Answer:

The electric potential at the center of the meter stick is 54 KV.

Explanation:

Electric potential (V) is given as:

i.e V = \frac{kq}{r}

Where: k is the Coulomb constant, q is the charge and r is the distance.

Given: q = 3.0 μC = 3.0 x 10^{-6} C, r = 0.5 m

So that,

V = \frac{9*10^{9}*3.0*10^{-6}  }{0.5}

   = \frac{2.7*10^{4} }{0.5}

V = 54000

  = 54 000 volts

The electric potential at the center of the meter stick is 54 KV.

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

A block of mass m begins at rest at the top of a ramp at elevation h with whatever PE is associated with that height. The block slides down the ramp over a distance d until it reaches the bottom of the ramp.

How much of its original total energy (in J) survives as KE when it reaches the ground? m = 9.9 kg h = 4.9 m d = 5 m μ = 0.3 θ = 36.87°

Answer:

the amount of its original total energy (in J) that survives as KE when it reaches the ground will is 358.975 J

Explanation:

Given that;

m = 9.9 kg

h = 4.9 m

d = 5 m

μ = 0.3

θ = 36.87°

Now from conservation of energy, the energy is;

Et = mgh

we substitute

Et = 9.9 × 9.8 × 4.9

= 475.398 J

Also the loss of energy i

E_loss = (umg cosθ) d

we substitute

E_loss  = 0.3 × 9.9 × 9.8 × cos36.87°  × 5

= 116.423 J

so the amount of its original total energy (in J) that survives as KE when it reaches the ground will be

E = Et - E_loss

E = 475.398 J - 116.423 J

E = 358.975 J

Waves that move the particles of the medium parallel to the direction in which the waves are traveling are called
Nikolay [14]

1. a. longitudinal waves.

There are two types of waves:

- Transverse waves: in transverse waves, the oscillations of the wave occur in a direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave

- Longitudinal waves: in longitudinal waves, the oscillations of the waves occur parallel to the direction in which the waves are travelling.

So, these types of waves are called longitudinal waves.


2. d. a medium

There are two types of waves:

- Electromagnetic waves: these waves are produced by the oscillations of electric and magnetic field, and they can travel both in a medium and also in a vacuum (they do not need a medium to propagate)

- Mechanical waves: these waves are produced by the oscillations of the particles in a medium, so they need a medium to propagate - therefore, the correct choice is d. a medium


3. a. AM/FM radio

Analogue signals consist of continuous signals, which vary in a continuous range of values. On the contrary, digital signals consist of discrete signals, which can assume only some discrete values. For AM and FM radios, signals are transmitted by using analogue signals.

Do the data for the first part of the experiment support or refute the first hypothesis? Be sure to explain your answer and incl
Sphinxa [80]

The data for the first part of the experiment support the first hypothesis. As the force applied to the cart increased, the acceleration of the cart increased. Since the increase in the applied force caused the increase in the cart's acceleration, force and acceleration are directly proportional to each other, which is in accordance with Newton's second law.

A boy drags a suitcase along the ground with a force of 100 N. If the frictional force opposing the motion of the suitcase is 50
stira [4]
Fortunately, 'force' is a vector.  So if you know the strength and direction
of each force, you can easily addum up and find the 'resultant' (net) force.

When we talk in vectors, one newton forward is the negative of
one newton backward.   Hold that thought, while I slog through
the complete solution of the problem.


            (100 N forward) plus (50 N backward)

        =  (100 N forward) minus (50 N forward)

        =           50 N forward .

That's it.
Is there any part of the solution that's not clear ?
