Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

This involves the conservation of momentum:

m1v1 = m2v2

Now initially neither the rock nor Bob is moving. Then the rock moves forward with a velocity of 5 m/s, having a mass of 20 kg. But Bob moves back by the conservation of momentum, so at what velocity?

0 = 20(5) + 100(vf),

-100 = 100vf,

vf = - 1m/s

Answer:

E_total = 1.30 10¹⁰ C / m²

Explanation:

The intensity of the electric field is

     E = k q / r²

on a positive charge proof

The total electric field at the midpoint is

as q₁= 6 10⁻⁶ C the field is outgoing to the right

for charge q₂ = -3 10⁻⁶ C, the field is directed to the right, therefore

E_total = E₁ + E₂

E_total = k q₁ / r₁² + k q₂ / r₂²

r₁ = r₂ = r = 4 10⁻² m

E_total = k/r² (q₁ + q₂)

 we calculate

E_total = 9 10⁹ / (4 10⁻²)²   (6.0 10⁻⁶ +3.0 10⁻⁶)

E_total = 1.30 10¹⁰ C / m²

How does the speed of an object relate to the energy of the object
Ann [662]

Answer:

Increasing the speed of an object decreases its motion energy. Increasing the speed of an object increases its motion energy. Increasing the speed of an object does not affect its motion energy. Whether or not its motion energy is affected depends on how much its speed was increased.

Our solar system formed about 4.5 billion years ago from a dense cloud of interstellar gas and dust. The cloud collapsed, possibly due to the shockwave of a nearby exploding star, called a supernova. When this dust cloud collapsed, it formed a solar nebula—a spinning, swirling disk of material
