Answer:

The electric field always decreases.

Explanation:

The electric field due to a point charge is given by :

E=\dfrac{kq}{r^2}

Where

k = electric constant

q = charge

r = distance from the charge

It is clear from the above equation that as the distance from the charge particle increases the electric field decreases. As you move away from a positive charge distribution, the electric field always decreases. Hence, the correct option is (c) "Always decreases".

inessss [21]

If the vertical component is 29.6 m/s down, and the horizontal component
is 54.8 m/s parallel to the surface, then the magnitude of the slanty vector is

   √(29.6² + 54.8²) = √(876.16 + 3003.04) = √3879.2  =  62.28 m/s .

That's 139 mph !  Wow !

A paper clip that has a mass of 1.5 grams is thrown into the air and initially has a kinetic energy
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

v = 4.2 \ m/s

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of the paper clip, m = 1.5 \ g = 0.0015 \ kg

Kinetic energy, K = 0.013 \ \rm J

Let the velocity of the paper clip when it is thrown be <em>v</em>.

Thus,

K = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

0.013 = 0.5 \times 0.0015 \times v^{2}

\Rightarrow \ v = 4.16 \ m/s

v = 4.2 \ m/s.  (rounding to nearest tenth)

A mass of 3.6 kg oscillate on a horizontal spring with a spring constant of 160 N/m.
Darya [45]

Answer:

48.7 J

Explanation:

For a mass-spring system, there is a continuous conversion of energy between elastic potential energy and kinetic energy.

In particular:

- The elastic potential energy is maximum when the system is at its maximum displacement

- The kinetic energy is maximum when the system passes through the equilibrium position

Therefore, the maximum kinetic energy of the system is given by:

KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m is the mass

v is the speed at equilibrium position

In this problem:

m = 3.6 kg

v = 5.2 m/s

Therefore, the maximum kinetic energy is:

KE=\frac{1}{2}(3.6)(5.2)^2=48.7 J

A fan that is rotating at 960 rev/s is turned off. It makes 1500 revolutions before it comes to a stop. a) What was its angular
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

α = 1930.2 rad/s²

Explanation:

The angular acceleration can be found by using the third equation of motion:

2\alpha \theta=\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2

where,

α = angular acceleration = ?

θ = angular displacement = (1500 rev)(2π rad/1 rev) = 9424.78 rad

ωf = final angular speed = 0 rad/s

ωi = initial angular speed = (960 rev/s)(2π rad/1 rev) = 6031.87 rad/s

Therefore,

2\alpha(9424.78\ rad) = (0\ rad/s)^2-(6031.87\ rad/s)^2\\\\\alpha = -\frac{(6031.87\ rad/s)^2}{(2)(9424.78\ rad)}

<u>α = - 1930.2 rad/s²</u>

<u>negative sign shows deceleration</u>

A gas storage cylinder in an ordinary chemical laboratory measures wide and high. This is the label on it. Contents: gas Pressur
zhenek [66]

Complete Question

A gas storage cylinder in an ordinary chemical laboratory measures 3.5 cm wide and 9.2 cm high with this label on it:

Contents: N2 Gas

Pressure 18.6 atm

If the cylinder is opened and the gas allowed to escape into a large empty plastic bag, what will be the final volume of nitrogen gas, including what’s collected in the plastic bag and what’s left over in the cylinder?

Use 1 atm for the gas final pressure

Answer:

The final volume is 1647.03cm³ or 1.65 litres

Explanation:

Given

Width of cylinder, W = 3.5 cm

Height of Cylinder, H = 9.2 cm

Gas Initial Pressure, P1 = 18.6 atm

Gas Final Pressure, P2 = 1 atm

First, the initial volume of gas has to be calculated to known the quantity of gas before gas outflow

Volume of Gas, V = Volume of a cylinder

V = πr²h

Given the the width of the cylinder is 3.5cm

This means that the diameter of the cylinder is also 3.5cm

Hence; Diameter, D = 3.5cm

Radius, r = ½D

r = ½ * 3.5cm

r = 1.75cm

So, V1 = πr²h becomes

V1 = π * 1.75² * 9.2

V1 = 28.175π cm³

V1 = 88.55 cm³

From Ideal Gas Law;

PV = nRT

Where k = PV (From Boyle's Law)

P1V1 = P2V2 ---- Make V2 the subject of formula

V2 = (P1V1)/P2

Where P1,P2,V1 and V2 represent the initial pressure, final pressure, initial volume and final volume, respectively.

Recall that P1 = 18.6 atm

P2 = 1 atm

V1 = 88.55 cm³

Final volume, V2 = (P1V1)/P2

V2 = (18.6 atm * 88.55 cm³)/1 atm³

V2 = 1647.03cm³

Convert to Litre

V2 = 1647.03/1000

V2 = 1.64703 litres

V2 = 1.65 L

Hence, the final volume is 1647.03cm³ or 1.65litres
