The magnitude of the source charge is 3 μC which generates 4286 N/C of the electric field. Option B is correct.

What does Gauss Law state?

It states that the electric flux across any closed surface is directly proportional to the net electric charge enclosed by the surface.

$Q = \dfrac {ER^2}k$

Where,

$E$ = electric force = 4286 N/C

$k$ = Coulomb constant = $8.99 \times 10^9 \rm\ N m ^2 /C ^2$

$Q\\
$ = charges = ?

$r$ = distance of separation = 2.5 m

Put the values in the formula,

$Q = \dfrac {4286\times 2.5 ^2}{8.99 \times 10^9 }\\\\
Q = 3\rm \ \mu C$

Therefore, the magnitude of the source charge is 3 μC.

A mass attached to a 50.0 cm long string starts from rest and is rotated 40 times in one minute before reaching a final angular

ch4aika [34]

To solve this problem it is only necessary to apply the kinematic equations of angular motion description, for this purpose we know by definition that,

$\theta = \frac{1}{2}\alpha t^2 +\omega_0 t + \theta_0$

Where,

$\theta =$ Angular Displacement

$\alpha =$ Angular Acceleration

$\omega_0 =$ Angular velocity

$\theta_0 =$ Initial angular displacement

For this case we have neither angular velocity nor initial angular displacement, then

$\theta = \frac{1}{2}\alpha t^2$

Re-arrange for $\alpha,$

$\alpha = \frac{2\theta}{t^2}$

Replacing our values,

$\alpha = \frac{2(40rev*\frac{2\pi rad}{1rev})}{60^2}$

$\alpha = 0.139rad/s$

Therefore the ANgular acceleration of the mass is $0.139rad/s^2$

You are standing at the top of a cliff that has a stairstep configuration. There is a vertical drop of 7 m at your feet, then a

Zolol [24]

Answer:

1. v = 6.67 m/s

2. d = 9.54 m

Explanation:

1. To find the horizontal velocity of the rock we need to use the following equation:

$d = v*t \rightarrow v = \frac{d}{t}$

<u>Where</u>:

d: is the distance traveled by the rock

t: is the time

The time can be calculated as follows:

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2d}{g}}$

<u>Where:</u>

g: is gravity = 9.8 m/s²

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2d}{g}} = \sqrt{\frac{2*7 m}{9.8 m/s^{2}}} = 1.20 s$

Now, the horizontal velocity of the rock is:

$v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{8 m}{1.20 s} = 6.67 m/s$

Hence, the initial velocity required to barely reach the edge of the shell below you is 6.67 m/s.

2. To calculate the distance at which the projectile will land, first, we need to find the time:

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2d}{g}} = \sqrt{\frac{2*(7 m + 3 m)}{9.8 m/s^{2}}} = 1.43 s$

So, the distance is:

$d = v*t = 6.67 m/s*1.43 s = 9.54 m$

Therefore, the projectile will land at 9.54 m of the second cliff.

I hope it helps you!

Why does the mass spectrum of Br2 contain three signals whose heights are almost in the ratio of 1:2:1? What are the origins of

Eddi Din [679]

<span>The element bromine has two isotopes: Br-79 and Br-81, with a 50%-50% isotopic abundance. Statistically, 25% of bromine molecules will be Br79-Br79, 25% will be Br81-Br81 and 50% will be Br79-Br81. This is equivalent to a ratio of 1:1:2 or 1:2:1. The peaks in a mass spectrum just like chromatography reflect this relative abundance of different isotopic combinations.</span>

When visiting some countries, you may see a person balancing a load on the head. Explain why the center of mass of the load need

Vinvika [58]

Explanation:

If the center of the load is directly above the vertebrae, there is no torque in the system. This is a good thing so that the vertebrae are not put out of alignment over time. (Of course, this still doesn't prevent compression of the vertebrae over time, which is a possibility.)

What is the momentum of a 5 kg object that has a velocity of 1. 2 m/s? 3. 8 kg â€˘ m/s 4. 2 kg â€˘ m/s 6. 0 kg â€˘ m/s 6. 2 kg â

nevsk [136]

The momentum of a 5kg object that has a velocity of 1.2m/s is 6.0kgm/s.

<h3> MOMENTUM:</h3>

Momentum of a substance is the product of its mass and velocity. That is;

Momentum (p) = mass (m) × velocity (v)

According to this question, an object has a mass of 5kg and velocity of 1.2m/s. The momentum is calculated thus:

Momentum = 5kg × 1.2m/s

Momentum = 6kgm/s.

Therefore, the momentum of a 5kg object that has a velocity of 1.2m/s is 6.0kgm/s.
