00382kg we have the weight to be

W=0.00382kg*9.81m/s^{2}

W=0.0375N

To calculate the electric field,

E=f/q\\E=0.0375/16.5*10^{-6} \\E=2271.16N/C

Since the charge on the mass is negative, in order to generate upward force, there must be a like charge below it that is  repelling it, Hebce we can conclude that the electric field lines are upward.

Hence the magnitude of the electric force is 2271.16N/C and the direction is upward
