<h2>Diagonal of circle </h2>

Explanation:

As the skateboarder wants to cross the play ground . The surface is rough .

As we know , the force of friction is non-conservative force . Thus work is required against this force .

We have formula:

work done = Force x distance (in one direction )

Te force applied cannot be changed , so he is to decrease the distance .

In case of circle , diameter is the minimum distance . Thus he is supposed to move along it .

A 1.0-μm-diameter oil droplet (density 900 kg/m3) is negatively charged with the addition of 39 extra electrons. It is released

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

$6.75\mu C/m^2$

Explanation:

We are given that

Diameter,d= $1\mu m=1\time 10^{-6} m$

$1\mu m=10^{-6} m$

Radius,r= $\frac{d}{2}=\frac{1}{2}\times 10^{-6}=0.5 \times 10^{-6} m$

Density, $\rho=900kg/m^3$

Total number of electrons,n=39

Charge on electron = $1.6\times 10^{-19} C$

Total charge= $q=ne=39\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}=62.4\times 10^{-19} C$

Distance,s=2mm= $2\times 10^{-3} m$

Mass = $density\times volume=900\times \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3=900\times \frac{4}{3}\pi(0.5\times 10^{-6})^3=4.7\times 10^{-16} kg$

Initial velocity,u=0

Final speed,v=4.5 m/s

$v^2-u^2=2as$

$(4.5)^2-0=2a(2\times 10^{-3})$

$20.25=4a\times 10^{-3}$

$a=\frac{20.25}{4\times 10^{-3}}=5062.5m/s^2$

Force,F=ma

$qE=ma$

$q(\frac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0})=ma$

$\sigma=\frac{2\epsilon_0ma}{q}=\frac{2\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 4.7\times 10^{-16}\times 5062.5}{62.4\times 10^{-19}}$

$\epsilon_0=8.85\times 10^{-12}$

$\sigma=6.75\times 10^{-6}C/m^2=6.75\mu C/m^2$

How does a nuclear power plant produce energy

nalin [4]

The steam then turns turbines to produce electricity. The difference is that nuclear plants do not burn anything. Instead, they use uranium fuel, consisting of solid ceramic pellets, to produce electricity through a process called fission. best i can do hope it helps

Maggie walks to a friends house which is exactly 1500 meters due South. It takes Maggie 45 minutes for the walk and Maggie has t

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

Explanation below

Explanation:

Speed vs Velocity

These are two similar physical concepts. They only differ in the fact that the velocity is vectorial, i.e. having magnitude and direction, and the speed is scalar, just the magnitude regardless of the direction. They are strongly related to the concepts of displacement and distance, which are the vectorial and scalar versions of the space traveled by a moving object. The velocity can be computed as

$\displaystyle \vec v=\frac{\vec r}{t}$

Where $\vec r$ is the position vector and t is the time. The speed is

$\displaystyle v=\frac{d}{t}$

To compute $\vec r$ , we only need to know the initial and final positions and subtract them. To compute d, we need to add all the distances traveled by the object, regardless of their directions.

Maggie walks to a friend's house, located 1500 meters from her place. The initial position is 0 and the final position is 1500 m. The displacement is

$\vec r=1500\ m \text{ to the south}$

and the velocity is

$\displaystyle \vec v=\frac{1500}{45}=33.33\ m/s\text{ to the south}$

Now, we know Maggie had to make three different turns of direction to finally get there. This means her distance is more than 1500 m. Let's say she walked 500 m in all the turns, then the distance is

$d=1500+500=2000\ m$

If she took the same time to reach her destiny, she would have to run faster, because her average speed is

$\displaystyle v=\frac{2000}{45}=44.44\ m/s$
