Answer:

This appears to be the formula for the electrical force between 2 objects.

You need this constant to calculate the electrical force between 2 charged objects.

Note that k = (1 / 4 * π ∈0)

∈0 is called the permittivity constant and ∈0 = 8.85E-12 farad/m

k = ( 1 / (4 * 3.28 * 8.85E-12) = 8.99E9

This makes F reasonably easy to remember as

F = 9E9 Q1 * Q2 / R^2 Newtons for the electrical force between Q! and Q2 separated by R

What is the name of the specification that indicates the frequencies that are dedicated for data transmission over cable lines?

mihalych1998 [28]

The answer to this question is the term
DOCSIS. A DOCSIS or Data Over Cable Service Interface Specification is a telecommunication standard or interface where in an internet was being provided by the use of cables. The advantage of using DOCSIS is that the speed of the internet is faster using this kind of interface.

Two blocks connected by a rope of negligible mass are being dragged by a horizontal force (see figure below). Suppose F = 65.0 N

vovangra [49]

Refer to the diagram shown below.

g = 9.8 m/s², and air resistance is ignored.

For mass m₁:
The normal reaction is m₁g.
The resisting force is R₁ = μm₁g.

For mass m₂:
The normal reaction is m₂g.
The resisting force is R₂ = μm₂g.

Let a = the acceleration of the system.
Then
(m₁ + m₂)a = F - (R₁ + R₂)
(14+26 kg)*(a m/s²) = (65 N) - 0.098*(9.8 m/s²)*(14+26 kg)
40a = 65 - 38.416 = 26.584
a = 0.6646 m/s²

Answer: 0.665 m/s² (nearest thousandth)

39 g aluminum spoon (specific heat 0.904 J/g·°C) at 24°C is placed in 166 mL (166 g) of coffee at 83°C and the temperature of th

tatuchka [14]

<u>Answer:</u> The final temperature of the solution is $80.14^oC$

<u>Explanation:</u>

The amount of heat released by coffee will be absorbed by aluminium spoon.

Thus, $\text{heat}_{absorbed}=\text{heat}_{released}$

To calculate the amount of heat released or absorbed, we use the equation:

$Q=m\times c\times \Delta T=m\times c\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})$

Also,

$m_1\times c_1\times (T_{final}-T_1)=-[m_2\times c_2\times (T_{final}-T_2)]$ ..........(1)

where,

q = heat absorbed or released

$m_1$ = mass of aluminium = 39 g

$m_2$ = mass of coffee = 166 g

$T_{final}$ = final temperature = ?

$T_1$ = temperature of aluminium = $24^oC$

$T_2$ = temperature of coffee = $83^oC$

$c_1$ = specific heat of aluminium = $0.904J/g^oC$

$c_2$ = specific heat of coffee= $4.1801J/g^oC$

Putting all the values in equation 1, we get:

$39\times 0.904\times (T_{final}-24)=-[166\times 4.1801\times (T_{final}-83)]$

$T_{final}=80.14^oC$

Hence, the final temperature of the solution is $80.14^oC$

Cables and conductors installed on the side of a pole or building shall be protected up to ___feet above finished grade.

Allisa [31]

Answer:

10 feet.

Explanation:

Conductors are considered outside the building when they installed. The requirement of NEC is above 10 feet for the clearance after the final grade for service conductors and cables where they are connected with the building, above the sidewalks and the to other areas which are accessible to the pedestrians.

Marcus drove his Honda Prelude for 4 hours at a rate of 55 miles per hour. How far did he travel?

galben [10]

To solve this, you’d multiply 55 by 4, because he is travelling 55 miles every hour, for four hours, which means 55 miles every hour. The answer would be 220.
