The electrostatic force between two charges is 3. 8 N. If the distance between the two charges is tripled, what is the new elect

Answer:

F = K Q1 Q2 / R^2         force between 2 charges separated by R

F2 / F1 = (R1 / R2^2)    dividing equations

F2 / F1 = (R1 / 3 R1)^2 = 1/3^2 = 1/9

The force would be reduced by a factor of 9

3.8 / 9 N = .42 N

A cart on a horizontal, linear track has a fan attached to it. The cart is positioned at one end of the track, and the fan is tu
kompoz [17]

Answer:

a

  F = 0.0566 \  N  

b

   t =  6.147 \  s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The distance travel in  4.22 s is  s =  1.44 \ m

     The mass of the cart plus the fan is  m  =  350 \  g =  0.35 \  kg

Generally from kinematic equation we have that

        s =  ut + \frac{1}{2}  * a * t^2

Here  u is the initial  velocity with value  u =  0 \ m/s

So  

         1.44=  0 * t + \frac{1}{2}  *  a * 4.22^2      

=>      a =  0.1617 \  m/s^2

Generally the net force is  

         F = m * a

=>      F = 0.35  *  0.1617  

=>      F = 0.0566 \  N  

Gnerally the new mass of the cart plus the fan is  M  =  656 \  g  = 0.656 \  kg

    The distance considered is s_1 = 1.63 \  m

     Generally the new acceleration of the cart is mathematically represented as

        F =  M  *  a_1

=>      a_1 =  \frac{F}{M}

=>      a_1 =  \frac{0.0566}{0.656}

=>      a_1 = 0.08628 \  m/s^2

Gnerally from kinematic equation we have

          s =  ut + \frac{1}{2} *  a_1 *  t ^2

Here u  is the initial velocity and the value is zero because it started from rest  

=>       1.63 =  0 * t + \frac{1}{2} *  0.08628*  t ^2

=>        t =  6.147 \  s

If a rat with a mass of 2.67 kg is being held at a height of 4.83 m, what is its potential energy?
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

128.96J

Explanation:

Take g = 10m/s²

Ep = mgh

= 2.67 × 10 × 4.83 = 128.96 J

What is the magnitude of the net force acting on a 2.0 x10^3 kilogram car?
Tatiana [17]
Answer:  
Acceleration= final velocity - initial velocity / time
 = (15 - 0)/ 5
 = 3 m/s^2
 Force = mass X acceleration
 = 2 X 10^3 X 3
 = 6 X 10^3 N
