6 0

Answer:

A) 7.0 m/s²

Explanation:

Acceleration is found by using the formula:

a = Δv/Δt

This means the change in time divided by the time interval will give us the car's acceleration.

Since the car starts from rest, its initial velocity is 0 m/s. Its final velocity is 35 m/s. The time interval for the car to go from 0 to 35 m/s is 5.0 seconds.

a = (v - v₀)/t

Substitute the final and initial velocity into the formula.

a = (35 - 0)/5
a = 35/5
a = 7

The acceleration of the car is A) 7.0 m/s².

A woman standing before a cliff claps her hands, and 2.8s later she hears the echo. How far away is the cliff? The speed of soun

ella [17]

Answer:

480.2 m

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Speed of sound (v) = 343 m/s.

Time (t) = 2.8 s

Distance (x) of the cliff =?

The distance of the cliff from the woman can be obtained as follow:

v = 2x /t

343 = 2x /2.8

Cross multiply

2x = 343 × 2.8

2x = 960.4

Divide both side by the coefficient of x i.e 2

x = 960.4/2

x = 480.2 m

Therefore, the cliff is 480.2 m away from the woman.

There is a parallel plate capacitor. Both plates are 4x2 cm and are 10 cm apart. The top plate has surface charge density of 10C

liberstina [14]

Answer:

1) The total charge of the top plate is 0.008 C

b) The total charge of the bottom plate is -0.008 C

2) The electric field at the point exactly midway between the plates is 0

3) The electric field between plates is approximately 1.1294 × 10¹² N/C

4) The force on an electron in the middle of the two plates is approximately 1.807 × 10⁻⁷ N

Explanation:

The given parameters of the parallel plate capacitor are;

The dimensions of the plates = 4 × 2 cm

The distance between the plates = 10 cm

The surface charge density of the top plate, σ₁ = 10 C/m²

The surface charge density of the bottom plate, σ₂ = -10 C/m²

The surface area, A = 0.04 m × 0.02 m = 0.0008 m²

1) The total charge of the top plate, Q = σ₁ × A = 0.0008 m² × 10 C/m² = 0.008 C

b) The total charge of the bottom plate, Q = σ₂ × A = 0.0008 m² × -10 C/m² = -0.008 C

2) The electrical field at the point exactly midway between the plates is given as follows;

$V_{tot} = V_{q1} + V_{q2}$

$V_q = \dfrac{k \cdot q}{r}$

Therefore, we have;

The distance to the midpoint between the two plates = 10 cm/2 = 5 cm = 0.05 m

$V_{tot} = \dfrac{k \cdot q}{0.05} + \dfrac{k \cdot (-q)}{0.05} = \dfrac{k \cdot q}{0.05} - \dfrac{k \cdot q}{0.05} = 0$

The electric field at the point exactly midway between the plates, $V_{tot}$ = 0

3) The electric field, 'E', between plates is given as follows;

$E =\dfrac{\sigma }{\epsilon_0 } = \dfrac{10 \ C/m^2}{8.854 \times 10^{-12} \ C^2/(N\cdot m^2)} \approx 1.1294 \times 10^{12}\ N/C$

E ≈ 1.1294 × 10¹² N/C

The electric field between plates, E ≈ 1.1294 × 10¹² N/C

4) The force on an electron in the middle of the two plates

The charge on an electron, e = -1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

The force on an electron in the middle of the two plates, $F_e$ = E × e

∴ $F_e$ = 1.1294 × 10¹² N/C × -1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C ≈ 1.807 × 10⁻⁷ N

The force on an electron in the middle of the two plates, $F_e$ ≈ 1.807 × 10⁻⁷ N
