If you do this on Earth, then the acceleration of the falling object is 9.8 m/s^2 ... NO MATTER what it's mass is.

If its mass is 10 kg, then the force pulling it down is 98.1 Newtons. Most people call that the object's "weight".

Near the surface of Earth an electric field points radially downward and has a magnitude of approximately 100 N/C. What charge (

pentagon [3]

Answer:

$q=2.997\times 10^{-4}$ C

Sign-Negative

Explanation:

We are given that

Electric field = $E=100NC^{-1}$ (Radially downward)

Acceleration= $0.19 ms^{-2}$ (Upward)

Mass of charge=3 g= $3\times 10^{-3}$ kg

1kg=1000g

We have to find the magnitude and sign of charge would have to be placed on a penny .

By newton's second law

$\sum F_y=ma$

$\sum F_y=qE-mg$

Substitute the values then we get

$qE-mg=ma$

Substitute the values then we get

$q(100)-3\times 10^{-3}(9.8)=3\times 10^{-3}(0.19)$

$100q-29.4\times 10^{-3}=0.57\times 10^{-3}$

$100q=0.57\times 10^{-3}+29.4\times 10^{-3}=29.97\times 10^{-3}$

$q=\frac{29.97\times 10^{-3}}{100}$

$q=2.997\times 10^{-4}$ C

Sign of charge =Negative

Because electric force acting in opposite direction of electric field therefore,charge on penny will be negative.

How would it be possible for an object to be traveling with a constant speed and still accelerating?

lys-0071 [83]

Yeah!! It's possible for an object by changing it's direction....

A very long string (linear density 0.7 kg/m ) is stretched with a tension of 70 N . One end of the string oscillates up and down

rewona [7]

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Wavelength, The relationship between speed, voltage and linear density as well as frequency. By definition the speed as a function of the tension and the linear density is given by

$V = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\rho}}$

Where,

T = Tension

$\rho =$ Linear density

Our data are given by

Tension , T = 70 N

Linear density , $\rho = 0.7 kg/m$

Amplitude , A = 7 cm = 0.07 m

Period , t = 0.35 s

Replacing our values,

$V = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\rho}}$

$V = \sqrt{\frac{70}{0.7}$

$V = 10m/s$

Speed can also be expressed as

$V = \lambda f$

Re-arrange to find \lambda

$\lambda = \frac{V}{f}$

Where,

f = Frequency,

Which is also described in function of the Period as,

$f = \frac{1}{T}$

$f = \frac{1}{0.35}$

$f = 2.86 Hz$

Therefore replacing to find $\lambda$

$\lambda = \frac{10}{2.86}$

$\lambda = 3.49m$

Therefore the wavelength of the waves created in the string is 3.49m

The resistance of resistor is greater for:

Monica [59]

Answer:

c: long and thin resistor.

Explanation:

The resistance of a resistor is given by:

R = ρ*L/A

where:

R = resistance

ρ = resistivity (depends on the material)

L = length of the material

A = cross-sectional area of the material

We can see that the length is on the numerator, which means that if we increase the length, then the resistance is increased.

We also can see that the cross-sectional area is on the denominator, then if we increase the area (for example, with a ticker resistor) the resistance decreases.

Then if we want to maximize the resistance, we need to have a long and thin resistor, so the correct answer is c.
