Answer: This number has three significant figures.

Explanation: Trailing zeros, which are zeros at the end of a number, are significant only if the number has a decimal point. Thus, in 1,500 m, the two trailing zeros are not significant because the number is written without a decimal point.

Q¹=0,07Mc Q²=2C r=1,08 cm F=.......?

Nostrana [21]

The force (F) of attraction or repulsion between two point charges (Q1 and Q2) is given by the following rule:
F = (k * q1 * q2) / (r^2) where:
q1 and q2 are the charges
k is coulomb's constant = 9 x 10^9 N. m2/ C2
r is the distance between the two charges.

Applying the givens in the mentioned equation, we find that:
F = (9 x 10^9 x 0.07 x 10^6 x 2) / (0.0108)^2 = 1.08 x 10^19 n

a person using a machine applies a force of 100 newton's over a distance of 10 Meters to raise a 500 n object 1.5 meters what is

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

Work done by the machine (W) = 500 × 1.5 = 750 J

Work supplied to the machine (W) = 100 × 10 = 1000 J

Here, work supplied to the machine is input work = 1000 J

Emily wanted to see what battery lasted the longest. She put each battery into a clock and recorded the time that the clock stop

AURORKA [14]

Answer:

This question is asking to identify the following variables:

Independent variable (IV): Battery

Dependent variable (DV): Time the clock stopped

Constant: Same clock

Control: No stated control

Explanation:

The independent variable in an experiment is the variable that is subject to manipulation or change by the experimenter. In this experiment, the independent variable is the BATTERIES (Duracell, Energizer, Kroger brand, EverReady).

The dependent variable is the variable that responds to the changes made to the independent variable. It is the variable that the experimenter measures. In this case, the dependent variable is the TIME IT TAKES FOR THE CLOCK TO STOP.

Constants or control variable is the variable that the experimenter keeps constant or unchanged for all groups throughout the experiment in order not to influence the outcome of the experiment. The constant in this case is the SAME CLOCK USED.

Control group is the group that does not receive the experimental treatment or independent variable in an experiment. In this case, all groups received a different kind of battery.

A bus hits a bug and the bug splatters on the windshield, which force is greater?

grandymaker [24]

The forces acting on a body and the type of motion that results are given by Newton's three Laws of motion

The force of the bus is the same as reactive force of the bug

Reason:

According to Newton's third Law of motion, given that the bug collides

with the bus, the force with which the bus hits the bug is equal to the

reactive force of the bug on the on the bus

According to Newton's second Law of motion, force is equal to the rate of

change of the momentum produced

The impulse of the force of the bus on the bug is given as follows;

F·Δt = m·(v₂ - v₁)

Given that the force of the bus is large, the change in momentum, m·(v₂ - v₁),

is also large such that the parts of the bug are split by the rapid change in

velocity, and the bug splatters on the windshield, and is then carried along

on the trip,

The equally large reactive force of the bug, is such that the bug splatters

due its magnitude

Therefore, the correct response is that the forces are the same
