Answer: 1.51 km

Explanation:

<u>Coulomb's Law:</u> The electrostatic force between two charge particles Q: and Q2 is directly proportional to product of magnitude of charges and inversely proportional to square of separation distance between them.

Or,   \vec{F}=k \frac{Q_{1} Q_{2}}{r^{2}}

Where Q1 and Q2 are magnitude of two charges and r is distance between them:

<u>Given:</u>

Q1 = Charge near top of cloud = 48.8 C

Q2 = Charge near the bottom of cloud = -41.7 C

Force between charge at top and bottom of cloud (i.e. between Q: and Q2) (F) = 7.98 x 10^6N

k = 8.99 x 109Nm^2/C^2

<u>So,</u>

\begin{aligned}&7.98 \times 10^{6}=\left(8.99 \times 10^{9} \mathrm{Nm}^{2} / \mathrm{C}^{2}\right) \frac{48.8 \mathrm{C} \times 41.7 \mathrm{C}}{\mathrm{r}^{2}} \\&r=\sqrt{\frac{1.8294 \times 10^{13}}{7.98 \times 10^{6}}}=1.514  \times 10^{3} \mathrm{~m}=1.51 \mathrm{~km}\end{aligned}

Therefore, the separation between the two charges (r) = 1.51 km

What is the voltage of the electrochemical cell written as: Cu(s) | Cu2+(aq) || Mg2+(aq) | Mg(s)?
erma4kov [3.2K]
Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. Feel free to ask more questions.  
<span><span>The best and most correct answer among the choices provided by the question is  </span>B.-2.71 V.</span>  
Mg2+(aq) + 2e- -> Mg(s) E=-2.37 V  

Cu2+(aq) + 2e- -> Cu(s) E =+ 0.34 V  

Since Cu is acting as the anode, the equation needs to be reversed.  

Cu(s) -> Cu2+(aq) + 2e- E =- 0.34 V  

Ecell= -2.37 V+ (- 0.34 V) = -2.71 V   <span><span>

A truck travels up a hill with a 5.7° incline. The truck has a constant speed of 22 m/s. What is the horizontal component of the
tester [92]

Answer:

The horizontal component of the velocity is 21.9 m/s.

Explanation:

Please see the attached figure for a better understanding of the problem.

Notice that the vector v and its x and y-components (vx and vy) form a right triangle. Then, we can use trigonometry to find the magnitude of vx, the horizontal component of the velocity.

To find vx, let´s use the following trigonometric rule of right triangles:

cos α = adjacent / hypotenuse

cos 5.7° = vx / 22 m/s

22 m/s · cos 5.7° = vx

vx = 21.9 m/s

The horizontal component of the velocity is 21.9 m/s.

An object is moving at a constant velocity of 10 m/s for 5 seconds. What is
german

initial velocity (u)=0m/s

final velocity (v)=10m/s

time( t)=5s

acceleration (a)=v-u÷t

acceleration (a)=10-0÷5

acceleration (a)=10÷5

acceleration (a)=2

therefore acceleration (a)=2m/s
