Answer:

31.3mph North

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance traveled  = 1500miles

Time taken  = 48hrs

Unknown:

Velocity of the group of explorers = ?

Solution:

Velocity is the displacement divided by the time taken. It is a vector quantity with both magnitude and direction.

 So;

       Velocity = \frac{displacement}{time}

Displacement is the distance moved in a specific direction = 1500miles North

 Insert the parameters and solve;

   Velocity = \frac{1500}{48}   = 31.3mph North

A uniform electric field exists in the region between two oppositely charged plane parallel plates. a proton is released from re
dedylja [7]

According to Newton's second law

E.e = a * mp  ..... (1)

where

E is the magnitude of the electric field; e = 1.6 * 10^-19 is the elementary charge; mp = 1.67*10^-27 kg is the proton mass; a is the acceleration.

So, the distance

l = at^2/2 .......(2)

The proton accelerated

a = 2l / t^2 ...........(3)

From equations (1) and (3)

E= 32.51 V/m

Electric field

The physical field that surrounds electrically charged particles and exerts a force on all other charged particles in the field, either attracting or repelling them, is known as an electric field (also known as an E-field).  It can also refer to a system of charged particles' physical field. Electric charges and time-varying electric currents are the building blocks of electric fields. The electromagnetic field, one of the four fundamental interactions (also known as forces) of nature, manifests itself in both electric and magnetic fields.

You are at the edge of a diving board that is 9 meters above the water. If you weigh 500 Newtons, what is your potential energy?
Semenov [28]

Answer:

4500 J

Explanation:

First, let's define some equations and derivations.

Our potential energy formula is:

  • \displaystyle U = mgh

Where <em>m </em>is mass (in kg), <em>g</em> is the gravitational constant (in m/s²), and <em>h</em> is height (in m).

We also know that <em>mg</em> is equal to the weight of an object (in N), from Newton's 2nd Law of Motion: F = ma (Force is equal to [constant] mass times acceleration).

Therefore, we can simply substitute force into the equation:

  • \displaystyle U = Fh

Where <em>F</em> is the force (in N) and <em>h</em> is still height (in m).

Now we can calculate the amount of potential energy in our system, measured in joules.

Substitute in the given variables, F = 500 N and h = 9 m:

  • \displaystyle U = (500 \ N)(9 \ m)

Using simple Pre-Algebra rules, we find that:

  • \displaystyle U = 4500 \ J

This tells us that the we have 4500 joules of potential energy when I am 9 meters above the water on the edge of the diving board.
