Answer:

B. It is directly proportional to the source charge.

Explanation:

Gauss's law states that the total (net) flux of an electric field at points on a closed surface is directly proportional to the electric charge enclosed by that surface.

This ultimately implies that, Gauss's law relates the electric field at points on a closed surface to the net charge enclosed by that surface.

This electromagnetism law was formulated in 1835 by famous scientists known as Carl Friedrich Gauss.

Mathematically, Gauss's law is given by this formula;

ϕ = (Q/ϵ0)

Where;

ϕ is the electric flux.

Q represents the total charge in an enclosed surface.

ε0 is the electric constant.

Hence, the statement which is true of the electric field at a distance from the source charge is that it is directly proportional to the source charge.

The height of a projectile t seconds after it is launched straight up in the air is given by f (t )equals negative 16 t squared

velikii [3]

Answer:

$\displaystyle a(5)=-32$

Explanation:

Instant Acceleration

The kinetic magnitudes are usually related as scalar or vector equations. By doing so, we are assuming the acceleration is constant over time. But when the acceleration is variable, the relations are in the form of calculus equations, specifically using derivatives and/or integrals.

Let f(t) be the distance traveled by an object as a function of the time t. The instant speed v(t) is defined as:

$\displaystyle v(t)=\frac{df}{dt}$

And the acceleration is

$\displaystyle a(t)=\frac{dv}{dt}$

Or equivalently

$\displaystyle a(t)=\frac{d^2f}{d^2t}$

The given height of a projectile is

$f(t)=-16t^2 +238t+3$

Let's compute the speed

$\displaystyle v(t)=-32t+238$

And the acceleration

$\displaystyle a(t)=-32$

It's a constant value regardless of the time t, thus

$\boxed{\displaystyle a(5)=-32}$

A bullet with a mass of 5 gramsand speed of 560 m/sis fired horizontally atablock of wood with a mass of 2 kg. The block rests o

Anni [7]

Momentum is conserved if and only if sum of all forces which are exserted on system equals zero. In our situation there are only internal forces, so by Newton's third law their vector sum is 0.

So $mv=(m+M)v' \Leftrightarrow v'=\frac{mv}{m+M}$ .

Kinetic energy of system at first: $\frac{mv^2}{2}=784\;\textbf{J}$ . After: $\frac{(m+M)\frac{m^2v^2}{(m+M)^2} }{2}=\frac{m^2v^2}{2(m+M)}\approx 1,96\; \textbf{J}$ . The secret is that other energy is in work of deformation forces (they in turn heat a bullet and a block).

Answer is A)

Which statement is true about gravitational forces?

Readme [11.4K]

Hey there!

Your correct answer would be (Every mass exerts a gravitational force on every other mass.) It really doesn't matter the size in mass what so ever, gravity is stronger than mass, mass in nothing compared to mass. Therefor, gravity exert's mass on any object with any size of mass.

Your correct answer would be . . .

 $\boxed{\boxed{Every \ mass \ exerts \ a \ gravitational \ force \ on \ every \ other \ mass}}$

Hope this helps.
