Explanation:

The following are the basic assumptions of the Kinetic Molecular Theory: The volume occupied by the individual particles of a gas is negligible compared to the volume of the gas itself. ... Gas particles are in a constant state of random motion and move in straight lines until they collide with another body.

What is the electric force acting between two charges of -0.0050 C and 0.0050 C that are 0.025 m apart?

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

(A) $-3.6\times 10^8\ N$

Explanation:

Given:

Charge of one particle (q₁) = -0.0050 C

Charge of another particle (q₂) = 0.0050 C

Separation between them (d) = 0.025 m

We know that, from Coulomb's law, electric force acting between two charged particles is given as:

$F_e=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{d^2}\\\\Where,k\to Coulomb's\ constant = 9\times 10^9\ N\cdot m^2/C^2$

Plug in the given values and solve for electric force, $F_e$ . This gives,

$F_e=\frac{(9\times 10^9\ N\cdot m^2/C^2) (-0.0050\ C)(0.0050\ C)}{(0.025\ m)^2}\\\\F_e=\frac{-2.25\times 10^{-4}\times 10^9}{6.25\times 10^{-4}}\ N\\\\F_e=-3.6\times 10^8\ N$

Therefore, option (A) is correct. Negative sign implies that the nature of electric force is attraction.

What is the value of the angle of refraction of light from a crown glass slab when the angle of incidence is 50°? The slab has a

Artemon [7]

The angle of refraction is $30.3^{\circ}$

Explanation:

Refraction is a wave phenomenon that occurs when a light wave passes through the interface between two mediums. When this occurs, the speed and the direction of the light wave change.

We can find the final direction of the refracted light in this problem by applying Snell's law:

$n_i sin \theta_i = n_r sin \theta_r$

where

$n_i, n_r$ are the index of refraction in the first and second medium, respectively

$\theta_i, \theta_r$ are the angle of incidence and refraction, respectively

In this problem, we have:

$n_i = 1.00$ (the first medium is air, which has a refractive index of 1.00)

$n_r = 1.52$ (index of refraction of crown glass)

$\theta=50^{\circ}$ is the angle of incidence

Solving for $\theta_r$ , we find the angle of refraction

$\theta_r = sin^{-1}(\frac{n_i sin \theta_i}{n_r})=sin^{-1}(\frac{(1.00)(sin 50^{\circ})}{1.52})=30.3^{\circ}$

The average human walks at a speed of 5km per hour if your PE teacher asks you to walk for 30 minutes in gym class how far would

Leokris [45]

Answer:

2.5km

Explanation:

Assuming you also walk with the average human walking speed of 5 km/h. We know that speed=distance/time and now making distance the subject, distance is a product of speed and time. The time is 30 minutes, expressed in hours will be 30/60=0.5 hours. Substituting 5km/h for speed and 0.5 hours for time then the diatance covered will be

Distance=5*0.5=2.5 km
