Answer:

gravity

Explanation:

Gravity as well as electrostatic and magnetic attraction and repulsion provide real life examples of forces being exerted by one object on another without them being in contact with each other. Many children are aware of magnetism and have played with fridge magnets.

Answer:

Magnetic, electric, and gravitational forces can be exerted, even though the objects involved do not touch each other.

A real heat engine operates between temperatures tc and th. during a certain time, an amount qc of heat is released to the cold
tino4ka555 [31]

q_{c} = Heat released to cold reservoir

q_{h} = Heat released to hot reservoir

W_{max} = maximum amount of work

t_{c} = temperature of cold reservoir

t_{h} = temperature of hot reservoir

we know that

\frac{q_{c}}{q_{h}}=\frac{t_{c}}{t_{h}}

q_{h} = (\frac{t_{h}}{t_{c}})q_{c}                                eq-1

maximum work is given as

W_{max} = q_{h} - q_{c}

using eq-1

W_{max} =  (\frac{t_{h}}{t_{c}})q_{c} - q_{c}

A charge q1 of -5.00 x 10^-9 C and a charge q2 of -2.00x 10^-9 C are separated by a distance of 40.0 cm. Find the equilibrium po
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the equilibrium position of third charge be x distance from q₁.

Force on third charge due to q₁

= 9 x 10⁹ x 5 x 10⁻⁹ x 15 x 10⁺⁹ / x²

Force on third charge due to q₂

= 9 x 10⁹ x 2 x 10⁻⁹ x 15 x 10⁺⁹ /( .40-x)²

Both the force will act in opposite direction and for balancing , they should be equal.

9 x 10⁹ x 5 x 10⁻⁹ x 15 x 10⁺⁹ / x² = 9 x 10⁹ x 2 x 10⁻⁹ x 15 x 10⁺⁹ /( .40-x)²

5  / x² = 2 / ( .4 - x )²

Taking square root on both sides

2.236 / x = 1.414 / .4 - x

2.236 ( .4 - x ) = 1.414 x

.8944 - 2.236 x = 1.414 x

.8944 = 3.65 x

x = .245 m

24.5 cm

So the third charge should be at a distance of 24.5 cm from q₁ .

Whats the difference between speed and velocity of an object
ss7ja [257]
The difference between speed and velocity is that the speed is a scalar quantity which means that you can say that this object has a speed of x m/s but you don't have to define its direction
while the velocity is a vector quantity which means that you have to express the velocity by which it moves in x,y and z directions and its norm is the speed

Two water jets are emerging from a vessel at a height of 50 centimeters and 100 centimeters. If their horizontal velocities at t
givi [52]
For t1:

t1 = square root of 2h1 / g = square root of 2 * 0.5 / 9.8 = 0.319 sec

For t2:

t2 = sqaure root of 2h2 / g = square root of 2 * 1.0 / 9.8 = 0.451 sec

Wherein:
t = time(s) for the vertical movement
h= height
g = gravity (using the standard 9.8 m/sec measurement)

d1 = 1*0.319 = 0.319 m
d2 = 0.5 * 0.451 = 0.225 m

Where:

d = hor. distance

ratio = d1:d2
= 0.319 : 0.225
=3.19 : 2.25

The answer is 3.19 : 2.25
