The location of the point F that partitions a line segment from D to E (\overline{DE}), that goes from <u>negative 4</u> to <u>positive 5,</u> into a 5:6 ratio is fifteen halves (option 4).  

We need to calculate the segment of the line DE to find the location of point F.

Since point D is located at <u>negative -4</u> and point E is at <u>positive 5</u>, we have:

\overline{DE} = E - D = 5 - (-4) = 9

Hence, the segment of the line DE (\overline{DE}) is 9.

Knowing that point F partitions the line segment from D to E (\overline{DE}) into a <u>5:6 ratio</u>, its location would be:

F = \frac{5}{6}\overline{DE} = \frac{5}{6}9 = 5*\frac{3}{2} = \frac{15}{2}  

Therefore, the location of point F is fifteen halves (option 4).

A spacecraft flies away from the earth with a speed of 4.80×106m/s relative to the earth and then returns at the same speed. The
marta [7]

Answer:

1.1215 h

Explanation:

Δt=Δt_o/√(1-u^2/c^2)

(Δt° is the proper time in the rest frame,

Δt is the time intent measured in the second frame of reference u is the speed of the second frame with respect to the rest frame c is the speed of light )  

a) the proper time is the time on spacecraft (rest frame);

Δt = 365 days = 8760 h  

Δt=Δt_o/√(1-u^2/c^2)= 8761.1215 h

the difference = 8761.1215 h — 8760 h   = 1.1215 h

How does a theory differ from a theory
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world, based on a body of facts that have been repeatedly confirmed through observation and experiment. Such fact-supported theories are not "guesses" but reliable accounts of the real world.

Question 1.

  • mass = 4500 kg
  • potential energy (p.e) = 67500 J

now, we know :

=》

p.e =  mgh

=》

67500 = 4500 \times 10 \times h

=》

67500 = 45000 \times h

=》

h =  \dfrac{67500}{45000}

=》

h = 1.5 \: m

note : if we take acceleration due to gravity as 9.8, then height = 1.53 m

Question 2.

  • mass = 4500 kg
  • kinetic energy = 63000 j

we know,

=》

k.e =  \dfrac{1}{2} mv {}^{2}

=》

63000 =  \dfrac{1}{2}  \times 4500 \times  {v}^{2}

=》

{v}^{2}  =  \dfrac{63000 \times 2}{4500}

=》

{v}^{2}  = 28

=》

v =  \sqrt{28}

=》

v = 2 \sqrt{7} \:  \:  ms {}^{ - 1}

or

=》

5.29 \:  \: ms {}^{ - 1}

A 10.0-cm-long uniformly charged plastic rod is sealed inside a plastic bag. The net electric flux through the bag is 7.50 × 10
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

66.375 x 10⁻⁶ C/m

Explanation:

Using Gauss's law which states that the net electric flux (∅) through a closed surface is the ratio of the enclosed charge (Q) to the permittivity (ε₀) of the medium. This can be represented as ;

∅ = Q / ε₀        -----------------(i)

Where;

∅ = 7.5 x 10⁵ Nm²/C

ε₀ = permittivity of free space (which is air, since it is enclosed in a bag) = 8.85 x 10⁻¹² Nm²/C²

Now, let's first get the charge (Q) by substituting the values above into equation (i) as follows;

7.5 x 10⁵ = Q / (8.85 x 10⁻¹²)

Solve for Q;

Q = 7.5 x 10⁵ x 8.85 x 10⁻¹²

Q = 66.375 x 10⁻⁷ C

Now, we can find the linear charge density (L) which is the ratio of the charge(Q) to the length (l) of the rod. i.e

L = Q / l     ----------------------(ii)

Where;

Q = 66.375 x 10⁻⁷ C

l = length of the rod = 10.0cm = 0.1m

Substitute these values into equation (ii) as follows;

L = 66.375 x 10⁻⁷C / 0.1m

L = 66.375 x 10⁻⁶ C/m

Therefore, the linear charge density (charge per unit length) on the rod is 66.375 x 10⁻⁶ C/m.
