Answer:

7.9 x 10^21 pound-force

Explanation:

The average distance between the Earth and sun is 150 trillion meters, or 1.5 x 10^11 meters. The mass of the sun is 1.99 x 10^30 kilograms, while the Earth weighs in at 6.0 x 10^24 kilograms. The gravitational constant is 6.67 x 10^-11 meter^3 / (kilogram - second^2). So the Earth and sun pull on each other with a force equal to 3.52 x 10^22 newtons. The newton is a unit of force equal to a kilogram-meter/second^2. One newton is equal to 0.22 of the rarely used English unit called pound-force, so 3.52 x 10^22 newtons is 7.9 x 10^21 pound-force.

Car B starts at point X and moves clockwise around a circular track at a constant rate of 2 mph. Ten hours later, Car A leaves f

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

20.96 h

Explanation:

The perimeter of the track is 2*pi*r = 20pi miles

In 10 hours, car B would have moved 20miles. So, when Car A leaves from point X, car B is 20pi - 20 miles from point X counter-clockwise and car A.

From here, we can express the distance of A from X like this:

xa = 3t

And the distance of B would be:

xb = 20pi - 20 - 2t

The time t where they would passed each other and put 12 miles between them would be the one where xa - xb is equal to 12:

xa - xb = 12

3t - (20pi - 20 - 2t) = 12

5t = 20 pi - 8

t = (20pi - 8)/5 = 10.96 h

Remember to add this value to the 10 hours car B had already been racing:

t = 20.96h

The force F⃗ pulling the string is constant; therefore the magnitude of the angular acceleration α of the wheel is constant for

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

The answer is " $\boxed{\boxed{\omega = \sqrt{\frac{2fd}{kmr^2}}}}$ "

Explanation:

$\to d= r \theta \\\\ \to \theta =\frac{d}{r}\\\\\to \omega^{r} - \omega_{0}^{r} = 2 \alpha \theta\\\\\to \omega^{r} = 2 \alpha \theta - \omega_{0}^{r} \\\\\to \omega^{r} = 2 (\frac{F}{Kmr}) \frac{d}{r}\\\\\to \omega = \sqrt{\frac{2fd}{kmr^2}}$

If an atom has an atomic number of 2, it will be stable with 2 electrons in its valence shell. Group of answer choices True Fals

torisob [31]

Answer: True

Explanation:

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons or the number of electrons that are present in an electrically neutral atom.

Atomic number = Number of protons = number of electrons = 2

Electronic configuration represents the total number of electrons that a neutral element contains. We add all the superscripts to know the number of electrons in an atom.

The electronic configuration will be $1s^2$

As its duplet is already complete and it has noble gas configuration , it is stable with 2 valence electrons.

An electron experiences a magnetic force with a magnitude of 4.90×10−15 n when moving at an angle of 60.0 ∘ with respect to a ma

Leya [2.2K]

Missing questions: "find the speed of the electron".

Solution:
the magnetic force experienced by a charged particle in a magnetic field is given by
$F=qvB \sin \theta$
where
q is the particle charge
v its velocity
B the magnitude of the magnetic field
$\theta$ the angle between the directions of v and B.

Re-arranging the formula, we find:
$v= \frac{F}{qB \sin \theta}$
and by substituting the data of the problem (the charge of the electron is $q=1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C$ ), we find the velocity of the electron:
$v= \frac{F}{qB \sin \theta}= \frac{4.90 \cdot 10^{-15}N}{(1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C)(3.70 \cdot 10^{-3} T)(\sin 60^{\circ})}=9.56 \cdot 10^6 m/s$
