How would you change the distance between two charged particles to increase the electric force between them by a factor of 16
Naily [24]

The electrostatic force between two charges is inversely
proportional to the square of the distance between them.

So if you want to multiply the force by, say, ' Q ',
you need to multiply the distance by  ( 1 / √Q ) .

We want to multiply the force by 16, so we need to
multiply the distance by    ( 1 / √16 )  =  ( 1 / 4 ) .

The distance should be changed to  1/4  of what it is now.

A body of mass 20kg initially at rest is subjected to a force of 40m for 15sec. Calculate the change in k.e
Ede4ka [16]

Explanation:

mass(m)=20kg

velocity(v)=d/t=2.67

k.e=?

now,

k.e=1/2mv^2

=1/2*20*(2.67)^2

=71J

A 7950-kg railroad car travels alone on a level frictionless track with a constant speed of 15.0 m/s . A 2950-kg load, initially
Alchen [17]

The new speed of car is 10.9 m/s

<h3 />

According to the principle of momentum conservation, momentum is only modified by the action of forces as they are outlined by Newton's equations of motion; momentum is never created nor destroyed inside a problem domain.

Mass of the railroad car, m₁ = 7950 kg

Mass of the load, m₂ = 2950 kg

It can be assumed as the speed of the car, u₁ = 15 m/s

Initially, it is at rest, u₂ = 0

Let v is the speed of the car. It can be calculated using the conservation of momentum as :

m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 = (m_1 + m_2) v

v =\frac{m_1u_1}{m_1+m_2}

v = \frac{7950*15}{7950+2950}

v= 10.9 m/s

Therefore, the new speed of care is 10.9 m/s

Help with #3 please
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

The answer to your question is va = 8 cm/s, vb = 12.5 cm/s, a = 9 cm/s²

Explanation:

Data

Ta = 0.125 s

Tb = 0.08 s

Δtab = 0.5 s

distance = 1 cm

Process

1.- Calculate va

va = 1/0.125 = 8 cm/s

vb = 1/0.08 = 12.5 cm/s

2.- Calculate Δv

Δv = 12.5 - 8

Δv = 4.5 cm/s

3.- Calculate acceleration

a = Δv / Δt

a = 4.5/0.5

a = 9 cm/s²
