The field is
<em><u>E</u></em> = 1 / (4 pi ε₀) Q / <em><u>R</u></em>² directed radially outward from
the center of the shell.
R is the radius of the spherical shell.
Notice that the field is exactly the same as the field due to a point-charge
with magnitude 'Q' that's located at the center of the sphere.
Answer:
Option D. is correct.
Explanation:
The object's mechanical energy refers to the sum of the potential and kinetic energies of the object. When an object falls, its potential energy (PE) decreases, and its kinetic energy (KE) increases. The increase in kinetic energy is exactly equal to the decrease in potential energy.
Option D. is correct.
1). trajectory
2). person sitting in a chair
3). 490 meters
4). 65 m/s
5). False. The projectile's displacement, velocity, and acceleration have vertical and horizontal components, but the projectile doesn't.
6). False
7). The vertical component of a projectile doesn't change due to gravity, but the vertical components of its displacement, velocity, and acceleration do.
The vertical components do NOT equal the horizontal components.
8). Decreasing if you include the effects of air resistance. Constant if you don't. Gravity has no effect on horizontal velocity.
9). We can't see the simulation. But if the projectile doesn't have jets on it, then as it travels upward, its vertical velocity must decrease, because gravity is trying to not let it get away.
10). We can't see the simulation. But if the projectile is traveling downward, we would call that "falling", and its vertical velocity must increase, because gravity is pulling it downward.
#14 isn't really a Physics problem. It's more of just reading a graph.
A). When speed changes, acceleration is
(change in speed) / (time for the change) .
To be correct about it, acceleration can be positive ... when speed
is increasing ... or it can be negative ... when speed is decreasing.
So, on this graph, there are two periods of acceleration:
From zero to 2 seconds, acceleration = (8 m/s) / (4 sec) = 2 m/s² .
From 10 to 12 seconds, acceleration = (-4 m/s) / (2 sec) = -2 m/s² .
B). From 12 to16 seconds, you can read the speed right from
the graph. It's 4 m/s .
C). From 2 to 10 seconds, the objects speed is a steady 8 m/s.
Covering 8 m/s every second for 8 seconds, it covers 64 meters.
Do you remember that distance is the area under the speed/time
graph? You can see that plainly on this graph. From 2 to 10 sec,
there are 16 blocks. Each block is (2 m/s) high and (2 sec) wide,
so its area is (2 m/s) x (2 sec) = 4 meters. The area of 16 blocks
is (16) x (4 meters) = 64 meters.
====================================
#15.
a). constant velocity on a distance graph is a line that slopes up;
constant velocity on a velocity graph is a horizontal line;
b). positive constant acceleration on a distance graph is a
line that curves up;
positive constant acceleration on a velocity graph is a
straight line that slopes up;
c). "uniformly slowing down to a stop" on a distance graph
is a line that's less and less curved as time goes on, and
eventually reaches the x-axis.
"uniformly slowing down to a stop" on a velocity graph is
a straight line that slopes down, and stops when it reaches
the x-axis.
The statement that best describes an external circuit is "<span>D. The flow of an alternating current switches direction when a generator's terminals change its charge." The main difference between direct and alternating current is the direction of flow. Direct current follows only one direction from negatve to positive, while alternating current changes direction periodically.</span>
