The earth has a vertical electric field at the surface, pointing down, that averages 100 N/C. This field is maintained by variou
zlopas [31]

Answer:

q = 3.6 10⁵  C

Explanation:

To solve this exercise, let's use one of the consequences of Gauss's law, that all the charge on a body can be considered at its center, therefore we calculate the electric field on the surface of a sphere with the radius of the Earth

          r = 6 , 37 106 m

          E = k q / r²

          q = E r² / k

          q = \frac{100 \ (6.37 \ 10^6)^2}{9 \ 10^9}

          q = 4.5 10⁵ C

Now let's calculate the charge on the planet with E = 222 N / c and radius

           r = 0.6 r_ Earth

           r = 0.6 6.37 10⁶ = 3.822 10⁶ m

           E = k q / r²

            q = E r² / k

            q = \frac{222 (3.822 \ 10^6)^2}{ 9 \ 10^9}

            q = 3.6 10⁵  C

2. A car accelerates uniformly from +10.0 m/s to +50.0 m/s over a distance of 225 m. How long did it take to go that distance? S
artcher [175]
Let's call the constant acceleration a.
At a time t, its speed will thus be v(t)=a*t+v0 where v0 is its initial speed, here 10 m/s. Hence v(t)=a*t+10.

From there we can deduce the position P(t)=a*t^2/2+10t+p0 where p0 is the initial position, here 0.

Hence P(t)=a*t^2/2+10t

Let's call T the time at which it's at 50 m/s, we know that P(T)=225m and that v(T)=50 m/s hence a*T+10=50 thus a=40/T and P(T)=(40/2+10)T=30T

Hence T=225/30=7.5

It took 7.5 seconds

Which of the following are true about centripetal force? Check all that apply. A. Without centripetal force, an object cannot ac
Katyanochek1 [597]

B. Friction can be a centripetal force, such as when it keeps a car on the road going around a curve.

C. Gravity can be a centripetal force, such as when it pulls a satellite in its orbit.

Explanation:

The centripetal force is any force that keeps an object moving in circular motion, "pulling" the object towards the centre of the circular trajectory.

Several forces can act as centripetal force. Examples are:

- friction: when a car is going around the curve, is moving by circular motion. The force that keeps the car in circular motion is, in fact, the friction between the tires and the road.

- Gravity: when a satellite moves around the Earth, it is moving by circular motion. The force that keeps the satellite in circular motion is the gravitational attraction between the Earth and the satellite, that pushes the satellite towards the Earth.

The other two options are not correct because:

A) An object can also accelerate if there is no centripetal force (for example, a car speeding up on a straight road is accelerating, but there is no centripetal force since there is no circular motion

D) Centripetal force is not an outward force, since it pushes the object inwards (towards the centre of the trajectory).

A tennis ball is thrown into
liraira [26]

Answer:

Velocity (v) is a vector quantity that measures displacement (or change in position, Δs) over the change in time (Δt), represented by the equation v = Δs/Δt. Speed (or rate, r) is a scalar quantity that measures the distance traveled (d) over the change in time (Δt), represented by the equation r = d/Δt.
