Answer:

Duck's kinetic energy is 64.8 Joules

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the duck, m = 0.9 kg

Velocity of the duck is, v = 12 m/s

We have to find the velocity of the duck. It is given due to the motion of an object. Mathematically, it is written as :

$KE=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

$KE=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.9\ kg\times (12\ m/s)^2$

KE = 64.8 Joules

Hence, the kinetic energy of the duck is 64.8 Joules

Two electrons are separated by a distance of 3.00 x 10^-6 meter. What are the magnitude and direction of the electrostatic force

Brilliant_brown [7]

The electrostatic force between two charges q1 and q2 is given by
$F=k_e \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}$
where
$k_e = 8.99 \cdot 10^9 N m^2 C^{-2}$ is the Coulomb's constant
$r=3.00 \cdot 10^{-6} m$ is the distance between the two charges.

In our problem, the two charges are two electrons, so their charges are equal and equal to
$q_1=q_2=q=-1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C$

By substituting these values, we find the intensity of the force between the two electrons:
$F=(8.99 \cdot 10^9 N m^2 C^{-2}) \frac{(-1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C)(-1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C)}{(3.00 \cdot 10^{-6} m)^2}=2.6 \cdot 10^{-17}N$

This is the magnitude of the force each electron exerts to the other one. The direction is given by the sign of the charges: since the two electrons have same charge, they repel each other, so the force exerted by electron 1 is toward electron 2 and viceversa.

An exoplanet has three times the mass and one-fourth the radius of the Earth. Find the acceleration due to gravity on its surfac

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

b. 48.0 g.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the exoplanet, $M_p = 3M_e$

radius of the exoplanet, $r_p = \frac{1}{4} r_e$

The acceleration due to gravity of the planet is calculated as;

$g_p = \frac{GM_p}{r_p^2} \\\\for \ Earth's \ surface\\\\g = \frac{GM_e}{r_e^2} \\\\G = \frac{gr_e^2}{M_e} = \frac{g_pr_p^2}{M_p} \\\\\frac{gr_e^2}{M_e} = \frac{g_p(\frac{r_e}{4}) ^2}{3M_e} \\\\\frac{gr_e^2}{M_e} = \frac{g_pr_e ^2}{16\times 3M_e} \\\\g = \frac{g_p}{48} \\\\g_p = 48 \ g$

Therefore, the correct option is b. 48.0 g

How long does it take light to reach us from the Sun, 1.53x108 km away? Give your answer in minutes.

muminat

Answer:

Sun light takes 8.5 minutes to reach Earth.

Explanation:

Light travels in vacuum at constant speed $c= 3 \times 10 ^8 \cfrac ms$ , so we can find the time it takes to travel the given distance from Earth to Sun using a kinematic equation.
