I don't understand when to use the formule with the constant k, and when to use the formula without it.

Physics

White raven [17]3 years ago

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

The electric potential a distance r from a small charge is proportional to what power of the distance from the charge?
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

The power of the distance is -1.

Explanation:

The equation for the electric potential of a point charge is given by V= k\frac{q}{r}

where V is the electric potential, k is Coulomb's constant (it has a value of 9.0*10^{9} with units \frac{Nm^{2} }{c^{2} }), q is the electric charge of the small charge and r is the distance from the charge.

Now, the power of a number is how many times we multiply that number by itself; we see r appears only once in the equation. So we know the power is 1. But we can see in the equation that k and q are divided by r, which means r is the denominator. This means the power of r is negative (-).

Therefore, the power of r is -1.

A car slows down uniformly from a speed of 22 m/s to rest in 4.0 seconds. How far did it travel in that time
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

\boxed{\sf Distance \ travelled = 44 \ m}

Given:

Initial speed (u) = 22 m/s

Final speed (v) = 0 m/s (Rest)

Time taken (t) = 4 seconds

To Find:

Distance travelled by car (s)

Explanation:

From equation of motion of object moving with uniform acceleration in straight line we have:

\boxed{ \bold{s =  (\frac{v + u}{2} )t}}

By substituting value of v, u & t in the equation we get:

\sf \implies s = ( \frac{0 + 22}{2} ) \times 4 \\  \\  \sf \implies s =  \frac{22}{2}  \times 4 \\  \\  \sf \implies s = 11 \times 4 \\  \\  \sf \implies s = 44 \: m

\therefore

Distance travelled by car (s) = 44 m

Two objects, one of mass m and the other of mass 2m, are dropped from the top of a building. when they hit the ground
Setler79 [48]
They will both hit the ground at the same time because gravitational acceleration for all objects is the same.

A sample of oxygen gas at 25.0°c has its pressure tripled while its volume is halved. What is the final temperature of the gas?
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

447 K

Explanation:

25 C = 25 + 273 = 298 K

Assuming ideal gas, we can apply the ideal gas law

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1} = \frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

T_2 = T_1\frac{P_2}{P_1}\frac{V_2}{V_1}

Since pressure is tripled, then P_2 / P_1 = 3. Volume is halved, then V_2 / V_1 = 0.5

T_2 = 298*3*0.5 = 447 K
