The velocity of the package after it has fallen for 3.0 s is 29.4 m/s

From the question,

A small package is dropped from the Golden Gate Bridge.

This means the initial velocity of the package is 0 m/s.

We are to calculate the velocity of the package after it has fallen for 3.0 s.

From one of the equations of kinematics for objects falling freely,

We have that,

v = u + gt

Where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

g is the acceleration due to gravity

and t is time

To calculate the velocity of the package after it has fallen for 3.0 s

That means, we will determine the value of v, at time t = 3.0 s

The parameters are

u = 0 m/s

g = 9.8 m/s²

t = 3.0 s

Putting these values into the equation

v = u + gt

We get

v = 0 + (9.8×3.0)

v = 0 + 29.4

v = 29.4 m/s

Hence, the velocity of the package after it has fallen for 3.0 s is 29.4 m/s

Amount of force exerted on an object due to gravity is called

MAXImum [283]

The gravitational force between a mass and the Earth is the object'sweight. Mass is considered a measure of an object's inertia, and its weight is the force exerted on the object in a gravitational field. On the surface of the Earth, the two forces are related by the acceleration due to gravity: Fg = mg.

A spherical capacitor contains a charge of 3.00 nC when connected to a potential difference of 230 V. If its plates are separate

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

Part(a): the capacitance is 0.013 nF.

Part(b): the radius of the inner sphere is 3.1 cm.

Part(c): the electric field just outside the surface of inner sphere is $\bf{2.81 \times 10^{4}~n~C^{-1}}$ .

Explanation:

We know that if 'a' and 'b' are the inner and outer radii of the shell respectively, 'Q' is the total charge contains by the capacitor subjected to a potential difference of 'V' and ' $\epsilon_{0}$ ' be the permittivity of free space, then the capacitance (C) of the spherical shell can be written as

$C = \dfrac{4 \pi \epsilon_{0}}{(\dfrac{1}{a} - \dfrac{1}{b})}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(1)$

Part(a):

Given, charge contained by the capacitor Q = 3.00 nC and potential to which it is subjected to is V = 230V.

So the capacitance (C) of the shell is

$C &=& \dfrac{Q}{V} = \dfrac{3 \times 10^{-90}~C}{230~V} = 1.3 \times 10^{-11}~F = 0.013~nF$

Part(b):

Given the inner radius of the outer shell b = 4.3 cm = 0.043 m. Therefore, from equation (1), rearranging the terms,

$&& \dfrac{1}{a} = \dfrac{1}{b} + \dfrac{1}{C/4 \pi \epsilon_{0}} = \dfrac{1}{0.043} + \dfrac{1}{1.3 \times 10^{-11} \times 9 \times 10^{9}} = 31.79\\&or,& a = \dfrac{1}{31.79}~m = 0.031~m = 3.1~cm$

Part(c):

If we apply Gauss' law of electrostatics, then

$&& E~4 \pi a^{2} = \dfrac{Q}{\epsilon_{0}}\\&or,& E = \dfrac{Q}{4 \pi \epsilon_{0}a^{2}}\\&or,& E = \dfrac{3 \times 10^{-9} \times 9 \times 10^{9}}{0.031^{2}}~N~C^{-1}\\&or,& E = 2.81 \times 10^{4}~N~C^{-1}$
