What best describes desert pavements

Physics

1 answer:

Gekata [30.6K]4 years ago

3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

A common theory suggests that desert pavements are formed through gradual removal of sand and other fine particles by the wind and intermittent rains leaving behind the large fragments. The larger rock particles are shaken into place by actions of different agents such as rain, wind, gravity, and animals

Two particles having charges of 0.440 nC and 11.0 nC are separated by a distance of 1.80 m . 1) At what point along the line con

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

a) 0.3 m

b) r = 0.45 m

Explanation:

given,

q₁ = 0.44 n C and q₂ = 11.0 n C

assume the distance be r from q₁ where the electric field is zero.

distance of point from q₂ be equal to 1.8 -r

now,

E₁ = E₂

$\dfrac{K q_2}{(1.8-r)^2} = \dfrac{K q_1}{r^2}$

$(\dfrac{1.8-r}{r})^2= \dfrac{q_2}{q_1}$

$\dfrac{1.8-r}{r}= \sqrt{\dfrac{11}{0.44}}$

1.8 = 6 r

r = 0.3 m

<h3>b) zero when one charge is negative.</h3>

let us assume q₁ be negative so, distance from q₁ be r

from charge q₂ the distance of the point be 1.8 +r

now,

E₁ = E₂

$\dfrac{K q_2}{(1.8+r)^2} = \dfrac{K q_1}{r^2}$

$(\dfrac{1.8+r}{r})^2= \dfrac{q_2}{q_1}$

$\dfrac{1.8+r}{r}= \sqrt{\dfrac{11}{0.44}}$

1.8 =4 r

r = 0.45 m

What force is described as the attraction between a sample of matter and all other matter in the universe?

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Gravitational Force

Explanation:

Gravitational force also called gravity or gravitation is an attractive force that keeps two objects in space. Gravitational force is an attractive force that tends to pull matters together. Every objects in the universe experience gravitational pull. Planets, stars, galaxies, are held together by gravity. It is a weak force. The weight of an object is the product of gravitational force acting on its mass.

Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation states the force of attraction between two masses m₁ and m₂ in the universe is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of their distance apart.

$F = G\frac{m_{1}m_{2}}{r^2}$

Where;

F is the gravitational force,

G is the gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10¹¹ m³/kg/s,

m1 and m2 are the masses of the objects,

r is the distance between the centers of the masses

How many coulombs of charge do 50 * 10^31 electrons possess

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Quantity of Charge , Q = ne
Where n = number of electrons
e = charge on one electron = -1.6 * 10 ^-19 C.
n = 50 * 10^31 electrons

Q = (50 * 10^31)*( -1.6 * 10 ^-19 ) = -8 * 10^13 C.

Note that the minus sign indicates that the charge is a negative charge.
