John accidentally drops his keys off the balcony at his apartment. John's friend Tony just happens to walk by at that moment and

picks up the keys to throw them back up to John. If John is 5.33 meters above the sidewalk where Tony is, and Tony throws at 18 m/s at a 40 degree angle above the horizontal, will the keys make it back to John?

Explanation:

In order to find out if the keys will reach John or not, we can use the formula of projectile motion to find the maximum height reached by the keys:

H = V²Sin²θ/2g

where,

V = Launch Speed = 18 m/s

θ = Launch Angle = 40°

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

H = (18 m/s)²[Sin 40°]²/(2)(9.8 m/s²)

H = 6.83 m

Hence, the maximum height that can be reached by the projectile or the keys is greater than the height of John's Balcony(5.33 m).

Therefore, the keys will make it back to John.

As a capacitor is being charged in an RC circuit. the current flowing through a resistor isa) increasingb) decreasingc) constant
Montano1993 [528]
<h2>Answer: decreasing</h2>

An RC circuit is an electrical circuit composed of resistors and capacitors, where the charging time T of the circuit is proportional to the magnitude of the electrical resistance R and the capacity C of the capacitor.  

As shown below:

T=R.C

In this context, the electrical resistance is the opposition to the flow of electrons when moving through a conductor.

Therefore:

<h2>When a capacitor is being charged in an RC circuit, the current flowing through a resistor <u>decreases</u>.</h2>

And the correct option is b.

How can inclined planes change the amount of force to move an object? A. Increase height of the inclined plane B. Increase dista
mash [69]

Answer:

Option ( B ) is correct .

Explanation:

To lift a heavy weight , inclined plane is used . Use of inclined plane , makes the task easier because instead of force mg , force mg sinθ is to be used which is less than mg . Here θ is inclination of inclined plane.

If h be the height by which weight is to be lifted

potential energy acquired by weight = mgh

work done by force mg sinθ = mgsinθ x d where d is displacement required .

mg sinθ x d = mgh  ( work done by force = potential energy stored in luggage )

d = h / sinθ

d will be more than h

Hence inclined plane increases the distance to be covered by force applied though it decreases the force itself.

Hence option ( B ) is correct .

A particular coaxial cable is comprised of inner and outer conductors having radii 1 mm and 3 mm respectively, separated by air.
noname [10]

Answer:

The value is  \rho_s  =  4.026 *10^{-6} \  C/m^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The radius of the inner conductor  is  r_1 = 1 \ mm =  0.001 \ m

    The radius of the outer conductor is  r_2 = 3 \ mm = 0.003 \  m

    The potential at the outer conductor is  V = 1.5 kV  =  1.5 *10^{3} \  V

Generally the capacitance per length of the capacitor like set up of the two conductors is

      C= \frac{2 * \pi * \epsilon_o }{ ln [\frac{r_2}{r_1} ]}

Here \epsilon_o is the permitivity of free space with value  \epsilon_o =  8.85*10^{-12} C/(V \cdot m)

=>   C= \frac{2 *  3.142  * 8.85*10^{-12}  }{ ln [\frac{0.003}{0.001} ]}

=>   C= 50.6 *10^{-12} \  F/m

Generally given that the potential  of the outer conductor with respect to the inner conductor is positive it then mean that the outer conductor is positively charge

Generally the line  charge density of the outer  conductor is mathematically represented as

      \rho_l  =  C *  V

=>   \rho_d  =  50.6*10^{-12} *  1.5*10^{3}

=>   \rho_d  =  7.59*10^{-8} \  C/m

Generally the surface charge density is mathematically represented as

        \rho_s  =  \frac{\rho_l }{2 \pi * r_2 }    here 2 \pi r = (circumference \ of \ outer \  conductor  )

=>    \rho_s  =  \frac{7.59 *10^{-8} }{2* 3.142 * 0.003 }

=>    \rho_s  =  4.026 *10^{-6} \  C/m^2
