If two charged objects in a laboratory are brought to a distance of 0.22 meters away from each other. What is

zysi [14]

Answer:

$q_2=2.47\times 10^{-4}\ C$

Explanation:

The charge on one object, $q_1=9.9\times 10^{-5}\ C$

The distance between the charges, r = 0.22 m

The force between the charges, F = 4,550 N

Let q₂ is the charge on the other sphere. The electrostatic force between two charges is given by the formula as follows :

$F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}\\\\q_2=\dfrac{Fr^2}{kq_1}\\\\q_2=\dfrac{4550\times (0.22) ^2}{9\times 10^9\times 9.9\times 10^{-5}}\\\\q_2=2.47\times 10^{-4}\ C$

So, the charge on the other sphere is $2.47\times 10^{-4}\ C$ .

n a level football field a football is projected from ground level. It has speed 9.0 m/sm/s when it is at its maximum height. It

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

T = 0.225 s

Explanation:

The speed of a projectile at the highest point of its motion is the horizontal speed of the projectile. Considering the horizontal motion with negligible air resistance, we can use the following formula:

$v_x = RT\\\\T = \frac{v_x}{R}$

where,

T = Total time of ball in air = ?

R = Horizontal distance covered = 40 m

$v_x$ = horizontal speed = 9 m/s

Therefore,

$T = \frac{9\ m/s}{40\ m}$

If an object is moving eastward and slowing down, then the direction of its acceleration vector is

iragen [17]

It would still be eastward because The direction of the velocity vector is always in the same direction as the direction which the object moves.

Two scientists interpret the same set of data differently. How would the scientific community deal with this problem?

alexdok [17]

The correct answer would be D. A new experiment would be needed to be done in order to test the conclusions. In science there is no authority, data is the only thing that matters. So if we have two different conclusions from the same date the only solution is to perform more tests and more experiments to see what is correct.
