Complete question is;

Kamal said the distance from the top of the balloon to the ground in the Example image attached is √353 ft. What mistake might Kamal have made?

Answer:

the mistake Kamal made is that she probably used 17 ft as the perpendicular side of the triangle with b as the hypotenuse instead of using 17ft as the hypotenuse

Explanation:

From the image attached, we can see that the distance from the top of the balloon which is blue in color to the ground is denoted by "b".

Now the triangle is a right angle triangle with hypotenuse = 15ft + 2ft = 17 ft; the adjacent side = 8 ft, while the opposite side is "b".

Thus, we can use pythagoras theorem to solve this as;

b = √(17² - 8²)

b = √(289 - 64)

b = √225

b = 15ft

However,we are told Kamal got b as √353 ft.

From inspection of the calculations we just did, if we had used addition instead of subtraction, we would have gotten b = √353 ft.

Thus, we can under that the mistake Kamal made is that she probably used 17 ft as the perpendicular side of the triangle with b as the hypotenuse instead of using 17ft as the hypotenuse.

An object is given a very small amount of charge. Which of the following could
spayn [35]

5.4*10^-19 C

Explanation:

For the purposes of this question, charges essentially come in packages that are the size of an electron (or proton since they have the same magnitude of charge). The charge on an electron is -1.6*10^-19

Therefore, any object should have a charge that is a multiple of the charge of an electron - It would not make sense to have a charge equivalent to 1.5 electrons since you can't exactly split the electron in half. So the charge of any integer number of electrons can be transferred to another object.

Charge = q(electron)*n(#electrons)

Since 5.4/1.6 = 3.375, we know that it can not be the right answer because the answer is not an integer.

If you divide every other option listed by the charge of an electron, you will get an integer number.

(16*10^-19 C)/(1.6*10^-19C) = 10

(-6.4*10^-19 C)/(1.6*10^-19C) = -4

(4.8*10^-19 C)/(1.6*10^-19C) = 3

(5.4*10^-19 C)/(1.6*10^-19C) = 3.375

(3.2*10^-19C)/(1.6*10^-19C) = 2

etc.

I hope this helps!

At a distance r from a charge e on a particle of mass m the electric field value is
mel-nik [20]

At a distance r from a charge e on a particle of mass m the electric field value is  8.9876 × 10⁹ N·m²/C². Divide the magnitude of the charge by the square of the distance of the charge from the point. Multiply the value from step 1 with Coulomb's constant.

<h3>what is magnitude ?</h3>

Magnitude can be defined as the maximum extent of size and the direction of an object.

It is used as a common factor in vector and scalar quantities, as we know scalar quantities are those quantities that have magnitude only and vector quantities are those quantities have both magnitude and direction.

There are different ways where magnitude is used Magnitude of earthquake,  charge on an electron, force, displacement, Magnitude of gravitational force

If the magnitude of the magnetic force on a proton is F when it is moving at 18.0 ∘ with respect to the field, what is the magni
Lelu [443]

Answer:

The force when θ = 33° is 1.7625 times of the force when θ = 18°

Explanation:

The force on a moving charge through a magnetic field is given by

F = qvB sin θ

q = charge of the moving particle

v = Velocity of the moving charge

B = Magnetic field strength

θ = angle between the magnetic field and the velocity (direction of the motion) of the moving charge

Because qvB are all constant, we can call the expression K.

F = K sinθ

when θ = 18°,

F = K sin 18° = 0.309K

when θ = 33°, let the force be F₁

F₁ = K sin 33° = 0.5446K

(F₁/F) = (0.5446K/0.309K) = 1.7625

F₁ = 1.7625 F

Hope this Helps!!!
