Answer:

force = mass * acceleration

therefore the SI unit is kg*m/s2 or newton's

it's a vector quantity because it has both direction(acceleration) and size (mass)

When two point charges are a distance dd part, the electric force that each one feels from the other has magnitude F.F . In orde

Harman [31]

Answer:

In order to make this force twice as strong, F' = 2 F, the distance would have to be changed to half i.e. r' = r/2.

Explanation :

The electric force between two point charges is directly proportional to the product of charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between charges. It is given by :

$F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}$

r is the separation between charges

$F\propto \dfrac{1}{r^2}$

$r=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{F}}$

If F'= 2F

$r'=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2F} }$

In order to make this force twice as strong, F' = 2 F, the distance would have to be changed to half i.e. $r'=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2F} }$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

The lowest possible temperature in outer space is 3.13 K. What is the rms speed of hydrogen molecules at this temperature? (The

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

$v_{rms} =196.59 m/s$

Given:

Temperature, T = 3.13 K

molar mass of molecular hydrogen, m = 2.02 g/mol = $2.02\times 10^{-3}kg/mol$

Solution:

To calculate the root mean squarer or rms speed of hydrogen molecule, we use the given formula:

$v_{rms} = \sqrt{\frac{3TR}{m}}$

where

R = rydberg's constant = 8.314 J/mol-K

Putting the values in the above formula:

$v_{rms} = \sqrt{\frac{3\times 3.13\times 8.314}{2.02\times 10^{-3}}}$

$v_{rms} =196.59 m/s$

The magnitude of the electrostatic force between two identical ions that are separated by a distance of 5.0A is 3.7×10^-9N.a) wh

jeyben [28]

Explanation:

Given that,

Electrostatic force, $F=3.7\times 10^{-9}\ N$

Distance, $r=5\ A=5\times 10^{-10}\ m$

(a) $F=\dfrac{kq^2}{r^2}$ , q is the charge on the ion

$q=\sqrt{\dfrac{Fr^2}{k}}$

$q=\sqrt{\dfrac{3.7\times 10^{-9}\times (5\times 10^{-10})^2}{9\times 10^9}}$

$q=3.2\times 10^{-19}\ C$

(b) Let n is the number of electrons are missing from each ion. It can be calculated as :

$n=\dfrac{q}{e}$

$n=\dfrac{3.2\times 10^{-19}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}$

n = 2

Hence, this is the required solution.

Here on Earth you hang a mass from a vertical spring and start it oscillating with amplitude 1.9 cm. You observe that it takes 3

Vlada [557]

Answer:

T = 3.23 s

Explanation:

In the simple harmonic movement of a spring with a mass the angular velocity is given by

w = √ K / m

With the initial data let's look for the ratio k / m

The angular velocity is related to the frequency and period

w = 2π f = 2π / T

2π / T = √ k / m

k₀ / m₀ = (2π / T)²

k₀ / m₀ = (2π / 3.0)²

k₀ / m₀ = 4.3865

The period on the new planet is

2π / T = √ k / m

T = 2π √ m / k

In this case the amounts are

m = 6 m₀

k = 10 k₀

We replace

T = 2π√6m₀ / 10k₀

T = 2π √6/10 √m₀ / k₀

T = 2π √ 0.6 √1 / 4.3865

T = 3.23 s

Can some one please help me with 7 and 8 I can’t fail this I’ll mark brainless .

Musya8 [376]

I think the first question is talking about the ionic compound Sodium sulfide and it’s formula is Na2S.
And for the second question, i’m pretty sure it’d be a positive charge
