There are two identical small metal spheres with charges 38.9 µC and −27.6399 µC. Thedistance between them is 6 cm. The spheres

are placed in contact then set at their original distance. Calculate the magnitude of the force between the two spheres at the final position. The value of the Coulomb constant is 8.98755 × 109 N · m2 /C 2 . Answer in units of N.

Answer:

2683.3N

Explanation:

According to coulombs law which states that "the force of attraction existing between two charge q1 and q2 is directly proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance (d) between them. Mathematically |F|= k|q1| |q2| /d² where;

F is the force of attraction between the charges

q1 and q2 are the charges

d is the distance between them

k is the coulombs constant

Given |q1|= 38.9 × 10^-6C and |q2| = 27.6399×10^-6C d = 6cm = 0.06m

k = 8.98755 × 109 Nm² /C²

Substituting the given data's in the equation we have;

|F| = 8.98755 × 10^9×38.9×10^-6×27.6399×10^-6/0.06²

|F| = 9.66/0.06²

|F| = 9.66/0.0036

|F| = 2683.3N

The magnitude of the force will be 2683.3N

Note that the modulus of the charges changes negative value of q2 to positive value. The opposite signs of the charges doesn't affect the final calculation, it only tells the force of attraction or repulsion between the charges. Since they are unlike charges, they will attract each other in the field.

Determine the projection (magnitude and sign), or component, of vector v1 along the direction of vector v2. Your answer could be
professor190 [17]

Answer:

- 1.07 ft

Explanation:

V1 = (-5, 7, 2)

V2 = (3, 1, 2)

Projection of v1 along v2, we use the following formula

=\frac{\overrightarrow{V1}.\overrightarrow{V2}}{V2}

So, the dot product of V1 and V2 is = - 5 (3) + 7 (1) + 2 (2) = -15 + 7 + 4 = -4

The magnitude of vector V2 is given by

= \sqrt{3^{2}+1^{2}+2^{2}}=3.74

So, the projection of V1 along V2 = - 4 / 3.74 = - 1.07 ft

Thus, the projection of V1 along V2 is - 1.07 ft.

so we need to find the direction of v2

If a stone is dropped from a height of 400 feet, its height after t seconds is given by s = 400 − 16t2. Find its instantaneous v
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

v = -32 t

Explanation:

given,

s = 400- 16 t²

we know,

Velocity of an object is defined as the change in displacement per unit change in time.

velocity an also be return as

v = \dfrac{ds}{dt}

v = \dfrac{d}{dt}(400-16t^2)

v= 0 -2\times 16 t

v = -32 t

Hence, instantaneous velocity function given by v = -32 t

To calculate instantaneous velocity, you need to insert value of time.

ex, instantaneous velocity at t = 4 s

       v = -32 x 4 = -128 m/s.

A springboard diver intending to do a somersault brings her knees and arms closer to her body during the dive. What effect does
Hoochie [10]

During the diving when a diver jumps off from platform he brings her knees and arms closer to the body

This is because when diver is in air he don't have any torque about his center of mass which shows that angular momentum of his body will remain constant during his motion in air

Now we can say product of his moment of inertia and his angular speed will remain constant always

So here if we decrease the moment of inertia of the body during our motion then angular speed will increase so that product will remain constant

and this is what the diver use during his diving

so correct answer will be

<u><em>It decreases her moment of inertia.</em></u>
