Explanation:
If a positive test charge is placed in an electric field, it will exert the force in the test charge in the direction of electric field vector. We know that the direction of electric field is given by electric field lines. The field lines for a positive charge is outwards. The electric force acting on the charge is given by :
F = q E
Hence, this is the required solution.
Answer:
0 J
Explanation:
= Work done on the satellite in circular orbit about earth by earth
= Force on gravity on satellite by earth
= displacement of the satellite
= Angle between the force on gravity and displacement = 90
We know that, Work done is given as
Answer:
Well the definition of an application is the act of putting to a special use or purpose so lam assuming that you want specific uses that scientists make of gravity in their work.
Well our first application has helped us to send satellites around the solar system with what Nasa calls gravity assist. Using a particular planets gravity to slingshot a satellite to another destination. Look it up.
The next application much simpler but here on Earth. There are many hydro-electric power stations in use all over the world. Water is stored at a high level and released falling 100s of metres to a turbine where it generates electricity.
Hope that helps.
Explanation:
When the diver reaches maximum height, the upward velocity will be zero.
We shall use the formula
v^2 = u^2 - 2gh
where
v = 0 (velocity at maximum height)
u = 1.2 m/s, intial upward velocity
g = -9.8 m/s^2, gravitational acceleration (downward)
h = maximum height attained above the diving board.
Therefore
0 = 1.2^2 - 2*9.8*h
h = 1.2^2/(2*9.8) = 0.0735 m
Answer: 0.074 m (nearest thousandth)
