Ryan rolls a steel ball horizonyally at 0.8m/s from a top of a lab table that is 0.95 m high.

For part a we can use the kinematic formula distance= velocity(initial)*time+1/2*acceleration*time^2
we know there is only velocity in the horizontal and none in the vertical so v initial in this case is 0, acceleration is gravity =9.81m/s^2
plug in .95=(1/2)*9.81*t^2 solve for t
t=.44seconds
Now for part b we know there is no horizontal acceleration so distance= velcoity* time
we will use horrizontial velocity and the time we just found
distance= .8m/s*.44seconds
=.35 meters

In a simple circuit, if you replace one resistor with a resistor of a higher value will the reading the ammeter increase, decrea

Citrus2011 [14]

The ammeter reading (current) will decrease.
V=IR
I = V/R
so I is inversely proportional to R, i.e. increasing R will cause I to decrease

How<br> are<br> earthquakes measured quantitatively

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:Intensity: The severity of earthquake shaking is assessed using a descriptive scale – the Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale. Magnitude: Earthquake size is a quantitative measure of the size of the earthquake at its source. The Richter Magnitude Scale measures the amount of seismic energy released by an earthquake.

A solid sphere of radius R carries a fixed, uniformly distributed charge q. Obtain an expression for the magnitude of the electr

NISA [10]

Answer:

The electric field outside the sphere will be $\dfrac{qr}{4\pi\epsilon_{0}R^3}$ .

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of solid sphere = R

Charge = q

According to figure,

Suppose r is the distance between the point P and center of sphere.

If $\rho$ be the volume charge density,

Then, the charge will be,

$q=\rho\times\dfrac{4}{3}\pi R^3$ .....(I)

Consider a Gaussian surface of radius r.

We need to calculate the electric field outside the sphere

Using formula of electric field

$\oint{\vec{E}\cdot \vec{dA}}=\dfrac{Q}{\epsilon_{0}}$

$E\times4\pi r^2=\dfrac{\rho\dotc \dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3}{\epsilon_{0}}$

Put the value from equation (I)

$E\times4\pi r^2=\dfrac{qr^3}{\epsilon_{0}R^3}$

$E=\dfrac{qr}{4\pi\epsilon_{0}R^3}$

Hence, The electric field outside the sphere will be $\dfrac{qr}{4\pi\epsilon_{0}R^3}$ .

What is an uncharged body? In physics (simple words)

andriy [413]

An uncharged body is a body that has equal magnitude of positive as well as negative charge on it. So as soon as some charged body is placed near it, the charged body induces negative charges on the uncharged body.
