Answer:

E  = -6 \  N/C

Generally given that the electric field is negative it mean that its direction is opposite to that of the force    

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The charge on the small object is Q = -4.00 \ nC =  -4.00 *10^{-9} \  C

   The force is  F  =  24  \ nN  =  24 *10^{-9} \  N

    Generally the magnitude of the electric  field is mathematically represented as

       E  =  \frac{F}{Q}

=>    E  =  \frac{ 24 *10^{-9}} {-4 *10^{-9 }}

=>     E  = -6 \  N/C

Generally given that the electric field is negative it mean that its direction is opposite to that of the force

A fighter bomber is making a bombing run flying horizontally at 500 knots (256m/s) at an altitude of 100.0m.
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

<em>(a) t = 4.52 sec</em>

<em>(b) X = 1,156.49 m</em>

Explanation:

<u>Horizontal Launching </u>

If an object is launched horizontally, its initial speed is zero in the y-coordinate and the horizontal component of the velocity v_o remains the same in time. The distance x is computed as .

\displaystyle x=v_o.t

(a)

The vertical component of the velocity v_y starts from zero and gradually starts to increase due to the acceleration of gravity as follows

v_y=gt

This means the vertical height is computed by

\displaystyle h=h_o-\frac{gt^2}{2}

Where h_o is the initial height. Our fighter bomber is 100 m high, so we can compute the time the bomb needs to reach the ground by solving the above equation for t knowing h=0

\displaystyle t=\sqrt{\frac{2h_o}{g}}

\displaystyle t=\sqrt{\frac{2(100)}{9.8}}=4.52\ sec

(b)

We now compute the horizontal distance knowing v_o=256\ m/s

\displaystyle x=(256).(4.52)

X=1,156.49\ m

alisha [4.7K]

The variable that changes is the period of the motion.

<h3>What is simple harmonic motion?</h3>

The term simple harmonic motion refers to a regular repeating motion. The acceleration of the SHM is always directed towards the center. The spring is an example of a system undergoing simple harmonic motion.

From the description in the question, the variable that changes is the period of the motion.
